"Darkness took everything from me, so I have to become darkness to take them back." Natasha Walker is a general and president who served her country which was the last human civilization that exists in an apocalyptic world because to an endless war against the shadows. After the death of her son, she was swallowed by darkness. Her wish was simple but fate is unfair. Fortunately, a cracked-headed God gave her a chance to make that wish come true in one condition. Her mission is to entertain him through surviving into a game-like fantasy world as a shadow but she's not the only cheater in there.

In a world of ash, power is measured by what you've burned. Veyra Thornhollow doesn't remember her mother's face. She traded it years ago for the ability to calculate survival odds without flinching. In the Ember Cities, where the Concordat harvests the souls of the unregistered and the Veil Covenant chases apotheosis through self-annihilation, Veyra is something worse than a criminal. She is efficient. Tier-3. Self-taught. A monster who killed her teacher the moment the lessons ran out. Now she's set her sights on Solis Vane, a Tier-4 deserter controlling an army of Hollows in the poisoned marshlands. She doesn't want to kill him for justice. She wants to harvest his Hearth, extract his crystallized power, and use it to reach heights no wild Ashwright has achieved. The cost doesn't matter. Veyra burned the capacity for regret alongside her fear. But Solis has leverage of his own. A daughter. A hidden weakness. And the Hollow Marches don't forgive mistakes. Ashen Hollow is a progression fantasy for readers who like their protagonists cold, their magic systems brutal, and their victories pyrrhic. No redemption arcs. No found family. Just the endless calculation of survival in a world that consumes everything eventually.

In a world where magic flows unseen, and danger lurks in every shadow, a trio of unlikely heroes-an ironclad knight, a clever archer, and a mysterious mage-stumble upon a dark secret hidden beyond the veil of a willow tree. As they uncover the terrifying essence that oozes from a mysterious grotto, their bond is tested in ways they never imagined. With each step, they delve deeper into the unknown, where every choice could mean life or death. "Are We Evil?" is a tale of adventure, sacrifice, and the haunting question of what it truly means to be good-or to fall into darkness. Author Note: I am aiming for daily or weekly updates(Likely weekly or bi-weekly). I hope you enjoy it! Business inquires: AreWeEvil@gmail.com Oh, and feel free to comment :3.

Nearly 500 years have passed since the so-called apocalypse where souls dominated their control over the human vessels and grew into fierce monsters. A small frail kid saved humanity from getting wiped out of the face of the earth through his strangely powerful and unique techniques and taught them to the humans that followed him. He became a legend and humans developed special powers called cranks from his teachings. Humans couldn't procreate anymore. A very few thousands of last generation humans that remained or stayed alive by becoming crankers now constitutes the only humanity left on the planet. And they should continue to keep levelling up their cranks by slaying monsters and siphoning their souls to stay immortal and most of them tend to form teams to increase their odds. Everything was wrist-slittingly boring like that until one of those teams went ahead and mistakenly awakened the legend kid from his deep, and sound slumber. ----------------- Daily 2 chapters --------------- I'm an aspiring writer. And English is not my native language. So please bear with any vocabulary or grammar mistakes, and try to suggest any improvements to the story. It would be very much appreciated. Writing is a tab bit easier with enough drive of a motivation. ------------ Unfortunately the book cover doesn't belong to me. I found it on Pinterest. And edited it a little. ------------
