Humanity hides its skeletons in closets. History opens the doors.
Amaranthine Historica doesn't just open doors; it drags the secrets into the neon-lit streets of Amarantis. This is no linear tale-it's a mosaic of eras and epochs, leaving no corner untouched. Comedy and tragedy blur into stark, unvarnished truth.
Inspired by the mystical Emerald Tablet, the book echoes this timeless wisdom:
"Separate the subtle from the gross, with great diligence. Let truth stand, unchallenged."
That's the mission of Amaranthine Historica: peeling back layers of illusion to reveal raw, defiant truths found not in compromise but in the jagged edges of reality.
History's Glitches
History is riddled with cracks-tiny glitches in humanity's grand designs. This book doesn't just document them; it digs in, exposing what's been hidden.
Welcome to Amarantis
Once a city of impossible ambition, now a glittering tomb. Beneath the Membrane Dome, neon-lit canals shimmer while the fiery Serpent Volcano broods in the west and the ΩHM Military Base looms in the east. Perfection was its promise, but perfection became its prison.
The Fall of Perfection
At the heart of this dream-gone-wrong lies W. Olfus, a Nobel Laureate consumed by his obsession with control and immortality. Under his regime, rebellion became treason, and freedom a fading memory.
The Catalysts
Enter Pharaona and Astellaria. Pharaona, forged from the sands of the Sphinx, is grit and fury. Astellaria, born of shattered stardust, is chaos incarnate. Marked for "recycling" (destruction), they should have vanished. Instead, they became the spark that turned cracks into flames.
The Revolution Begins
Amarantis is a city where perfection suffocated itself, and rebellion claws its way from the ruins. Here, truth isn't neat-it's wild, volatile, and unstoppable.
The glitch wasn't the end. It was only the beginning.
Step into Amaranthine Historica. Witness a rebellion born from ruins and a world reimagined from the ashes of its past.

The Sorcerer's Pet
He burned for control. She was born of chaos. Together, they'll shatter the laws that broke them-and forge a love fierce enough to change everything. - In a kingdom where magic is law and the powerless are sold like cattle, survival is a coin few can afford. Every season, the poorest are swept from the streets and auctioned off as Familiars - living mana batteries to feed the ambitions of greedy sorcerers. Forgotten. Disposable. Erissa expected pain when she was claimed by Lord Kaelen Carmentis - the coldest sorcerer in the court, and heir to one of the oldest bloodlines in the realm. She didn't expect the bond to awaken something inside her. And she certainly didn't expect that, in the silence between them, she would feel safe. But Familiars aren't meant to be felt. And whatever is growing between them... is breaking every rule. Because she was never meant to survive the system. She was meant to rewrite it - and burn the old world down in the process.Complete

MYTHIC LEGENDS: FLAME AND EMPIRE
The war storms at the Frontier... The gods are broken. The empire is burning. And the end has already begun. A warrior with no past unleashes power no mortal should wield. A young ruler clings to a dying crown as his people lose faith. A chaos mage, feared and revered, walks with death in her shadow. Amongst their ranks-two Rifter siblings, wilders of ruin, benders of space and time. Feared. Watched. Leashed by the most powerful. But even under chains, love blooms... and loyalty begins to shift.

Old gods stir, craving redemption through ruin. The Royal House fractures beneath betrayal. A founding father, long patient, now bares their intent- to seize the throne by force, by cunning, by wagering all that is. Their House's malice toward the flawed Royal line can no longer be cloaked. Love will test loyalty. Legends will bleed. And in the dying light of Ether-Space- The Aurora must not fall... Or all realities will burn. 🔥
ROSE in the SHADOWS
They said she was worthless. They said she was disposable. They tried to sell her like an object, to erase her existence from the world. Amara was twenty-four, a sharp-tongued lawyer with fire in her veins and scars that ran deeper than anyone could see. Betrayed by the only people who were supposed to love her, she stepped into a world where power was law, and every smile hid a blade. He was Zayden - ruthless, untouchable, the heir of a dark empire built on fear, blood, and control. His honey-brown eyes saw through lies, his hands could destroy worlds... yet something about her made him hesitate. Something about her defiance, her fire, her beauty... Rose. His parents wanted her used, manipulated, discarded. Her adoptive family had already tried. And he was supposed to obey. But Zayden doesn't obey anyone. Not even himself. In a mansion of secrets, danger, and whispered lies, their worlds collide. Sparks ignite, rules are broken, and the line between love and obsession blurs. In the shadows of power and deceit, can a fiery lawyer tame the darkness of a mafia king... or will the fire consume them both? Dark. Twisted. Addictive. This is a story of forbidden love, slow-burning desire, and a passion that refuses to be tamed.

She was born of a bargain, stitched from starlight and ruin, the last gift of a dying son to a goddess who loved thresholds more than mercy. 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐒 𝐁𝐋𝐀𝐂𝐊 entered the world with silver eyes that remembered every grave, golden hair that shimmered like a crown too heavy for any child, and a silence that unsettled even the house that raised her. The Blacks bred tempests, and she was a storm disguised as grace. Though long before her first breath, the constellations had written her fate. They named her for dawn yet clothed her in dusk, promising her to the boy who bore lightning in his scar. 𝐇𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐘 𝐏𝐎𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑-child of prophecy, boy marked by fate for death, the lamb to be slaughter and sacrificed. They found each other in corridors steeped in omen, their eyes meeting as if they had done so for centuries. His sorrow recognized her fury; her tenderness understood his ruin. Their love was not a choice but an inheritance, whispered by the heavens, sealed in the marrow of their bones. The world stood against them. As bloodlines demanded obedience, gods demanded payment, destiny demanded separation. Yet together they moved toward each other as planets do, colliding though they knew it would shatter the sky. Their love was no sanctuary. It was a doom both holy and profane, a sacrament carved into the stars with the same hand that wrote death.
Fall From Divinity
Sixty thousand years ago, the Gods waged war upon humanity-and won. From the corpses of the fallen Titans, five empires rose, carved from divine ruin: the Empire of the Rising Sun, the Dragon Empire, the Roman Dominion, Afri Terra, and the cursed land of Erevalon. Humanity was left shattered, bound by divine fear. Yet from their ashes, a new power emerged-Aura Cultivation, the art of defying heaven itself. Now, centuries later, peace is only an illusion. When a young hero-in-training, Jin, wakes to another day of exhausting drills and impossible destiny, he never expects that his next mission will lead him into the Akamizu Woods-the very ground where gods once fell. A mission that begins as a simple hunt... will soon unravel secrets that were buried since the fall of divinity itself. Because some legends were never meant to die. And some heroes... were never meant to rise. Will the gods rise again? Will the wielder of the Seed of Destiny break the chains of fate-or be consumed by it? When divinity falls... who will rise from the ashes?

RUDRATH
🜂 "Rudra: The Flame Without Name" (A Poetic Ode to His Journey) > Born beneath three moons' embrace, A crownless child, a throne displaced. No Cosma marked his mortal skin, Yet storms of fate still stirred within. > A prince in halls where silence reigned, Their smiles for others, love detained. No mother's warmth, no brother's cheer- Just servants' whispers he learned to hear. > He named himself. For none would dare. "Rudra," he said. "I breathe the air. My blood is thin, my heart is loud, I do not need their praise or crown."_ > With twin blades dulled by time and rust, He carved his strength through pain and dust. In forests dark, through cult and flame, He faced the void and earned his name. > A gem upon his brow would shine, A gift from Time and Space divine. Yet powers bloomed not out of grace, But will to rise despite disgrace. > He fell, he bled, he stood again, While nobles scoffed and kin disdained. Yet still he walked, alone, unknown- A soul of fire with heart of stone. > No god announced his coming bright, No comet flared across the night. But when the world begins to break, They'll learn the flame they did forsake. > He is Rudra- The Child Unchosen. The Star Reborn. The Sword Awoken.

Bed of Lies
They broke her trust. They broke his mind. Now the past is back-and this time, it wants blood. Victoria learned early how to survive in silence. Grief became her shadow. Guilt, her constant companion. Because if she had died that night instead of her mother... maybe everything would have been different. But the past doesn't stay buried, and when it drags her back into a world she barely escaped, silence won't save her anymore. Xavier learned how to disappear behind scars, rage, and the monster his past made him. A man shaped by violence, and driven by retribution. Victoria was everything he should avoid- soft yet unyielding, broken but still standing. She had the kind of pain that mirrored his own. She saw too much, pushed too far and worst of all, she made him remember something he buried a long time ago. He hated it. Hated her. Because she made him feel. What exists between them isn't gentle. It isn't safe or healing. It destroys. And when the truth comes for them both, they'll have to decide: Run. Burn. Or destroy everything in their path.Complete
