"An 876 :
Cela fait quelques décennies que le monde a radicalement changé. Les puits d'éther se sont embrasés et ont modifié durablement l'environnement terrestre. Les catastrophes naturelles ont par la suite détruit ce qui ne l'avait pas été et les continents ont été déformés. De nouvelles montagnes sont nées, des océans ont été asséchés et très peu ont été créés.
Le monde civilisé a appelé ça « Le Grand Bouleversement » avant de disparaître lui aussi. Désormais, le monde est régit par un nouvel ordre précaire, les anciennes villes devenues des ruines sont colonisées en masse par les survivants. En plusieurs dizaines d'années, très peu de véritables et authentiques factions sont nées et le seul mot resté est « colonie ».
En clair, les êtres vivants sont revenus à un état de vie presque tribal, et au milieu de tout cela, les retombées d'éther ont causé de nouveaux problèmes, comme la résurrection des morts ou la création de nouvelles créatures cauchemardesques.
Désormais, seule la survie compte. Vous faites partie d'une colonie moyenne situées à la frontière du nouveau désert de Milyar, faisant partie de la chaîne des colonies présentes sur la côte de l'océan de Pasthel. Votre but ? Il n'a pas de réelle importance, bien sûr, vous avez le vôtre, comme toute personne vivant dans ce monde...mais le plus primaire serait de voir à nouveau le jour se lever en vous couchant ce soir."
Dans un monde brisé par l'apocalypse, plusieurs personnages évoluent dans différentes intrigues.

All For Power
Al'ravee spent ninety-five years living the typical life of a mortal, only for him to wake up from his grave five years later to find out that he wasn't what he thought he was and that the last hundred years was just a scheme for his parents to raise the most perfect being in existence. Faced with his new reality, he quickly realizes that he has to drop his mortal way of thinking if he wanted to have a comfortable life in the vast universe. From planet busting spaceships to unique creatures capable of superhuman feats and magicians from other separate dimensions. Let's not forget his fellow gods that could reshape continents. With new the ideals, mentality, desire, and ambition he never new he could have, He decides to carve a path to reach his goal. The only question is ' To what extent is he willing to go to achieve the impossible.' " A lot of people want to reach the peak of existence for different reasons. Some are just power hungry others do it to support their righteous sense of self, he did it to bring his loved ones back to life, she did it for revenge and that guy just doesn't want to be pushed down by anyone. Well to bad for you. I am the bully who will continuously push you down. I am the one who you want revenge against. I am the one who killed your loved ones. I am that final boss that you just can't beat. I am the one who will take that power which you seek and crush you like the weakling you are. Do you know why" He said towards the army of demons and gods flying towards him. He got ready to jump off the tall building to confront them as he flexed his muscles. *BANG* Like a bullet, he shot off with explosive speed.

"Goodbye Curly Head"
Through thick and thin the Law shall prevail. A new sense of purpose awaits us, children of light, in the land where it all began. The darkness in which we once cowered in fear, now curbed by the might of our endless light. Come, brothers, come, sisters. Let there be peace among the wicked, just as the Law dictates. Peace and certainty is all that you have ever longed for, little angel. A bright, stable future. A roof without holes above thy head. Acknowledgement and recognition of thy existence, feverish dreams of grandeur. Greed born from yearning, treacherous vines of rapacity taint your innocent soul. You seek a future that does not exist. Let thy fingers hold the fragile line between dream and nightmare. Let thy light navigate the path. Shall thee give in and falter, O' land of old, envelop his body in thy unending flame of chaos. Spit out nothing but an empty husk, the remnants of a smile once so bright. Shall thee prevail, O', Great Kazdel, I ask of you, the impossible - take mercy on the innocent. Don't let the radiance dim and don't let the mind turn bleak. Wake, young traveler. Bid thy farewells and burn thy bridges. It's time to say goodbye, curly head. Cross post from AO3. For a shorter and more on-point description, look no further! I had something silly written up before throwing it out in exchange for that wall of text upstairs. It's a little story "about a young, dumb sankta who's been dealt a bad hand at life, looking for his place in all this mess. The pointless search for a better future leads him far, far away from home, to a country forever ravaged by war and misery - Kazdel, the promised land where devils roam free and peace feels out of place." Anyway, it's quite lengthy, but hopefully enjoyable? Slide a comment if you want, I'll give you a tiny kiss on the forehead. Man, do I love comments. (Lastly, to point out, English is not my native language, but I don't think it'll be much of an issue ;3)Complete
Void Infinity Initiative (VII)
[Fairy]: "There was an idea... An idea to face the chaos, to uncover the unknown, to balance the scales of survival and ambition. In the aftermath of the Hollows' emergence-those spatial anomalies that swallowed cities and birthed the ethereal monstrosities-humanity's existence teetered on the edge. New Eridu became the last bastion of civilization, thriving on the paradox of exploiting the very Hollows that threatened to consume it. Factions arose, each with their own ideals, goals, and methods. From the defenders of Section 6 to the opportunists of Belobog Heavy Industries, and the silent hands of Victoria Housekeeping to the enforcers of the CISRT, humanity splintered into groups, unified only by their struggle against the Hollows. But the cost of survival was high, and not all threats could be met with force alone. Beneath the surface of New Eridu's bustling streets and towering spires, secrets festered. The Hollows grew darker, their origins more cryptic. Ethereal phenomena began to defy even the brightest minds, and whispers of corruption began to spread. So what if an idea becomes a reality? An idea to assemble seven individuals unlike any other, these seven who risk their lives and identities to uphold an idea-an idea that could mean the salvation or destruction of their city. This is VII." DISCLAIMER: ZZZ doesn't belong to me. I only own my OC.
Universal Warfare
Hi there, I'm JD, a 31-year-old Venezuelan-Spanish Economist living in Barcelona with my Russian (pro-peace) wife Anna and our two kittens; we met in Italy eight years ago, and almost since then we have been working on this project. During our careers we've worked with people from South America to Japan, from Australia to Canada, from South Africa to Norway, the characters in the novel are based on people I was lucky enough to meet along the way who left me with invaluable lessons which we feel the duty and privilege of sharing with our fellow humans, hopefully sharing what cosmologists call "Space Bias". There are seven main protagonists each one with their own chapter - which can be read in whichever order you prefer, - two of them in present tense and the rest in past, it's all part of the story. They all have mixed backgrounds such as a Japanese father and a Taiwanese mother, a survivor of the Rwanda massacre, a Colombian with Lebanese and Portuguese ancestry, a Danish whose mother is German, a Jewish lady married to a Muslim man she met in Jerusalem, an Anglo-Indian guy inspired in a way in Orwell - character name is Arthur such as Orwell's real name, - and last but definitely not least a Turkish Muslim bisexual woman for which a Lebanese friend for work is providing help; my friend is working on her Ph.D. on gender inequality in politics, especially in countries with religious civil wars that have moved from the streets to parliament. The story's Universe - 7 trillion light-years, approximately 78 times the size of our observable universe and 252 times the size of a Hubble sphere - provides more than enough civilizations to present dystopias that can serve as warnings for the future - ideally in the style of 1984, A Brave New World, or Fahrenheit 451, - as well as utopias where we find A.E.I - Artificial Emotional Intelligence - along with futuristic ways of understanding childhood, education, and life itself.Complete

As the narrator, I'm tempted to simply write "Middle Finger" because that is essentially what you'll feel like I'm giving you in telling this story. However, for the sake of not being a complete dick, I'll write a little more than just a description of a disrespectful gesture. This story can aptly be described as crude and deranged. As you may have surmised, a crazy person will be telling this story, and the characters involved are indeed also all crazy in their own special ways. So, given this exercise in mental illness, the topics touched on (in no particular order) in this tale are destruction, death, superpowered wackos, torture, pain, loneliness, chaos, the will to survive, never giving up, giving up and not giving a shit, the desire to protect, failing to protect and causing more trouble than was already present, disappointing and/or abusive parental figures, bullies, unjust punishments, just punishments, racism, violent and usually superpowered fights, sci-fi gadgets, bitterness, sarcasm, twisted and demented comedy, control or lack thereof, weird and awkward high school drama, lies and brainwashing, alien aggression, moral ambiguity, unhinged villains, fantastical weapons, a piece of shit main character, conditional friendship, a fuck load of musical references, anger, fear, depression, extra-dimensional creatures, godly powers, various esoteric connections, pop culture references, and of course, in general, superpowers.Complete![The Ark of War (Crossover x Emperor male reader) [BEING REPLACED/SOFT REBOOT]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/327646392-256-k369445.jpg)

The Aeon of Dragons: A Tale of Epic Fantasy & Sci-fi
Eighty thousand years into the future, Earth is no more. This world is now called Lokar-a realm of strangeness, where humans struggle to survive alongside elves, orcs, goblins, vampires, merfolk, and dragons. Born from the genetic-engineering science of our present age, these species now fight to rule a world of sword and sorcery, war and blood. But Lokar's story is more than this. In orbit, the Sky People dwell-a breakaway civilization from humanity's forgotten past. Mythical and unseen, save for the drifting lights of their stations in the night sky, their name is whispered in reverence and fear. To most, they are only a legend. Until the sky falls. When a steel ship crashes onto Lokar, myth becomes reality. From the wreckage emerges Morse, a girl named with fire-orange eyes, bearing secrets as ancient as Lokar itself. Drawn by adventure, a young Lokari named Jason must join forces with this enigmatic fire-eyed girl to uncover the mysteries of their intertwined pasts and face a destiny neither could have imagined. The fate of Lokar and the stars hangs by a thread. As the veil between legend and history tears away, a truth long buried will rise to shape a future yet unwritten. These secrets have been whispered for millennia. Now, Lokar must listen. ------- Note: I publish a chapter 3 times per week on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I also do all of my own art, which you can see in each chapter. If you'd like to see more art, especially the stuff I can't publish here (*wink wink*), you can find that on my Patreon. I believe in world-building and rich characters. I also believe in big ideas. There is a bit of steamy interaction between the characters, but it's not the main focus!
