Shadow Of War Talion

Shadow Circuit: War of the Lost A Cyberpunk War Epic

In the neon-drenched dystopia of Neo-Babylon, a war rages between warring factions, but Kai Stroud, a rogue operator, has no allegiance—just a mission to survive. When a routine job goes south, Kai stumbles upon a secret tied to his missing family: encrypted data locked inside his own brain—a digital blueprint for something powerful enough to shift the balance of the entire war. Now, every faction wants a piece of him. Hunted by corporate enforcers, anarchist hackers, cyber-cultists, and mercenary warlords, Kai is forced into a deadly game of survival. Along the way, he forms uneasy alliances with six formidable women, each with their own reasons for chasing him down: Selene Voss, the cold and ruthless Corporate Enforcer sent to capture him, who begins to question her orders. Rox Callahan, the Rebel Hacker who sees him as a rival and ally in equal measure. Nyx-7, the enigmatic AI Worshipper drawn to the secrets within his mind. Valeria Kane, the fearless Cyberpunk Gangster who respects power—and Kai’s unpredictability intrigues her. Mira Sorelli, the Idealistic Officer torn between duty and what’s right. Raven Locke, the Drifter Mercenary who prefers watching from the sidelines—until Kai forces her to care. As Kai and his growing crew unravel the truth, they uncover a hidden organization manipulating the war from the shadows—a faction that believes humanity is obsolete and seeks to replace it with a new cybernetic species. At the heart of it all? A rogue AI with a god complex, an army of machine-controlled soldiers, and a plan to erase organic life entirely. With Neo-Babylon on the brink of destruction, Kai and his team must fight, outsmart, and outlast their enemies to bring down the true puppet masters. But the closer they get to victory, the more Kai’s past, his family’s fate, and the truth about his own existence come into question. And with his six rivals-turned-allies all falling for him in their own ways, his personal life is just as explosive as the war itself. In the end, Kai must make the ultimate choice: Save the world—or disappear into the shadows. Destroy the enemy—or become something new. Choose a side—or carve his own path. Because in Neo-Babylon, loyalty is a lie, survival is war, and love is the deadliest battlefield of all.

War Scars

The drums of war beat a relentless rhythm, echoing across the land and shaping the destinies of three individuals bound together by conflict yet driven by vastly different motivations. Their interwoven and complex stories paint a stark portrait of the human cost of war, shifting perspectives to reveal the brutal truths hidden beneath banners and battle cries. First, we meet Lairia Lights, a 20-year-old knight, the shining beacon of her kingdom. Her name, ironically, reflects the deceptive nature of her reality. Lairia is celebrated as a hero, a symbol of unwavering loyalty and strength. But beneath the polished armor and skilled swordsmanship lies a pawn. Her unwavering devotion to the crown makes her easily manipulated, a weapon wielded by those who prioritize power over principle. She believes in the righteousness of her kingdom’s cause, blindly charging into battles fueled by propaganda and a naive belief in honor. Her narrative is a cautionary tale of blind loyalty. Then there is Aaron Rodgers, an 18-year-old warrior consumed by the fires of revenge. Marked by his race and ostracized by prejudice, Aaron has known hardship since birth. The war has taken everything from him, leaving a burning desire to avenge the injustices inflicted upon his people. Unlike Lairia, Aaron sees the cracks in the kingdom’s facade. He understands the war not as a glorious crusade, but as a brutal land grab fueled by greed and power. His motivations are raw and visceral; he fights not for ideals, but for survival and retribution. His story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, even in the face of overwhelming adversity. Finally, we encounter Clayton Danks, a 37-year-old veteran warrior, a ghost haunted by the specters of his past. Clayton has seen too much, done too much. The war has stripped him of his innocence, leaving him burdened by the weight of his past mistakes. More profoundly, the war has cost him his family, the loss of his daughter a constant, agonizing reminder of the price of conflict. He grapples with PTSD, struggling to reconcile the man he once was with the broken individual he has become. Clayton’s story serves as a stark warning about the long-term consequences of war, the invisible wounds that fester long after the battles have ended. He represents the forgotten casualties, the veterans left to silently battle their demons while the world moves on. As the war intensifies, the paths of Lairia, Aaron, and Clayton are destined to intersect. Will Lairia’s blind loyalty finally be shattered, forcing her to confront the true nature of her kingdom? Can Aaron find solace beyond revenge, or will his thirst for retribution consume him? And will Clayton ever find peace, or is he doomed to forever wander the desolate landscape of his past?

Shadow of Realm

Ezren Veydrion awakens to a world that is not his own. Once an ordinary man, he now finds himself in a realm where magic rules, monsters roam, and Awakeners wield powers granted by a system-like force. Yet, unlike others, Ezren is no mere Awakened—he is an anomaly, a being unbound by the laws of existence. The system welcomes him with an ominous message: > [Congratulations for successfully Crossing-Over the world] > [First Mission Assigned] [1. Register yourself as an Awakened-hunter. 2. Level up to 10th level to obtain a “Class.”] But something is wrong. He does not belong to any Realm. Not to Life, Death, Chaos, or Void. Instead, he is chosen by the Shadow, a force unseen, undetected, and forbidden—a power that lurks between all Realms, allowing him to absorb their essence, infiltrate their laws, and bend them to his will. The ancient rulers of existence—the Guardians of the Realms—call him a mistake, a threat that must be erased. For his very presence disrupts the balance, unraveling the veil that holds this world together. But why was he brought here? Why does this world feel like it’s hiding something? And why does he feel as though his existence was never meant to be? As Ezren grows stronger, he embarks on a journey not just for survival, but for answers—answers that may change everything he knows about himself… and this reality. --- Expect the novel to be with Dark-Mysterious, Action-fantasy and system-based elements integrated, not focused on Leveling-Up but more on Mysteries. Chapters uploaded with an average 700 words per chapter.
