The sun gracefully sank beneath the horizon, casting long shadows upon Arcanum, a city where arcane energies flowed like a hidden heartbeat. Centurios, a once-mighty figure, now bore the weight of time's passage. His Rank 9 Getovhi emblem, once vibrant, had faded. Retirement had been his hope, away from the council's intrigues and power plays.
In his prime, Centurios had been a hero, renowned for quelling the rogue Rank 9 Getovhi rebellion. That brutal war had scarred Arcanum, but they'd imprisoned the rogue Rank 9s in the Chamber of Cronos, a timeless prison.
News of a rogue Rank 9, Ripok, who stole the Key of Panagea, reached Centurios. Fear rippled through Arcanum. Ripok's actions threatened to unleash the Chamber's prisoners and chaos.
The council implored Centurios for help. Reluctantly, he agreed. Now, a disparate team of Getovhi stood before him. And he had to make sure they stayed alive and completed the mission.
The council's charge: retrieve the Key from Ripok and halt his cataclysmic plan. Centurios knew their path held unknown trials.
As they prepared for the quest, nostalgia gripped Centurios. Memories of heroism resurfaced. Fate beckoned him. The retired hero would become a legend once more, a destiny he could not evade.

God Quest
Centuries ago, an unknown power was released into the world. The power spread across many different worlds forever altering the course of humanity. This cataclysm triggered widespread mutations among populations of living things, endowing some with extraordinary abilities. Amidst the ensuing chaos, six individuals emerged, each possessing unparalleled strength and earning the title of "Gods." These formidable beings were assigned unique domains-strongholds where other mutants could challenge them for their divine titles. To slay a God was to ascend in their place, and the victor would be granted a domain of their own. Years past since and only 3 of the original Gods have never known defeat while the other 3 god titles kept on changing throughout the years. The world remains a fractured and perilous place, dominated by these divine figures and their fiercely contested realms. Banri, an 18-year-old mutant with a fiery determination, has decided to carve his name into history. Seeking all advantages that comes with being a a god he decided to take on the quest. With his abilities untested against such overwhelming power, Banri embarks on a dangerous journey to rise above all others. The path to godhood is treacherous, but Banri is willing to risk it all to claim his destiny. Will he become a legend-or just another forgotten challenger crushed beneath the might of the Gods?
A Court of Shadows and Heartbreak

Warrior, Forbidden: Book Three of the Comhairle Chronicles
Mairsinn had served as the commander of the Taghadairean for longer than she cared to remember, part of the sisterhood responsible for protecting the halls of the gods and training with the battle-slain who dwelled in Tallamarbh. She also decided which candidates passed the trials or died attempting to gain recognition as Comhairle warriors. She wasn't sure how many bhampairean she'd killed because they chose to step into the Proving Grounds, underprepared. She only knew that she was weary of it, and sometimes she needed to escape. Unfortunately, chasing an illicit, temporary release from her duties left her vulnerable, and at least one bhampair had a bone to pick with her. When a ghaisgeach attacks her, knocking her out and dragging her to a grim dungeon where several bhampairean are being held, Mairsinn needs to figure out what her captors want from their prisoners. What connects the captives? Will her jailers want to keep her or sell her to the highest bidder? Can she find a way to escape? And if she does, will her place as commander still wait for her? Meanwhile, Aodh, second-in-command of the Comhairle-Chlaidheamhan, had been tasked with persuading an unwilling noble to help the Council with legal matters. That wasn't work for a warrior, but leaving the task to Corvinus seemed... risky. Nonetheless, when Aodh's gift as a seer revealed that one of the Taghadairean had been abducted by someone wielding a Comhairle sword, his focus needed to shift. Making nice with a noble no longer seemed so important, not when the woman responsible for protecting the gods and assessing new ghaisgich had been abducted; stolen away from a supernatural establishment trading in angel blood, a place she should've had no reason to be. Worse, the visions of her just keep coming, making his gift even more intrusive than it had been before. But why? There was no love lost between him and the commander, yet he couldn't get her black eyes out of his mind. He needed to find her.
Loner of the Vanguard
In a shocking twist of fate, an ordinary school is transported from the familiar world into a vibrant, fantastical kingdom brimming with magic and mythical creatures. Unbeknownst to the students and staff, this realm is plagued by an age-old menace: a powerful demon king bent on conquering the land and casting it into eternal darkness. Stripped of their routines and comforts, the bewildered group soon learns of their urgent mission: to aid the kingdom as its last line of defense. With courage and resilience, they must rise to the challenge, leaving behind the ordinary lives they once knew. In this world, a mystical system has awakened within each of them, bestowing the ability to unlock and harness hidden powers that reflect their unique potential. This system offers new paths to greatness, empowering them to forge alliances, master unfamiliar skills, and confront their deepest fears as they prepare to face the demon king's unrelenting forces. However, not all the students are blessed with equal opportunities or strength. One student, an unlikely hero among them, discovers he has been assigned a lower-tier class-a position with few benefits and even fewer options. Unlike his peers who wield swords, magic, or other mighty abilities, he finds himself restricted to a limited set of skills and weaponry, with only a shield at his disposal. Despite feeling the weight of these limitations, he becomes a symbol of determination and tenacity, relying on strategy, resourcefulness, and an unyielding will to prove that strength isn't always defined by power alone.

To Rebuild a Mageocracy
Magic: amazing, powerful, extravagant, mysterious necessary for the survival of the universe,... and ridiculously difficult to learn. Without a proper teacher, you could never even reach for the lowest hem of your own true Mage's Robe; that's the common knowledge of how Arcata, the once-great Mageocracy that ruled enough of the civilized world to call themselves the Dominant Political and Military Force on the Planet Nonith, came to be. With the decline of Mages, however, as the elder mages die out without any promising students, the memory and knowledge of magic became duller and duller with every passing generation, and the Ultimate Mageocracy itself faded alongside it. Muradin, Deity of Magic, finds themself running out of options, trying desperately to grip the fraying threads of their home dimension, delaying the inevitable as long as possible as they do the work of hundreds of thousands of mages, supplying the Mana that holds the dimension together... until one bronze-haired opportunity shows herself to them, and they find themselves in the unique position to perhaps fix everything, with only a small investment of time and energy to kick off the chain reaction... with a dose of some good old fashioned, ever-dependable, elitist mercantilism to fill in the gaps. Laura 'Morgana' D'Artagnan is a certified expert on all magics, from conjuration to artificing, enchanting, and even divine magic. Well, as far as the Arcana from Dungeons and Dragons is concerned, at least. After all, she makes and sells custom spell cards, monster cards, and custom Pre-made One-Shot Modules for dungeon masters all across the world, one hand-made batch and *edEx package at a time. To see one of them suddenly *work*, though, is the start of the craziest campaign that she's *ever* seen.Complete

Hate & Heaven | 18+
"You're a devil," she whispered, her voice raw and filled with a mix of anger and desire. Dimitrio chuckled, the sound deep and resonant, reverberating through her like a bass note in a symphony of seduction. "And aren't you this devil's heaven?," he breathed against her skin, his mouth moving to her neck, his teeth scraping lightly against her flesh. She shivered, her body responding to him. "Monster," she swore at him again, the word a whisper that held no real heat. Her voice was a tremble, a soft protest that was lost in the sea of passion that surrounded them. He chuckled, his eyes gleaming with triumph. "Call me whatever you want, as long as you come screaming my name." His voice was a dark promise, the arrogance in his tone sending a fresh wave of heat through her. *************** Under moon's dark veil, Princess shivers, devil grins.
