The world was shattered when the Rifts tore open-rending the veil between realms and leaving behind ruins, monsters, and echoes of something far older. Magic returned, but not as it once was. Now, power threads through the broken remnants of civilization, hidden in artifacts, memories, and forgotten truths.

In the shadows of this unraveling world, Kyren, a solitary soul burdened by silence, stumbles upon a strange coin etched with impossible symbols. Drawn into the enigmatic Threaded Path, he begins to see the world as it truly is-a place where fate is woven and memory can bleed into reality.

As whispers of past and other realms awaken across the land, Kyren is thrust into a slow-burning mystery that spans realms and time itself. The further he walks, the more he realizes: power is not given-it is taken, shaped, and suffered for. And the threads of fate are anything but kind.

The world is watching. The loom is stirring.
And in the weave of shadows, nothing remains untouched.All Rights Reserved

House of Ash and Gold by herokirito22

Power wears many faces. Magic is just one of them. When a sickly noble heir stumbles upon a strange gift - the ability to see through the veil of power. He sets out to rebuild his crumbling house, not with sword or spell... but with silver, strategy, and secrets. But in a Kingdom where strength is currency and weakness gets buried, Cael Varissen must learn fast: wealth is fragile, war is inevitable, and magic? It's far older and hungrier than anyone cares to admit. What if the most dangerous magic wasn't in spells, but in shrewd business deals... and dangerous alliances of the heart? In a world where political ambition, economic strategy, and forbidden desires hold as much sway as any ancient power, every alliance comes with a price. This is the heart of House of Ash and Gold. ... What to expect: Slow-burn political fantasy with teeth Layered worldbuilding A subtle, mysterious magic system Romance threaded through ambition What NOT to Expect: Instant overpowered MC Fast-food pacing Harem or shallow romance One-note villains Endless exposition dumps

Echo's Of Experience by Solis9

In a world where the absurd is normal, Kai Veyne is anything but. Born with the power of Experience-never suffering the same pain twice-he's about to discover that his greatest strength is also his heaviest burden. From the quiet streets of his hometown to the ruins of Dustview, Kai faces enemies that defy imagination: Collapse, a man who sees destruction as truth; the unstoppable Wave; and Titans older than time itself. Allies are few, but the Collective-a team of equally extraordinary young people-stands by him. Together, they'll fight, strategize, and risk everything to hold back forces that could shatter reality. But not all help comes without cost. Mara, a mysterious figure with the power to Rewrite reality itself, knows a secret about Kai that no one else does-and she's willing to bargain for it. Trust is fragile, choices are deadly, and one wrong step could awaken sparks that even Kai cannot control. As the lines between friend and foe blur, Kai must uncover his past, confront his parents' secrets, and decide what kind of person he truly wants to be. The stakes are higher than ever-because the world doesn't just challenge the strong, it devours the unprepared. Experience it once. Survive it forever. Echoes of Experience.

The Nost by Spbond

Jack and Ann have taken me on a great adventure full of mystery and incredible technology, I hope you'll join us. I know you have a lot of reading choices, but if you have space left in your literary adventure cup, please join Jack and Ann as 2021 turns into 2022, happy reading! __ The demon whispers inside Jack's mind. "They are not worthy, they are cattle, these new humans you covet. The so-called creator has betrayed you, replaced you with these organic imitations. Slaughter them all." It's funny, not in a ha-ha funny way, but a sad, my madness doesn't make sense type of way, Jack thinks, because wasn't he human? Worse still, the voice comes with impulses that are hard to resist. Violence usually ensues. That's why he joined the military. A way to channel his urges into mind-numbing physical effort and war. It works for a time. But alcohol and fighting can only carry on for so long. Finally, he realizes, his only way out is suicide. But when he opens his eyes, he's in the In-Between. The creator has other plans for him, and she won't take no for an answer. Apparently, this isn't his first life and if he doesn't free her from her prison, it won't be his last. His curse is to be reborn without end, without rest, without memory. Only madness. Now Jack is on the run from forces he doesn't understand. It's a new world. The mundane replaced by ethereal artificial intelligence, spontaneous virtual realities, and homicidal bible salesmen. But the creator promises the demon's voice will disappear as soon as he finds the right girl, the right bond. After that, they just have to escape the clutches of those who hunt them, find the Isle of Song, and free the creator from her prison. Or maybe this time, in this life, Jack will figure out what true freedom is. Come along on this action-packed thriller as Jack fights to remember who he is, tries to end an eternal war, and atone for sins he doesn't remember...yet.

BLURRY DAMNATION by Aetherion

Andrew, a nineteen-year-old drifting through another late night, was idly scrolling the Net when a post caught his eye: Choose the abilities you desire most. Curiosity snagged him. He lingered, reading comment after comment, enjoying the endless parade of impossible wishes. The more he read, the more the question burrowed under his skin, until finally he added his own choices to the growing thread. Could Andrew say he regretted it now? How much can shift in a handful of days, when chaos and depravity begin to devour the world? The post had never been harmless. It was bait-a quiet snare designed to lure and remake those who answered. They would be called Chosens, as the unseen entities liked to name their prey. Within days the world splintered. The wills of mortals, suddenly burdened with the gift of Divinity, drowned the earth in a waking purgatory. What happens when ordinary people, whose lives have known only routine, are handed power beyond imagination? Ideals collide. Civilizations break beneath the weight of clashing philosophies as Chosens, half-god and half-monster, fight to prove their truth. Andrew, believed at first to be nothing more than an ordinary Chosen, will learn to move with that rhythm of carnage and madness-and to survive it. A warning you should never ignore... NEVER TRUST THE VISION!

Bound Across Worlds: The God Who Loved Me by vanygold

They say death is the end. For me, death was only the beginning. The last thing I remembered was betrayal-a blade through my chest, warm blood spilling, and the bitter taste of regret. But instead of eternal darkness, I awoke in a void of endless stars, suspended between worlds. Then came the voice. [Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have been chosen by the World-Binding System.] Panels of light appeared before me, filled with rules written in cold, merciless words. [Your mission: Travel across countless realms. Shatter schemes. Crush enemies. Complete your tasks.] [Ultimate Mission: Save the Supreme God. Failure = soul annihilation.] A silhouette flickered in the void-a man cloaked in shadows, tall and terrifyingly powerful. Even faceless, his presence was suffocating. [He will appear in every world. Sometimes as your ally, sometimes as your enemy, sometimes as the one who cannot let you go.] My lips curled in a cold smile. So be it. If the system wanted me to play its little game, I'd play it my way. Scheming queens, arrogant nobles, hypocritical cultivators, and false heroes-let them come. I'd crush them all beneath my heel. But one thing I swore: I would never bow to him. Not to the so-called God. Not to any man. At least... that's what I thought. Because across every world, in every fragment of him I met-he watched me with eyes that burned. A love too deep, too dangerous, too relentless. And in the end... I would have no choice but to face him.

Shattered by QuietV0ic4

"Now, would I go to prison and atone for my sins? Yes, but I cannot. No matter how hard I've tried." ----- "I swear, I'm not crazy! I just...don't know if the truth is better than a lie." ----- "We're better off dead, aren't we?" "...Yeah, we are." "Good." ----- "What's the point in living when you're built without a purpose?" ----- "Deities, gods, whatever you call them, are nothing more than puppets; cruel, unforgivable puppets drenched in the blood of the very people they were supposed to protect." ----- "We've lived a thousand lives, and we were built for only one purpose; for if we weren't, then what right do we have to exist if not to live for solely that purpose? For their entertainment." ----- "We may be without muzzles, but we're still on a leash. Don't forget that." ----- "You lied to me, and that's how all this came to be." ----- To those who find themselves reading this, know that appearances will deceive you. So, until you're safe from them as well, trust everyone fragilely and have your loyalty lie with you, and you alone. (Book one) -Nyxe

World Saga: A Vessel Unbound by Clusterveil

What if the myths were never wrong - just waiting? The world changed the day the towers appeared- impossible monument of stone, sand, and something older than any history. They rose overnight, each pulsing with a power stranger than any other. The fallout was immediate. Governments scrambled. Religions fractured. And myth began to blur with history-until neither could be trusted. Inside each tower, something ancient waited, offering power to those brave-or desperate-enough to listen. Shin was just a student when the towers came. A nobody with nothing to lose. But he walked into the storm and emerged as something else. Now, he hunts what others fear to approach-chasing the truth behind the towers and the divine beings within them. But the higher he climbs, the more the truth begins to twist. The towers aren't doors. They're warnings. And what lies beyond them... is no longer waiting to be found. What to expect: - A competent, strategic MC - Multiple worlds - Unique power system blending cultivation and magic - Rich lore and layered mysteries inspired by Tower of God, Percy Jackson, and Lorien Legacies

SYSTEM:TWISTED LOVE INTEREST CANNON FODDER. by pushisinung

"You are too overpowered. Your existence poses a great threat to my son and daughter of fate. I had no other choice but to kill you." This was the voice of God he heard when he was about to enter the door of death. "A tragic oped character, sigh, its a very popular trend right now. The normal cliche of losing all your loved ones, an illegitimate son of a noble household, possessing overwhelming magic, good looks and what not. But as I kept writing I realised I made you way too oped, to the point your existence became a threat to the plot." The voice of god spoke to him again. "...Are you the one who killed my family?" He asked back with a blank expression. "Yes." Spoke the voice again. This simple one sentence angered him to the point he fought harder against his predestined death. He was enraged. The death of his family was orchestrated by this damn god, his life made miserable and painful, so he had to rise again, back on his two feets so he could destroy the god's world. And so he did. He rose again, defeating his death. Then he had his revenge by almost destroying the world. Almost!!! Before he could lead to the death of the Male and the female lead a thing called system was bounded to his soul. He was forced to leave his world and enter many different worlds. "Well, Unfreeze the OOC!" He demanded with a malicious grin on his face. He had to have his revenge. But most important of all, he had to be the one incharge of his characters. "......." The system shivered at his words, its invisible eyes bulging out. Unbeknownst to him, a GOD had embarked on a journey to a portal of unknown origin right at the time when he was entering a new world. "Oh fuck!" He cursed as he realised a dangerous point. "This is not the protagonist! Who is he?" Novel cover: Drawn by me aka @pushisinung.
