Sounds of Pride and Passion
Raised in the unforgiving streets of modern-day New York, Damian's early life was a relentless struggle for survival. Orphaned at birth and shuffled into an overburdened system, Damian's time in the foster homes ended early at age ten, thrusting him into a harsh reality where low-end criminal work became his only means of getting by. At fifteen, a chance encounter with Hong Mushi, a peaceful old musician with a blurry past and a heart full of wisdom, becomes the turning point in Damian's life. Under Hong's mentorship, Damian discovers the power of music and its capacity to convey emotions he's never been able to express. With the ability of music in his hands, Damian begins to transform, leaving behind his life of crime for one of creativity and hope. By eighteen, Damian has not only secured a college scholarship but is also transitioning into adulthood with a renewed sense of purpose and dreams of a bright future. Yet, just as he stands on the brink of a new life, an astonishing revelation turns his world upside down. Damian learns that his heritage is not human but part of a lineage steeped in ancient power and mystery. As Damian grapples with his newfound identity, he must navigate the challenges of adulthood while uncovering the secrets of his heritage. His journey of self-discovery is marked by the same resilience that saw him through his toughest years. (Notice: This story is not conforming to any audience.

Mythbreaker: A Detective's War Between Worlds
In a world reshaped by a cataclysmic surge of light, the realms of myth and man were merged into one. But to prevent panic and chaos, an underground organization was formed to keep the mythical world hidden from human eyes. Ren Saito, a gritty detective with a haunted past, finds himself pulled into this shadow war after a string of brutal murders hint at something darker - something divine. As human corpses begin showing signs of mythical tampering, Ren is offered a choice: ignore the truth, or become part of a force that protects it. But the more he uncovers, the closer he gets to a forgotten god bent on rewriting reality itself. With allies from both worlds and a memory-driven weapon forged from grief, Ren must solve the greatest case of his life before humanity becomes a footnote in a god's cruel plan.

They discover a pearl-black cone at the water's edge, unveiling two bizarre instruments that set them on a worldwide quest for discovery. The journey takes them to the alien landscape of the Devil's Marbles in the Northern Territory of Australia, guided by Backpack Bill, a charismatic local tour guide. As the Montanas unravel the secrets of the cone, their pursuit unwittingly triggers an ancient alien trap, revealing Earth's intellectual threshold to a distant star system. In a maddening environment, the couple deciphers a death message, inadvertently initiating a time-delayed sequence for the obliteration of the planet.

You thought their love story was one of those sweet "enemies-to-lovers" kind of deals, until you saw the truth from way up here. It's a mess. Betrayal. Anger. Love. Secret identities. A fight that's way more personal than you ever imagined. But hey, that's not your problem, right? You're just a bird. Except, well... Maybe you care.
