Centuries and centuries ago...
In a land where Guardians, Nymphs, Heroes and Enemies exist; there lies a great dark spirit which has vanquished the land leaving this great dimension in darkness. This dark spirit has had domination over the world for so long. It has had a huge predominance in the every person, every single living thing on this world turning people and animals into vile beings, being mindlessly controlled by the dark spirit which has been contemplated into evil deeds.
Darkness remains in people to this day and will forever more. It transforms average human beings into the most dishonourable mutants who are killing people, hurting innocent ones and loosing loved ones. This is the story of an average human chosen by the legendary leaders of the world along with his allies uniting all their will to stop this dark spirit and set the world exempt from evil and to halt loss and death for eternity.
Will darkness prevail? Or will light ignite?

The Lycan's Bargain
"Please help me... I'll do anything. I just want my mother to live." I cried, tears streaming down my face in torrents, my body trembling in fear. Kael stared down at me, his glowering eyes devoid of any emotion and a chill ran down my spine. "Anything, you say?" He asked, pointing the edge of his sword against my neck and I stiffened, refusing to breathe. "Anything... " I whispered, my voice small yet resolute. A corner of his lips quirked up, not quite forming a smile. "How about my slave?" ***** She was supposed to be his captive, not his salvation. When Aira sneaks into forbidden Lycan territory to save her mother, she is caught and thrown at the mercy of the ruthless Lycan King, Kael Drathlor. In a desperate bargain, she trades her freedom for her mother's life. But as she becomes the king's unwilling companion, Aira discovers a terrifying truth-Kael is cursed, unable to die, unable to feel the mate bond that should tie them together. As dark forces conspire against them and Kael spirals further into self-destruction, Aira must decide: escape and save herself, or risk everything for the beast who might never love her back. In a world where fate is both a gift and a curse, can she break the chains of destiny before it's too late? 1 in Kael on 24/4/2025 1 in Captive on 26/4/2025 2 in dreamlandbooks on 26/4/2025 1 in beautyandthebeast on 27/5/2025 1 in historicalromance on 30/5/2025 1 in werewolf on 05/10/2025Complete

The Last Oath: The Decline and Fall
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"
BEYOND: The Nameless Eater
The spirits made manifest by mankind's consciousness seek nothing but tyranny and chaos, possessing humans and corrupting them into monsters. However, those with enough mental fortitude tame these spirits within them and become capable of controlling the powers of these spectral demons. In this Journal that I have salvaged, you'll follow the perspective of the blindfolded Damien Lopez, a boy (Probably) with more going on with him than what meets the eye in his struggle to reclaim the peaceful life robbed from him by the cold whims of fate and discover concepts along the way, such as 'Love', 'Friendship', 'Forgiveness' and most importantly, 'Clobbering the life out of demons'.

The hidden heir:Beyond the crown
In the high-tech, magic-touched kingdom of **Aurelia**, every royal is born into the spotlight - except one. **Princess Elara Vale**, the youngest child of the royal family, was hidden from the world after a prophecy declared she would "awaken what was lost." To keep her safe, her parents erased her existence from public records. She grew up surrounded by love from her siblings but always behind walls, longing to see the world for herself. When her secret is accidentally leaked, Elara runs away - not in rebellion, but in search of freedom, identity, and purpose. In the neon city of **Ravenport**, she meets **Kael Arden**, a quiet mechanic with no memory of his childhood and a strange amulet that glows in her presence. As they form a bond, they're joined by a group of unexpected friends - a hacker, a healer, and a street magician - each searching for their own truth. Together, they discover that Kael is the lost prince of the long-vanished Shadow Realm, kidnapped at birth, and that the prophecy ties both of them to the future of their worlds. Through their journey, Elara learns what it means to live beyond a title. Kael learns what it means to belong. And their friends - ordinary people with extraordinary hearts - become the family they choose. It's a story about **finding friendship, courage, and self-worth** in a world that often defines you by what you were born to be - not who you choose to become.

Thirty Credits
Kael Morrigan is nineteen years old and already broken. In a world where Gates tore apart reality and flooded seventy percent of Earth with monsters, there are no countries left-only Sectors. Walled fortresses where humanity's remnants huddle behind concrete and pray the next Gate doesn't rupture before the Hunters clear it. Seventy-two hours. That's all the time between survival and annihilation. Kael isn't a Hunter. He's a porter-the lowest, most expendable piece of the industry that keeps humanity alive. Every morning, Gate sirens wail. Every day, the countdown begins again. Every night, Kael comes home with contaminated lungs, bleeding hands, and barely enough to buy protein paste and recycled water. The Hunters call him deadweight. The corporations see him as replaceable. His neighbors avoid his eyes because they know he's just another corpse waiting for a Gate to claim him. But Kael gets up anyway. Binds his ruined feet. Shoulders his pack. Walks into the monsters' den. Not for glory or hope-those luxuries died with the old world. He does it because two girls in a freezing room need him to come home alive. In a world drowning in nightmares, survival isn't heroic. It's just refusing to quit when quitting would be easier than breathing. This is the story of how far one man will break before he's finally free. == If you'd like to support my work, you can check out my Patreon; it'll have advance chapters for free. Patreon.com/akibo
The Codex Morvalis: A Scholar's Testament
The Codex Morvalis: A Scholar's Testament The complete guide to a world where cosmic forces shape destiny. Magister Thaddeus Vallen breaks academic protocol to compile the most comprehensive guide to Morvalis ever attempted. After seven decades of cross-disciplinary research, this brilliant scholar risks censure to share knowledge the specialized academies have kept locked away in separate towers. From the cosmic forces that emerged from Primordial Chaos to the political intrigue of the Sovereign Pentarchy, from ancient bloodlines whose decline threatens reality itself to the shadow entities born from human trauma-this is the world in its entirety. Magic systems with deadly consequences. Cities where pattern-mages and storm-workers shape civilization. Families torn apart by ambition and cosmic forces beyond their control. But this isn't just worldbuilding for its own sake. Somewhere on a distant battlefield, a young man named Callan Tanner carries magical potential that could reshape everything-if he survives to claim it. The bloodline anchors are failing, shadow manifestations multiply in the darkness, and the delicate balance between creation and chaos grows ever more precarious. Twenty-two entries. One scholar's race against time to preserve knowledge before it's lost forever. A fantasy world where what we feel literally shapes what becomes real. Enter the Codex. Discover what lies beyond imagination.
The Hollow Crown
In the city of Veilrest, where shadows breathe and nightmares walk, power is a curse disguised as a gift. The once-glorious kingdom has been rotting from within, its throne left vacant after the royal bloodline was slaughtered in the dark of a moonless night. Now, the land festers under the rule of a nameless tyrant-one whose face is never seen, only felt in the whispers of the cursed and the screams of the vanished. Kastor Veyne never wanted to be a hero. With a metal-forged leg replacing what was lost to Veilrest's cruelty, he's learned that survival is the closest thing to victory. But when a prophecy names him as the rightful heir to the Hollow Crown, he's dragged into a war of monsters and gods-one he never asked to fight. By his side is Silas, a rogue with ink-stained hands and secrets older than the kingdom itself, and Lysara, a necromancer with a grudge against the living and an even greater hatred for fate. As Kastor unearths the city's buried horrors, he discovers that the Hollow Crown is not a throne-it's a prison. And the only way to break free might be to embrace the darkness he's spent his whole life running from. But power always comes with a price. And Kastor is about to learn what it means to lose everything.Complete
