Gray isn't a color. It's a thief.
It steals memories, leaches vibrancy, and muffles screams in the chilling reality known as GrayWorld. For fifteen-year-old Kai, grieving his mother, arrival isn't a choice - it's an abduction into a place where time corrodes the self. Here, newcomers, Graylings, find their identities fading like breath on a cold mirror, their bodies subject to arbitrary, horrifying transformations: shrink into nothingness or expand until you burst.
Forget the sun. Forget warmth. Forget who you are. The metallic taste of the lavish food only accelerates the Fade. Asking questions invites punishment. Survival means clinging to fragile anchors - a stopped pocket watch, a fraying photograph - while navigating a landscape of endless gray corridors, lurking Drifters who hunger for warmth, and warring Copies split into hunted Blacks and ruling Whites.
When Kai witnesses the chilling "mercy" of the Butcher, a White copy who harvests souls, he's pulled into the shadows by Silas, a haunted Black copy bearing the weight of sacrifice. Finding refuge in a derelict farm hiding an impossible secret - a subterranean garden pulsing with ghostly light - Kai must ally with the cynical, scarred survivor Jax to unravel the secrets of GrayWorld's brutal Karma system and the nature of the unseen Arbiter who rules from his Tower of Bone.
But in a world designed to erase you, can Kai hold onto his memories, his identity, his very soul? Can he trust his allies when survival demands impossible choices? And what happens when the deepest corruption isn't just in the ruling powers, but potentially within the very fabric of reality... and himself?
Dive into the first volume of an epic dark fantasy series that blends psychological horror with intricate world-building. "GRAYWORLD" is a visceral, mind-altering journey into a reality where memory is currency, identity is fragile, and survival demands a confrontation with the shadows within and without.

In a world where loyalty is currency and silence is survival, Zoe struggles quietly to stay afloat. Beneath her gentle smiles and whispered apologies is a girl fighting not to disappear. She feels like a ghost in her own life-caught between who she's supposed to be and the nagging sense that something is deeply wrong. Whispers swirl through the city streets. Secrets hide around every corner. The people around her play games she doesn't fully understand-yet she's closer to them than she knows. Seventeen, maybe eighteen. Old enough to survive alone, young enough to feel the weight pressing her down. Most days, she drags herself through the motions: clock in. Get scolded. Scrape together rent. Repeat. Hope is scarce. Trust scarcer. Yet beneath her guarded silence, she still dreams. What keeps her going? A memory, faint but burning-her mother, who saw light where no one else did. Maybe it's spite. Maybe it's the aching need to break free from a cycle that's gnawed at her for as long as she can remember. Her world is messy, tangled with politics and secrets of powerful families-some connections she doesn't even realize yet. Some people are kind. Some are cruel. Some... far more than they seem. And Zoe? She's just trying to breathe, carving a sliver of space for herself, one defiant step at a time. Because if she stops, even for a moment... everything she's fought for could slip away. And no one will wait for her to rise again.
Paths Beyond (Under Rewrite)
In the frozen wilderness beyond the village walls, survival isn't guaranteed-it's earned. Grey, a sharp-eyed young hunter gifted with the ability to see ethereal threads of light connecting all living things, walks a thin line between life and death with every step into the snowbound forests. His gift is his greatest tool-and his deepest secret. When the Grand Hunt leads Grey and his squad to a chilling encounter with a monstrous creature and a group of robed strangers led by a sinister old man, the world he thought he knew begins to crack. Ancient powers stir beneath the frost, and the old man's magic reveals a truth far more terrifying than the dangers of the frozen woods. As the village reels from loss, Grey finds himself facing impossible choices. His gift, once a quiet advantage, now feels like a curse drawing him deeper into a conflict he doesn't understand. Shadows whisper of forgotten paths-ancient roads walked by those who sought strength not just to survive, but to transcend. Paths where power can be cultivated, honed, and wielded by those willing to sacrifice everything. But power always comes at a cost. Blood stains the frost, alliances are tested, and every step deeper into the unknown pulls Grey closer to a path he may not be ready to tread-a path where strength isn't just survival, but transformation. And in the depths of the wilderness, where cold winds carry secrets and danger lurks with every shadow, Grey must decide if he's willing to pay the price for what lies beyond.Concluida
