Jake Nightingale, a human-turned-machine, receives a fragment of the Singularity's power, called The Dark. The Singularity, who is God, sends beings called The Grand Order to retrieve its lost power. The Architect, the most powerful machine, 3rd General of the Grand Order, steals his heart which contains his emotions and memories. Jake's power finally awakens, and it reveals to him, The Void, a place created by Jake's conscience filled with Dark Matter. 

Jake is introduced to the Resistance, a faction made of rebels, preparing to take down the Syndicate, an empire ruling the vast range of Galaxies in this story. The Resistance forms an alliance with Jake, to fight against the ruling power. Jake goes on a journey to seek answers from The Architect's creations, machines persuaded to stop Jake in return for the life they deserved. Now, the machines, The Architect and the might of the World Engine stand in Jake's way. 

This is the journey taken by Jake, of blood and warfare to get his heart back, and regain his lost human life.

[The entire story is getting a structure and new narrative. Will be updated in a year or so.]

There are choices that feel like accidents. Decisions that arrive dressed as inevitability. And men who never act without already knowing the outcome. She doesn't realize she's been chosen, only that the world begins to bend when she steps into it. Elysian is not a place for coincidence. It rewards foresight, patience, and those ruthless enough to pull strings no one else can see. And he has built his empire on 𝘣𝘰𝘵𝘩. Power recognizes power and hers has 𝘢𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 been dangerous. What looks like an unfortunate crossing of paths is anything but. Beneath every gesture lies intent. Beneath every silence, calculation. And beneath his attention, something sharpened by resistance rather than softened by it. They share a history that should have stayed buried, not because it was harmless, but because it taught them exactly how lethal the other could be. She thinks she's choosing her moves. He's been planning around them. Power shifts. Motives tangle. Obsession slips into something that looks like protection, like necessity until walking away stops being an option. Here, unions aren't built on submission, they're forged between equals who know precisely where to strike. A woman who refuses to be owned. A man who refuses to lose control. And a bond that was never a matter of if, only when. And the best part? 𝘕𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘳𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘱 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘢𝘤𝘤𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘭.

7 parts Ongoing Mature
"Hogwarts? No, I'm from Magworldz, a far superior magical realm." In 2225 AD, Earth is under siege. Alien invaders remodel and consume humanity, claiming to be our ancestors. Amid the chaos, Jake's family is targeted by a powerful faction obsessed with his rare bloodline. His father is assassinated. His mother vanishes. And Jake is left to grow under their watchful eye - until his bloodline matures and they come to claim him. However, Jake is no ordinary teenager. Beneath his quiet exterior lies the soul of a legendary Archon Magus from Magworldz - a realm of towering spellcasters and ancient arcane power. He strikes back-first by gaining a superpowered follower, then by summoning his divine-tier familiar from Magworldz: the SHE-Synth Hivemind Empress, which later merged with Humanity's bleeding-edge Metaverse tech, she evolves into a techno-arcane war queen. Jake: "If this is how this world treat me... then I don't see why bringing my divine-tier followers would be unfair." Prepare for a cataclysmic collision of Magic Power, Technological advancement, and Alien Bio-tecs Warriors! ---------------------------------- This novel is a LitRPG-style progression adventure featuring two distinct paths of advancement: Magus (magic users) and Dymin Warriors (gene-augmented martial artists). ----------------------------------- From time to time, I will publish or update a Lore Overview.

In a world ruled by disease, fear, and government control, survival is no longer a choice-it's a rebellion. After a virus devastates the population, the U.S. government uses the crisis to seize control, turning teenagers into test subjects in brutal experiments meant to create super-soldiers. Those who are captured vanish into labs where their memories are wiped, their bodies are altered, and their identities are erased. Those who escape are left with scars-and the crushing guilt of the ones they couldn't save. Artemis Cross was never supposed to be a leader. But when she's captured and stripped of everything she knows, she becomes Subject 88, forced into a nightmare of pain, injections, and psychological warfare. Her mind begins to fracture-but one memory refuses to die: Z, the boy who once held her together, the boy she can't forget no matter how deep they dig into her brain. Outside the walls, Z is haunted by her absence. He can't eat, sleep, or breathe without seeing her face. As he and a fractured group of survivors drive through a collapsing America-riddled with graffiti, riots, and people fighting to the death over scraps-Z promises he'll find Artemis, even if he has to tear the system down piece by piece. But the deeper they get into the truth, the more twisted it becomes. Friends begin to betray each other. Love starts to fracture. And the world they thought they knew is far more dangerous than they ever imagined. Because this isn't just about surviving the system anymore. It's about burning it to the ground.

Trepidation: Act 1 by CashewNutt12
10 parts Complete Mature
10,000 years in the future, humanity has long since inhabited a region of space simply known as the "Habitable Zone of the Milky Way," or simply the "Habitable Zone." Many advancements have been made, though many are irrelevant to the billions - or perhaps more - of souls scattered across space. Everything operates under the silent, vague, but present scrutiny of the gods, with thaumaturgic talents dominating many human cultures in some capacity. Churches reign over the post-Altarum territories a century after the Silence. The World, at least as far as many within the Habitable Zone are concerned, is a cold, thoughtless plane of existence. It is within a single vessel, known as the CSS Groundskeeper, do things begin to influence the "Things To Be," as labeled by followers of the pantheon. Within this ship, two individuals will face the beginning of what is to be unimaginable horrors within an unforgiving universe, both with the same goal: do not succumb to the darkness. Trepidation: Act I is the first story in what is to be a much longer novel detailing the story of two individuals in the cold universe. Act I may contain disturbing content for some readers. Special thanks to Lilian (liliantherat@bsky.social) Elise S. (Seventh Bean) Colt Klassic C.W.K. Peregrine Nasturtium_K Chaz Shade For inspiration and your characters for novel adaptation. Trepidation, Act I and future acts, would not be possible without all of you. (I am awestruck at how well this has done. The read to vote ratio is something I never could have expected, and I thank both my friends and all new readers for current and continued support, even if the support is merely reading. Seriously, thank you.)

NYX: CLASSIFIED//GENETIC WEAPON // DO NOT ENGAGE. Not a biography. Not a confession. A map of blood and memory, scrawled between the lines of war and science. She not a hero. She not a villain. She's a weapon that woke up... and began asking questions. And buried in these pages - coded in ink, shadow, and silence - is the truth the Dominion tried to erase. She doesn't write history. She rewrites destiny. Imagine Star Wars, Fifth Element and Star Trek had a baby together 👀👀👀 Maybe a hint of Marvel 🌝 Enjoy my first bits😈
