Ninja fade through the shadows. Tengu wings flutter in the branches. Magic works and the samurai of Hywhen seethe against the indignities the mages heap upon them. Divisions wrack the Imperial Court. To the west, the Teutons, both Prussian and Mansurian, look in horror as the thunderheads of civil war gather over their allies the Hywheni. Allies they will badly need soon, for the copper-bloods on their borders are stirring, ready for slaughter. And behind it all, the demonic klchzak pull the strings on their puppets, eager to regain their dominance over the world and all the peoples they have kidnapped and put there.
Amidst all this, a boy who has died once already finds Death and, all unwilling, seeks his destiny.
Welcome to the world of Noruth, where little is what it seems!
I will be adding chapters on a fairly frequent basis. Book 1 and Book 2 are complete. The final book is currently being written.

The Crownless Lands
Welcome, traveler. Step into the Crownless Lands-a realm that should have been golden but never was. The maps still show grand borders; the songs still promise glory. But up close you'll find frayed banners, broken vows, and people trying to live between the teeth of history. Here, adventurers hunt fortunes that refuse to be found. Heroes rise late or fall early. Lives are traded, stolen, and sometimes-miraculously-saved. And the creatures? Some stalk the roads and terrorize the villages. Others arrive with a lesson sharp as a blade. And the kingdom's worst monsters wear crowns made of lies. --- What You're Getting Into: A weekly high/dark-fantasy pulp serial-fast, moody, full of intrigue, sorcery, and razor twists. Each episode lands a complete beat and ends on a cliffhanger. Where It All Unravels: A continent under a failing crown: forts crumble, roads go quiet, new rules harden. Towns and frontiers fend for themselves-more grit than resources. Bloodlines, Beasts & the In-Between: Shifts among humans, elves, dwarves, orcs, and classic creatures-some scourge, some uneasy allies. How the Story Moves: Chapters leap across the map, braiding many plots into one struggle. Local skirmishes mirror the bigger fight for a crown no one can hold. The People Worth Bleeding For: An ensemble of adventurers, exiles, heirs, and schemers. Not every arc finds light-some rise late, fall early, or trade all for one mercy. Your Weekly Drop: New chapters every Thursday, 6-10k words. Each deepens the world, sharpens the cast, and drives the saga-great for weeklies and first-timers. Important Note: The story follows multiple destinies; chapters are non-sequential and jump between plots across the Crownless Lands.

shadow heir
Synopsis It is a fantasy story about our main character, Jaron, a seasoned warrior and devoted father, who is determined to protect his child from a dangerous and mysterious fate. As the story unfolds, the threats surrounding them grow ever more perilous, drawing them into a world of ancient rivalries, supernatural powers, and political intrigue. There's a timeskip in wich we see how our characters grow and how they meet more people along the way. As the looming threat gets closer and closer. What begins as a struggle for survival becomes a sprawling adventure filled with unpredictable allies, fearsome enemies, and shocking revelations about the past. Along the way, humor and heartfelt moments balance the tension, making the journey as fun and lively as it is dangerous. The stakes rise with every chapter, leading to epic battles, cunning strategies, and intense duels that test not only strength but also bonds of trust and loyalty. With each step forward, the journey expands into uncharted lands, revealing new kingdoms, powerful clans, and forgotten legends. This is a long, ongoing saga-one that I'd love to see brought to life as a manga or anime-and I'll keep updating the series as the characters grow, the challenges mount, and the danger closes in. I would love for an artist to be co writer when we make a manga if adjustments are needed. Expect an unforgettable adventure full of battles, action, and heart. ---

A Hashira's Daughter(Tanjiro x reader) (DISCONTINUED)
Y/n Uzui was the daughter of Tengen Uzui and grew up in the Sound Mansion with her four parents. It was a weird experience growing up like that, being stuck in an endless loop of "go ask your mom." Her breathing technique? Light breathing. Manipulating the constructs of light to her advantage. She had trained every day since she decided to become a demon slayer. As her father would call it, the flashiest of all. demon slayer does not belong to me neither does the cover art I know the watermark on the corner says sir weebalot but thats my old account lmaoComplete![His Fourth Wife [Tengen x Reader]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/377933821-256-k888800.jpg)
His Fourth Wife [Tengen x Reader]
This a story of a 18 years old girl, Y/n, who became the 4th wife of the Sound Hashira, just because her parents thought of her as a burden and made her get married with a person who was from the Uzui clan the famous Shinobi clan. At first she hated the idea of getting married at such an young age but later when she looked around, she saw many other girls smaller or about her age are having a peaceful happy life with their husband and even some had children too. So, she decided that it would be much better to get married than the torturing life she is leading by living with her abusive parents. No one knew about Tengen being the Sound Hashira of the Demon Slayer corp and few didn't even knew that what demon slayer corp is but Y/n knew. How? Because she herself was training secretly to join the corps as the final selection was going to be held with 2 months, the month just before hers and Tengen's marriage. But it looked like Tengen and Y/n both knew each other from before they got married. But why? Wasn't the marriage arranged?
