**Description:**

In the quiet village of Vern, young Kael's life is shrouded in darkness. Under the oppressive rule of his alcoholic father, he finds solace only in the bond with his siblings and the whispered legends of chi warriors. When his mother is brutally taken from him, Kael's world shatters, pushing him into a desperate act of vengeance that sets him on a path of survival and power.

Fleeing with his siblings, Kael's journey leads them to an orphanage, and eventually, a military academy where his talent for chi manipulation becomes his only hope. But in a world driven by envy and betrayal, Kael's rapid rise through the ranks threatens those in power. His siblings become pawns in a deadly game, and their cruel fate transforms Kael into a cold, calculating warrior bent on revenge.

As he hunts down those who wronged him, Kael's quest for vengeance is cut short by his own death, only to find himself reborn in a distant world. Each rebirth is a struggle for survival, until he awakens anew, as Arthur, in a land ripe with both danger and opportunity.

Follow Kael, now Arthur, as he navigates through realms of pain and power, where shadows whisper of betrayal and ascension. Will he conquer the darkness within and rise to claim his destiny, or will he be consumed by the very shadows he seeks to master?

Prepare for a gripping tale of resilience, revenge, and rebirth in **Dark Ascension**. A journey through pain and power that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

The Troubled Soul (Volume 3: Final Volume) by DemonMan1029
33 parts Complete Mature
Once upon a time, there was a young boy who experienced constant pain. The only person who truly stayed by his side was Kallie, his sister. She was his everything. His life, his family, his best friend...his world. Then humanity had to take her away and wreck his perfect, peaceful life. As if it was not enough humans were the source of all his pain and suffering he experienced throughout his life, and the reason for all his scars and symbols, they took away the only person he cared about. Well, enough was enough. He tried leaving humanity alone. He tried living a peaceful life away from all the fighting. It was all he wanted; to live a peaceful life with his sister, but humanity would not allow him that. So, if battling was the only thing humans throughout history understood, then he would bring them a war. So now, he has a new goal. Peace treaties are made between humans but they never last. War, however, forces the loser to obey no matter what for however long the winner decides. If humanity-the entire world-only submitted to the strongest then he would dominate them all. Only he would be the strongest, allowing no other person to even come close to his power. He would burn the world down to its very foundation, eradicating everyone who stands in his way, and rebuild it anew. The new world would be transformed into what he could never have. A fair and just world, devoid of all sins, where everyone can live a peaceful life without the constant worry of what could hurt them next. New laws will be placed while the old ones are removed. All evil will be purged from the world. Any who stand in his way will be turned to ash to help build his world. If the world wanted him to be evil so badly...then he would be a malicious tyrant that rules not with an iron fist, but a diamond one. Of course, there will be many who will fight back. However, there is only one person who even has a chance at winning...and she only cares about her little sunshine.

Book Two, part two of the "Home" series. Alice Carlea Williams, our brave young state, has lost her memory again! To make matters worse, she's been shipped off to another dimension and wakes up in a hospital, where she's told she has amnesia. As if that wasn't bad enough, her counterpart is taking her place in her dimension, and Alice is slated to be wed to... Prussia? Holy god, what is going on. And Kadi... Poor Kadi. She's got quite a few magnificent skeletons in her closet. They're about to be thrown out into the open for everyone to see. Recurring sentences, the all-too-likely future, strange souls, and ancient history are about to become more connected than they've ever been. Are you strong-willed enough to make the journey? Because if you aren't, you just might not make it out alive... "You're needed elsewhere." "Yin and yang. Two halves of a whole. Both are connected. Both are balanced, until now, aru." Rated PG-13 for magic, swearing, one or two suggestive themes, bloodshed, multiple intense scenes, harsh reality, and fantasy. Your feels very well may not end up totally intact, fair warning. But you'll enjoy it all, every second. Read at your own risk, but please don't give up on this story. Like, a gazillion Hetalia AUs in this. And other things, many other things. A character death will be involved, and it's NOT Alice, believe it or not. I do not own Hetalia nor anything else I use or reference. What I own is meager: the plot, the OCs, and the work it takes to create this story. Thank you for reading this far, and I hope you like what you read!

Exile: The Book of Ever by JamesCormier
30 parts Complete
Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.
