21 parts Complete
A Former Marine, now a self-sustained mountain man. After his time in the military, Isaac couldn't adjust to normal civilian life. Haunted by the trauma of war and the loss of his wife and young daughter in a car accident, he retreated to the mountains to live a solitary life. His military experience gave him an appreciation for survival, discipline, and focus, which have all been vital for his life in the wilderness. Isaac's father and grandfather were both mountain men themselves, though his father was more of a hunter and trapper, while his grandfather believed in the old ways, including local superstitions and folklore. Isaac's mother died when he was a boy, and his father raised him to be tough and self-sufficient, teaching him to hunt, track, and live off the land. His father, however, also warned him about the dangers of the mountain and the power of the old spirits, which Isaac dismissed as fanciful stories-until now. The loss of his family is Isaac's defining trauma. He blames himself for their deaths, though it was an accident. He retreated to the mountains as a way to escape the guilt and sorrow that plagued him in the outside world. Living in the mountains has been a form of self-punishment, but also a way to find peace. However, the isolation has also made him more vulnerable to the forces that lurk there. At first, Isaac's goal is simply to survive the mysterious force that is stalking him. He uses his survival skills to outlast the creature, but he soon realizes that there is no running from The Wachter-it will keep coming for him. As the story progresses, Isaac's motivations shift. He recognizes that surviving isn't enough-he needs to face The Wachter head-on, not just to protect himself, but to lay to rest the guilt he has carried for years. Defeating the creature becomes a way for him to reclaim his life and find redemption for his past mistakes.

Selected Golden Book amongst all categories in the Seasonal Awards 2021 Winner in Fantasy Category at the Seasonal Awards 2021 *** Moses, a poor boy accused of murder and banished to Elisium, finds out that exactly a loop (441 years) ago, on the same day, Solomon, a young prince running from his father's murderers landed in Aden and transformed the whole world, and now Moses has to do the same. However, an explorer has made Moses's daunting task near impossible by unearthing the portal connecting the two worlds and discovering that everything that exists on one planet has its exact copy on the other, including humans. When the people of the two worlds created identical by nature meet, they realize they are on opposite ends of the spectrum of development . A conflict ensues where the rising Aden overpowers the stagnating Elisium to start a cycle of exploitation. Now Moses, the supposed reincarnation of Solomon the Conqueror, has to set things right by triggering the Transition - a process that puts one world in the ascendancy at the start of every loop - to bring Elisium on par with Aden. The Transitioner can control elements and show miracles by using the tremendous powers of the Amulet of Transition but these same powers can cause massive destruction as Solomon found out when he blew up Elisium's capital. To save Elisium and return to his beloved Aden Moses has to defeat Aden's despotic king who, with his huge armies and deadly weapons, is hell-bent on keeping Elisium under his foot. On a fateful afternoon, Aden's forces drive Moses into a corner to end this Dance of Two Worlds forever. Moses, and Elisium's hope, are at gunpoint but destiny has an ace - Jennifer - up its sleeve to realize an unfulfilled destiny and make the two worlds identical, again.

Born as an outsider, (Y/N) was born right on the southeastern border of the Empire in a large town. But with no family or friends, he grew up as homeless orphan, doing whatever to survive. This eventually lead to him fleeing his homeland and living a life in the wilderness with nothing but rags for clothes, a silver urn, and an Imperial Arms with enough power to cause an apocalypse all on its own. This lasted for a few years before he managed to stumble into the Empire's Capital, AKA the Imperial Capital. His first few months weren't much different his earliest days back in his homeland aside that the Empire was much larger and he was much older, larger, wiser and powerful. Without much of an option, (Y/N) quickly turned to a life of criminal activity, leeching off the more corrupt members of society. This would end up in a lot of deaths and the attention of something more than just one man, the Imperial Army.

However, two things will complicate this process. Night Raid, a group of revolutionary assassins who serve the people and have the same ultimate goal as (Y/N). Esdeath, a general who hails from the northern frontier and is proclaimed as the Empire's Strongest. But (Y/N) didn't expect this to be an easy road. Nothing in his life had ever come easy.
