Not so long ago, humanity fought the gods above them. The war against the Ethereals was long and bloody, and only the discovery of magic saved humanity from total annihilation. With the fusion of magic and technology, they clawed their way to a stalemate; in time, the war was over. Humanity had secured their freedom...or so they thought.
The Ethereal War changed life on Earth forever. The world is now plagued by glyphstorms-- constant, magic-infused dust storms that drive those who linger too long to insanity. Traveling within them is thought to be impossible, and the only shelter comes in the form of magical shield domes over humanity's cities. Progress is rapid, yet isolated to pockets of civilization. In the same world where some people thrive, many others struggle, their spirits kept alive only by the hope of a better future. But the future is uncertain; until humanity can discover the secrets of shield tech and brave the storms that divide them, they will never be truly free.

This is a collection of short stories that take place within Solace, a fictional science-fantasy setting I have been working on since January 2025. This is not the mainline story, but may involve side plots, alternate perspectives of story events, etc. Basically this is my way of getting back into writing on Wattpad and having a catch-all for any short stories related to Solace. This will be updated as I go, and I'd love to hear feedback!

Remains of Humanity
After a nuclear war nearly in 2150 the whole Earth has become uninhabitable for humans. There are some major cities which are still running but have very scarce resources such as food, water and oil. There are tall, thick walls protecting people from the outside world, surrounding the whole city and there is a ceiling, blocking the radiation from seeping in as air is filtered through the roof. The year is now 2205 which is the beginning for Earth to become how it was before. There are a group of people called The Warriors who go out and try to look for resources, facing death daily. A seventeen year old boy tries to steal food for his friend, he gets caught and is sentenced to death. The only way he could get out is if he joined The Warriors to search for a mythical jungle which is rumored to be flourishing in food and water. The journey is going to be very dangerous and death can come at any corner. There are bandit clans, somehow surviving outside of the walls and new types of animals unseen from humans that they didn't know existed. He will meet new friends, make some enemies and will be manipulated to do some really idiotic things, will he survive the journey and become a hero? Or will he die anyway?Complete
Stellar Nexus: Chronicles Across Shattered Realities
When the multiverse cracks, only the forgotten shall remember. Across an infinite lattice of realms, where wormholes carve paths through dimensions and stars burn with coded prophecy, a cataclysm stirs, an ancient, deliberate, and far older than time itself. The Original Continuum is unraveling. Summoned by a cryptic terminal message, seven chosen souls, Sol, Xairo, Caelith, Jacob, Kyle, Aris and Ryn, unaware that they are the last safeguard between existence and absolute collapse. Each bears a dormant connection to a Spirit, a spectral echo of their will, far weaker than a Conduit, yet potent enough to shape reality through combat, memory, and resolve. But the true storm brews far beyond. The Godly Conduits, eternal forces like Absolute Anarchy, Perfect Tranquility, and 0, have begun to stir. Once symbols, now sentient. Once anchors, now fractured weapons. These beings do not serve. They decide the fabric of spacetime itself. With the emergence of the Several God tier Orb, mythical artifacts forged before the First Collapse, and the resurgence of the Veltrian Script, language of the Titans and Aetherials, the past and future bleed into now. Realms are falling into Miasmia, and the Watcher of Phantomnexis has taken the stage, a being who deceived even the Annihilator itself. This is not a battle for peace. It is a war for continuity. A rewriting of meaning. To stand against the coming void, they must transcend what they are. Not champions. Not heroes. But concepts, forged in entropy, bound in memory, and risen through will. There came a time when the prophecy fell, when truth withered into its final testament. From that end rose the arch nemesis, the substantial antimony of all order, wrapped in the shroud of the ultimate miasmia, repeated through histories of Atlantis itself and beyond.
Our Conscious Fields; What is living?
Slow paced narrative set in a world awakened to panpsychism and innate abilities following the fall and rise of society. A gentle approach to world building with a bit of humor, romanticism, and just enough hints of drama without going into it. When everyone writes about how it could all go wrong or what happens after it does; who wants to read about what happens if it just goes right for once? Still conflict and drama but, the hard work is already done. Now you just get to see a glimpse of what happens in a reality where it all works out. Work in progress - Inspired by Ready Players?; One Chaotic Answer This will be a slower update than Ready Players? but hopefully be more full in edits and depth. Comments and suggestions considered, otherwise please enjoy as this book and story unfolds. Thank you
.Daughter Of Both Sides.
In a world similar and yet very different from ours, that's where our story will lead us. Even in a world of supernatural and magic, there can still be out of the norm things.....

.A Spark From Before.
What would you do if you were suddenly thrust into a future you were never meant to see? Few can answer that question and those that could would wish they wouldn't know the answers. The world she came to see differed greatly from her own, and yet it still was hers, and she came back to it with one goal, save it from annihilation by the hands of those living in it...

Project: Solanum
History called it the Great Hysteria. The Solanum strain of SARS-CoV-2 didn't just sicken the world; it fractured its mind. While most suffered a severe respiratory illness, a small percentage were afflicted with a terrifying neurological degradation: violent aggression, followed by a vacant, catatonic state. Society's fear, once directed at a virus, was now aimed at the infected-the confused, the aggressive, the lost souls shambling through silent cities. We didn't collapse from the plague, but from the terror of each other. A millennium later, in 3035, the scars of that panic are etched into our DNA. But now, we have a key to undo it. Project: Solanum is not a mission of prevention, but of redemption. Our team will travel back to the pandemic's peak, armed with "Aetheris," a miraculous mRNA vaccine that can be delivered directly to the bloodstream. It doesn't just create immunity; it hunts the Solanum virus in the brain, reversing the neurological damage and pulling the infected back from the brink. Our mission is simple: cure the past to save the future. But how do you heal a world that has already learned to fear its own? The real virus we must fight may not be Solanum, but the primal panic it unleashed.
