Child Of The Phoenix

The Rebirth of the Purple Phoenix

In a world ravaged by chaos and loneliness, John's life lacked purpose and meaning. The constant protests outside his apartment mirrored the turmoil within him, their noise a haunting reminder of the unrest he couldn't escape. Lost in unemployment and isolation, John sought refuge in virtual realms, where he could momentarily escape reality. Yet, his existence felt empty, like an abandoned canvas waiting for a painter's touch. With each passing day, he robotically navigated life, seeking something more. In an unexpected twist of events, a sudden explosion shattered his life, leaving him floating in a mysterious void. As panic threatened to consume him, an otherworldly voice offered him an enigmatic opportunity—to rewrite his destiny, to embrace a higher purpose. With unwavering determination, John accepted the offer, and a blinding light transported him to a new reality. His consciousness had returned, but his senses felt foreign, devoid of sight. Instead, he sensed momentous events unfolding—a significant figure being born, destined to become the emperor of a crumbling empire. John VIII Palaiologos, a historical figure tasked with confronting the mighty Ottoman Empire, was now the role he inhabited. As he grappled with his newfound identity and the weight of his responsibilities, he realized that his journey had just begun. The fate of an empire rested on his shoulders, and he was determined to shape history in a way that would bring hope and transformation to his world. --------------------------------------------- [Author Note:] Updates: 3-4 chapters/week *Miss me? Don't be, I'll be much busier than last time, but do try to write, somehow, I might be a tad below my chapters expectation for a couple of weeks depending on how busy I am.* Cheers!

Child of Fate: The Enforcer

From the beginning of time, the two clans, Deva clan and Asura clan waged war against each other, where Deva's claimed to be on the righteous side whereas the Asuras were deemed to be evil as they committed atrocious acts of butchering innocent lives, meddling in the auspicious events of sages, etc., and staking claim on the throne of Deva Lok. The war has destroyed lives and various Lok's, in the end the three Supreme Gods (God Brahma the Creator, God Vishnu the Preserver and God of Gods who is also known as the Mahadev or God Shiv the Destroyer) had to intervene to stop the senseless war providing the much-needed relief to the common populace of God Realm. All the Deva Clan Members along with Devaraj Indra to the Tridev: "Namostu te Vedagarbha, Sarvavidya Pradayaka" (Salutations to the one who holds the Vedas and grants all knowledge), "Om Namo Narayanaya" (Salutations to Lord Narayana), "Om Namah Shivaya" (Salutations to Shiva, the auspicious one). While the Asuras in the leadership of their leader and Guru, Guru Shukracharya performed Shastanga Namaskara as they did worship God Brahma but for the boons he will give and the Asuras had a particular dislike for God Vishnu as he favors the cosmic balance and is on the righteous side i.e., Devas side but they still showed the much needed respect for one of the supreme beings and Asuras were devoted believer of Mahadev as he is the only one impartial among the three supreme gods. God Vishnu said "Devaraj Indra why must you continue this senseless war with the Asuras? You are King of Gods, King of Swarg Lok then what more do you need from the Asuras when they are confined to their Paataal Lok." Devaraj Indra said with respect "Lord Vishnu it was them who were creating chaos among the sages intervening in the sage's meditation and destroying livestock, so I had to confront them." Hearing Devaraj Indra slandering the Asuras in front of the Three Supreme Gods while not mentioning the mistreatment of Asuras done by Devas, the Asura Guru Shukracharya too said " Mahadev you have to uphold justice for the Asuras, we were just banished to the Paataal Lok from the beginning while the Devas got to rule the Swarg Lok. Why can't we Asuras get the same treatment as they do? And this war was started by the Asuras and Devas jointly but only we are blamed here." Hearing the Asura Guru Shukracharya, the Three Supreme Gods were too taken back as they too were not able to judge them with full impartiality so, Mahadev decided on a solution and solemnly announced among the Asuras and Devas "Very soon we Three Supreme Gods will bring into being a new force which will be born far away from here among the humans and his very journey will shape him to be the bearer of justice for all of the creation. He will be the embodiment of impartial justice whether to the Asuras or Devas for he will judge the being on the basis of his karma so I will warn all of you now that you should be careful of what karma you sow as you will soon be dealt with your karmafal." And so, the war of Asuras and Devas came to a pause. This is the story of a boy whose destiny was written before he was born, his very being was conceptualized but the Supreme Gods as he was born with the fraction of the three Supreme Gods. **It's my second novel as the first one is on pause as I am out of further plot for that one but this will be a blast because it is based on my cultural myth but there will be some changes so you can say it's my original work just taken some inspiration from the myths so whoever is reading and if he knows about the original history then don't criticize me for making the changes as I am writing a novel and I, in my full conscience am very respectful of the Gods and our culture.**
