Zero
Over time, there have been many social and political systems, this is probably the sixth imposed since the second era, all claiming to be different from their predecessor, but always maitaining two absolute invariables; the first is the one that will always be a marginalized class -which will allow a few to stay on top- and the second, the oppressed class that will be waiting for any opportunity to overthrow their oppressors. For better or for worse, I was born a Zero, the fact that I exist is already a crime and still, my family decided to be brave and keep me with them, hiding me in the shadows. They kept me for too long behind the back of the See. But now that I have empowered more than the darkness in which I was immerse; anonymity is no longer an option and it the time for Erst to know me has finally come.Complete

King Me
Sometimes things happen to us that we can't control. Sometimes we fight back. Sometimes it doesn't work and the consequences are more than we bargained for. We fall in love with people we shouldn't, go back to people we shouldn't. Make excuses for things that we shouldn't. Fight and manipulate those around us, for what? For the power and the glory. It's the year 3XXX and Royalty and politics just got a little more interesting. * This story contains many triggering events please don't read if you feel it may have a negative affect on you*Complete
