Waria: The Great Insanity. by AstrosOC123
9 parts Ongoing Mature
"With great power, comes great Insanity." Waria, a planet somewhere in the Galius galaxy, bled. The Bloodiest War wasn't just fought with weapons, but with broken hearts and shattered dreams. Fate offered no escape, only impossible choices. Love bloomed in the trenches, drama unfolded in the war rooms, and every character faced a reckoning. In a conflict where even the victors lose, can love or betrayal truly alter a destiny forged in fire? Will they change themselves, or will they change Waria? Or will war change them, forever? The dead, they say, saw the end. But what end is there when the only choice is to become a monster or be devoured by one? It was all a waste of army dreamers. War will always change something in this world. Only the dead have seen the end of the war. "This was written with emotion, mental issues, and my insanity. I gathered every single hurtful and damned feeling, or a joyful feeling, and placed it all on this Novel. That's how I created it, from scars, tears, toil, and sweat." -The Author. This is Just a A.U (Alternate Universe) Don't be offended (Because some countries here are based on real life ones), and this is just a Story, Written by AstrosOC. Trigger Warning ⚠️: If you're below 13 or more, don't be traumatized because some parts in this novel are depressing, have sensitive content, and language too. Reader discretion is advised. The month is a year. e.g. 2048=September so, September 2048, October 2049, and so on. The war started on September 12, 2048, and ended in December 25, 2100.
Ismarus by TarekMasud5
11 parts Complete Mature
"Ismarus" is a historical fiction named after the protagonist, and the context of the novel is the ancient Thrace, around 300 BC. From the very beginning, the clash between the protagonist and the antagonist has been portrayed with a clear understanding of the mechanics behind this clash of interest. Tegrios is a despotic king who has a son named Ismarus and a nephew named Eumoplus. Tegrios loves both of them, however, because of his poor judgment, he ends up favoring his beloved nephew against his own son. Though Tegrios was short sighted, the same cannot be attributed to his queen Calysto. In this novel, Calysto has been portrayed as the voice of reason and benevolence. In the protagonist's life, his father's despotic and uncaring attitude was balanced by his mother's deep wisdom and motherly tenderness. The despotic nature of Tegrios made him view his son's humanity as insolence, eventually disowning him, and depriving him of his birthright. Eumoplus saw this as an opportunity to fulfill his secret ambition. He conspired, and successfully had Tegrios assassinated. The evidence contrived by Eumoplus suggested that Ismarus was the perpetrator of the heinous crime. Hence, Ismarus had not only been deprived of the throne, after the assassination of his father, he found himself running from the law of the land as well. When Ismarus was banished, Calysto abandoned her husband and chose self exile with his unfortunate son. They found shelter in Dacia, the neighboring kingdom. This small kingdom was ruled by a benevolent ruler named Resus. Eventually, Scorilo, the king of Bastarnae, was also added to the list of Ismarus' allies. The events culminated in a classic military showdown between Ismarus, aided by his allies, and Eumoplus who was being aided by his huge army. During the battles that followed, Ismarus was given the news of his son's birth. This led to the climax of the story

Mundus: A Theological Account: A Dįvonësë Chronicle

8 parts Complete

A short supplement to the overarching narrative of the Drågoon Mémoirs and a supportive follow-up to my first book, Reflections on the Dįvonësë War: The Dįvįnë Will Bear Witness to Fate. It's a history of the Goddess Åmbrosįå's known existence, the birth of the Great Expanse, the creation of the White Tree and the seeding of Mundus. It serves as a guide to the birth of the Ångëls, the fall of Lumå'įl, the awakening of the Drågons and the events that led to both the devastating Ten and Five Year War and the current state of the world.
