"Devote your kin in our name, for those who do so, will have their seats above all others in the higher planes."

"Fear not the wrath of gods but the man with the power of one, for the gods are just."

Centuries have passed since the gods have departed. Rafik a young scholar finds himself on the run from numerous assassins and ungodly beings sent out by the Insurrection, in order to protect the son of his precious friend and his wonderful gift from falling into the wrong hands.

Avarice Blacksteel Book 2 by Xonereth

Most of us long to "Be" but when the path gets too costly, or steep, we take solace in what we "Have." Remove the trappings of what we own and then what is the sum of us? They were the survivors, abandoned by the allies who swore to protect, in the ultimate gesture of greed and betrayal. Their world plunged into annihilation and chaos. With the passage of years in this blighted landscape order was established anew. Those who had been anonymous before the war found their will to rule, those who had experienced the comforts and ease of western life, thrust into darkness and despair. This brutal conflict had awoken those long sleeping, those who had ceased to care, those of immense power, the ones entrusted with the safe keeping of the often volatile mankind. Although their parallel world too was at risk, lethargy and arrogance ruled them. Against the backdrop of this savage landscape the saga of three such tribes of survivors unfold, and the unwitting chosen among them. One tribe sought to prosper via savagery, one by organized military might, and the other who ruled with no more than fairness and love. Three tribes thrown together, competing for the limited resources to survive, in a world teetering on the brink of total decimation. Driven by human avarice.

ASORA: From The Blood Of The Shadows by rinaXhazurina

FORMER TITLE: Élan: A Youngblood World "Beware that you become not the very monster you ought to slay." In a world where magic holds the essence to life, there is still no telling where fate determines your place will be. When the Cardinal Empire of Nyrhaea and its time-forsaken creatures declare war on the human world, an immortal dark entity in the guise of a human, a grieving swordsman, an electric-manipulating technocrat, an unhinged fire-breathing boy, and a magic-less girl whose very existence defies the Laws of Mahika, venture to stop the prophecied, apocalyptic world war. All the while dealing with the complications of entering adulthood. With the grotesque inside him growing hungrier by the day, threatening him of the looming hour to fulfill destiny's bidding to be the key to the end of the world--where death is an impossible remedy to attain--the entity resorts to a mysterious girl who could only be his last hope to achieve freedom from the shackles of fate. An antidote given not without an undefined price. But how long can he endure to bury the roots of the calling past? And what are they willing to risk to liberate a cruel world beyond saving that hangs in the state of trust and sanity? *~* Contains Mature Contents: gore, violence, and subtle depictions of abuse, substance use, and suicide.

Syrilth; A Dei Realm Tale by myohmyers_18

The guardians banished the gods from the Dei Realm centuries ago, prosperity and peace growing in the absence of their chaos. As the years passed, the memories of these violent times have faded into whispered stories of lore. Except what everyone had thought long dead has returned, lurking in the shadows with every intent to throw the realm back into the dark once more. Several years have gone by, the guardians and their comrades failing at every turn to stop this evil. Now, with its strength and forces having grown tenfold, the ancient foe moves to free the monstrous creatures from the World Below. With the future of the realm teetering precariously, Syrilth and her comrades must do everything they can to keep the creatures of the World Below locked away. The old ways of the realm must remain a distant memory. The balance between light and dark must be protected at all costs.

Desert Wind by Czekoladowa27

Dear Reader, I challenge you to a duel! Yes, exactly! Prepare for a battle. The battle for your heart and soul. I'm about to whisk you away and immerse you in a world brimming with magic and secrets. But fear not, on this adventure through the wilderness, you'll be accompanied by Klelia and... that's a surprise :)) Your task is simple. You have to survive... Are you ready to take up the challenge? "I'm dead. I died back in that hut. I don't exist anymore. And now, after everything that's happened, you want to talk?" I raised my eyebrows in surprise. "Who am I to you?" He closed the distance in an instant. I had nowhere to escape; there was a wall behind me, and he stood before me. "Are you really asking who you are to me, Klelia? You are my sun and moon. The source of my suffering and pleasure. My oxygen. I breathe you every day. Every second of life without you is worthless. Without you, there is no me. That's what you are to me. My private universe. I want to immerse myself in you. To lose myself." "I'm dangerous. At any moment, I could..." Tears welled up in my eyes. "I'm not like you." "You're no more dangerous than me," he interrupted, kissing me hungrily, as if he were desperate for air. P.S. Grab your best sword and cape. Despite appearances, desert nights can be cold.

Devil Fist by Sidd77

Aeternum, a planet teeming with life, boasts lush greenery and sapphire seas. Its origins are lost to time, but theories suggest a singularity that split into two beings: Solis of light and Moros of darkness. Solis burned with harsh light, while Moros swallowed everything in darkness, creating a cycle of creation and destruction that reshaped the universe repeatedly. Exhausted from their eternal battle, Solis and Moros created a battlefield to pit their powers indirectly: Solis birthed the Caeli, and Moros the Infernals. After aeons of war, Solis's forces triumphed, and the god gifted humanity to the Caeli-a race without innate power but with the ability to populate Aeternum. The once barren planet flourished with life. Humanity, along with other beings spawned by the war, thrived in peace. Yet, peace was fleeting. Humanity, representing both light and darkness, became a target for Moros, who was trapped in the planet's core. Moros fed on humanity's negativity, spawning more Infernals to erode his prison. Humanity, a battery for the Infernals, faced obliteration as civilization after civilization fell. The Caeli, finite in number and power, struggled against the growing threat. However, humanity refused to be mere batteries. They were going to fight back. No matter what.
