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!

ASORA: From The Blood Of The Shadows by rinaXhazurina

FORMER TITLE: Élan: A Youngblood World "Beware that you become not the very monster you ought to slay." In a world where magic holds the essence to life, there is still no telling where fate determines your place will be. When the Cardinal Empire of Nyrhaea and its time-forsaken creatures declare war on the human world, an immortal dark entity in the guise of a human, a grieving swordsman, an electric-manipulating technocrat, an unhinged fire-breathing boy, and a magic-less girl whose very existence defies the Laws of Mahika, venture to stop the prophecied, apocalyptic world war. All the while dealing with the complications of entering adulthood. With the grotesque inside him growing hungrier by the day, threatening him of the looming hour to fulfill destiny's bidding to be the key to the end of the world--where death is an impossible remedy to attain--the entity resorts to a mysterious girl who could only be his last hope to achieve freedom from the shackles of fate. An antidote given not without an undefined price. But how long can he endure to bury the roots of the calling past? And what are they willing to risk to liberate a cruel world beyond saving that hangs in the state of trust and sanity? *~* Contains a few depictions of blood, violence, and eldritch elements.

Demon-Killing Sword by milee_s

A century ago, the demon king drowned the world in miasma. Demons everywhere went mad. Peaceful shopkeepers tore apart their human patrons. Child demons devoured their human friends. No longer could demons speak. They had become mad beasts intent upon killing. With no other recourse, humankind retreated behind a wall and sent forth their strongest heroes, wielding the demon-killing sword. It was hoped that this sword could even slay the demon king, source of the miasma. All was in vain. The heroes failed. The sword was lost. And so a hundred years pass, until a scrappy part-demon scavenger finds the ruins of the sword. With rabid demons beating at the walls, she sets out across the wasteland of a once-vibrant land to defeat the demon king and carve a new fate for all of humanity. Part Journey to the West/Saiyuki, part Volsunga saga/Nibelungenlied. Updates at least weekly, more depending on production speed. Lovely cover by @witchoria!
