Ancientworld cerita

Zanim człowiek stworzył miasta... stworzył pierwszy kęs. Każda cywilizacja zaczęła się od pytania: „Czy to zjem?" Jedzenie nie było tylko przetrwaniem. Było technologią. Było rytuałem. Było władzą. Było ewolucją. Od pierwszych łowców przemierzających dziką planetę... przez ogień, fermentację, alkohol, przyprawy, cukier, kawę, zakazane rośliny i tajemnicze grzyby... aż po przyszłość, gdzie człowiek zaczyna projektować własne pożywienie. EATSEEKER odkrywa ukryty kod zapisany w każdym posiłku. Bo prawda jest prostsza, niż myślisz: Nie tylko ty wybierasz jedzenie. Jedzenie przez tysiące lat wybierało ciebie.

Neriel (Eliano Rossi) Neriel, known in the human world as Eliano Rossi, is a man who has lived for more than three centuries without aging. A guardian of the ancient balance between life and death, he works for the Ministry of Endings, ensuring that death remains the final chapter of every mortal journey. Calm, mysterious, and impossibly wise, Neriel has witnessed civilizations rise and disappear, watched kingdoms become dust, and carried the memories of countless eras within his heart. Yet beneath his supernatural power and endless knowledge, he remains deeply human. A romantic soul hidden behind the mask of a cosmic guardian, Neriel believes that love is the strongest force that survives time. He has loved many times throughout his long existence, and each person he lost became a precious memory he refused to let fade. He lives in an ancient Italian house filled with magical artifacts, forgotten books, and memories from worlds beyond imagination. He can cross realms, understand forgotten languages, and manipulate ancient magic, but the things that matter most to him are often the simplest: A remembered voice. A shared dance. A handwritten letter. A moment that time could not erase. To the universe, Neriel is a protector of endings. But to those who truly know him... he is a man who spent centuries searching for something that even eternity could not replace: a reason to keep his heart alive. 🌙

Some loves are written in the stars. Theirs was written across time. When Nahla, a young woman with a heart devoted to forgotten ruins and flowers, touches an ancient blue rose carved into the stones of a lost kingdom, she is pulled centuries into the past. There, she meets King Zain-a ruler feared by his enemies, admired by his people, and imprisoned by a lonely heart that has forgotten how to smile. She was never meant to belong to his world. He was never meant to love someone who belonged to another time. Yet among war, whispered promises, moonlit gardens, and impossible roses, two souls become bound by a love that refuses to surrender to fate itself. When destiny tears them apart, they make a promise that even death cannot break. One waits through the passing of forty long years. The other carries his memory across centuries. Between them blooms a single blue rose-a flower that should never exist, yet blossoms for a love that time could never erase. The Ruins and the Rose is a haunting tale of destiny, sacrifice, hope, and eternal love-a reminder that some hearts are connected beyond history, beyond life, and beyond the limits of time. Because true love doesn't end... it waits.

Humans once lived beside the gods. Before they vanished, the gods left fragments of themselves within every soul - a memory of a world that no longer exists. Most people never awaken it. Some inherit it through ancient bloodlines that guard their power in secret. But in a forgotten mountain village where no great family rules, a couple prayed for a child for many years. On the night the stars aligned, heaven answered. Twins were born who did not inherit power. They remembered it.

In a world so vast that even a lifetime wouldn't be enough to tell its story to the very edges, this tale begins at its origin. On the Mother Continent, the struggle for power is ruthless, and men are not its most famous bearers. It begins with the Corcoran, a family of berserkers, the strongest species ever forged by the gods. From there, you will decide the fate of the world.

I understand the cover of these one-shots looks very silly (Cover by Renicuzwhynot? on Amino.), but do not think that's what this book is. I hope to make it serious and historically accurate. At the beginning of this book there will be lots of ancient world, but maybe in due time I will move up the ladder to middle ages. If my worldview offends you stop reading now. I will not change it to suite the perceived needs of others. It's how I see the world. Everyone has a different way of seeing it. THERE WILL BE NO SMUT WHATSOEVER IN THIS BOOK. I know that not a lot of people post content about the ancient world and I've always wanted to see something like that. I hope this quenches the thirst for other historical loving Country-human fans. I hope you enjoy.
