Waiting for Evangeline (Godling: Scions of Order and Chaos #0)
When your soul is too balanced to judge... the gods send you back to tip the scale! Creation and Destruction. Order and Chaos. Two forces eternal, twin truths of the Universe. They call themselves opposites, yet one cannot exist without the other - and in the realm of mortality, neither may act without agents. Enter the Nullis. Souls perfectly balanced. Neither righteous enough for Creation's embrace nor wicked enough for Destruction's claim. In their stillness lies potential - coveted by both sides, claimed by divine hands, and cast once more into life. This is the story of one such soul. Torn from the Soul's Abyss and touched by gods, he is reborn into a strange land at the foot of a mountain that scrapes the sky. He has no name, no past, and no clear future. The others call him simply: Nullis. Before him lies a proving - a gauntlet of magic, monsters, and mystery where power reigns and alignment reveals itself in every choice. Will Nullis ascend and earn true rebirth in the land of the living? Or will he fall once more into the Abyss... nameless, forgotten, and unmade?
The Paradox
What if your own thoughts could infect you? Mumbai is collapsing under a mysterious epidemic known only as The Paradox - a "thought virus" that spreads through whispers and ideas. As the world falls apart, Arjun searches for the truth. But the deeper he goes, the more reality fractures around him. Are the voices he hears real? Or has The Paradox already taken him? A slow-burn psychological horror about fear, identity, and the monsters we build inside our minds.
Dayz Forsaken: The Weight of Silence
Thamias Ambient vanished after the Red Light Event. The world assumed him dead. But when he reappears-bloodied, silent, and wielding a power that bends reality-it becomes clear: he's not the same boy who disappeared. The Resistance needs a symbol. The Storm needs a weapon. And somewhere beneath both, something older and far more dangerous is beginning to stir. The experiments of 001 and Neilson were supposed to rewrite human evolution-but Thamias wasn't part of the plan. He's an anomaly. A Destroyer. Or maybe something worse. Haunted by a voice that doesn't belong to him and hunted by monsters that used to be men, Thamias must confront what he's becoming-and decide whether silence is a shield, or a curse. As war erupts, allies fracture, and cosmic forces begin to whisper in the static, one truth rises above the chaos: The world didn't survive the first god. It won't survive a second.

**CONTENT WARNING:** This story is intended for a mature audience and contains graphic depictions of body horror, psychological trauma, violence, and non-consensual themes. Reader discretion is strongly advised. --- The world did not end with a bang, but with a terrifying, absolute silence. When a colossal machine of alien origin lands on Horsell Common, it doesn't bring war in the way humanity expected. Instead, it releases a silent black smoke that stills every living thing, turning them into statues of flesh, their souls extinguished. Arthur Penhaligon, a writer, finds himself a prisoner within his own paralyzed body, a lone conscious mind in a sea of empty shells. He is harvested and taken to a living, organic factory where humanity is no longer a species, but a resource to be processed. Trapped in a translucent vessel, his only anchor is a silent alliance with another survivor, Edmund. Together, they must navigate the horrific, intimate cycles of the alien facility, where bodies are harvested, minds are erased, and the failures are recycled into food. In a place where survival demands the perfect performance of passivity, what does it mean to remain human?Complete
The Veil ATLAS: Thread of Return
"In the ruins of Earth, silence became the first weapon of the apocalypse. What began as whispers in dreams soon tore through the minds of humanity, leaving bodies to fall like shadows collapsing into dust. Nine millennia later, survivors scattered across distant worlds struggle to remember the home they lost, and the voices that promised both salvation and doom. In a universe where time itself has become fractured, the fate of all realms rests on uncovering what really destroyed Earth... and whether it can rise again." The story begins in 2063, not with explosions or war, but with a chilling silence that spread across the globe. Strange voices crept into the dreams of humankind, luring them toward an unseen force. Then the deaths began. First one man, then cities, and soon the entire world collapsed under a plague of the mind. Nine millennia later, the legacy of Earth's fall still echoes across space. Civilizations that fled to new worlds look back on their birthplace as both a graveyard and a mystery. Legends speak of the whispers that ended humanity's golden age, but no one truly knows if they were divine, alien, or something older than the universe itself. This is the beginning of a saga of survival, memory, and destiny, where dreamers, wanderers, and warriors must confront the truth behind Earth's destruction and decide whether its fall was an ending... or the first step in something far greater.Complete
