A young soldier comes back from a campaign and finds himself prospecting a claim -- a small territory in a dead city where he has the right to search for ancient technology, or possibly magic. What is he looking for, and how did he come to possess the claim?

This is first draft copy -- raw words, posted daily, as I write them. Tell me what you think! THE CLAIM is projected to be done in mid-January, 2015. If you're interested in process notes and essays about the writing, they're posted in "THE CLAIM: DEVELOPMENT DIARIES"; or you can check out my blog, linked in my profile.All Rights Reserved

Fleeting Dream by Spooderman12435

This is my first time writing anything at all. The only reason this exists is because a scene that hasn't been written yet came to me in a dream, and when i woke up i felt compelled to write. I've moved over to Webnovel. I will publish one more chapter here and the same chapter will be copy and pasted to Webnovel at the same time. I don't know if this is permanent yet, but I want to see how it works out. All the chapters currently on this site have been posted to Webnovel. Thank you for the few that have viewed this story on here.

Lost Soul's Escapades (Wattpad Release) by J-Win-Writesss

A man, stolen from his life, his memories erased by years of torment. No home to return to, no name to claim, no one to remember him... Everything reduced to nothing. In a world where humanity's depravity has reduced everything to nothing, will he find a reason to live? What about you? Will you persist, or will you hang yourself knowing nothing will change? What to expect: > Stoic MC > Character-centric story > Fantasy elements (if that's not already obvious) > Sci-fi elements (physics be damned!) > Warfare > Leaning into psychology > Simplified military doctrines, tactics, and operations (don't confuse the three!) > Romance...? Maybe.

THE SEVENTH PROTECTOR by KarlOConnor

I had the idea for this story back in 2007 though I didn't begin writing it until early April 2009 and it would be June 2013 and then again in December 2018 when the story would be resurrected and an attempt would be made to improve it. What I hope is a final edit, comes in October 2022. This story also inspired me and gave me a basis and a few ideas to go on and write my first novel length story THE PATHFINDER MISSION.

State of Mind by knherzner

Book 1 of 3 *Began: Monday, October 15, 2018* *Finished: Friday, November 16, 2018* I sat down at a desk with my laptop open and a cup of tea. From there I just let my imagination go wild. My fingers wove the worlds that my mind told me to. This was the outcome. This was the product of that madness. This is the state of my mind. **NOTE: I own all the characters/stories/photos used in this book. Please do not try to claim any of my work as your own without proper crediting.

State of Soul by knherzner

Book 3 of 3 *Began: Monday, October 7, 2019* *Finished: Friday, November 8, 2019* I sat down at a desk with my laptop open and a cup of water. From there I just let my imagination go wild. My fingers wove the worlds that my soul told me to. This was the outcome. This was the product of that spirit.

Field of Vision by PrivyOps

I have no real experience in the military. Just putting that out there. I'm 8th grade. This story contains quite the blood scenes but I've died them down. In the works. No cursing. I feel like mature is for adults, so I didn't want to put it here but the blood convinced me. Enjoy reading. If you can. Oh, it's long for your information. For an 8th grader, that is.

Paths Beyond (Under Rewrite) by DeoxyNAcid

In the frozen wilderness beyond the village walls, survival isn't guaranteed-it's earned. Grey, a sharp-eyed young hunter gifted with the ability to see ethereal threads of light connecting all living things, walks a thin line between life and death with every step into the snowbound forests. His gift is his greatest tool-and his deepest secret. When the Grand Hunt leads Grey and his squad to a chilling encounter with a monstrous creature and a group of robed strangers led by a sinister old man, the world he thought he knew begins to crack. Ancient powers stir beneath the frost, and the old man's magic reveals a truth far more terrifying than the dangers of the frozen woods. As the village reels from loss, Grey finds himself facing impossible choices. His gift, once a quiet advantage, now feels like a curse drawing him deeper into a conflict he doesn't understand. Shadows whisper of forgotten paths-ancient roads walked by those who sought strength not just to survive, but to transcend. Paths where power can be cultivated, honed, and wielded by those willing to sacrifice everything. But power always comes at a cost. Blood stains the frost, alliances are tested, and every step deeper into the unknown pulls Grey closer to a path he may not be ready to tread-a path where strength isn't just survival, but transformation. And in the depths of the wilderness, where cold winds carry secrets and danger lurks with every shadow, Grey must decide if he's willing to pay the price for what lies beyond.
