Entropy Stories

Would you give everything for a world that will never remember your name? Across ruined cities and lost deserts, four strangers awaken, each haunted by visions and memories that do not belong to them. In the frost-choked depths beneath a dying metropolis, Asthera leads the last survivors toward an impossible hope. Innaue dreams of a twin she cannot find. Rima and Shurei are exiles, marked by thirst and prophecy, carrying wounds that are not entirely their own. Somewhere, beneath it all, the Dreamflow stirs, an ancient current binding worlds, lives, and memories in a cycle that refuses to break. As the lines between self and other dissolve, each must confront a question no one dares ask: What would you sacrifice if no one would remember you tried? Failsafe is a mythic, mind-bending journey through love, loss, recursion, and the cost of hope, where the only way to save a broken world is to let it go.

Lillas died in the most brutal way possible-betrayed by his own teammates and devoured by an Entropy, a monster born from collapsing dimensions. His final moment was nothing but burning rage. But fate didn't end there. When he opens his eyes again, he finds himself rewound to the day before the mission, before the betrayal, before the sealed door, before his death. This time... he won't die so easily. And the people who threw him away? They won't escape the truth. As Lillas uncovers the hidden origin of the Entropy and the corrupted system that controls the world's "resets," he realizes something terrifying: The monster that killed him- the Entropy he feared the most- may be the only one trying to protect him. Now trapped in a looping fate of death, rebirth, and collapsing timelines, Lillas must choose: Save humanity from the incoming collapse- or follow the Entropy that whispers to him from every timeline. A sci-fi thriller about betrayal, time loops, and the thin line between monster and savior. Love and destruction begin with one reset.

Damn, aren't we complicated ? Feelings and stuff ? It all seems easy from afar and we're the best teachers whenever someone comes to ask for our help. But apparently, we can't do what we usually preach. It's all about that inner fight.

Absurd Poetry Art once again by Kim Diaz Holm

Much was lost following the Catastrophe. If humanity is ever going to be great again it must salvage what it can from wreckage and learn the mistakes of the past. These are the logs, diaries and journals of those enterprising members of the Insitute charged with delving deep into the ruins, the dark places and the lost corners to search for that which can be of use. Of course, not all that they find is benign. After all, the Catastrophe happened for a reason...

A collection of poetry and short story entries that is written in times of self-discovery

This story is about Melchior, a 13-billion-something year old consciousness with a lime-flavored galaxy for a soul and no patience whatsoever. He is always and constantly utterly bored and makes new friends everywhere he goes. Well, at least he considers them friends. They might too, if he wouldn't always wreck the planets he visits. Follow him through dimensions and solar systems, as he uncovers mysteries unbeknownst to mankind and maybe you'll figure out, why chaos seems to follow him wherever he goes.

Oneself sometimes have a thought. Beginning small, pecking at the inside of your skull. And as time goes, it slowly grows in size. Beginning to be released from ones mind. The pecking become ever higher. Louder. Incistent. Until one day it becomes to much. As it claims your every thinking moment, every single step, breath and sight only to remind you of itself. This is a collection of those thoughts, of short stories. Some bound to other thoughts. Some merely born from the thinking of other things. A collection of short stories that hopefully shall never truly end for as long as I take breath. For a human that does not think, is never truly alive. And as I leave you adieu. I wish that you enjoy even a single story.

When Antheron, the Shadow of Convergence, seeks to bind gods, demons, and mortals into a single chaos, the universe summons its last hope - The Aegides. Bound not by perfection but by purpose, this unlikely band of guardians must defend the fragile balance of existence. Their journey through betrayal, sacrifice, and unyielding battles will test the meaning of freedom itself. In the end, their struggle is more than survival - it is a stand for choice, for difference, and for the spark that makes every soul worth saving.

After the Doctor is alerted to time distortion and high levels of entropy, the Time Lord’s investigation lead’s him to the planet Verdopolis, where after countless time experiments to halt the progression of time, time is literally running out for the rest of the Universe.

And one of those friends just so happens to be Anna Bailey who after three years is still struggling to adjust to life after the Doctor, haunted by her stalled life, unable to understand her destiny and why the mystery man who Anna is supposed to continue her family line with hasn’t materialised into her world yet. Though there’s one man about to drop back into Anna’s world as an exhilarating and scary adventure awaits the Doctor and his former companion who are joyfully and triumphantly reunited to save the Universe from a premature end. The eighth in an eight part story arc featuring Matt Smith's Doctor. “Alfred…I don’t like to rush you old chap but I came here very much hoping for some advice…A little brain storming session and the sharing of knowledge perhaps.” The Doctor stood up, a bundle of nervous energy though mainly because the sentient couch had become frisky and was undulating beneath him. “Time’s running out, literally running out, the whole Universe will soon be caught up in this time acceleration which has originated from Verdopolis. If we don’t do something soon, the Universe will have descended into a state of irretrievable chaos, you’re talking expansion, heat death, all the stars going out…The Universe ending billions of years before it’s time.”
