Essairyn had never felt truly alive on Earth. It felt like something was missing ever since she was born, but even after twenty years of mundane living, she could never pinpoint what this or the emptiness in her heart was. Suddenly, she awakens in a grandiose, primordial forest and encounters both demons and spirits in a parallel world called Sol'h'meyr. She befriends, in particular, a sassy fox-spirit named Akari who just reincarnated after three millennia. Essairyn is an abnormal human with elemental powers, and Akari is being chased by those of her dark past. Together, they set out on an adventure in a world of magic, danger, mystery, and intrigue. But this not a game. That simple adventure is actually the modest beginnings in a chain of disruptions that tear even the dimensional fabric of time and space. No one, not even Essairyn, was who she thought she was. And not even the gods can change the destiny of the universes... A single promise shook eternity's existence. - Fantasy || Adventure || Romance || Action || Mystery || Drama || Science Fiction - Expectations for this Story: Immersive adventuring experience inside an intricate, magical world. Vivid imagery and deep characterization. Quirky magic system with mysterious elements and history. An original spin on the classic portal fantasy/isekai/waking up in another world interweaved with a science fiction twist. Scattered allusions and easter eggs. Builds expectations of future events to then defy that prediction. Slow-burn romance and complex, realistic relationships. Seriousness with a dash of humor.

Twilight Aftermath: Kingdom ( Twiath: I ) by zstakuya
3 parts Ongoing
In a nightmarish vision, Chiaro Crepuscule watches as everything he loves is torn apart-angelic and demonic beings ravage his world for reasons he isn't even deemed worthy to know. Blood stains the shattered remnants of what was once a peaceful home, now a war-torn wasteland. Amid the chaos, Chiaro faces a twisted reflection of himself-an opposite who tasks him with one command: survive. Survive for those who perished. Moments later, the world shatters, and he wakes under a moonlit sky in an unfamiliar grassland. But something is wrong. Chiaro has no memory of who he is, no powers, no past-nothing but his name. Stranded in this strange new reality, he's thrown into the heart of a kingdom's turmoil. Verdara, a kingdom of modernity woven with wood and ancient customs, becomes the battleground of his survival. Rebels rise in search of a ruler. Ministers, lieges, and royal siblings clash in a web of political tension, while something far more sinister brews in the shadows. With no clear path, Chiaro is forced into their games-caught between power, rebellion, and secrets he doesn't even remember. But as he moves deeper into this world, something within him stirs-a voice, a feeling, an instinct to survive at all costs. Though he has nothing, Chiaro clings to the hope that surviving is all he needs to do-because somewhere within this fractured reality lies the truth of who he really is. As the threads of his forgotten past begin to unravel, Chiaro realizes that this kingdom may hold the answers to his dreams-or the key to a nightmare far worse than he could ever imagine. But can he survive long enough to uncover the truth? Or will the darkness close in before he learns what really happened in the aftermath of his shattered world?

However, when monsters from Alvar's world kidnap my best friend, I find myself whisked away to his realm marrying him anyway.
