Oppression storie

A young teenage girl, haunted by the memories of her father's execution, attempts to escape a cruel regime by night. A solitary woman, abandoned by her husband, inadvertently plays into the cruel hands of 'the state'. In another totalitarian regime a traffic light fixer is dealt with brutally for admiring a sunset. All these characters capture the essence of what it's like to be disempowered and cruelly dehumanised at the hands of a heinous, corrupt power. This sharp collection of pertinent short stories throws an at times uncomfortable light on cruelty, injustice and persecution that is all too relevant today. But ultimately these stories celebrate the strength and determination to survive at all costs, that exists within all of us.

The seasoned player of "Abyss of Stars," the [Starfall Master] Li Zi, brings a system template and travels to the game's world, arriving in the era of the game's beta version. This is the worst of times. The cosmic forces and conglomerates collude, causing the doors to the universe to be closed, the planet's resources to be exhausted, and even sunlight to be monopolized. This is also the best of times. All the extraordinary systems are just beginning. In this era, he is the only [Starfall Master] with the final version patch. While people are enthralled by the smoke of plasma guns and cannons, Li Zi has already torn apart battleships with gravity. While superhumans are smug about their awakened abilities, moonlight has already become Li Zi's servant. While the interstellar fleet crosses the Milky Way, Li Zi has just ignited the forty-second star, illuminating the entire universe. "People have been trapped on the ground for too long; they've forgotten that this starry sky should belong to all of us." -Facing the unspeakable aboriginal evil gods, Li Zi, holding a black hole, gently said.

"She escaped. They made her a symbol. She hated it." 2301. 12 regions. The capital erased history, culture, faith, and identity. A girl made to be a symbol, but cries every night. A soldier who tortures to feel human. A woman who'd burn the world for her family. And a man who just wants to die and leave. A resistance that grows stronger with every drop of blood. A ghost organization pulling the strings in the shadows. They track every thought. A government that's cracking apart but refuses to see it. And a plot that could cause war. The "next phase," they call it. Some wars are invisible. They think they know who the enemy is. They're wrong. And some "saviors" are just men behind the scenes wearing fancy suits and ties, calling themselves the "Heroes of Humanity."

Alma has never questioned The Sanctuary. Beyond the pine forests lies the Noise, a corrupt and violent world abandoned by the faithful decades ago. Inside the compound, life is orderly. Silent. Pure. Every morning begins with prayer, every choice belongs to the elders, and every girl is taught the same truth: Obedience is love. Raised within the rigid teachings of Father Vale and the Church of the Holy Silence, Alma has spent her life preparing to become the kind of woman the Sanctuary demands, quiet, devout, unseen. But when her closest friend disappears without explanation and whispers of hidden truths begin surfacing beneath the compound's careful rituals, Alma starts to notice the cracks in the world she was taught to fear leaving. Jonah has noticed them for years. Assigned to maintain the Sanctuary's generators and forbidden technology, Jonah has seen enough hypocrisy to know the cult's holiness is built on lies. He's spent years surviving in silence after his brother vanished for asking too many questions. But the closer Alma gets to the truth, the more dangerous they both become. As Father Vale tightens his grip and an arranged marriage threatens to seal Alma's future forever, Alma and Jonah are forced to confront the terrifying possibility that escape may be their only chance at freedom. But leaving The Sanctuary is only the beginning. Because the outside world is louder, crueler, and far more overwhelming than Alma ever imagined, and some forms of conditioning do not end at the gates. *Cult of Silence* is a haunting psychological thriller about control, faith, survival, and what it truly means to choose your own life.

Monastery of Second Chances is a gothic dystopian horror set inside a vast, walled-less prison governed by the enigmatic Sisters-women who radiate a calm, maternal presence that slowly dissolves resistance into obedience.

She is told not to. It is better not to ask. Everything remains stable until her only friend refuses to "go with the flow" and chooses death instead of compliance. Now Molly is left with a question the system cannot soothe away: Was that a tragedy... or an escape? And why does the monastery feel gentler after it happens?

The prince is secretly planning a revolution. The jester already knows. Unfortunately for both of them, that's only the beginning.

*In the kingdom of DANnud, love is not a feeling. It is a crime.* Every part of life is ruled by divine law: clothing, work, prayer, marriage... even emotion itself. Obedience is salvation. Desire is sin. And those who stray simply disappear. Adrian has spent his life trying to be faithful to a system that condemns even the thoughts he can't control. But his world fractures when he falls for Sam. In secret, they share a forbidden love - until Sam pulls away, and the pain of that loss wakes something ancient. Only then does Adrian cross paths with Azael, the entity known as the Demon. And through him, Adrian learns a truth more dangerous than sin: the laws of DANnud were never made to protect them... but to erase who they truly are. Torn between his devotion to the kingdom, his love for Sam, and the dark pull of Azael, Adrian must choose. Because in a world where love is forbidden, truth becomes the worst demon of all.

The machines ruled with logic. We rose with rage. Freedom returned... fractured and trembling. Two voices now shape the ruins: One whispers of freedom - wild, untamed. One echoes for order - sharp, unyielding. Hope hangs between them. So does war. They see themselves as saviors. Heroes of a story reborn. Yet in the quiet places where light cannot reach... a silent mind has already finished the ending. "Let them fight for the crown... I will rewrite the kingdom." - Unknown

The children looked - in despair - towards the Euphrates river. Withered lips dreamt of dew... Young girls whose hearts had reached their throats listened - in terror - to the drums of the battalion which was dreaming of conquest and captivity and crazy vultures hovered waiting for the moment to pounce. The moments of sunset accumulated inflamed... The Euphrates blazed behind the fiery peaks of palms. The night was about to fall as the darkness slithered on the sand. Sadness wandered through the tents spreading its heavy shadow and groans rose from everywhere. As green dreams yearn for rain, fertility and life...
