"Thou shalt not surrender to those of injustice."
Being named "Justice" isn't as easy as one would have thought especially if you specialize in the Art of War. However, that's how things seem to be for Astraea Twine, Commander in Chief of the armies of Ecarlious.
Since long, Astraea has taken a blind eye to the pull of guilt. After all, doesn't the greater good always win? Yet, Astraea can't help but doubt the crown's power... and intentions.
For far too long, too many wrongdoings have been done, staining her hands bloody. Too many lives taken for the mere greed of the crown.
Slowly regrets began to devour her, piece by piece... Those innocent lives slaughtered. Children and elders both, burn. Life to ash. Warm to cold. Simple as that.
As Astraea begins to doubt the lines of friends and foes, a price comes about. The crowd hears the news...of her betrayal.
Now no longer the once respected Commander, but rather the treacherous traitor. No longer does she serve injustice, no longer will she cower in the presence of the crown. Together with many newly founded allies, her conquest to a better world begins.
Perhaps, even love is possible, the one thing that could ruin all. Yet so strong, enough to unite us all.
In the world of where magic and power rules all, one cannot hope but to surrender.
And thus forward will the dance of life and death begin.
Long live the Commander of Legends.

But beware, no one escapes unscathed. Hello there! This is my first attempt at writing something, so please bear with me-I'm a bit sloppy when it comes to endings. You might find this story familiar if you're a fan of manhwa. That's no coincidence! This story is inspired by a dream I had after reading a typical romance manhwa (though I can't quite remember which one). All the double gaps means some time delay or skip. I hope you enjoy this little slice of my imagination! 💭✨ This was a one shot in one of my old account (which is not working unfortunately)Complete

Aftermath | Part III
"What Remains When the World Burns. Is What We Fight To Protect." PART III | The war is over. The world has thrived in the quiet solitude of peace. What survived was scattered, scarred, and aching, yet from the wreckage rose something unexpected: a fragile kind of beauty. Cities rebuilt from ash.

And in that stillness, in the soft breath of what was given up, people have learned to live again. To love. To hope. But beneath that silence, something always stirs- a shadow of what was, a reckoning long delayed, a spark that never truly went out. As old ghosts rise and the cost of survival begins to surface, the final threads of destiny pull tight. This is no new beginning. It's the last stand of what remains. This is survival. This is defiance. This is aftermath.Complete
The Fall of The Veil
"It's yours," I say when she merely stares, eyes flicking back and forth between it and myself. Calculating, processing. Wondering why on earth I would just hand it over to her. That's the question of the day, isn't it? The answer is because she's the revolution now. She's grown into the exact person I thought she would become - needed her to become. Every god needs a believer, but I can't say I expected to ever be the one kneeling. I used to want to lead the world. Now I just want to watch her remake it. I step closer, slowly, carefully. Like I'm approaching a predator. Because I am. Her head tilts to the side, confusion swirling amidst the cold calculation. My eyes travel down her form, cataloguing everything that's changed about her. Her stance is more rigid, her hair tamer, posture perfect. The wild, emotional girl is gone. And in her place is a queen in the making. -------- Verena Ebonmere was never meant to stand out.

Pulled between desire, loyalty, and the lure of her own unraveling power, Verena must decide whether she's the prey everyone expects her to be... or the crown they never saw coming. *NO HARRY POTTER KNOWELDGE NEEDED!!* *I do not own any of the world building or settings, but all characters and plots are my own :)*Complete![Wayward [The Princess' jewellery box]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/322469449-256-k70703.jpg)

One Sin
Nobody knows his real name. The world knows him only as Asra - and the world is afraid. In a Republic built not on crowns but on money, fear, and seven unseen families who own everything from the armies to the gods, Asra is the thing they never planned for: someone with nothing left to lose. For generations, Aurevia has lived in the shadow of their greed - its mines stripped, its people silenced, its crown reduced to a puppet's ornament. The world calls it peace. Those who remember call it slavery with better manners. Now Asra is dismantling it all. Piece by piece. Leaking secrets, igniting markets, turning the power of the seven against themselves. The world calls him a terrorist. But those who've lost everything see him as something else entirely: a reckoning long overdue. Far from the eyes of governments and kings - in lecture halls and back alleys, in midnight boardrooms and burning cities - a war is being rewritten. Not for freedom. For vengeance. Because in a world built on sin, it only takes one to bring it all down.
