The Forbidden Tale of Tuscanvalle

In a world where knowledge, blood, soul, wealth, and even rapture are cultivated to fuel one's ambition, there's always a price to pay.

Years ago there was a blackout. One day all the lights went out. The cars stopped running. Electricity no longer existed. Nothing that ran on electricity works anymore. People panicked and tried to survive for as long as they could. Some made it out of cities the others stayed. Our government fell and militias took control. The Monroe militia took over. Then one day he found electricity again. He used it for bad and soon conquered the whole world. Years later our world now runs on electricity again. The Monroe militia is still in power and they force teens to go into an academy to train as merciless killers. This is where I go.

The Earth Above Us
One false number is all it takes for Etheodra to discover that there is more to the universe than her planet, and to find an unlikely friend. Let's assume we are not living on earth.

Unexpected Future!
We think and we expect! We do this both a lot and without these there is not much to do. Will there be any action without expecting a future from it? If so, then that is amazing. However, it is not in most people's worlds. And mainly in four people's world who had this vivid description of expectations for their futures, but ended up with another vivid unexpected futures. Everything was simple from the beginning in their own perspectives, but it was not from the beginning in real sense and it keeps on moving far away from simple with each moment and in the end turns the lives upside down but not the four people's because one of them got what they want but still went with the flow like an innocent. With that confusion, misconceptions arise and secrets will be revealed along with a clearance of misunderstandings and what not. It all seems to be too much of a trap, but what can anyone do when they really got trapped by the destiny or is it something else. All this can either be described as "What is meant to be always finds a way" or as "Karma is really a bitch"... Let's see what can be the perfect description...Complete
Fated To Be
If God is not going to punish the sinner then I WILL. People sometimes say to you, "Don't bother with them, their karma will come back to them someday". That is why sometimes people break themself in order to wait for that moment. But sometimes that moment never comes and you yourself are the one rotting away in this miserable life, so why wait when you could put your hands in it? "You are wrong. Whether I am here or not, your punishment will always come to you, I just.. make it much sooner for you. As I didn't have time to wait any longer", he said with a dark gloomy eyes that had lost their lights. When Shen Wei ran away at the age of 15 years old, he never thought that he would come back again, trying to untie the knot that had been lingering in his heart for years, he came back once again trying to understand some events, but to be honest, for him, it is just an excuse, he just wants to see the lights once again, to be able to proudly says "Mom, I have made it, the sinner have already been punished and you have nothing to worry about anymore". Even if it means to drag others down to hell with him. Shen Wei, "Because since the beginning, we have not been given a choice, we have been entangled in this trap, if we don't struggle to get away, you and I will surely lose. And I.. am not the type of person who will easily let other people bully me" Notes: First time making my own character, I think it will be hard for me to clearly describe how the character would be, but I will try my best. I must say first that the timeline is around the early 20th century.. probably, it is fictional, so there must be things that are different compared to the history. Thank you for understanding and reading my work.
Plot Twist: It's Still You
Jean never believed in second chances.. But when a cruel twist of fate sent her life spiraling into an endless loop, she was forced to relive the same heartbreak, the same choices, and the same devastating end over and over again. No matter what she did, it all led back to Ian-the man who shattered her heart and the only one who could piece it back together. Ian wasn't willing to lose her. Not again. Each loop brought him closer to understanding the truth, yet no matter how hard he tried to fix things, something was always missing. With every attempt, Jean slipped further away, torn between the love they once had and the pain that kept repeating itself. As they unraveled the mystery behind the time loop, memories from past and present collided, revealing forgotten moments, rewritten fates, and a love too strong to be erased. Friends and family, unknowingly caught in the cycle, began remembering too-each playing a role in a story far bigger than they ever imagined. But the biggest revelation? Their unborn child-the one who was never given a chance to exist-was the key to everything. With the final loop approaching, Jean and Ian faced their ultimate test: Was love enough to defy fate? Could they rewrite the past and finally escape the cycle? In a shocking twist, history was rewritten, the accident never happened, and the loop shattered forever. And at the heart of it all-through every version of themselves, every timeline, every universe-it was always Ian and Jean. Because no matter how many times life tried to change their story... Plot twist: It's still you.
