In the streets of Posantis, Isolde Young has lived her life as a thief-quick hands, sharp instincts, and has one goal, to survive long enough to escape with the only family she has left, her best friend Rowan. But one heist changes everything. When Isolde infiltrates the wealthy kingdom of Notres to steal a mysterious artifact, she awakens a power she was never meant to have-binding herself to a dragon. In a world where only those born of ancient dragon blood can become riders, her existence is impossible... and dangerous. Now, she is no longer just a thief. She is a threat. Forced into the heart of the kingdom, Isolde is placed under the watch of Prince Lucien, a powerful dragon rider with secrets of his own. As war looms and tensions rise between kingdoms, she is pulled deeper into a world of power, politics, and fire she never wanted to be part of. Now, she must choose, fight for a kingdom that would have seen her executed-or run, and risk losing Rowan forever. Because in a world ruled by fire and blood, nothing comes without a cost. And this time... it might be her freedom. Welcome to the Empire of Cinders and Fury. 4.15.26

For centuries, humanity battled its own demons-war, destruction, the ever-present shadow of extinction. But against all odds, it endured. Nations united, wounds healed, and a single banner rose above the entire Earth: United Earth Government and later the United Federation of Planets. By the year 2288, humanity had transformed from a fractured species into a galactic civilization. The Federation stretched across the stars, its influence reaching every corner of the Milky Way. It was an era of peace, progress, and unmatched technological triumph. And yet... they were alone. No matter how far their ships traveled or how many worlds they surveyed, there was no sign of other intelligent life. The universe vast, ancient, and beautiful remained eerily silent. Theories once whispered in academic circles, the "Great Filter," the "Rare Earth" now loomed large and terrifying. Was intelligence a cosmic accident? Was humanity the only one to make it this far? Then, everything changed. On the eve of humanity's historic voyage to Andromeda (M31). As their science vessel prepared for its journey across 2.6 million light years, something unprecedented occurred. In a flash, space itself seemed to twist and fold, as the Milky Way merged with another galaxy in instant, one far larger and older than their own. Now, in this strange, limitless frontier, humanity's greatest adventure was only just beginning. Would they adapt and survive, or uncover something beyond their wildest understanding? Only time would reveal the truth... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Heavily influenced by Nihonkoku Shoukan by Minorou, Anime GATE and various nation summoned novels here in wattpad.

"This is definitely not Tokyo..." One walk, one can of soda, and one whisper that changed everything. Satoru Gojo, the strongest sorcerer of the modern era, is ripped from his reality by a force unlike any curse he has ever encountered. Instead of the neon lights of Shinjuku and the hustle of the metropolis, he is greeted by the smell of hay, the bellowing of earth dragons, and a panorama straight out of a high-budget fantasy epic. In a world where Cursed Energy doesn't exist, and people are born with Divine Protections and Mana, Gojo becomes an anomaly. To the citizens of Lugunica, he is just a blindfolded weirdo; to the local thugs, he is an easy target in expensive clothes. But there is one thing they don't know: you can't slice through Infinity with a sword, and the laws of physics simply don't apply when Satoru Gojo decides to break them. With no money and no map, but wearing that same infuriating smirk, Satoru begins his journey through a new world. He quickly realizes that while the kingdom shines brightly in the sun, forces lurk within its shadows that-for the first time in a long while-might actually provide him with some decent entertainment. Lugunica, welcome your newest, strongest resident. Just try not to blink-you might miss your entire world being turned upside down.

Miguel "Migs" Salazar has been in love with Andrea "Andi" Villareal for as long as he can remember. They've been best friends since high school-always together, laughing, supporting each other through breakups, family problems, and late-night study sessions. To everyone around them, they look like the perfect couple. The only problem? They aren't. To Migs, Andi is his person-his home. But to Andi, Migs is just her best friend. The one who knows her coffee order by heart, who cheers her up with street food, runs after a bad day, and who holds her hand when she cries over other boys. She never notices the way he looks at her, never questions why he never dates anyone seriously. To her, love is something that happens with grand gestures, romantic confessions, and butterflies-not the quiet, steady presence of someone who's always been there.

Disclaimer: This is an AU Warhammer with some lore details that are heavily inspired by @Sagas1023 story. ______________________________ (A Warhammer & TTIGRAAS fanfic) It was the 31st Millennium. Mankind faced one of the bloodiest wars ever witnessed not only by the galaxy, but by the universe itself. For tens of thousands of years, humanity had lived in what many believed to be a perpetual utopia, a golden age born from technological wonders beyond the imagination of lesser civilizations. Alongside their ancient allies and former rivals, they built a vast alliance that spanned the entire galaxy and reached heights that seemed impossible. But even such a civilization was not eternal. From beyond the known dimensions came an unknown and endless race of abominations that consumed every corner in the universe. One by one, stars went dark, galaxies were reduced to nothing and entire civilizations that had lived for millions of years were wiped away. After 100 years of desperate war, the surviving remnants of humanity and their allies made one final attempt to escape extinction. Using a device forged from the combined genius of human and xeno technology, they tore open reality itself and fled from the tendrils of the Great Blight that unraveled creation itself. But an incident happened. Instead of merely crossing into another universe, the refugee ship was thrown through infinite dimensions until it arrived in a new multiverse, one whose laws and systems were completely foreign to them.

[Atlas Grandeur - Book One] Year 476 A.F.W. Morio, a young Morian from Shimori sets out to become a Demonear - someone with the ability to slaughter demons and alike.

But... the warm and welcoming town of Mistwick isn't the same as the dangerous lands filled to the brim with snow, sharpened by trees and hiding thousands of secrets, waiting to be unearthed.

"This world is a legacy system running on an unpatched OS. I'm just here to install the stability updates." When Kazuya, a former systems engineer and corporate slave, was summoned to another world along with his entire house, he didn't ask for a legendary sword. He asked for Fiber-Optic Internet. Armed with the collective wisdom of the entire world via the Internet, there is now virtually nothing he doesn't know. He has zero interest in "grand adventures." He'd rather stay inside his magically-transported home, drink ice-cold cola, and solve the Kingdom's greatest crises via remote work. By treating every disaster-from collapsing infrastructure to "ancient curses"-as a series of logical bugs, he optimizes a world that relies far too much on fickle magic using modern systems thinking. While he "works" from the comfort of his sofa, his black cat Tama-who is secretly the Legendary Savior, Tarmane-is busy "deleting" any hardware threats (monsters) that dare disturb her owner's Wi-Fi signal. The people call him a "Transcendent Sage." The Knights call his instructions "Divine Logic." In reality, he's just a lazy optimizer who knows that in any world, information is the ultimate weapon. An intellectual Isekai comedy where the greatest miracles aren't performed with wands, but with a perfectly executed patch. --- **Note from the Author:** This is the official English version of an original Japanese web novel, currently on going in Japan. While the English release is currently several dozen chapters behind the Japanese original, new episodes will be published here sequentially as the translation is finalized. Updates will be frequent as I work to catch up with the latest Japanese release!

Everything in young Lord Rivien's life is as precise as the sweep of his sword. It has to be: with a dead princess for a mother, an absentee general for a father, and a nursemaid peddling dangerous fairytales to his siblings, precision is the only tool he has to keep his family in order. No matter if it hurts them in the short term. It's the only way to protect them. But when a passionate, poetry-tongued girl invades his dreams and begs him to save her from the monsters hunting her, he'll find himself far from order and even farther from his family. Whatever it takes to get back, he'll do. He'll cast any spell, cut through any monster, spill any blood -- no matter how much that cold determination scares the girl he came to rescue. But if he's not careful, he'll find the most dangerous monsters aren't the ones he can cut through. _______________________ Cover © 2026 Avadel Ink Updates Mondays & Fridays

Adventuring has never come easily to Nihil. As a celestial-born aasimar raised in a temple dedicated to nine death gods, he was raised to believe the Nine would call on him for a great purpose. When he is sent on a pilgrimage across the Material Plane, he finds his gods silent to his prayers. As other entities vie for his attention, his journey is upended by revelations and a tumble into the Abyss, the home of demons. Stuck in the Outer Planes, Nihil gathers a party of unusual allies as they spiral their way through dangerous realms, pursued by the ghosts of Nihil's past, present, and future. ********* DISCLAIMER: Though I as the writer want this to appeal to more fantasy/scifi readers than just D&D fans, the story piggybacks heavily on official D&D lore from all corners of the D&D multiverse. While Nihil is an original character and I take liberties with some worldbuilding, the worlds are not mine, nor are some of the names and faces that pop up throughout.
