Which Is The Most Likely Setting For A Gothic

Which way is North? How do you reach North without seeing? His world is darkness, but not silence; for the staff in his hand sings. Curved from an ancient tree whose roots drink from hidden warmth beneath the snow, it hums a melody only he can hear, a compass tuned to the heartbeat of the North. He navigates the world searching for his mother's homeland. The land he seeks is no barren waste. Rivers slice through ice like liquid sapphire, their music harmonizing with his staff. Towers of crystal and light pierce the horizon; spires built by forgotten hands, refracting auroras into swords of color. Here, cold is not an end but a crucible. Fruit trees, heavy with pomegranates glowing like embers, thrive where others would perish. Their sweetness is earned. Their roots know secrets. This is Frostsprite, where the land is like a fable.

Leon was your typical guy, perceived as weak in his school because his skills hadn't awakened, even though they usually did at the coming of age. He attended the prestigious Milham's Magic Knight Academy, where snagging the top spot meant automatic entry into the esteemed position of a Magic Knight in the country. Unfortunately, Leon found himself in the lower caste, labeled the most useless student. To top it off, he was tossed into a class that served as a sanctuary for oddballs and delinquents. Yet, he couldn't care less, as becoming a Magic Knight wasn't his goal. Everything shifted when he crossed paths with Shredica, a woman hell-bent on becoming a Magic Knight at any cost. Observing Leon's lack of ambition and his apparent detachment from the academy's pursuits, Shredica saw an opportunity. She decided to exploit him as a pawn in her ascent through the academy's hierarchy. Yet, unbeknownst to Shredica, Leon was not the complacent, unremarkable figure she presumed him to be. *** Join the discord! https://discord.gg/gt4CDGkpEM

#r18 #smut #No-Yuri #No-NTR "I Died for my own happiness, I died because of my selfishness, I died because I feared living without her again, But I died only after I killed the Gods." Rael, the Demon King, died. He was born from the Great Darkness and was given the name of 'The Last Demon.' Rael's birth was the beginning of the world's demise and the end of all life in it. His birth was the start of his loneliness, which would eventually become the cause of his madness and destruction. But when that girl showed up, he felt the loneliness slowly fade away. The girl, with a smile so kind, became the first one to look at him without any trace of fear or disgust. That girl's smile, the way she talked to him, and her eyes full of genuine affection... they were all he needed to become the person he was. He would never let anyone take her away. She was his everything, and no one could separate him from her. But... "Why!" 'It should've been fine.' 'We should've lived happily together.' 'Yet why...!' "Why she has to sacrifice herself for me, when she was the one who was supposed to live a happy life?" "Why she had to give the future we could've shared together, just for my sake?" Those were his last words as he died fighting the Gods, but he knew deep inside his heart that he wouldn't be able to see her again. And yet... "Where am I?"

Some of my ideas for books, settings, world systems and other things that might be useful for your books that I wish to share.

What if you woke up inside the world of your friend’s novel—only to realize you weren’t the hero? Terumi Kuro was perfectly fine with his average life. Average grades, average looks, average everything. The only thing not so average? His secretly talented upperclassman, Sayuki Mizuno—a webnovel author whose work has gained a reasonable amount of following since its release. Life was pretty much predictable until Sayuki mysteriously vanishes without a trace. Two weeks after she vanished, Terumi gets transported into her novel’s world and no, he's not the overpowered protagonist or a first rate villain—he's a background character... An Extra. You know, the kind that dies before anyone even remembers their name? Armed with nothing but his knowledge of future events and a suspicious text from Sayuki. Terumi has to navigate a world of magic, technology, danger, and slightly overpowered main characters. Oh, and did i mention he’s stuck attending the same academy where everyone’s so busy stoping bad guys and dealing with politics they barely notice their cafeteria food sucks? "If there’s one thing worse than being trapped in a novel, it’s realizing the author might be as clueless of the situation as you are" ~ Kiel Selfort. ___________________________________ This is my very first attempt at writing a novel and i dont know if it'll be any good. What I do know is it’s got magic, techology, snark, and just enough plot to keep you wondering if I have any idea what I’m doing (spoiler: I don’t).

The stunning female general has been reborn and is determined to become the nemesis of men. Hey hey, that iceberg man, it's you who's torturing me. Don't think that just because you have a noble status and a pretty face, I'll be soft hearted. Who else is that guy, with peach blossom eyes squinting and idle all day long? Don't think I owe you a favor, just stick to me like an acorn candy. On the left is a reborn concubine, on the right is a time traveling witch, and there are also close friends who like to pretend to be little white flowers. If you have any tricks, feel free to use them! I have the Thirty Six Stratagems in my hands, I have them all in the world! I am a girl, who am I afraid of?
