Everyone who touches you transforms you, if only a little. But if you enter their minds, think what they have thought, in effect do what they have done, how complete will that transformation be?
If he had been born an ordinary man, his family would be safe--safe as anyone can be in a land torn apart by war. It is his singular gift, however, that causes his wife and children to be imprisoned and held hostage and him to be used as a tool. Caught up in a struggle between opposing warlords and refusing to play the game, Peniff elects to take the moral high road. This is the story of a man, in all other ways ordinary, rising above his fears to do what he must. Can he free his family before his betrayal comes to light? Moreover, what will he become before his journey is over?

Techno Knights - Corruption of Heroes
The third installment of the Techno Knight Saga. Centuries ago, Tim, a Techno Knight gifted with 'Forever Young', was summoned alongside fifty heroes from Earth to vanquish a rising demon lord. Their fight is over. But three hundred years later a new demon lord rises and fifty more heroes are summoned. But as the battle neared, Tim refused to join them, choosing instead a path of solitude, weary of war and the cycle of destruction that came with it. He thought they could handle it without him. He was wrong. The hero mages, once summoned as Earth's greatest champions, fell to temptation, power twisting them into tyrants as cruel as the enemy they were meant to destroy. Cities burned. Villages were slaughtered. And Tim, the one who might have stopped it, watched in silence, paralyzed by the weight of his own regret. Now, he has sworn to end them-to stop the heroes who betrayed their purpose, to erase the horrors they've unleashed upon the world. But everything changes when Tama, a kemonomimi survivor of their cruelty, stumbles into his life. Scarred by loss, shaped by solitude, she is living proof of the devastation Tim failed to prevent. Yet, instead of hatred, she offers him trust-a fragile bond built through shared grief, quiet understanding, and the possibility of redemption. Together, they must navigate a world ravaged by war, haunted by memories, and teetering on the edge of collapse. Can Tim truly atone for his inaction? Can Tama move past her scars? Or will the specters of vengeance consume them both before they have a chance to heal? A tale of war, redemption, and unexpected sanctuary, this story explores the blurred lines between heroism and monstrosity, solitude and found family, guilt and the hope for something more.Complete
