My wife and I fell in love with Peru the first time we visited. It cast a spell on us the first day we arrived, and we returned many times, each time focusing on a different area or a different part of its mysterious history. How was it possible for 180 Spaniards to conquer an Empire of 20 to 30 million people? What do the Nasca Lines represent? How did the Inca construct their big palaces and temples without steel tools, the use of the wheel, or animal power? These are some of the questions that fascinated and intrigued us and kept pulling us back to Peru. Share our experiences and adventures in this not well-known country, with a rich historical past and natural as well as anthropogenic wonders.

Pokémon Mars
Humans and Pokémon are colonising Mars, but good people aren't the only ones with their eyes on this new world. The first spaceflight of the Ares program launched 49 years ago. So far, the red planet hasn't been kind. Without spacesuits, few Pokémon can survive outside the bubble that protects the first town, Ironville. Humans certainly can't. Most of its 350,000 residents say they love it there, but jokes about the 'Mars madness' hide a sinister reality for those who disagree. Despite that, more people and Pokémon keep coming. Amongst the huge crew of Ares 24 are four scientists convinced they'll be the ones to terraform the planet and see Pokémon thriving in the wild: Callerya Mesquite Magnolia, Thalassa Hawthorn Harmonia, Joshua Pickett and Jin Oak. Nyx Harmonia is their security guard. Mercury Harmonia is their photographer. The latter two, however, have something else in mind: finding Nyx's great-grandfather Volo and Mercury's father Horace, who disappeared through an Ultra Wormhole 30 years ago. If Volo and Horace are on Mars, that means the people who kidnapped them also are. They may well have found fellow villains Team Genesis, who also disappeared in search of Mars many years ago... and then there are the members of the criminal syndicates Cipher and Team Plasma who somehow made it onto the ship. Survival, let alone victory, is unlikely this time around. -------------------------------------- ⚠️ Rated mature for language, violence and death. 🕑 Timeline: 266 years after Legends: Arceus, 105 years after Red/Blue, 100 years after Black/White, 92 years after Sword/Shield, 30 years after Out of the Woods (my last story) This is a sequel to Pokémon: Out of the Woods. You can enjoy it without reading my others first (all references to the past will be explained), but I'd strongly recommend it to avoid spoilers and get familiar with all the OCs and pairings.Lengkap
Dimensions and The Mysterious Asteroid
In a universe shaped by an ancient cosmic artifact-the celestial asteroid containing primordial energy from the Big Bang-the fabric of time and space fractures as the past, present, and future collide. This asteroid reawakens ancient powers and secrets long buried beneath the sands of history, intertwining the Prehistoric Age, the Dark Ages, the Magic Era, the Age of Alchemy, ancient civilizations, and the Technology Era. The disruption can be traced back to the New Year of Year 3000, a crucial moment when groundbreaking discoveries emerge alongside new technologies that include ancient books harboring magical properties, dimensional travel between Mars and Earth, the first official launch of virtual reality that can transfer your soul and body to a digital world and advanced time manipulation techniques that has been launch in the year 3000. This year will be the new era of the humankind, because of new discoveries defy the law of physics. It defies science and scientist can't stop this phenomenon in the past present and future. The archeologist discovers real magic artifacts, ancient books that can't debunked because the spells was activated. And some gemstones have magical properties that can fuel an entire city. The year 3000 heralded the eco-friendly era, yet it came with a dire consequence: the melting of vast portions of the Arctic and Antarctic, leading to significant global sea level changes. Despite this, the world's achievements in this period are remarkably impressive. "Disclaimer: AI assisted in writing this story.

Just A Reincarnation Story (Summoning Japan Edition)
"Unacceptable. If there's one thing that a conveniently appearing overpowered entity in this world has shown us, is that we are seen as weak and hopeless. I find that previous life's terms unacceptable. I want a better world. With these hands, I dare to seek a better world, and I will endure what I must to see it so." Achieving a world where Summoning Japan isn't needed is by no means easy, especially when that destiny is enforced through brutal impunity, but still- With his memories of his previous life, the Fate's Rebel decided to use his advance knowledge for the prosperity of his homeland. His ancestors may have set the grounds for the Holy Milishial Empire to shine high in the sky, but he will make sure that it will shine victoriously. Forever. ALTERNATIVE TITLE: Native character is so sick and tired of the constant ridicule that it made him time-travel post-mortem just so that he can defy the very idea of summoning conveniently overpowered entities. Oh, you don't like the HME? Too bad, they're thriving and prospering. DISCLAIMER: (Despite the story's tone of against the concept of Nihonkoku Shoukan, this is still a fan work of the novel Nihonkoku Shoukan/Summoning Japan, which belongs to Minorou-sensei.)

Grim Reaper's Handmaiden [Grim Books:1]
As a human, I've always wondered what's life after death. It's always there at the back of my mind. Will I ascend to heaven or will I get burnt in hell? I'm so immersed on the thought of it that I've never once questioned if angels or demons even exist. But even if I did, I won't have an absolute answer either way. The world we live in has so much more to it than what meets the eye. They're everywhere watching our every move, waiting for our last breath. And when our time comes he'll be there gladly to take us away. -- A/N: Regular release schedule: Once a week (Due to circumstances, I will be indefinitely updating.

Neolithic
The first agricultural revolutions began about 10,000 BCE in Egypt, China and Mesopotamia (Iraq). Trading require counting and the first written language; in general use by 2600 BCE. The first epic poem, Gilgamesh, was written in cuneiform. The first alphabet assigned Semitic characters to Egyptian hieroglyphs about 2000 BCE. It was adopted by the Greeks about 800 BCE and later modified for the Roman Latin alphabet. The Chinese built the first blast furnaces (using piston-bellows driven by waterwheels) and cast iron farm tools and weapons were common by 500 BCE. Austronesians sailed outrigger canoes over 6,000 kilometers from Taiwan to reach New Zealand from about 3000 BCE. About 100 BCE the Malays of Indonesia traded between China, India and Africa in sailing ships carrying 1000 people and a 260 ton cargo. The Greek navigator, Pytheas, sailed to the north Atlantic about 325 BCE where he recorded polar ice, the Midnight Sun and lunar tides. The Roman Prefect of Egypt (26-24 BCE), Aelius Gallus, noted 120 trading ships leaving Myos Hormos for India. WHO THE HELL ARE WE? is a series of short books and videos describing the evolution of civilization. Almost everyone on the planet is five times wealthier than their ancestors only 50 years ago. This astonishing phenomenon has also improved health, education, and longevity. The cause; an explosive growth in ideas and productivity. It began when we learned to control fire, evolved articulate speech and stumbled onto the way to create infinite wealth; free trade. The discovery of agriculture made us richer but we also learned how to destroy wealth. Great civilization grew up but then disappeared leaving only incredible ruins and ideas. Later books detail some of the ideas and developments that increased the average life span from about 40 years to more than 80 and the average world income from less than $3 to more than $33 per person per day (and to $140 per day in some countries).Lengkap
Red City on the Ocean
The year is 1483 AD, ten years before Christopher Columbus's famous voyage to America. In Aztlan, the Aztecs have suffered significant changes in their social and religious climates. Under the weyitlatoani Moctezuma, Aztecs ceased sacrificing those that share their faith and began a renewed focus on education, prosperity, and the discovery and conquering of new lands. With this new focus came new ventures, and a floating city was built to sail across the seas in search of adventure and led by divine guidance. Eventually, this floating city would reach the shores of Portugal. The Portuguese were wrought with their own struggles at this time. The land was flooded with refugees who had fled the Reconquista and more who fled the looming Inquisition in the neighboring kingdom of Castile. The newly crowned Portuguese king, Joao II, was obsessed with the sea and the discoveries waiting across unknown waters. He dreamt of building Portugal into a new maritime superpower, but the kingdom's coffers were dry, and to rebuild the treasury, he turned to the wealthy landowners, forcefully ridding them of their property to support the building of new ships and funding voyages. At the time of our tale, Joao II has decided to strike against the wealthiest and most influential dynasty in Portugal, the House of Braganza. Duke Ferdinand II de Braganza was an influential advocate of new liberal ideals growing in Portugal and dreamt of building a new parliamentary democracy based on the Portuguese Cortes. When Joao II makes his move, de Braganza has no choice but to organize a rebellion and strike back. In this alternative historical fiction, the worlds of medieval Europe and Aztec civilization meet and clash, illuminating many questions for all ages.Lengkap

Everyone has heard of the story. After the Knights betrayed the system, were executed for their crimes, and were forgotten to time, evil began to rise one more, even in the absence of the Divilamu. So the highest sorcerers and elites opened a permanent bridge to another world, known as the great Summoning, and brought with it, champions from an unknown dimension, blessed with incredible powers. They took the task of defending the land from the darkness, and creatures that tainted the light, and issued a new era of peace. More powerful than any other race, they quickly became the ruling class. Now they rule behind any government, hunting and destroying threats. With a wide range of abilities, they saw no resistance. They were called Aldaraians. Jack is a simple farmer, living in the comfy town of Rorin. Like 90% of the population, he is a normal human. He does not mind, as he had a loving wife and daughter. A daughter who dreams of joining the ranks of Aldaraians. Then Jack comes home and finds his family dead. He devolves into despair, and then, clear thought, and rage.

If gods from another dimension roamed, and did whatever they pleased. The old gods are nowhere to be found? The only gods are the ones that you see everyday? And most importantly, where is the line drawn, between Good and evil? Join Jack on this dark take on the implications of isekai. Will he get his revenge, or will he die, and life will stay the same as he rots in his grave?Lengkap
