Quotes From The Long Goodbye

The world is dying. The gods are silent. Magic is but a whispered myth, buried under centuries of war, ignorance, and decay. Once vibrant empires that harnessed the raw power of the world are now crumbling, their ruins lost beneath moss and dust. It has been thousands of years since the last known spell was cast, and most believe magic never truly existed at all. Only charlatans, lunatics, or fanatics speak of its return. But something stirs. At the borders of civilization, in forgotten woods and the blackened hearts of mountains, creatures of myth are seen again. Strange lights dance across the sky. Whispered prayers once thought useless begin to echo back. Magic is waking up. Slowly. Painfully. But before it returns in full, blood will paint the earth. (Low Magic, Gritty Medieval)

As the Arctic ice caps crumble under catastrophic global warming, the ancient "Pandora Virus" — buried for millennia — unleashes hell on Earth. Chen Mo, a history student in a drowsy lecture hall, watches civilization collapse into blood-soaked chaos: the infected rise as ravenous horrors, cities become graveyards, and humanity’s darkest instincts erupt in the ruins. Armed with a fire axe, Chen Mo battles through his zombified campus with medical prodigy Lin Wei, campus beauty Su Qing, and other survivors. Betrayal and sacrifice shatter their fragile sanctuary, forcing Chen Mo on a desperate quest to find his family. In a warlord-controlled bunker, he discovers his parents died protecting the weak in a mutant-infested quarantine zone. Inheriting their resolve, Chen Mo transforms from survivor to guardian, forging the bunker into a beacon of hope called "New Haven." But its light attracts the genocidal cult "The Purifiers," igniting holy war. To reach humanity’s last stronghold — the subterranean fortress "Kunlun Base" — Chen Mo leads an elite squad across the wasteland. Through sand-choked ruins, slaver pits, and the Purifiers’ mobile fortresses, they recruit allies: a survivalist hunter, a mechanic duo, and "Shadow," a wanderer marked by secrets. Each victory comes at a cost. Within Kunlun’s ordered utopia, Chen Mo uncovers deadlier threats: factional power struggles, unethical virus-weapon experiments, and the cult’s "Prophet" who commands the infected. When intel reveals Pandora’s origin lies in an Arctic ice vault, Chen Mo launches a suicidal expedition. In the frozen lab ruins, he confronts the Prophet — a virus-human hybrid — and sacrifices comrades to destroy the hive. The "Primordial Strain" he retrieves could be humanity’s cure... or ultimate doom. As Kunlun’s leadership fractures and New Haven simmers with discord, a new power emerges from the West: the technocratic dystopia "Eden." The long night endures. Every echo of human survival etches a new epoch in the darkness.

In a city that remembers her as the runaway bride, Zara is about to rewrite the ending.

"Only the fearless heart, can soar to the heavens." In Cadia Riverlands, a young boy emerges from the ashes of a razed village, clutching the shattered remains of a spear. Orphaned, nameless, and driven only by instinct, he survives a brutal trek to the legendary Tianyin Swordmaster Sect—a secluded martial order that venerates the sword and rejects all else. Taken in as an exception, the boy is renamed Zhao Long, a name invoking the silent watch of the dragon. Five years pass, and Zhao Long remains an outsider, training alone with the weapon his soul seems unwilling to let go—the spear. To the Sect, it is a relic of foot soldiers, a crude tool far beneath the elegance of the blade. But Zhao Long persists. In secret, in silence, he carves his own path—movement by movement, form by form—guided not by teaching but by an echo deep within his body, one even he does not understand. Scorned by peers, overlooked by masters, he remains steadfast. One night, as moonlight bathes the mountain, a cloud in the shape of a dragon passes overhead. It sees him. It remembers. And so begins the story of a boy who defied tradition… …a warrior who would awaken the forgotten power of the spear. …a dragon yet to rise.

Glass shattered, champagne soaking my shoes. I grabbed the bar, my legs giving out, as Bella's gaze locked on mine. Her eyes were cold, hostile, like I was a stranger she despised.
