A cliched B-list survival scenario: a zombie apocalypse. Just, a bit different. The zombies... stronger. The apocalypse... longer. And the heroes of the story? 

▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰

According to Wikipedia, humans are terrestrial animals, characterized by their open-ended and complex language use compared to other animal communications and highly advanced and organized societies, among other things. Humanity has engaged in rhetoric and mythos for as long as it has existed. In fact, some of the ancient stories still remain, the Epic of Gilgamesh being an example commonly brought up. But what if the mythology of humanity was more than just that? What if a large portion of it was actually grounded in reality?

Take a zombie apocalypse, for instance. Originating from Haitian folklore, the zombie made its way into pop mythos. We all know that they aren't real; even the US government uses them in exercises to make the situation fictional.

But what if these zombies were real?

Avarice Blacksteel Book 2 by Xonereth

Most of us long to "Be" but when the path gets too costly, or steep, we take solace in what we "Have." Remove the trappings of what we own and then what is the sum of us? They were the survivors, abandoned by the allies who swore to protect, in the ultimate gesture of greed and betrayal. Their world plunged into annihilation and chaos. With the passage of years in this blighted landscape order was established anew. Those who had been anonymous before the war found their will to rule, those who had experienced the comforts and ease of western life, thrust into darkness and despair. This brutal conflict had awoken those long sleeping, those who had ceased to care, those of immense power, the ones entrusted with the safe keeping of the often volatile mankind. Although their parallel world too was at risk, lethargy and arrogance ruled them. Against the backdrop of this savage landscape the saga of three such tribes of survivors unfold, and the unwitting chosen among them. One tribe sought to prosper via savagery, one by organized military might, and the other who ruled with no more than fairness and love. Three tribes thrown together, competing for the limited resources to survive, in a world teetering on the brink of total decimation. Driven by human avarice.

Festival Of The Gods [OLD VERSION] by Minosta

What would you do if, after getting drunk in a party and passing out somewhere you don't remember, you woke up in a cart that is pulled by a horse with two people speaking weird language and wearing white sheets over their bodies? You panic, obviously. Era never believed in Gods and magic. Why? Because it wasn't explained by scientists. She doesn't even change her view when she is thrown down the time hole and back to the ancient Greece -time when people believed in everything, especially Gods of the Olympus. But her talk of "Gods don't exist" lands her into a festival of the Gods - a festival where people marked by one of the Gods of the Olympus fight for their life by performing something sociated with the god that they represent. And she is supposed to survive when she is marked by the God of the Underworld himself. He goes by the name of Hades. 2# in Festival 2018/05/20 123# in Gods 2018/05/26 2# in Ancient Greece 2018/05/31 Cover by PhoenixOfStorys

𝐅𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐒 (MODERN AU) ||HERMES X ALT. FEM READER|| by DragonWhiskers12

"ꜱᴜꜰꜰᴇʀɪɴɢ ɪɴ ꜱɪʟᴇɴᴄᴇ ɪꜱ ʙᴇᴛᴛᴇʀ ᴛʜᴀɴ ꜱᴜꜰꜰᴇʀɪɴɢ ᴡɪᴛʜ ʏᴏᴜ." You never believed in things like gods. To you, they were simply things less educated people used to explain things you already knew. That was until... the incident. You were walking home at night after a run to Hot Topic with one of your friends when something unexpected happened on the crosswalk. To others, it looked like you stumbling out of the way of a car being driven by someone obviously intoxicated. But you saw something else. Someone else. A man who wasn't there before pulling you onto the other side of the road as you froze like a deer in headlights. Days after, you couldn't take your mind off that incident. Something about that stranger seemed.. off. Not entirely human. You never got a good look at him to determine what was so wrong, and you thought you'd never get the chance to. That was until he came back. Hello friends! Welcome to my second greek mythology fan fiction! Updates might be slower with this one than my other story, Divinity, but I wanted to start another project before I lost the passion I had behind this idea. Basically, we have an emo Y/N who found a new meaning and joy in life after almost dying, and a chaos deity who saved her life because he was bored. Y/N doesn't really have a specific style, she kind of just dresses alternative in general. So don't be surprised if she's dressing grunge one chapter and mall goth the next. I use emo as an umbrella term a lot of the times, so thats what I mean when I say it.

Anoxia by SylviaSplatt

Xylia has always teetered between madness and prophecy. For years she's dreamed events before they happen a gift that's left her paranoid, unstable, alone. In a world where consciousness is a bug and gods are algorithms with ego problems, Xylia will learn that reality isn't meant to be understood. It's meant to be rewritten. Here, divination is a sentence. And knowing the truth... is the first step to losing yourself. ✒️✦ This isn't a book. It's a gradual collapse. You won't find maps. You'll find glitches. Not heroes. Fractures. Not worldbuilding. But worlds that come apart while you watch. Xylia is a contaminated consciousness. She overthinks. She mis-feels. She fixates on details no one else sees. That doesn't make her wrong. It makes her real. If you feel lost, good. If you feel unsettled, stay. In this world, coherence is a lie. And breath... is something you learn only when it's gone. Welcome to Anoxia. The first 5 chapters in English are now up! Next batch (chapters 6-10) coming this Friday. This is an ongoing self-translation project - raw, glitchy, and deeply personal. Thanks for reading, bleeding, and glitching with me. 🖤 I'm Italian and I'm translating my novel myself-so if you spot errors or phrases that could be smoother in English, please tell me. You'd be helping me immensely! 👁️ Read Anossia and tell me what crosses your mind. Your comments are the heart of this project.

World Saga: A Vessel Unbound by Clusterveil

What if the myths were never wrong - just waiting? The world changed the day the towers appeared- impossible monument of stone, sand, and something older than any history. They rose overnight, each pulsing with a power stranger than any other. The fallout was immediate. Governments scrambled. Religions fractured. And myth began to blur with history-until neither could be trusted. Inside each tower, something ancient waited, offering power to those brave-or desperate-enough to listen. Shin was just a student when the towers came. A nobody with nothing to lose. But he walked into the storm and emerged as something else. Now, he hunts what others fear to approach-chasing the truth behind the towers and the divine beings within them. But the higher he climbs, the more the truth begins to twist. The towers aren't doors. They're warnings. And what lies beyond them... is no longer waiting to be found. What to expect: - A competent, strategic MC - Multiple worlds - Unique power system blending cultivation and magic - Rich lore and layered mysteries inspired by Tower of God, Percy Jackson, and Lorien Legacies

Aidonean Empire the Titanomachy by Ink_Odyssey

(A rewrite of the King of the Gods the Titanomachy) I remember the life I lived before this one-a life of fleeting mortality, ignorance, and helplessness. But that life ended, and in its place, I was reborn-not as a man, but as Hades, eldest son of Cronus, King of Naziru, First Throne of the Triarchs, Supreme Chief, All-Father of the gods... the architect of destiny itself. I was given a second chance to rewrite the past, to bend time and power to my will, for the Great Devourer comes-a force that will consume everything I love, every world, every life. And I will not fail. I will master all pantheons, forge empires from the bones of gods, and carve my name into history so absolute that even eternity will bend to my design. I am Hades. I am the king of all thrones, the inheritor of every divine secret, the master of life, death, and fate. The world may tremble at the shadow of my ambition, but it is my world to protect-and my enemies, even gods, will learn that I am no mere son of Cronus. I am its savior, its conqueror, and its last hope. #ReincarnationFantasy #ModernGods #MythologyReimagined #GreekMythology #TimeTravelFantasy #DarkAcademiaMythos #GodRebirth #EpicFantasy #PoliticalIntrigue #DivineDrama #FoundFamily #ProphecyAndFate #FromMortalToGod #HadesPOV #RebirthOfTheOlympians

Beyond Infinity: The Convergence by SirNonchalant

The earth has been ravaged by war, and all that is left of humanity is on an iron island out in the middle of the Atlantic ocean. It was a paradise, because on Olympus, they were gods, or so they were made to believe. The inhabitants of Olympus were untouchable, beyond simple human desires like greed, hate and violence. Unfortunately for them, they seemed to have incurred the wrath of actual gods, nightmares, and monsters. And so, they have been forced to flee their 'heaven' for greener pastures, but before then, they'll have to pass through hell. Monsters, demons, nightmares and gods are only supposed to exist in the world of imagination, and that's exactly where they came from. And it just so happens that to survive, they'll have to enter the human mind, they'll have to invade the world of imagination, but what horrors must await them in such a place, depraved of reason and logic, perverted by man's desires and sick mind.

The Last Oath: The Decline and Fall by Bob12mob

What happens when narration becomes magic and monsters become stories? When meaning crumbles beneath the whispers of tales, and certainties drown in the din of words, truth wears a thousand faces at the windows of night. Survive. When the untold fades, and the unseen is lost. Endure. As kingdoms fall and life ebbs away, as souls awaken only to cage themselves within the lines of pages. Fight. For what remains is a silent longing to wake again, upon the shores of a dream unborn. ------------------------------------------------------------ A multi-character fantasy tale set in a world that has forgotten how to define itself, where eras chase one another in confusion. Knights confront the unknown, detectives battle dragons, and vampires raise dogs. The stars are wrathful, the kingdoms have fallen, and magic stands stripped bare. ---------------------------------------------------------------- For those who do not like indirect suggestion: A cruel, innovative magic system A dark fantasy that blends classic fantasy, horror, and the supernatural. Long story and slow build (although you can judge it in the second chapter) Multiple characters and a big world Exploiting (inspiration from) myths, epics and legends in worldbuilding Legends from all over the world: Europe, Africa, America, Middle East, Australia, Asia, Ireland etc. Mystery, investigation, and the need to analyze, focus, and use your knowledge and abilities to reach conclusions and form your opinion before the characters do (you are part of the investigation, not just the characters) Warning: "Contains graphic violence" "Not suitable for children"
