In a realm where humans and devils wage a ceaseless war amongst themselves, a solitary figure emerges from the shadows, bearing the weight of a tragic past. The world knows him as The Lone Ascendant, a being with unparalleled power and a heart burdened by solitude. His journey unfolds in the tapestry of a fantastical landscape, where ancient grudges and dark secrets intertwine. As he navigates through treacherous alliances and battles, the true extent of his strength is revealed, and the echoes of his haunting history resound through the fractures of the realm. The Loneliness, the Overpowering might, and the Sadness that define him shape the destiny of this enigmatic hero, as he grapples with both the demons within and the chaos that surrounds him. Will he find solace amidst the chaos, or will the shadows of his past consume the very essence of his being?

GRAYWORLD - The Lost Grayling (Book 1) by Coisa_fay
19 parts Complete
Gray isn't a color. It's a thief. It steals memories, leaches vibrancy, and muffles screams in the chilling reality known as GrayWorld. For fifteen-year-old Kai, grieving his mother, arrival isn't a choice - it's an abduction into a place where time corrodes the self. Here, newcomers, Graylings, find their identities fading like breath on a cold mirror, their bodies subject to arbitrary, horrifying transformations: shrink into nothingness or expand until you burst. Forget the sun. Forget warmth. Forget who you are. The metallic taste of the lavish food only accelerates the Fade. Asking questions invites punishment. Survival means clinging to fragile anchors - a stopped pocket watch, a fraying photograph - while navigating a landscape of endless gray corridors, lurking Drifters who hunger for warmth, and warring Copies split into hunted Blacks and ruling Whites. When Kai witnesses the chilling "mercy" of the Butcher, a White copy who harvests souls, he's pulled into the shadows by Silas, a haunted Black copy bearing the weight of sacrifice. Finding refuge in a derelict farm hiding an impossible secret - a subterranean garden pulsing with ghostly light - Kai must ally with the cynical, scarred survivor Jax to unravel the secrets of GrayWorld's brutal Karma system and the nature of the unseen Arbiter who rules from his Tower of Bone. But in a world designed to erase you, can Kai hold onto his memories, his identity, his very soul? Can he trust his allies when survival demands impossible choices? And what happens when the deepest corruption isn't just in the ruling powers, but potentially within the very fabric of reality... and himself? Dive into the first volume of an epic dark fantasy series that blends psychological horror with intricate world-building. "GRAYWORLD" is a visceral, mind-altering journey into a reality where memory is currency, identity is fragile, and survival demands a confrontation with the shadows within and without.

Some Legends Fade. Others refuse to die. For two hundred years Kaius has cheated death, defied fate, and outlasted time itself. He is the sword behind countless victories, has bled for emperors, slain monsters and demi-gods alike and altered the course of history but such triumphs always come at a cost. His friends. His family. His flesh. Even his very soul. Now, Skyrim teeters on the brink and threatens to drag the rest of the world down with it. Civil war stains the land red, vampires prowl the night and for the first time in 4,000 years, dragons are returning as harbingers of the greatest of their kind; Alduin, the World-Eater. Yet, while all eyes turn skyward a darker horror stirs beneath their feet, one that makes dragonfire merciful in comparison. Fate demands Kaius rise once more to challenge it, but this time even a legend won't survive alone. What to expect: -A connected series of short stories, novellas, novelettes and novels of approx 275,000 words -A gritty, character driven fantasy grounded in realism, loss and hard-won victories. -Slow burn character growth and arcs between interesting and varied main characters. -Violent, but grounded combat and action. -Dark secrets and revelations -personal stakes against world ending threats: Apocalyptic wars, vampiric plots, dragons and WORSE -Subtle romance and connection, combined with gritty humour that's earned, not forced. What not to expect: -A chosen one with everything handed to him (or them?) -Shiny magic systems, -Plot armour or plot immunity. -Anything that wouldn't fit in the same world as the likes of 'The Witcher', 'Game of Thrones', or 'Lord of the Rings' ***New chapters every Monday, Wednesday & Friday***

The Last Ember

15 parts Complete

In a world scorched by war and shadow, Kaelin, a young woman from a forgotten village, becomes the reluctant bearer of a powerful ember - a mystical flame that holds the key to both destruction and renewal. After witnessing her home consumed by the monstrous Hunger, Kaelin embarks on a perilous journey to master the ember's power and rally scattered survivors against the creeping darkness. Guided by allies Bren and the enigmatic sage Veyrix, Kaelin confronts internal and external battles alike: the ember's fire threatens to consume her from within even as enemies gather beyond the horizon. Among these foes is Malrik, once her closest friend and fellow flamebearer, now corrupted and driven to claim the ember's power for himself. As the world teeters on the brink of annihilation, Kaelin must choose between wielding the ember as a weapon of vengeance or a beacon of hope. In a climactic battle marked by fire and shadow, she confronts Malrik-not just to defeat him, but to offer redemption. Together, they spark a fragile renewal that promises a future beyond ruin. The Last Ember is a story of sacrifice, friendship, and the eternal struggle between light and darkness - a journey from ashes to dawn, where the greatest power lies not in destruction, but in the courage to rebuild.
