In a world contorted with violence and speckled with temporary peace, language records events, relationships, and all other contexts of power in the form of memories. For ages, civilizations used storytelling to pass down their experiences and sage warnings until a generation arose so enamored with the future that they neglected their past. To prevent the past from fading into forgetfulness, a minority of collectors of stories and pursuers of knowledge birthed safe havens for memories by traveling the world and recording experiences in a wide variety of forms from literature and visual art to auditory works. Their efforts blossomed libraries fostering generations of tales and tomes alike, protecting them from both age and providing a lens of guidance for the future. People from all backgrounds traveled to these libraries in search of inspiration, answers to lifelong questions, advice, or simply to experience something new.

It did not take long, however, for story collectors and pursuers of knowledge to recognize that amongst those who still valued history, not everyone appreciated language and its power in an innocent manner. They reluctantly agreed to suppress their love for learning and resolved to safeguard the knowledge they compiled in secret. A great mourning followed in which writers, artists, musicians, and all other storytellers reluctantly obliged to shield the knowledge they collected as well as their talents from the public. The only libraries the public could find had mundane books with nothing of particular weight or interest. As time passed the grand libraries that boasted riches in knowledge faded from remembrance like the stories they held. Time and forgetfulness reduced them to rumors of "whispering libraries" whose secrets could color the world, topple kingdoms, and even erase one's existence, and the gatekeepers of such knowledge were said to be capable of reading one's very soul.All Rights Reserved

tales of perdolia by RoxasWings

In the vast expanse of the cosmos, there existed a planet called Haven, home to the legendary Knights of Haven. These brave warriors were tasked with defending their world and all the galaxies from malevolent rulers who sought to conquer and destroy. One fateful day, a powerful entity known as Malrex, the dark lord of shadows, emerged from the depths of the universe. With his army of demons and dragons, he laid waste to entire planets and sought to plunge the galaxy into darkness. The leader of the Knights, Sir Galadrim, a mighty warrior with a heart of gold, knew that they were facing a threat unlike any they had ever encountered before. He gathered his comrades to discuss a plan to defeat Malrex and save their world from certain destruction. As they ventured into the unknown realms of space, they encountered strange and mysterious beings, some friendly and others hostile. Along the way, they discovered ancient artifacts and powerful relics that would aid them in their quest. But as the battles raged on and the stakes grew higher, Sir Galadrim began to doubt if they could truly defeat Malrex and his dark forces. He knew that sacrifices would have to be made and that the fate of the galaxy rested on their shoulders. In the final showdown with Malrex, the Knights fought with all their might, unleashing their inner powers and strength. With the help of unexpected allies and a stroke of luck, they managed to defeat the dark lord once and for all. As peace returned to the galaxy, Sir Galadrim realized that their victory had come at a great cost. Many lives were lost, and the scars of battle would never truly heal. But he knew that as long as there were heroes like the Knights of Haven, the galaxy would always have hope in the face of darkness. And so, the tales of pareidolia were passed down through the generations, a reminder of the courage and sacrifice of those who stood against evil and fought for the light.

Darling In The Stranxx || 016 x 002 || by ShitsAndOrGiggles

|| You probably think it was a typo in the title, but I meant to put that there for a reason || Read to find out ;) ____________________________________________________ A normal planet with a modern society, that is until 50,000 years ago, a strange meteorite crashed upon Earth and leaked its metallic liquid. The man who discovered it decided to make the metallic liquid into arrows. He then buried them underneath his homeland and in the year 2000, it was eventually discovered and monstrous beings called "Klaxosaurs" begin appearing. The arrows were a sign of hope as when exposed to the air, it chose which people to grant powers from. A visual manifestation of life energy to the user. Ordinary people cannot see it, but people who were granted with these powers can see it. It could not be harm by ordinary things, only other special people can hurt it. This was known as a Stranxx, and people who were granted these powers used it to kill the infestation of Klaxosaur. Some used it for good, some used it for bad but they didn't know that there would be a school just to train your Stranxx and fight Klaxosaurs. Thus we focus on our main protagonist, Hiro. He is Stranxxless but he has a dream, and that dream is to be known as the #1 Hero that destroys Klaxosaurs in one swoop. So he thinks that the program will help him fight the Klaxosaurs. Who knows what will happen.
