He was a hero. He was respected, beloved, with the title of The Thing of Eyes and Teeth won from battle that he could carry like a trophy. Thousands of the Stained that came over the mountains at the Crack of Dawn had fallen by his hands. Xoris could recite this to himself daily, but it was getting harder to deny the urges and instincts that lay restless beneath his skin, immoral, invasive thoughts keeping him awake.

When a failed mission from the king wracks him with guilt beyond his handlings, Xoris leaves the kingdom of Korim to the edges of the crack in the sky. No quest, no final destination in mind, with the only Beast to slay being the voices in his mind, and the only treasure to seek, himself.All Rights Reserved

The War For The Pallid Throne by mschul20

The world trembles as the Leviathans stir from their slumber, and the scholars of the sunken valley preach of the coming storm. Felix, a thief on the streets of Bruma, begins his journey to the Astralarium as, deep with the Great Devourer's belly, a war has started among the engineers. Persephone, shepherd of the wicked eight. Xerxes the hollow spear. Icarus the rat king. These are the greatest names of the pantheon of war, and they rise again to do battle on the plains of Kath'le Kal. High above come the black bolts of Xerxes's artificial tempest, and below are the towering behemoths of Icarus's horde. Persephone, too, waits in the shadows, her pod born in the rivers of blood beneath the sands. Soon will come the wails and gnashing of teeth as they shape their broods and kill each other beneath the pale glow of their mother's tonsil. Sweet, savory, and sour, the Pallid Throne is ripe for the taking. But only one can be crowned the victor.

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.

The Barrowland Slayers by VictorSerranoWriting

Humans have proven the most obstinate, yet they have forgotten the lessons that led to the War of the Great Coalition. That short-lived race has now spread into the shattered former battlefields of that conflict, building villages atop barrows of ancient dead, toiling away in mines better left abandoned.

Under Gynefra's leadership, a new War of the Great Coalition must be waged-yet this time united in struggle against the Twisted One, who threatens to devour their realms.

Night Disease by kipekipe

REVISED EDITION COMING OUT MONTHLY/COMPLETED In a world overrun by zombies, A single bite heralds doom - except for Kaindra, who defies death itself, being undead already. ******** As humanity struggles to adapt to the new reality of zombies-infested streets and lurking supernatural creatures from ancient myths and legends, survival becomes an ever-evolving challenge. Survival is a constant battle not only against the undead but also against supernatural creatures and their zealous followers. The relentless onslaught of zombies and the mysterious reemergence of mythical beings push society to its limits. Civilization's last bastions fall one by one, teetering on the brink of collapse. As these ancient myths awaken, they reveal intentions that are far from clear- some may hold the key to salvation, while others could herald further doom. The question remains: Can humanity unravel the mysteries of these legendary beings in time to save themselves, or will they fall prey to the very legends they once dismissed? ___ Excerpt: Taking a deep breath, I lean closer to the mirror, my skin prickling. I thought it was a trick of the light, but as I stare at my reflection, my fragile lies crumble away. The reflection staring back at me feels unrecognizable. My once deep, dark brown eyes now glimmer with an otherworldly light, like twin moons suspended in a sea of silver. The faint glow within them swirls softly, catching the dim flicker of flame I summoned, like ripples across a moonlit lake. Their alien intensity sends a chill down my spine. The orbs seemed to hold a universe within, depths of endless mysteries and ancient wisdom beyond my grasp. ___ Warning: Mentions of suicide and self-harm Beautiful cover made by @scmimi.

Each with an Etching, a unique power that surely makes them special; a tie to something more, something extra, something beyond the Squareworld.

The Black Stars of Melanin by TheBlackStarWriter

A pure heart is purged of its innocence. Amber eyes, burn and seethe at the cruelties of the world. Love gives way to hate. Justice bows to vengeance. And the skies are eclipsed as the Black Stars descend from the skies... My novel, tackles and highlights the nuances of man. The ever tipping scales of right and wrong, within his heart. The snowballing effect of oppression, that gives birth to 'monsters' demonised for repaying the blood debt they owe their aggressors. As well as religion and other interesting fantasy aspects. Even if my writing touches just one soul, I'll be satisfied. Take care everyone 🖤

Avarice Blacksteel Book 2 by Xonereth

Most of us long to "Be" but when the path gets too costly, or steep, we take solace in what we "Have." Remove the trappings of what we own and then what is the sum of us? They were the survivors, abandoned by the allies who swore to protect, in the ultimate gesture of greed and betrayal. Their world plunged into annihilation and chaos. With the passage of years in this blighted landscape order was established anew. Those who had been anonymous before the war found their will to rule, those who had experienced the comforts and ease of western life, thrust into darkness and despair. This brutal conflict had awoken those long sleeping, those who had ceased to care, those of immense power, the ones entrusted with the safe keeping of the often volatile mankind. Although their parallel world too was at risk, lethargy and arrogance ruled them. Against the backdrop of this savage landscape the saga of three such tribes of survivors unfold, and the unwitting chosen among them. One tribe sought to prosper via savagery, one by organized military might, and the other who ruled with no more than fairness and love. Three tribes thrown together, competing for the limited resources to survive, in a world teetering on the brink of total decimation. Driven by human avarice.

"I only have one request if you're going to keep me in suspense all day long." "What's that?" The movement of her lips drew his eyes down. "Let me kiss you again?" That voice, breathy and low, set Taly's heart racing. His lips twitched at the corners-he could hear it. Now that he could use his magic, he knew exactly the kind of effect he was having on her.

Gamleon's Tail ~ Welcome to the worlds of : Within ~ by Cicada3300

I wrote this for EVERYONE. An introduction to my universe.Best for slow , attentive , close reading. Stick with it. When you get to the action parts (which doesn't take long ) you should be invested enough to want to unravel the mystery and enjoy its intrigue.. The flood is raging. A terrifying, heartless mountain of water, swallowing the world in inevitable finality. The tunnel networks? Of course, that won't save them. The forests? Like leaves in a breeze. The lookout towers and trade hubs? Gone. Washed clean. What does it take to take everything? Every home, every name, every last trace of what once was. And who would do such a thing? And how? No one has ever seen anything that would make them believe in magic. Gamleon is the first to see and to survive. His mind near collapse under the strain, his heart broken. He runs. What would you do? What could anyone do? A world of mythological beasts and medieval men, where Gorgon hordes slither beneath the earth, clawing for metal, for power, for anything. But they come for your children. Opulent kings wage wars over things no one can even recall, blind to the coming obliteration. There is an isolated, forgotten place. A cavern, magnificent and vast, older than civilization. A place where the weird and the unwanted might ride out the cataclysm. In this special place, something incredible, cut off from the outside, lurks. Something... you won't be ready for or ever expect. Our weary, world-worn adventurer is a paradox: terrifying perhaps, yet tender, grotesque but with a quiet dignity bordering on noble, intimidating and innately intelligent. With no choice but to navigate the unexpected Gorgon tunnels, his inner thoughts help us all learn how to persist and triumph in the face of impossible odds. Join him and be swept away as he reconciles never-before-seen innovations and insurmountable challenges. Dignity and hope. Self-respect and courage.

My Boyfriend Is The Satan. Literally. by urmissthalia

You ever wake up in Hell and realize you've somehow become Satan's emotional support human? No? Just me? Cool. So, long story short-some unhinged demon king dragged me into his grand gothic nightmare castle and decided I'm his. Apparently, we're in some epic, fate-written love story. Except I was not given a script, and I'm pretty sure I was supposed to be the main character in a normal life, not whatever this is. The bad news? He's completely obsessed and won't let me leave. The worse news? He's ridiculously hot, which feels unfair. The actual worst news? ...I might be starting to like the chaos.

Warlords by Safa-935

In a fractured land teetering on the edge of chaos, three unlikely fates are destined to intertwine. An elven warrior, driven by duty and wielding a spear with deadly precision. An orc leader, haunted by the death of his brother and a legacy of bloodshed. A betrayed prince, stripped of his crown and forced to flee, seeking vengeance and redemption. Their journeys converge as tensions rise across the land, and the threat of war looms on the horizon. Ancient rivalries resurface, and the balance of power grows ever more fragile. Each carries their own burdens, their own vendettas, but in a world where trust is scarce and enemies lurk in every shadow, alliances are forged in blood and fire. This is a tale of betrayal, vengeance, and redemption-a fantasy epic where survival demands sacrifice, and power comes at a cost.

ETERNA by llegran

In a world where strength is measured by the cycle of growth, each stage of an adventurer's journey is a reflection of nature's unyielding force. The first step begins with the smallest of starts, where raw potential is tempered by the hope of something more. You will face the wilderness, your first true test, where survival and courage are your only companions. With each challenge you overcome, you will begin to bloom-growing in skill and reputation-but beware, the world is not kind to those who flourish too quickly. Thorned paths await, where deadly truths are revealed, and the foes you face will test both body and soul. To rise above this, you must reach the heights of those who stand as beacons in a world of chaos, guiding others while facing stakes higher than life and death. Only then will you stand at the edge of something greater-where your strength can shift the tides of nations, and the world will know your name. But beware, for those who seek to go beyond the known limits, who climb too high, may find the path ahead is not one of power, but of ruin. Every step in this journey is a trial, a test of endurance, and a quest to understand the balance between growth and the inevitable price it demands.
