Soulsearching Stories

"You can only push a person so far before they break." The dark veil of the Black Prom Massacre still hangs heavy over Chamberlain, Maine. Everyone believes the tragedy's catalyst, Carrie White, is dead, but they are wrong. Barely clinging to life and sanity, Carrie flees her infamous past, alone and hunted for the devastating telekinetic power that erupted from her. Just as hope fades, a mysterious older man finds her and leads her to the only person who might hold the key to her survival: Jago, a Tibetan warrior-monk consumed by a quest for atonement. But Carrie's troubles have only just begun. The same deadly forces that stalk the competitors of the Killer Instinct tournament-those who seek to harness her "cursed" ability-are closing in. With the terrifying, impending apocalypse of Gargos's invasion drawing near, Carrie must master the raw, brutal strength of her power before it consumes her. The journey towards redemption has begun. ------------------------------------------ Cover credited by @Niranju98.

- High fantasy drama meets TTRPG hijinks in a mystical adventure bursting with heart, hilarity, and otherworldly horrors - ------ When the truth calls to you, will you have the strength to face it? From the day she discovered her magical talents, Talwyn Farrier has been haunted by the same dream. Stranded in unfamiliar lands, she's tormented by swarming shadows, her missing father's cries, and the full face of the green moon, Vidias, looming over her. When her latest hope for insight into her dream hits another dead end, she's convinced her journey to the jungle-bound city of Trocari was all for nothing. New places bring new possibilities, however. After a fateful meeting with a travelling trio and their eccentric benefactor, Talwyn receives a golden opportunity to find the answers she needs in exchange for filling in on a routine job. Yet the work lures her down much darker paths of mysterious disappearances, political machinations, and otherworldly influences that soon seem all too familiar to her. Dangers mundane and magical gather at every turn. As their quest takes them beyond - and below - the bustling streets of Trocari, risks and revelations push Talwyn and her companions to their limits. Can they unearth the source of the corruption at the city's heart? How far will they go to protect their new bonds? And how does it all connect to the secrets locked in Talwyn's ever-present dream? ------ Updates on Thursdays.

Another tear fell from her eyes and it joined the trillion tears in the sea. Then, she jumped into the sea. Under the sea, she tried to find and catch her old tears but it wasn't found. Suddenly, she realized that she was already in a pool of tears. She heard the cries of agony and the cries of joy. As she swam through the sea, she slowly found her true self within.

My name is Tomoko Rui I am fifteen years old, I don't quite understand the concept of humanity and what it's supposed to stand for, or what it's supposed to feel like. This is my story, and the journey I had trying to find the true and real meaning behind being a human. (Updates each Sunday if not busy!) TW:mild mentions of suicide and descriptions that may affect sensitive readers! Continue at your own comfort I am a very young writer that tries to share theyr thoughts through stories, and I wish that I reach the right audience! Before you read the story itself id like to mention that my grammar sucks a lot, and that I don't really go by the rules since I want the story to feel like Rui is speaking from his own perspective on the moment you read! Also this is FICTIVE and nothing from the story has really happened, don't confuse that just because the MC has the same name as me, the author.

In the chilling streets of Edinburgh, Kalynda walks the thin line between existence and oblivion. She feels the world but remains untouched by it-immune to the cold, indifferent to the emotions that grip others. A silent observer of life, she finds fleeting solace in the scent of old books, the warmth of coffee, and the haunting whispers of the dark woods. But as she ventures deeper into the shadows, something-someone-is watching. A presence lurks beyond the frost-laced trees, drawing her toward a fate she never anticipated. Is she running from the world, or is the world closing in on her? And when the line between life and death blurs, will she embrace the darkness or fight to escape the inevitable? "Death Sentence" is a haunting psychological thriller infused with raw emotions, poetic melancholy, and a touch of existential horror. Perfect for readers who crave introspective narratives and atmospheric storytelling. "Will love win or will Death take control?"

A poetic reflection on existence, suffering, and the quiet rebellion of choosing to live with intention.

Simple to say, "I am who I am," but those words are just a facade of a deceitful who's indecisive on declaring who she really is. Who is she really? Is she not enough to recognize her own self? "Alam ko pero hindi. I'm sure I am... Am I?" -ANA MAE VICITO QUERREZ This story is the my first prose since I am into poetry. Sana magustuhan ninyo. Give it a little chance. Gracias!

Before I Was Me is a quiet journey into the deepest corners of the soul - where awakening begins, where sins feel heavy, where the heart whispers, and where Allah calls us back. This book is not noise. It is breath. It is remembrance. It is a mirror for anyone who has ever felt lost, numb, disconnected, or aching for a return they can't explain. If you've ever carried a heaviness nobody could see... If you've ever wanted to come back to Allah after drifting too far... If you've ever felt life becoming loud and your soul becoming silent... Then this is your story too. Before you were you - you were already known. This is the journey back to that remembrance.

"You're God's beloved!" That's how Princess's mom used to remind her. But how could she believe it nor accept the fact that she's beloved by God if one day she woke up her beloved mommy was already lying on the floor with her blood and was killed by her atheist dad? Will she hold on to those words? Or will she harbor hatred for God? Well, that horrific situation turned her to live a life far different from what she desired. A life without knowing God. It's a story of a lady, a prodigal daughter of God who struggled to find her truest identity by battling over all the dark forces dwelling inside of her. ******************** Therefore, without further ado, I warmly welcome all of you to a journey of finding someone's truest identity. May this story help you find your own and live your life with great purpose and meaning. God bless you all. 😇🙏

🏆 Winner of first place Ummah Awards For best short story. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• In a quiet, reflective moment, a soul reaches out to God not with anger, but with quiet confusion and a longing heart. Through fragmented thoughts and raw honesty, the narrator questions why God seems to care for others but not for them. As memories of pain, loneliness, and a desperate desire to be seen surface, the story gently explores faith, abandonment, and the aching beauty of wanting to be chosen too.
