In the hush beneath the roots, the first clan was born. These are the sacred stories passed from whisker to whisker-the digger who shaped the den, the scout who marked the trails, the guard who stood firm, the mother who sang the first lullaby. Long before legends had names, the Rootbound made them.

Content Note:
Tales of Rootbound is a mythic fantasy rooted in nature, kinship, and survival. If you enjoyed Watership Down or The Secret of NIMH, you'll feel right at home. These stories are full of wonder and warmth, but also danger, death, and the weight of survival.

While not excessively graphic, the themes may be intense for younger readers-including mentions of loss, clan customs, and mature (but naturalistic) family structures.

Recommended for readers 13 and up.

Ryu Seo-woo is an award-winning best vocalist who tragically died in a plane crash and transmigrated to a BL novel, "Serenade Me, My Angel," which he read out of boredom. He transmigrated into the body of the sub-villain, who shares his name but is a C-list singer with a ruined voice due to throat damage.

In the original story, Seo-woo's character dies in a fire, leaving his genius triplets to be adopted by the main couple.

The Frail Lady Turned Villainess by EmpressCrimson
68 parts Complete
Feared in boardrooms and hated in silence, 26-year-old CEO Evelyn Vireaux built an empire with an iron will and a cruel tongue. But no amount of power or wealth could stop the truth-she was dying. Terminal illness claimed her body, but not her soul. When Evelyn opens her eyes again, it's not in a hospital bed-but in a different world, inside the body of Selene Astera, the frail and neglected daughter of Duke Astera. Mocked by servants, scorned by her siblings, and invisible to society, Selene was as powerless as Evelyn had once been ruthless. Now reborn in a world of nobility and magic, the soul of a cold-blooded CEO simmers beneath Selene's soft smile. They wanted a weak girl to ignore. They'll get a villainess they'll never forget.
The Duke Fell for the Villainess by Rojeen_Zara
200 parts Complete
She was just a tired grade school teacher in the modern world- unappreciated, overworked, and denied her promotion year after year. Her only escape was her favorite otome game... until a tragic accident with a banana peel ended her life. When she opened her eyes again, she wasn't in her small apartment anymore. She was in a luxurious mansion. In a child's body. The villainess of her favorite game. Born as the real daughter of a Marquis, she knew how her story was supposed to end: starvation, betrayal, poison, and death. Her stepmother and stepsister would steal everything from her, and her own father would let her die without a tear. But this time, she refuses to play the role of a doomed villainess. Armed with memories from her past life, loyal brothers at her side, and a sharp tongue sharpened by years of teaching, she'll rewrite fate itself. Yet the world of nobility is more dangerous than she imagined- scheming crown princes, false heroines, poisonous stepmothers, and a cold northern Duke whispered to be a beast. But what if the "beast" turns out to be the one man who sees her for who she truly is?
