Some memories refuse to die. Some are all that's left.
Waking alone in the irradiated wilds of postwar Korea, Jiho carries nothing but a worn pendant, a malfunctioning Pip-Boy, and a memory too fractured to trust. As he searches for answers in a land divided by three warring factions, the Iron Dominion, the Painted Vale, and the Radiant Dawn, Jiho must walk the edge between myth and machinery, violence and silence.
Haunted by remnants of a vanished family and pursued by ghosts in power armor, Jiho uncovers traces of a prewar initiative known only as Sangdo: a secret archive buried beneath ash and ruins. But memory is dangerous, and the truth, once awakened, refuses to sleep again.
In a land where everyone fights to shape the future, Jiho must decide whether to remember, to forget, or to burn it all down.
Set in the ruins of post-apocalyptic Korea, this Fallout story blends familiar themes with a hauntingly original setting.

Bound in the Wastes
In the shattered remains of post-war America, survival is a cruel game. Izzy, a young vault dweller with a dangerous secret experiment buried in her past, escapes into the irradiated wasteland-bloodied, alone, and hunted. She never expects her fate to become tangled with a cynical, battle-scarred ghoul, a man who once lived under another name: Cooper Howard. To him, she's a bargaining chip. To her, he's a captor she swears she'll never trust. But the road across the wastes is long, and every step forces them closer together. Raiders, super mutants, cultists, and the ever-looming threat of the Brotherhood of Steel hound their every move. Izzy fights not only to survive-but to resist the pull of her captor's hidden humanity. Cooper, haunted by who he was before the bombs fell, never intended to care. Selling her was the plan. Letting her get close was never part of it. Yet somewhere between firelit camps, whispered confessions, stolen dances, and blood-soaked battles, the lines blur. And when Izzy's buried secret begins to surface-her body changing in ways neither of them understand-the question becomes whether they'll destroy each other... or find something worth saving in the ashes. Part survival, part slow-burn romance, Bound in the Wastes is a story of betrayal, healing, and the fragile hope of love in a world where everything else is broken.Complete

[COMPLETED] •Being revised... AGAIN (Progress: Intro-Chap. 3)• "We're going back... Understand? There are more threats out here than we anticipated, and they're all after you-" Lukas' voice erupted into static and chunks... I glared at the man in all black as the light continued to beam and blind me. Without my glasses it was actually painful. And then there was silence.

May the Dead Lie Still
The world ended quietly. No meteor, no war, no warning. Just a pulse of red light-and then silence. In the ruins of Japan, the Hive spread like wildfire, a biomechanical virus that didn't just kill-it rewrote. Minds, bodies, cities. Everything it touched became part of a greater, terrifying whole. Iris Vale was supposed to die. Infected during the outbreak, she was taken by Nyx researchers and altered with a prototype serum. She lived-but she wasn't the same. Now faster, stronger, and still linked to the Hive through whispers in her mind, she walks the line between human and something else. But her purpose is clear: Yori, the man she loved and lost, is still alive-imprisoned inside the Hive's central structure, the Citadel. Once a brilliant tech entrepreneur, Yori has become the blueprint for the Hive's future, its chosen host for global domination. If he is consumed, the world won't just be lost-it will belong. With a fractured team of survivors, including Reina-the unstable Listener haunted by voices of the infected-and the determined Dr. Hoshino, Iris launches a desperate mission into the living nightmare of the Citadel. Facing shapeshifting horrors, psychic traps, and twisted versions of her past, Iris must use every weapon she has-her body, her mind, and her memories-to reach Yori before the Hive completes its final overwrite. But deep within the Hive's mental realm, Iris finds that love is not only memory-it is resistance. And the strongest virus of all may be the one that reminds us who we are.Complete

Now he's Agent 07-J - a silent enforcer trained to suppress resistance and erase the people they once were. He doesn't remember her. But his hands still hesitate when she bleeds. As the system tightens its grip, Se-Ra writes her memories into hidden journals and cracked walls, determined to hold onto what the Arena wants her to forget. When fate throws her back into Min-Jun's path, their fractured connection becomes the key to exposing the truth behind the Protocol - and maybe, to remembering what love really means. But in a place where names are triggers and feelings are fatal, remembering someone can be the most dangerous act of all. I Remember is a soft-angst, survival-driven romance set in a collapsing dystopia where memory is weaponized, love is forbidden, and the strongest resistance is knowing who you are - even when they try to erase you.Complete
