Main prompt: 15. Your Djungelskog plush suddenly starts talking. It says you need to leave your home immediately. Lena Meadows was left in charge of a secluded family home because the parents would be out of town. The house, once owned by a grandmother who was a nun and died 8 years ago under mysterious circumstances, is now in her care. One night, when everything is going smoothly, one of the children's Djungelskog plush begins to speak. It tells her to leave her home immediately. But it is too late, for something inside the house has already been awakened. They are isolated, and the parents are unreachable. I guess some warnings aren't meant to be questioned.

When the crown is stolen and her parents killed, the kingdom of Evertoire descends into tyranny, and Aerythiel, the princess no one knows survived, must expose the truth--or die trying. ❥๑━━ In a kingdom once peaceful, now overthrown by a manipulative and corrupt king, two siblings are bound by blood and survival, forced to protect one another after narrowly escaping death--yet torn by the missions they cannot ignore. Aerythiel, the princess no one knows survived the massacre of her family, must live in secrecy while leading a hidden fight to protect her people and avenge her parents. Luthien, her older brother, has sworn to shield her at all costs, even as he struggles to outrun a past he dares not remember. Neither knows the other's full mission, and if their secrets collide, both their plans-and countless lives--could be destroyed. As the kingdom suffers under the hand of a king manipulated by unseen forces, Aerythiel faces a devastating truth: to achieve justice, she may have to destroy the life of someone she loves. What would you do when the only path to truth demands a choice so painful you might wish you never knew it at all? ❥๑━━ ONC prompts used: 32. Two assassins from rival organizations are sent on the same secret mission, only to realize the assignment hides a much bigger truth. --- 16. And into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul. -John Muir 29. You will meet many people in your life. Many will come and go, but some will leave footprints on your heart. 80. Monsters don't live under your bed. They live in the recesses of our minds. 85. You thought you'd burned that letter years ago--the one with the confession no one was ever meant to read. But somehow, it's back in your hands.

An ordinary woman is torn from her failing modern life when a thief botches an escaping spell, dropping her into the middle of a fight in a world that was never meant to be hers. The Marrowbound clan mistakes her for their long-lost Holy Lord of the Temple of Shadows, but clearing this misunderstanding would result in a tragic death. All she wants to do is to survive long enough in this world to find a way to return home. But as time goes by, strange things happen, leaving her questioning if this is a case of mistaken identity or if she is really their long-lost Holy Lord. Was she pulled into this world by chance, or was she always meant to return?

She never asked to lead. She never wanted to be followed. Now, across countless worlds, they call her goddess. Set in a fractured galactic empire after interstellar war, this is a long-form space opera exploring transhumanism, faith, and power across multiple confirmed realities. In the wake of cataclysm, a reluctant figure rises from the ashes of war. Linuka-soldier, survivor, symbol-becomes the unexpected catalyst for something unprecedented: a belief system that spans not just worlds, but entire realities. As her image ascends, so does a movement-one that grows into the first true multiversal religion. You don't need to have read the Galacticide trilogy to begin here. But you're stepping into a universe decades in the making-rich with history, conflict, and consequence. This is a new beginning, and a bold saga in its own right: the rise, rule, and eventual unraveling of an idea powerful enough to unite, or destroy, all that remains. Goddess of the Galacticide blends space opera with psychological drama, mythology, and political warfare on a cosmic scale. Whether you're just arriving or have walked these ruined galaxies before-welcome. The next age begins now.

In 2123, being a Pro Hero is the dream for a majority of the world. Who wouldn't want to get paid to save hot girls AND be a celebrity? Leo Lambert, that's who. Sure, he's got a Gift, and yeah, he's got a knack for saving people. But Leo would rather keep his head down and mouth running than play nice for the press. It's too bad for him that his instincts don't believe in having an easy life. After being (illegally?) drafted by an Underground Pro, he's neck-deep in a conspiracy no one wants to talk about; chasing down missing kids while the people in charge look the other way. His mentor is hiding something, and the villains are hiding in plain sight. He just didn't expect them to be wearing the very same capes he looked up to. --- What to Expect: - Sarcastic but emotionally vulnerable MC - Power system with social consequences - Fast-paced action and character-driven drama - Found family - Heavy themes: identity, justice, trauma, and self-worth - LGBTQ+ rep - Manga/anime tone with a Western twist
