Memories are power. Memories are profit. Memories are everything.
Kael has built his life on stealing them, one dive at a time, in a city that chews people up and leaves them hollow. But when a routine job uncovers the Hive-a government program designed to strip individuality from every citizen-Kael finds himself at the heart of a rebellion he never wanted.
With his estranged sister hunting him, a charismatic ally hiding secrets of his own, and an ancient force whispering from beyond, Kael must face a truth that terrifies him: he may be the only key to stopping the Hive.
But saving humanity might cost him the one thing he values most: his freedom.

The Memory Rebellion
📘 Echoes of Origin - Book I: The Memory Rebellion By E.S. Nyra In a future where memories are government property and forgetting is survival, seventeen-year-old Lira Caellin wakes from a routine memory wipe-but something is wrong. Her dreams are too real. Her instincts too sharp. Her life... too familiar. When she crosses paths with Kael, a fugitive branded by the past, they discover a buried truth: They've lived this before. Together, they must uncover their stolen identities and ignite a rebellion against a terrifying reality-one where alien descendants of humanity now rule in silence, controlling memory, time, and fate itself. Some memories can't be erased. And some truths refuse to stay buried.
Tabula Rasa
The gods got tired of meaning. So they built one last story - a man born without memory or destiny. A "tabula rasa." In a world where faith is performance and freedom is a brand, Kael is the experiment no one planned to survive. Watched by a broken prophet and a creature who kills to feel alive, he becomes the question his creator never dared to ask: What if the only way to be real is to stop playing the part? ⚡ A mythpunk story about exhaustion, rebellion, and the search for something true in a universe that forgot how to mean.
Bound by the reach
They were never meant to choose. But some things can't be controlled. Ariana was raised to believe in the system. In perfect pairings. In duty. When she's matched with Kael-distant, unreadable, and nothing like the future she imagined-her world begins to crack. He's lived in Eros Reach for years, yet carries secrets no one dares to ask about. And he's angry-at her, at the system, at whatever he left behind. Sent to a remote facility with one goal-produce three children, then return to their separate lives-Ariana tries to follow the rules. Kael refuses to play along. But in the silence, in the stillness, something begins to change. What happens when the person you're forced to live with becomes the only one who truly sees you? And what if the greatest threat to the system... is falling in love? "The system chose for them. But the heart never follows orders."Complete

Who is the Predator now?
{ Beauty, Blood and Honor. } In a world on the brink of collapse, where steel cities choke the sky and the rich toss scraps to the dying, one woman walks the line between survival and vengeance.
