Gods live an eternity, much too long, and thus are driven to boredom. Bored gods meddle. When they treat lives like toys, only suffering follows. Men prop idols to represent them on ornate pedestals to use their names for their selfish desires. After experiencing all the world has to offer, supernatural beings become restless. They play devious tricks for their perverse entertainment. The boundaries of science can only be pushed so far before we find ourselves on the edge of a bottomless cliff. There is knowledge not suited for the human mind, the proverbial apple, the unmaking for those with reckless curiosity. What does isolation do to the mind? Is there truly selfless self-sacrifice? What would God think upon examining His creation? Who knows... let us try to find out together.All Rights Reserved

First Light of a New Age by TIMEMASTER101

In a distant realm where magic thrives, ferocious beasts shake mountains and rivers with their mighty roars, and individuals wield superhuman strength capable of reshaping their surroundings. It is a magical world where the strong rules. But rampant corruption and chaos exist, where slavery, rape, murder, and discrimination against the weak were all but common. The magically superior people trample over the lesser unfortunate folks, using them as stepping stones and disposable assets. All hope for these downtrodden souls seems lost, but the wheels of fate have other plans for them. In a faraway ocean, one that is filled with demons and sea monsters, a great technological civilization suddenly appeared, one that came from a world that is only filled with chaos and destruction. This civilization became the heaven for people seeking a stable and peaceful life. The Earth rose and seas parted ways, and the environment had totally changed for its adaptability. Unfortunately, the inhabitants of this great technological civilization are all but manaless, arriving in a world where they are seen as inferior and as slaves. How will they react of finding themselves in a world where people can split mountains or bend the fabric of space, and where beings exist that even conventional weapons cannot defeat? How will they survive against deadly monsters, magical beasts, and superhumans that could threaten entire nations? And how will the other powers that exist in this world react to a powerful, advanced nation filled with a race they deem inferior? This is the story of one of the most powerful empires on Earth, and how it broke the balance of power and rose to the top.

Hurricane by icanseelights

"I open my eyes and exhale, searching the room to determine what is amiss. Nothing. Nothing but the dust and the air. And yet, something lingers, something unsettling and alarming and indistinct all at the same time." - Humans are savage, perhaps the most savage creature of all. We substituted claws for weapons. Our bodies were cold so we killed for the fur of animals better than we. We created laws, religions, false ideologies - and we believe ourselves superior while we war with each other over land we do not own and things we cannot control. For all intents and purposes, we should have died out before we even began - but we became the best. Top of the food chain. And then there was the prophecy. And the food chain became irrelevant. And humanity became irrelevant. Because with the prophecy came the power to destroy the human race. Or the power to change it.

Tyrant by Marcus_Rayleigh

Hope. The most fundamental factor of any religion, or belief. The sole reason that we believe in any religion is because we hope to live, and be happy when we die, because we are merely ants compared to Gods. But, are Gods really all that powerful? This world is in another catastrophe, war once again drives this world's wheels. Hoping to bring back past glories, to acquire more resources. To become God. As man, fights man once again in the playground of Earth, in another, a human, fights Gods... "Uriel Angelica was found dead on August 21st 2098 at 4:50 PM. The 4th year student was shot in the chest, which hit his heart causing him to die from the injury, the witness Laureen Thao claimed that Uriel protected her from the shot, she also claims that the man responsible suddenly disappeared. CCTV cameras had seen the suspect enact the crime, but his whereabouts are still unknown." In both worlds, there is always a deciding factor. To embrace the demons that hide, to become one of them in order to achieve victory, or continue to flame the fires of righteousness in an unending darkness, and hope for victory. Some call it Good, and Evil. That they are always opposite to one another. The righteousness knight, will always defeat the evil in the end, but in turn will they become evil also...?

Glass Heart Syndrome by skystar1011

[Content Warning: Dark themes, violence, psychological manipulation] ❝Being kind in a cruel world is like bringing a flower to a knife fight.❞ Eren Valen died on Earth believing in the good in people. Too bad his second chance at life didn't come with a warning label. Reborn into Ezura, a realm where magic flows like water and power corrupts like poison, Eren's pure heart makes him the perfect target. As an apprentice mage with stars in his eyes and trust in his soul, he dreams of becoming the hero in a world that has no use for them. But Ezura doesn't reward the pure-it devours them. When his faith in humanity is shattered by a betrayal that leaves him bleeding out in a ditch, something inside him breaks. Or maybe, something awakens. Gone is the boy who wanted to save everyone. In his place rises someone who understands the truth: if the world wants a villain, he'll give them a masterpiece. Armed with magic, fueled by spite, and backed by a brilliant mind he'd forgotten he had, Eren begins his metamorphosis. Those who took advantage of his kindness? They're about to learn why you shouldn't leave your victims breathing. But every time he stares into the abyss of his own making, echoes of his former self whisper from the depths. And in quiet moments, when the mask slips, one question burns: Is he becoming stronger, or is he just better at breaking? ✧ A tale of twisted redemption ✧ Morally grey protagonist ✧ Psychological warfare ✧ Complex magic system ✧ Strategic manipulation ✧ Found family (but toxic) [Updates every Monday, Wednesday and Friday] #MagicFantasy #DarkFantasy #Reincarnation #Revenge #MagicAcademy #PsychologicalThriller #Antihero Start the journey. Just remember-not all transformations are beautiful, but they're all permanent. ❝You either die a hero, or live long enough to perfect the art of villainy.❞
