A young man from Earth, Lin Xuan, is unexpectedly cast onto an unknown world- crashing into the wreckage of an ancient starship woven from living biotechnology. In this savage yet mystical land, he encounters tribal clans who fear outsiders, and the Ashen Cult-fanatics who worship a corrupting, otherworldly force. As primordial entities stir beneath the planet's crust, as tribal survival becomes entangled with the fate of an entire world, Lin Xuan discovers that the starship is not merely a ruin, but the last ark of a lost civilization's flight from extinction. The road home remains beyond reach. Yet an apocalypse draws near. To survive, Lin Xuan must unravel the ship's secrets, bridging primal cultivation and cosmic technology- and on this alien soil, fight for himself, for the tribes, and for a world standing on the brink of transformation, seeking a single thread of hope amid the coming storm.

The final installment of the Protoverse Trilogy. The age of dominion began with conquest - but that was only the beginning. From the city of Drakemore, those who escaped the old universe carved new empires across a young Earth. They shaped continents, built wonders, and called themselves gods. But when ZOOM returns, it brings a question no army can silence: Are they saviors... or fugitives? To the rising peoples of this world, Drakemore's children are myths made flesh - creators of life, and destroyers of worlds. Yet beyond the stars, their home universe demands their return... and judgment. As floods rise and empires crumble, fate will decide whether the Dominion becomes the cradle of a new age - or the last echo of a fallen one.

In the year 2155, every new adult faces the life-defining Classification that decides their future. Eighteen-year-old Anna Henderson has spent her whole life preparing-studying, perfecting, controlling-determined to avoid the one result that would take her freedom away forever. But when fate deals her the rarest and most restrictive role, Anna is thrust into a world she never asked for, under rules she never agreed to, and under the watch of a young caregiver she barely knows. Daniel Jones was ready for the future the system promised him-steady, honorable, predictable. He wasn't ready for a determined, terrified girl who refuses to be reshaped by the government's expectations... or for the growing realization that her resistance isn't rebellion at all, but survival. As Anna fights to hold onto herself and Daniel tries to protect her in a world that demands obedience over humanity, the two are pulled into a complicated bond neither of them expected. With mounting pressure from the system, growing emotional stakes, and unexpected allies-and enemies-along the way, Anna must navigate a life split between who she once was and who she is being forced to become. And somewhere in that fragile in-between, a quiet rebellion begins-right in Anna's heart.

Viktor didn't expect to be abducted by aliens when he went to school one morning, and he certainly didn't expect to be thrown into the alien equivalent of a dog-fighting ring, either. But when fighting for his life quickly becomes his routine, will he be able to muster up the strength to break that mold? Especially when the fate of humanity rests on his shoulders? *** The Vokkrus, a warrior alien species, go to Earth with the intention to 'rescue' the human species from their dying planet. The catch is that they believe humans to be nonsentient and incapable of intelligent thought. They are treated as nothing more than the common animal. They are a commodity, something to fawn over and ogle at. Humanity's strength and stamina are nearly unrivaled on this new planet, and when Viktor is taken to an alien fighting ring, he quickly dominates the competition. Mercy has no place in the arena. When Viktor is adopted by the leader of the Vokkrus, an intimidating alien whose intentions are unclear, he is forced to shed his wariness and convince the alien king to save humanity from his accidental oppression. *** Please don't advertise other stories in the comments!

In a distant realm where magic thrives, ferocious beasts shake mountains and rivers with their mighty roars, and individuals wield superhuman strength capable of reshaping their surroundings. It is a magical world where the strong rules. But rampant corruption and chaos exist, where slavery, rape, murder, and discrimination against the weak were all but common. The magically superior people trample over the lesser unfortunate folks, using them as stepping stones and disposable assets. All hope for these downtrodden souls seems lost, but the wheels of fate have other plans for them. In a faraway ocean, one that is filled with demons and sea monsters, a great technological civilization suddenly appeared, one that came from a world that is only filled with chaos and destruction. This civilization became the heaven for people seeking a stable and peaceful life. The Earth rose and seas parted ways, and the environment had totally changed for its adaptability. Unfortunately, the inhabitants of this great technological civilization are all but manaless, arriving in a world where they are seen as inferior and as slaves. How will they react of finding themselves in a world where people can split mountains or bend the fabric of space, and where beings exist that even conventional weapons cannot defeat? How will they survive against deadly monsters, superhumans, titanic creatures, gods, and eldritch forces that could threaten entire nations? And how will the other powers that exist in this world react to a powerful, advanced nation filled with a race they deem inferior? This is the story of one of the most powerful empires on Earth, and how it broke the balance of power and rose to the top.
