This is not a redemption story. This is the unraveling of a mind built to survive, a life that refused to break until it did, and a woman who has never been just one thing. Told through fractured memories, relentless introspection, and the weight of choices that were never choices at all, this book explores the paradox of existence-what it means to offer without sacrifice, to be unbreakable by breaking, and to see the universe while knowing it will never truly see you back. A story about inevitability, identity, and the battle between Chaos and Order-within the world, within others, and most of all, within yourself. Trigger Warning: This book contains discussions of trauma, abuse, mental illness, suicidal ideation, and the brutal realities of existing in a world that demands you be something you are not. Read with care.

heartless act i: lanterns lit by Nikolay-Rene

i pushed them away, that's my guilt and made him weep, unintended. but i broke the lanterns i lit they won't find me, disoriented. three stories are tangled together. my own story: it's me being hidden among my own fears and pain, brought to me by circumstances or certain people. fuyunoyuki's story: tale of a winter's son, Yuki, who was born in the world, which he wants to discover. revenoire's story: a novella about a light magician, who lost his powers and became a twilight sun sorcerer.

A collection of poems and short stories interwoven in a larger narrative that served as a way for me to work through burnout. The tale of Estavir is a metaphorical dive into my burned out mind as he searches for deeper meaning and climbs Mt. Sensan-Ghi filled with trials to test his heart. This is my first published work of fiction. It was conceptualised during a burnout I experienced back in 2017. With support from family, friends and a professional with whom to talk, I tried working through the burnout over the period of a year. At each stage of my journey I created a story to help me process. It's bizarre, a bit dark slightly existential and close to my heart. Please enjoy.

I've Felt It: Stories and Various Writings by RennoBnel

A man about to confront his personal guilt and questioning his faith towards God to a dying priest. A woman in the process of closure and forgiveness talks to the spirit and ashes of her dead loved one swirling in the air. An old giant fur creature spends his final days with the children he loves in the woods of Hinaizu. Hinaizu, with its many secrets and history to unravel in various stories. A love story about two spirits born in the same sex bodies, oblivious to finding themselves back in another life as soulmates to be married and bound for each other. A strange man from the older era converses to someone regarding humanity and its spirit despite the age of technology. An astronaut sets his course of destination to a nearby planet where he will give humanity hope to once again be a part of life itself. These tales of loneliness, isolation, longing, grief; bittersweet love and hope; perseverance and care are like feelings buried beneath the ocean of tears and of water lapping across the shoreline in the quietness of the setting sun soon turning into night that reveals the darkness that we hide within ourselves. Personal, provocative and passionate, I've Felt It: Stories is a work that elevates the need of human connection in the times of where we thought everything is lost in time's embrace yet through the tunnel of darkness that we go through in our lives, there is sometimes a trace of hope to be found in this world of troubling times. Language: English Date published: Month of July 2024 Date finished: ?

This collection of short stories and poetry focus on themes such as love, loss, heartache, and depression. Most of the works are fictional, though some are personal narratives. They have been written as a way to navigate myself through the darkest parts of my life.

Based on moments.
