Empire. At the end only Empire remains. No matter how many times you rebel Empire remains. No matter how many times you fight for your democratic Empire remains. Now bend for your emperorr. Welcome readers to my fantasy world. I have brought you something beyond the constraints of my imagination, and I wonder if many are ready for it; however, a good story must be told, and I am fortunate to be the one to tell it. Imagine a world where the vile nature of mankind creeps its ugly head as humanity faces its first and last major catastrophe. The world plunged into everlasting darkness, entrenched in chaos and disorder, where hope is a distant flitting memory. The story I propose to my fellow readers follows Anthony Verdun, who was only a boy when all he knew was taken from him in an instant. Like many others, on that day, those who survived lost a part of themselves, forever scarred by the family, friends, and loved ones they lost. Their lives changed forever; how could it not? I welcome you to join the world I have created, indulge in this hypothetical, and dive into this what-if. What that is, well, you would have to read to find out.

Rebirth of The Monyec by vinny_duh

From the beginning of time, light and dark played games with one another which led to wars between nations and in the hearts of those around. Mana, the string that connects all living and dead to one another saw this and tried to put an end to it for the two only drove the galaxies out of balance and caused chaos. The two were pulled in by the Mana and kept away, yet Mana decided it was unfair to keep both from the rest of the world. Dividing up the two Mana put some into each thing that lived, hoping that it might help take on the burden of what had become of the two. Every living thing had parts of light and dark, but some had more than others. Yet while the two were divided up Mana gave some of itself to those around, the people of the world discovered that they too could influence the flow of the world and used it for their survival. Nations started being engulfed by darkness and its hunger for more taking out light and its pure side. Mana had seen the unbalanced scale and shifted it by adding a new, reborn sibling to the two. A Monyec, one who could harness as much mana as they pleased to put balance back to the galaxy, but just like every living being it has an end to come to. Every five hundred years the Monyec was reborn to put the two in check and give hope to the nations they were not forgotten. Now a new Monyec is born, on the sandy planet of Mearog lies a young Monyec that has much to learn and the long journey ahead.

Cruel Love by IslaOfSkye

Plunging his sword into the attacker's chest, the Centurion let the man fall and bleed out on the ground. Aelynn shrieked, causing Marcus to direct his full attention to her. The girl was cowering in the corner of the room. She hid her face in her hands, and he heard her muffled sobs. Slowly, Marcus sheathed his gladius approaching her shivering figure. *************************************************************** An enemies-to-lovers story set in ancient times when the Roman Empire was at the peak of its power and extending its control over Britain. And in the middle of it, a kind Celtic girl Aelynn and a Roman Centurion Marcus notorious for his brutality and cold-heartedness. Two worlds that could not be more different from each other collide. What would become of them? This is a fictional story based on some historical facts. I'll also appreciate your comments, thoughts and pointing out mistakes. The pictures don't belong to me.

The Centurion's Woman by FliederAmanda

Alexandria "Alex" Moldovan fell asleep at a work retreat and woke up in the same place, just not in the right time. The situation improves when she's inadvertently rescued by a Roman Centurion, and as long as she can keep her wits - and his affections - she might just survive this. But trading one slave class for another doesn't help with the trouble that always seems to find her... Ixillius Traversi had been leading his century on a routine razing, but the slave he found imprisoned, injured and starved in the village is anything but typical. That she was alive seemed barely possible, and then she'd saved his life... and she wasn't afraid of him. He claimed the woman who called herself Alex as his slave, be it a curse or a blessing, but he still needs to know one thing: who is she? The Centurion's Woman is set in Germania Inferior circa 5 AD, and Maiden discovers that a two thousand year culture shock may be the easiest problem to overcome, but it won't be the last... Trigger Warnings: beatings / abuse (people and animals), starvation, battle, blood, sex Please note: This story's historical elements are based on the research I did as a writer; I'm not a historian.
