TWO WORLDS. ONE NEVER-ENDING CYCLE.

The year is 396 of the Ninth Era. The Twenty Year War has ended, giving rise to a new age of fear, oppression, and doubt.  The survivors of this devastating conflict seek to make sense of an uncertain future... whether it be by going along with the system, or rejecting it entirely and carving out a life in the unforgiving darkness of outer space. 

A military police recruit fighting her way through her trauma, disillusioned with the authoritarian system in which she exists. A mob enforcer with the ability to bend states of matter, running from what he has done. A humble man with modest ambitions, pulled into a conflict he doesnt understand. A disgraced investigator, seeking to clear his name and restore his honor. 

As revolutionaries rise and the ruling class seeks to establish its dominance, the false peace that everyone has clung to will fall. All it will take is a single spark.

BEST ACTION/ADVENTURE (2ND PLACE)- THE ACE AWARDS 2019

"Imagine yourself on a roller coaster. While you're reading the beginning, it's like the roller coaster is ascending to the big drop. You can tell (expletive) is about to go down. You can feel the anticipation in your gut and when that drop finally does happen, its nonstop, balls-to-the-wall ride until the end, leaving you in an emotional wreck, but wanting more and more."

First Light of a New Age by TIMEMASTER101
115 parts Ongoing
In a distant realm where magic thrives, ferocious beasts shake mountains and rivers with their mighty roars, and individuals wield superhuman strength capable of reshaping their surroundings. It is a magical world where the strong rules. But rampant corruption and chaos exist, where slavery, rape, murder, and discrimination against the weak were all but common. The magically superior people trample over the lesser unfortunate folks, using them as stepping stones and disposable assets. All hope for these downtrodden souls seems lost, but the wheels of fate have other plans for them. In a faraway ocean, one that is filled with demons and sea monsters, a great technological civilization suddenly appeared, one that came from a world that is only filled with chaos and destruction. This civilization became the heaven for people seeking a stable and peaceful life. The Earth rose and seas parted ways, and the environment had totally changed for its adaptability. Unfortunately, the inhabitants of this great technological civilization are all but manaless, arriving in a world where they are seen as inferior and as slaves. How will they react of finding themselves in a world where people can split mountains or bend the fabric of space, and where beings exist that even conventional weapons cannot defeat? How will they survive against deadly monsters, magical beasts, and superhumans that could threaten entire nations? And how will the other powers that exist in this world react to a powerful, advanced nation filled with a race they deem inferior? This is the story of one of the most powerful empires on Earth, and how it broke the balance of power and rose to the top.
