      Parts 15
    In the mist-shrouded village of Greywick, a silent tower looms over cobbled streets and moss-covered graves. At its heart hangs a great iron bell-so old its maker is forgotten, and so silent it has never rung in living memory. The villagers speak of it only in hushed voices, warning outsiders that its silence must never be broken. When Jonas Hale, a weary traveler with secrets of his own, arrives in Greywick, he becomes obsessed with the bell's mystery. What was it built to guard-or conceal? Why do the old stones bear strange carvings of a single watching eye? And why does the village fear the coming Harvest Moon? As Jonas digs deeper, ancient whispers rise from Greywick's past: of betrayal, forbidden rituals, and a curse tied to the bell's soundless voice. Each step toward the truth draws him closer to danger-and closer to a choice that could shatter centuries of silence. For in Greywick, some truths were meant to stay buried... And some bells were forged never to ring.

    This short story follows a royal inquiry led by Ser Wilson Liawn, Commander of the Kingsguard, in the twenty-seventh year of King Aldric's reign over Ironspire. Tasked by the sovereign to investigate strange disturbances near ancient cave mouths-where folk vanish and locals speak of creeping dreams and earth-born whispers-the company includes five noble knights and a healer from the Order of the White Hearth. The tale also weaves in ancient history: three centuries prior, Queen Lyra the Wise journeyed into the same depths to stop plagues that blighted the land, returning bloodied and violent with no sign of her twelve guardians. As Ser Wilson leads his group into the caves, they find unnatural cold, blasphemous spiral carvings that twist the mind, and a vault filled with unknowable tomes bound in strange leather, their pages bearing shifting script that hints at star-dwelling beings and uncharted realms. Pressing deeper, they discover a hidden city hewn from black stone, laid out in impossible geometries with a towering central edifice whose door devours light. Ascending a spiral stair within, Ser Wilson reaches a chamber opening onto pure void-where nameless colors swirl and formless shapes move through a space beyond mortal comprehension, accompanied by the grinding sound of worlds. When he turns, his companions have vanished without a trace, and a crushing weight compels him to flee. He emerges at sunset, alone and battered, his torches extinguished and armor torn; behind him, the cave appears ordinary once more. Though he returns to Ironspire to submit his account on the Eleventh Day of Frostwake in the Year of the Black Anvil, much of what he witnessed defies description, and from that time forward he gazes endlessly at the sky, searching for something only he can see-lurking between the stars, waiting.

It is ruled by divine creatures called Spirits, who are in charge of all the energy that flows through the planet and its inhabitants. When the youngest Spirit, Asura, in a desperate attempt to follow along with his older siblings, whom he feels left out and mistreated by, accidentally meddles with the Darkness that lurks within Lunaria, things go desperately wrong. It is up to his eldest sister, Akilah, to find a way to save both her little brother and the world from the Darkness and prevent it from consuming the entire world. The question is, however, whether or not Asura even wishes to be saved anymore. A battle between light and dark commences, with Lunaria's fate in the balance.

    AN EXPERIMENT THAT WENT WRONG Horror | Psychological | Survival | Mutation No one expected the virus to spread this fast. No one expected it to think. And definitely no one expected it to understand desire. Inside the corridors of DPS Gautam Budh Nagar, what began as an ordinary school day erupted into a waking nightmare. The infected roam the halls-some mindless, some... not. And at the heart of it all is an experiment meant to enhance, not destroy. The virus doesn't just kill. It listens. It learns what you crave. It grants it-strength, clarity, purpose- But always, always with a price. As survivors fracture, mutate, and fight to hold on to their humanity, one terrifying truth emerges: The virus knows what you want. That's why it gave it to you, and took everything else in return.

A different arc focusing on the new protagonist, basil, the one who continues The fight. An arc separate from the others story arcs; "The Peeking One: At Baguio", "The Peeking One: At Baguio 2", and "The Peeking One: DISCOVERY". It is ongoing. So keep up with the cosmic horror story! It is actually inspired by my school field trip to manila(same as the Baguio story). I made this to show my creativity to my school and prove my classmates that I am a writer.

    In this world, all throughout history, we have learned to hate and it's pretty contagious. It's the biggest sickness of our time. It's okay to not like something or someone, but to spend so much time and energy trying to hate someone or something... it's the cause of our wars. Fear of the unknown, and in that fear, we turn to the easiest emotion: anger. That anger, mixed with that fear. That, and wanting to just contain ourselves in familiarity, USUALLY (not always) tends to breed hate. I just hope that someday, we can come together and not have our fingers crossed behind our backs when we give someone a handshake or a hug, ya know. That's just me, though.

    Some family secrets are passed down in whispers. Ours is written in the stars. I've always loved the woods, a devotion inherited from my father. He told me stories of my grandfather, a man who believed the stars were cold enough to scream and that the sky would steal him away at night. I thought they were just ghost stories. I was wrong. Now, on a final trip with my friends, the forest has fallen silent. Our flashlights have died. And from the vast, star-pricked blackness above us, a sound begins-a chorus of cosmic agony that doesn't just fill the air, it fills our minds. My grandfather's hour has come again. And this time, the sky isn't just listening. It's taking.
