After a nuclear altercation, the commander of an interceptor base is left to come to grips with the destruction of the world as he knew it. A band of friends leaves a ruined planet behind as their country burns, caught in the crossfire of a war that was not their own.

 A collection of short stories set on an Earth with stark differences to our own, taken without context from a science fiction project I have been working on.

Mass Effect: Imperialis  by WilliamKillian
11 parts Ongoing Mature
(AN: I plan to conquer the Milky Way galaxy.) In the aftermath of the Great Galactic War, the Sith withdrew into the uncharted depths of the unknown regions, their empire splintered and fractured by infighting. Amidst the chaos, a force-wielding noble of House Thule, Adrian Thule, rose as an unlikely savior of order. With charisma, tactical brilliance, and a vision of unity, Adrian rallied those disillusioned by Sith tyranny. Over two decades of brutal civil war, his armies crushed the Sith remnants, forging a new empire from the ashes of discord. This new empire chose secrecy, its leaders deeming the greater galaxy unworthy of their renewed strength. They withdrew into the vast void, colonizing and conquering the unknown regions of their home galaxy. Unshackled by external interference, they built a civilization both advanced and unyielding, guided by Thule's principles of discipline, power, and order. The galaxy they left behind forgot them, but they did not forget the galaxy. Two and a half millennia have passed since Adrian Thule's ascension, and the empire, its strength unmatched within its borders, has turned its gaze outward. The unknown regions are no longer a frontier-they are the empire's dominion. Driven by curiosity, ambition, and an innate sense of destiny, their explorers have begun probing the borders of other galaxies. The Milky Way is their first discovery. A galaxy teeming with life, its fractured alliances and diverse civilizations present both opportunities and threats. The empire, watching from the shadows, prepares to make its move. Will the Milky Way prove to be a theater for conquest, an ally against the unknown, or a stage for a cataclysmic clash of civilizations? The echoes of Adrian Thule's legacy resonate through time as the empire stands at the brink of a new chapter, poised to redefine the fate of two galaxies. The question is no longer whether the galaxy is ready for the empire-it is whether the empire is ready for the galaxy.

Space Command

1 part Complete

Exploring a possible future where Space has become weaponised. NB this story is not actually complete, but it is certainly as far as I am taking it. I believe it still makes enough sense to follow anyway.
