I can't believe this is happening. I can't see anything at all. Is this what it's like to be in darkness? Or maybe I'm just in shock from a sudden jolt. Maybe I'm not really seeing anything at all. Am I even alive? I could be in a dream...or in a nightmare.

Wings of a New Life
When I woke, I wasn't human anymore. The last thing I remember is the impact-a heavy blow, a flash of light, and then darkness. But when my eyes opened again, everything had changed. My body was no longer my own. My senses were heightened, my movements alien. And I was alone, face down in what seemed like an endless, echoing cave. I can't explain what happened, or why I've been reborn this way. A dragon? How could this be real? With each new discovery, I learn more about the creature I've become-but I also wonder: Was it all an accident? Or is there something more sinister at play? I'm trapped between two worlds-my old life, lost to the shadows, and this new existence, where every step shakes the earth beneath me. But I have no choice. I must learn to survive in this new form. Because I can't shake the feeling... I'm not the only one here.

Naseria
Everything is just the beginning. You wake up in a foreign place, disoriented, with no memory of who you are. The faces around you are unfamiliar, yet there's a strange sense of recognition, as if you've seen them before in some forgotten dream. Every step you take unravels new mysteries, pieces of a life you can't remember but instinctively know is yours. What did you forget? And why does it feel like your entire past is something you'd rather never remember? As you dig deeper, it becomes clear that everything around you - the people, the surroundings, even the events - has been meticulously set up, as if someone wants to force you to recall those memories. But who is behind this? Why are they so desperate for you to remember? What is it in your past that holds so much weight? The more mysteries you solve, the closer you get to the truth. But with each answer comes more questions. What did you do in that forgotten past, and why is someone so determined for you to relive it? And the final question lingers in your mind: If you solve all the mysteries, will the truth set you free? Or will it trap you in a reality you wish you had never uncovered?

When I fought beside her in World War II, longing for something I didn't remember? When she found me in the streets, revealing the truth about who we were-who we had always been? When I walked the neon streets of a cyberpunk future, unaware I was already hers? When I shattered the world to give us a second chance? This is my story. My love. My pain. My fate.Complete
