In 1940, two years after a brutal civil war that resulted in the return of Kaiser Wilhelm II, the revived German Empire emerged as the dominant military, economic, and technological power in most of Europe. The Central Powers had been reformed, and significant technological advancements had been made that would forever change the world. However, just as a second world war was on the horizon, an enormous magical gate opened in Berlin. From this gate poured an army of armor-clad warriors and mythical monsters from another dimension, led by a man who proclaimed the creation of the "New Arthurian Province." Although the attack was successfully repelled, the gateway - dubbed the "Gate of Dimensions" - remained in Berlin. Fearing further assaults, the Kaiser mobilized a massive army composed of tanks, infantry, armored dogs, and supersoldiers to explore the other side of the gateway. What they discovered was a world filled with magic, abundant natural resources, and otherworldly forces.

"And I heard a voice in the midst of the Four Beasts. And I looked and behold - a pale horse. And his name that sat on him was Death. And Hell followed with him."

Gate: War of Two Worlds. A Gate story loosely based on the Gate manga/anime. It starts similar and then goes on its own stories. It is a story when a alien Empire invades Philadelphia through a magical Gate in the year 2025. The US leads a NATO-led war in Humanity first interstellar war. A Ranger united called Vanguard-7 is led by Major Sharpe. He will have to face the unknown of this world while facing his past and upholding his ideals. This story has original character, original story, original locations and factions. The Gate story is a baseline for a far grander world that I have planned. Note: Volume 1 is a mix of Gate cannon and original work. Volume 2 is mostly a copy of the Italica Arc. Starting Chapter 25 is when the book becomes mostly original with only light story arcs from the gate cannon but with my twist.

If you could enter the world of a video game, would you take the chance? We all know the story of the boy named Kirito, who battled his way through the Castle Aincrad and found love along the way. But he isn't the only person with a story to tell. Have you ever wondered about all those other players who were trapped inside the world of Sword Art Online? I doubt that you have. But if it has crossed your mind, then please indulge yourself with a tale that follows the life of a player who was thrown into a world of chaos. A player who only wanted to escape a dreaded isolation. The following piece of literature is a non-profit fan-based story. Sword Art Online is owned by A-1 Pictures, Aniplex USA and Reki Kawahara. Please support the official release.

Nanami Takeba, a 14 years old girl who, too, is trapped in a Virtual Reality Multi-Massive Online Role Playing Game or VRMMORPG called Sword Art Online but she is called Nami. Similar to Kirito, she's a solo player but also a profesional information broker. She is also a sadist who always enjoy men beg on her feet until she met Kirito and Asuna. Nami was also called The Thief of Dreams because she has a weapon called The Dream Eater that can transform into any weapon but it mostly takes the form of a katana and a skill called Dream Stealer. Although, Nami wears a black/yellow gown and always speaks politely which only makes her seem like an innocent girl. DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN SWORD ART ONLINE. REKI KAWAHARA DOES NOT ME!

Meanwhile while she's gone Arria beings to surface once again, finally coming from the shadows to reek havoc on Sudegam. Searon must decide if he can help lead the elves to victory, or if even the new human alliance with the elves won't be enough, and another alliance needs to be formed, a dangerous alliance.
