"Heavy is the head that wears the crown" Ephemera: Nothing is permanent, flowers that bloomed will die in a matter of weeks, before the trees leaf out and shade them. Everything is passing and precious. No empire lasts forever, no dynasty continues unbroken. All that matters is whether we did what we could with the life that was given to us. Yudhishthira. Bheem. Arjun. Nakul. Sahadev. The five famous sons of pandu. An abandoned brother. An unprecedented sister. Traitors. A burning palace. Poison. Humiliation. Misconceptions. Betrayals. What if you had to pick between your siblings who would follow you to death or the love of your life? Who would you pick? Dhriti, the daughter of death. Draupadi, the daughter of fire. The dying embers of a fading fire. Fire and ash never mix, do they? But maybe, just maybe, they can change something and save the five brothers. Or will they scorch anything they touch? "I was ready to die for you, but never realized that it was you who will kill me." A traitor only becomes one if their plot is discovered. The imposition of guilt means nothing to those who feign loyalty. Then, with their own hand writing history, such traitors may wear the clothes of patriots. ~~~~ Join this beautiful journey of finding trust again, of reaching depths unknown, unrevealed truths being revealed, injustice at its perk, love turns to betrayal- an impact that ripples through time . For eternity is ephemeral at best. ~~~~~~ Cover by @Nightfall_21

If I could overcome these challenges, wouldn't my life be saved later? "I fell in love with you!" So please spare me!

~Your typical high school story. A girl still trying to find her way into the world and happens to come across a boy. This player boy that she has no interest in seems to sweep her away. And that's when you find out you're not as bad or as good as you thought you were. And all the rumors of this boy being a bad boy is really the opposite...or is this actually NOT a typical high school story?... ~~~~~ 16-year-old girl, Nina Haden, who is a Badass to the world, but a goody-good at heart and very clever, goes through the struggle of growing up in a typical small town. There are deep secrets within her that she hides from the world, but she barely knows what they are anymore since she's been hiding them for so long, she's almost forgetting. Can she find them again? And be who she really is meant to be? Or does she have to get broken, or can she love to find them? Struggling to find out the answer of 'who she is,' she pushes everyone away from her, ignoring who she is and not listening to the advice from others. But against all odds, there's only one person that does stick with her, someone that surprises her and loves her, someone not in a million years she thought would stay. Let's hope she doesn't push this person away too... ~~~~~~ __ Showing: "A typical life is never really a typical life " -- _________________ Cover made by: @EleanorIslington2022 some edits by @taicardi _________________ I reserve the right to this story and these characters and plot.

People never expected to wake up just to fight for their survival. The worlds destroyed. A plague going around that turns people into flesh eating zombies.

So, if you get captured by them, well say goodbye to living. They think everyone's infected. The games. Thats what they called them. Games to get rid of people. No one knows who the so-called government are. All they know is that if you don't participate you die. And everyone you love is killed. A prophecy made to save the planet from destruction. A boy and girl. Life or death. Survival. Pain and betrayal. Enemies to lovers. One bound to save the planet the other bound to destroy it. A pair made in heaven or hell. Who knows? Faced with death, romance, and a fight to the death to become queen? Oh this is going to be one hell of a story.

She even vowed to never fall in love again. Unfortunately, her vow was thrown into the gutter when her heart fluttered for someone again, this time she wasn't ready to get rejected and turned it into a mission to find a solution or cure to her ill-fated love life.

Maki Zenin is a ruthless jujutsu sorcerer. Having lost the love of her life, she has turned cold to the "concept of love" and doesn't encourage feelings. She sleeps around and when morning comes, she forgets the name of the girl she slept with. Niji Gushiken is the dictionary definition of a shy girl, compliant with society's expectations of her. The only thing unconventional about her is that she's a size 16 woman, whose goal in life is to become the prima ballerina of Tokyo Ballet Academy. But everyone keeps telling her, "ballet is not for girls like you." Heartbroken and miserable in their own lives, Maki and Niji find their way to each other and bring light and love to each other's life. College life and sexcapades aside, their lives are turned upside down by cursed spirits, fatphobic ballet instructors, and homophobic family members. But love somehow still perseveres. Maybe it's something worth believing in after all.
