The Solar Overlord has brought a curse on the people to find the heir to the Bow of Larzzini. In a dream, Darcy is told what he needs to do; find the bow and stop the Overlord. At first he is confused, then signs start showing up. The signs lead him, and two others outside the mountains and onto their Plateau of Fire. Darcy takes an axe; the one he has to use to cut the firewood, and the three set of to find the Bow of Larzzini to heal the sick and wounded.

A Country Life
Three hundred years after the fall, the known world is beginning to regain a semblance of order, with the sword the ultimate power once more. But not everything of old was lost, and there are some that will exert deadly effort to obtain what was left behind. Orphaned, plague-marked and mistrusted by the community he lives in, a boy must come to terms with the fact that he is different from everyone else, but is soon the focus of unwelcome and deadly attention. Separated from her father, a young girl has to learn to survive in a foreign land haunted by tribes of ghosts and roving bands of piratical thralls to a sadistic King. A watcher keeps lonely vigil from within a fortress that has been under siege for hundreds of years, while a soldier dies for the twenty-third time, and dies again while wondering if he is going mad. First started in 2015, this story is at 50k+ words, but was removed when a plotting hiccup was encountered. I now intend to split it into three parts, and this is the complete Part 1. Part 2 will begin once I've finished editing another work... Please vote and comment, as your input will help shape the story. Enjoy!Complete

Yes, it gets that bad, somehow even worse than Cyberpunk 2077, and that shit is bleak. It comes as no surprise then, that a virtual MMORPG would garner a huge player base. In this world of YGGDRASIL, an old guild still stands. One that goes by the name of "Ainz Ooal Gown", a lobby of 41 friends that over the course of YGGDRASIL's lifespan slowly dwindled to just two... and ππ‘ππ§ ππ‘ππ«π π°ππ¬ π¨π§π.

UN-MELTABLE! Pt 1
Kasey has no family, and only one true friend. He lives in an orphanage in which the main and only rule is BEAT OR GET BEAT! So as he turned the corner and saw the four testosterone induced gorillas blocking the hallway, he knew he'd have to do some serious butt-kicking if he wanted to get to the toilet, and then had to hope it wasn't being used. But now, Kasey had something that (hopefully) no one else did. Training. In fact to be more specific, assassins training, which he had received after getting jumped in a store, delivering some serious fly kicks, and getting noticed by a black kid in a red hoodie, who's name was Something African. Literally. So now, as kasey walked towards these banana deepthroating monkeys, he cracked his knuckles defiantly and said... "Who's first?" He still didn't make it to the toilet.Complete
Steady Ground | β
He's damaged. He's lost. And worse of all, his memories have come to life. If he wants to find peace, he'll need to redefine what it really means to move on. -- For the first time in years, Atlas feels like he's separated himself from the misfortune in his life. He's healed, he's rented a decent apartment, he's settled into a solid-enough-for-him job working as a grunt for some scientists. Now he's (reluctantly) traveling to the spring snows of Alaska, where they plan to test the first run of their earthquake-harnessing technology. But something goes wrong. They don't harness the energy of an earthquake. No. Instead, the ground rips apart. A massive crevice forms, leading deep into the Earth. The chasm lulls him forward like a Siren, telling him tales of his mother, of her laughter, of her scent of strong sandalwood, and of his life before her death. Waking up in what he can only describe as Hell, he's confronted with every misfortune in his life. Forced to befriend mirages made from his most painful childhood memories or pay severe consequences, he travels the twisted realm in search of answers.
