RISE OF THE LOST STARS

Untold millennia ago, countless civilizations rose, clashed, and eventually united, giving birth to the Nirvana Age-a golden era of peace, knowledge, and prosperity unmatched in history. But this harmony was shattered when the Hollow, a realm of eldritch horrors beyond reality, invaded. The resulting interdimensional war consumed entire star systems, collapsing the great order and plunging the galaxy into a dark age. Civilizations crumbled, technology regressed, and scattered survivors endured without the wisdom of the past.

After centuries of ruin, the Dawn Age began-a slow recovery where civilizations once more reached for the stars, though always under the looming threat of Hollow incursions. On the perilous Frontier, warriors, explorers, and opportunists carved out fragile footholds while fending off alien nightmares and rival factions.

Amid this fragile rebirth persisted a legend: the Golden Vault, a relic of the Nirvana Age said to contain unimaginable treasures, lost technologies, and the power to reshape destiny itself. Whoever claims it could determine the galaxy's future-salvation or ruin.

Now, a band of misfits-mercenaries, exiles, and dreamers touched by strange powers-are drawn together by fate. Bound by necessity rather than trust, they brave shattered worlds, warring warlords, and the creeping corruption of the Hollow in pursuit of the Vault. For them, survival is uncertain, but in a broken galaxy, one rule endures:

Get rich or die trying.

A Legend Reborn. by Dragonterd11

The Golden Age- When the Traveler arrived, a time of peace, prosperity, and infinite possibility sprouted from Earth. Mankind had launched hundreds- if not, thousands- of journeys across the system, connecting Mars, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, even Mercury into an increasingly large web of life and technology. Fast forward to the end of the Golden Age- The Collapse and the Dark Age- alien races surge forth from outside the system- the Eliksni, the Hive, The Cabal, The Vex- all coming for the Traveler. He fought them all, sending his Light, his Power out, crushing the opposition. Then, He was crippled, retreating to a small town. Fast forward to the beginning of our age- The City Age- With His dying breath, The Traveler created the Ghost- small machines that can revive those capable of wielding the Light- His Power- and fight the Darkness. The Hunters scout out terrain, reclaim Dead Zones, and are the eyes and ears of the City- the Warlocks research the secrets of the fundamental ideas of the Darkness, predict future events, and enthrall themselves in the workings of the Light to understand it and to find new ways to work it into the Guardians arsenal- and finally, the Titans, Defenders of the Last City, and the burning lights of hope in the shadows. Honor-driven. Leaders. Warriors. The Protectors of Humanity. Deeply intertwined in the history of the Last City. What happens when one is reborn and becomes one of the few able to wield the flame of hope as his own, to burn off the shackles of darkness that have been crushing humanity's will and hope to dust, What happens when he experiences so much tragedy, so much pain, that he delves into the shadows? What happens, when he finally snaps? And what happens to his loved ones when they are forced to put him down? And what will his Legend become, if he himself threatens the safety of the Last City. --------------- Thanks go out to the wonderful girl that most would know as @ShadowPine for the Cover art. Thanks Kobi!!!!

First to Rise (Excerpt) by Bioshockgrl

The aliens came here for one thing, and one thing only.... Females. ( This story is only available through inkitt or galatea!!!) (some read events may apply) (check update chapter for more details!) Humans believed they were the only intelligent life to exist... that it was impossible for another species to evolve in a way where they could prevail in something as great as space travel. humans believed they were supposed to be the most technologically advanced species and the alpha predators... They were wrong. The Xandisians evolved in ways humans never could have imagined, they are natural-born killers with phenomenal strength and agility. Their kind never went through the same devolution as humans, they never lost their natural instincts to hunt, kill, or breed. With their limitless potential and monstrous strength, they faced few threats and could survive almost any threat that befall their species, almost. After an incurable sickness washes over the planet of xanadis, the majority of the female, young and elderly, and vulnerable population is all but wiped out, leaving a small portion of the male population to face the threat of extinction. With no choice but to look to the stars for a means to save their kind from complete annihilation, the xandisians set out to find a race compatible with their own. after many years and countless failed expeditions, they finally find a species that matches their base DNA on a planet called Earth. The only issue now is how humans will react. (Book 2 LTF series) (CAN be read as a stand alone, but not recommended for nostalgia reasons~) (ps this is UNEDITED, grammar and spelling mistakes will ensue!) (NOTE: THIS IS ITS OWN STORY NOT A CONTINUATION. SAME CHARACTERS BUT DIFFERENT PLOT.)(Last to fall au/spin-off)
