"We recreate reality in our own way. Because sometimes, there are things we wish had been the other way around." Some worlds are born from dreams. Others are born from grief. Haunted by a guilt that was never his to bear, one man creates a world where fate can finally be rewritten-a fragile paradise where impossible tomorrows still bloom, forgotten memories never fade, and the life that should have been is finally allowed to exist. It is beautiful. It is peaceful. It is almost perfect. Until the one it was built for begins to remember. With every memory that returns, another crack spreads across the glass that holds this world together. The illusion begins to collapse, forcing an impossible choice: Protect the perfect lie... or destroy everything to reclaim the truth. As reality and memory collide, both worlds race toward the same inevitable ending-where love demands sacrifice, memories become both salvation and destruction, and some truths can only be remembered by letting an entire world disappear. Because sometimes... the hardest person to save is the one who created the world in the first place.

Once a hero now a mere shadow...

The Punishing Virus took everything from him... his life, his humanity, his friends... his connections... and now, all that was left of him, or what remained of him, was his consciousness inside the body of a Construct, corrupted with the same virus that took everything from him. Now fueled with unbridled rage and an insatiable hunger to plunder the corrupted, this nameless corrupted construct will seek vengeance on the virus, using his own corruption to terminate every single life tainted by the Punishing Virus. Cursed with ungodly abilities and a jaded M.I.N.D., he roams and wanders across the post-ridden Earth, hoping to regain everything that he had lost as he massacres them all to sate his thirst for the eradication of the Punishing Virus And in spite of all of this, it begs the question, what will happen to him once his existence will be revealed to Babylonia? And what will happen to him once he meets... or reunites... with the Gray Raven squad? Well, that's assuming if they can get to him first... before the Ascendants do... (I own no art, they all belong to their respective artists) (Punishing: Gray Raven respectfully belongs to KURO GAME)

In a world where the strong reign and power rules with an iron fist. A young boy struggles, longing to rise to prominence. But the strength he longed for, is it all that it seems? In the universe there lie existences capable of shaking the world, the Gods, "benevolent" beings with lives as old as time. Immortality; a prospect longed for by all, and a dangerous one at that, even behind the endless scandals lies and deceit, you would find vista of the strong clawing against the strong, brother against brother. Brutal killing as they thread the narrow road to immortality. "Enlighten the people, free the deceived from captivity." This is not a story of a hero but rather the kindest of villains. -----------------------------------------&----------------------------------------- "We're not the good guys, are we?"- Erebus sighed rubbing his temple. Part 1 of the Immortal Saga.

Reborn in Shadows An Isekai Fantasy with Dark Secrets and Forbidden Powers Zenith never asked for a second chance at life. After dying in his world, he awakens in a strange, fantastical realm, filled with unfamiliar landscapes, mysterious creatures, and strange magic. But something's off-he's not like the others. Unlike the Otherworlders who are summoned with divine blessings, Zenith is reincarnated without one. His powers-spectral and energy-based-are both his gift and his curse. The more he uses them, the more he loses of himself. Memories of his past life fade, leaving him lost in a world he doesn't belong to. Yet the world itself is full of dangers that threaten to consume him. As Zenith struggles to control his powers, he discovers that he's part of something much bigger-a hidden conspiracy, ancient powers, and an unknown force that could unravel the very fabric of his existence. Alongside unlikely allies, including the time-manipulating Raven and the enigmatic healer Elira, Zenith must face the consequences of his forbidden abilities. But with each battle, each use of his powers, Zenith loses more of who he is. As the search for a way to restore his memories and reclaim his identity begins, Zenith will have to make a choice: sacrifice everything to save the world-or risk losing himself completely in the process. In Reborn in Shadows, the line between salvation and destruction is as thin as the fading memories of a man who never asked for this fate. Will Zenith find a way to control the darkness within him-or will it consume him before he can learn the truth?
