Postapoctalyptic Stories

The world did not end in an instant. It ended slowly-quietly-like something dying while still pretending to live. Serein Valdez learned to survive in that silence. Not because she was strong, but because she paid attention to things other people ignored. She learned how to move through ruined cities, how to avoid danger before it showed itself, and how to stay invisible long enough to live another day. She never planned to get involved with anyone. Especially not him. Leviandro Solenne is the kind of man who survives without asking permission from the world. Former military. Controlled. Detached. A man who moves like every decision has already been made long before it happens. When Serein finds him surrounded in the ruins-outnumbered, cornered, seconds away from death-she knows she should walk away. She doesn't. That single moment binds them in a world that punishes mistakes and calls attachment a weakness. He doesn't trust her. She shouldn't have saved him. But in a place where survival is no longer about strength alone, but about choice, instinct, and consequence- leaving each other becomes harder than surviving the world itself. And when the quiet finally ends, what's left behind is not just destruction. But the things they were never supposed to feel.

When a single scratch means death, it is paramount you find someone to watch your back. Unfortunately, survivor Caroline Wolfe has never had this privilege. When the plague began to ravage the world as she knew it, she was left to fend for herself, forcing her into positions she never wished upon anyone. The plague broke out five years before, killing over 90% of the world's population. It turned those she thought she could trust into mindless, undead, monsters and creatures controlled by survival, not loyalty. Caroline was lucky to have made it out of Ottawa alive, thanks to the help of her childhood in the Yukon, learning how to fight and survive with more traditional weapons. When she finds herself trapped within the confines of an abandoned apartment complex in what was Caledon, she has to make a choice. Either face the undead alone or help the mysterious, accented, skull faced man she finds within and tether herself to him for the foreseeable future. What she isn't expecting is to find someone she can lean on and, even, learn to love. The idea of a cure and the promise of answers loom on the horizon, but the question is if she can find it in herself to trust another. .｡❅*⋆⍋*∞*｡*∞*⍋⋆*❅｡.

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.

A saga begins not with hope... but with extinction. Humanity ended three times. By the aftermath of the Third War, Earth was nothing more than a silent graveyard- a irradiated blue ghost drifting through space. The survivors, shattered into twelve isolated Clans, lived in poverty, ignorance, and fear... until the day the Empire arrived. The Talvegan Starship Datrok, commanded by Herdron Zullikus under the orders of Emperor Karelffar Arthrender, reaches the ruined solar system with a single proposition: rebirth in exchange for absolute loyalty. Advanced technology, healed lands, food, medicine, a place among the stars- all of it offered to a species that had destroyed itself. But the price is steep: the Clans must swear eternal peace among themselves and submit fully to Talvegan rule. In the decaying Dresden Palace, the twelve leaders agree. They call it The Alliance. Centuries pass. The Alliance thrives-too much. Now a rising galactic power, it rules through strict segregation, militarization, and harsh colonial expansion. Beneath its shining fleets and magnificent worlds lies a darker truth. As conspiracies spread and threats gather across the galaxy, the descendants of Earth's saviors must confront a horrifying question: Can a civilization built on the ashes of its own sins survive the weight of its legacy? A sweeping sci-fi epic of empires, moral decay, and the fragile line between salvation and domination.

Our protagonist, Alex, and his gang of non-conformists must learn to survive in this new environment. Will he be successful?

"The vampires left a clear message: laws only mattered if blood production was threatened." Four years ago, everyone in the ice cream shop died. My brother shoved me under a table while a vampire tore through the room, draining people dry before anyone even understood what was happening. I thought I was going to die too. I woke up underground instead. Now I live in Harrow - a city beneath the earth where kidnapped children are raised like livestock for vampires. Every week we line up for pull, giving blood in exchange for food, shelter, and the illusion of protection. The strong take what they want. The weak learn how to disappear. And the vampires only intervene when someone damages their property. Human lives don't matter here. Blood does. After losing the only person she trusted, the last thing Khloe wants is attention - especially from the strange girl who keeps appearing around the city's worst places. Lia is unsettling, detached, and asks questions no normal person would ask, like how long it takes someone to die on a cross. But in a city built on violence and survival, even curiosity can become dangerous. Especially when the girl watching her is far more than she claims to be.

Would you give everything for a world that will never remember your name? Across four dying ages of the same broken reality, four women begin to hear a call they cannot explain. Innaue is a sleepless Searcher in Karn, chasing the vanished sister only she remembers. Shurei is an omen-born exile in a city drowning in drought and prophecy. Rima survives beneath a merciless desert sky, carrying the grief of a people history keeps trying to erase. Asthera leads the last remnants of Serris through a thawing world of frost, machines, and impossible ruin. None of them know each other. None of them understand why their worlds are breaking. But each is haunted by the same force: the Dreamflow, an ancient current of memory that promises preservation, continuity, and salvation from the final dark. The Guardians call it order. The faithful call it mercy. The broken know better. Because the Dreamflow does not save worlds. It repeats them. As cities fracture, old powers return, and forgotten histories begin to bleed through the seams of reality, the four women are drawn toward a truth older than myth: some systems do not become monstrous because they fail, but because they succeed for too long. And if life is to mean anything again, someone must pay the price of ending forever. Failsafe is a dark science-fantasy novel about memory, sacrifice, love, entropy, and the terrible mercy of letting things end.
