The fire that destroyed the Essency estate burned for one night.
The rage it left behind would take years.
At fifteen, Maverick Essency watched his family's four-hundred-year legacy reduced to embers - and discovered, in his father's journal, that it was no accident. Someone above the Nine Noble Families ordered it. Someone powerful enough to never be questioned.
They forgot to kill the son.
Now Maverick has two years, one name, and a plan that begins at the Sagitoria Royal Academy of Magic - where the children of his enemies study, scheme, and believe themselves untouchable.
They have never met anyone like him.
The Essence of Independence is a dark fantasy of grief, strategy, and a boy who learns that the most dangerous weapon isn't magic - it's patience.

Ēklāvyā Ānūjāā : Ēkāntīkā
{𝙀𝙙𝙞𝙩𝙚𝙙} The world remembers Eklavya-the boy who gave his thumb in devotion, and was forgotten by the very system he honored. But history never spoke of the one who watched it happen. His sister. Ēkāntīkā :- born in the shadows of the forest, raised in silence, and shaped by a wound that was never hers... yet burned just as deeply. Where Eklavya chose devotion, she chooses defiance. Where he bowed to Dronacharya, she questions him. And when destiny begins to shift, it is not through gods or kings but through a girl who refused to accept her place. In a world bound by dharma, she dares to ask... what if dharma itself is flawed?

Timepass Time Travel (Mahabharat)
Sid just wanted to escape Shriya's complaints. Shriya just wanted to go home. And Saanvi? She probably just wished for some good sleep after a hectic month of pre boards. But fate AND a very suspicious auto driver seemed to have other plans. One moment, in Kali yug, these teens were dodging the dreadful question of "What next?" and in the next, they find themselves in Dwapar yug, dodging chariots, curses and confused Mahabharat warriors, all thanks to that one auto driver who casually asked, "Past or future?" and laughed when Saanvi sighed, "Past. I hate growing up anyway!" Now, the only way back home is by finding that auto, which is no longer "available for ride" on Ola or Uber, and has probably disappeared into another century for it's next ride! PS1: The first few chapters may be slow. So, kindly be patient until the characters meet the Mahabharata folks! PS2: The idea, setting, story, names and everything related to this book is totally fictional. Any resemblance is completely coincidental. This book is meant for laughs, step in to have some fun! :) © | Copyrights reserved @sssm2569
In the flow of time
She was never meant to change history. Only to witness it. Carried into the world of the Mahabharata, Gangadatta finds herself living among princes, rivalries, and unspoken rules that decide a person's worth. As skill is weighed against birth and loyalties are forged in unexpected ways, she watches moments unfold that will one day become legend. This is not a retelling of the epic, but a story that moves quietly beside it - through glances, silences, and choices made before fate takes its final shape.
Adrishta: The Final Incarnation
Adrishta: The Final Incarnation Volume I - The Fall Written by Dark Foxey While exploring a forbidden ancient site buried deep beneath the Himalayas, a man comes closer than anyone ever has to uncovering a truth long erased from history. But just as the final answer reveals itself... he dies. His soul is taken by the ruler of death, for final judgment. Yet something is wrong. No sins. No virtues. No karmic threads binding him to past or future. A life without good. A life without evil. A soul that does not belong to the cycle. Before judgment can be passed, he does the impossible - he escapes. But destiny cannot be denied. In a universe collapsing under the weight of Kalyug, his existence has already disturbed the balance of creation. Reborn into a world on the brink of cosmic ruin, he must uncover why he was never part of the karmic cycle... and why the gods fear his return. When time itself begins to fracture, only one truth remains: Some souls are not reincarnated by fate. They are reborn to end it.

Can a modern mind survive the politics of the Svarga or the traps of fate, or will he be just another name lost to history? SI-OC. Self-Insert.
