Across the kingdom, ancient legends once dismissed as myths are beginning to stir again. Unexplained powers are appearing. Long-buried secrets are resurfacing.

Follow the life journey of Neo, a young woman who was destined to find an ancient mask with mysterious powers. Her story takes place in a medieval fantasy world called Magna, which features a rich history, countless nations, and a lurking greater evil. This story is my little hobbyist passion project! All art and characters are drawn by me as well. You can find me on Deviantart, where I upload story-related drawings and designs. Chapters will be added whenever they are ready. I hope to finish the story one day, but be aware, it will be pretty long and I might end up splitting it up into multiple books. Also, treat the story as a first draft, so feedback is appreciated! My biggest inspiration and what to expect: I could best describe the vibe as a mix of Lord of the Rings, Studio Ghibli, and various other Anime. I aim for a (mostly) realistic story with some fantasy and magical elements. Nothing too crazy or over the top. It will feature a strong duality of awe-inspiring nature and beauty on one hand, and tension, action, as well as elements of horror on the other. There will be some blood and horror, be warned!

"Do you know what a 'Red Player' is? Yeah, me neither. That is, not until I became one myself." Looking back, it's almost funny. I came into Sword Art Online with a crystal-clear strategy. As a former beta tester, I had the first few floors mapped out to the millimeter-every optimal grind spot, every quest loop, every efficiency trick to become a top player, even though my time was thought to be limited. Well, that was back when everyone thought Sword Art Online was a normal game. But I jump ahead. My story is neither the story of a hero, nor the story of a villain. It is simply my story. How I survived a game that was designed to be fatal and entirely unforgiving. It is the story of someone who planned ahead using the fundamental mechanics of a game that became reality-only to find that sticking to said plan was impossible.

Somewhere... where love was never meant to bloom, it did. The beloved embraced it with the purest of promises, while the lover answered with nothing but cold indifference. From that moment, suffering took root. The laws that governed existence were shattered, and his grief swelled into a wrath fierce enough to turn against the very fabric of creation... against existence itself.

The contract was ordinary work: deliver a fugitive carter to the town of Dunmere and collect the balance owed. A sellsword takes the paper, walks the prisoner, asks no questions. Nael Arveth has survived a century and a half of other people's wars by knowing exactly which questions not to ask. Then, three days from Dunmere's gates, his prisoner tells him a story - about dusk deliveries into a town's north quarter, a watch paid to look away, and a fire that burned an entire row of homes with the doors barred shut. The town called it raiders. The town lied. Dunmere is a wounded place: a once-proud crossroads town where the market runs at half its stalls, the burned quarter sits untouched after four years, and a merchant named Josiah Renn quietly collects debts from widows who have nothing left to give. Nael means to deliver his prisoner, take his pay, and ride on - the way he always has. But an elf who has spent a hundred years outliving everyone he loved knows something about towns like this one, and about the men who feed on them. And when Renn's collector beats a grieving widow over her dead husband's debt, Nael stops asking which questions are safe. What he starts instead is a wager: everything he has, against a merchant's certainty that no wandering sellsword could ever raise the sum - with winter closing the roads, a knight of the wrong house for company, and the road east crawling with everything a dying kingdom shakes loose. The fire kept its secrets for four years. This winter, someone finally comes asking. The Broken Gate is the first book of THE LONGEST DEBT - a slow-burning medieval fantasy of quiet men, patient vengeance, and the true cost of an honest reckoning. Perfect for readers who love their fantasy grounded, their heroes weathered, and their justice served cold and exact.
