    Losing someone they care about, a troubled wanderer must journey across a wasted world with their new found companion. Finding happiness, meaning, and maybe a little something more with his new friend, Yulin has an unsure but worth while adventure ahead. There are themes like violence, intense and sad scenes, death, and maybe some more romantic related 'intense' scenes as well (mild NSFW). This is a trigger warning. These themes are meant to enhance the plot, but if you're uncomfortable, feel free to skip ahead or even not read this if it's not for you. In any case, I hope you have fun exploring this world, as well as seeing the characters interact with their environment... and each other. *Updates every other Tuesday. I'm excited to share the chapters that I am currently editing, and I would like to hear anything you have to say about the story.

    ASCENDANTS OF THE FALLEN EARTH " When fire fell, silver whispered." The night the sky bled silver, a comet tore Earth open, unleashing Celestia-a raw, living power that reshaped the world. Now, in a fractured age of overgrown ruins and mutated beasts, humanity clings to existence in underground havens, where some are born with its volatile light in their veins. Eris, touched by the silver, battles the untamed power that threatens to consume him. Kaylah remains his fiercely loyal anchor, her presence a shield against the monstrous transformation he fears. But their fragile peace is crumbling. Mutants and "Awakened" clans seek to control the world. "WHEN THE SKY BLED SILVER" was the first title of this novel. 2025 Myobee aka Ayeshi Mio.

    Compared to many other parts of the world, Southeast Asia was largely spared from the direct impact of Doomsday. While this was cold comfort in light of social unrest, political turmoil, radioactive fallout and throngs of refugees especing the night The Philippines, however, bore the better bulk of the few nuclear weapons that were targeted there that fateful day on the 26th of September, 1983. Which makes its resurgence as a regional power not only that much more startling and in more than one respect representative of the wider region's successes.

    A group of friendly, half-rotted teenage zombies share a collapsing house in a world full of mindless undead, paranoid survivors, and extremely questionable food. Unlike ordinary zombies, Milo and his housemates can still talk, think, joke, and almost remember who they used to be. Most days, their biggest problems are broken appliances, missing body parts, ridiculous chores, and stopping Crumbs from eating something important. But when lucid zombies begin losing their memories, the residents of the Mostly Dead House are forced to leave the couch and investigate a conspiracy that could erase the last intelligent undead forever. A comedic post-apocalyptic series about friendship, found family, bad decisions, and saving the world while technically already dead.

    I've always been fascinated with stars. Stars. Even the name just rolls off the tongue and right into your wildest imaginings. Ever since I was a kid, I would stare up at the sky every summer night, and name every constellation I knew...which happened to be all of them, considering I memorized an entire book about astrology when I was twelve. Years later, that would not be the case. I remember one night, just a few weeks ago, that I looked up at the very same stars I had seen my entire life and felt nauseous. That night, it made me physically sick with disgust to look at those familiar patterns of light. What had once brought me joy now only stirs up painful memories. How times change. Never again would I look at those stars with the childish wonderment and fascination of the past. Never again would I look upon those glowing orbs, bask in blissful ignorance, and think that they were all alone up there. I could never again say that we are completely alone in this universe. Never again would I look upon a certain gravestone and not blame those cold, calculating stars. I, Stella Wolfe, would come to discover true corruption, true evil, true friends... and maybe even true love. Is is possible that we could still save the world?After everything have done to me, and to humanity, do we even stand a chance? Well I guess alien hybrid powers, an real live alien-turned-talking-cat-turned-human(?), and a few other psychotic people could help... You'll just have to read the last page to find out... ⦁☓☽☓☾☓⦁ (If you were too lazy to read that whole thing, no worries. Men in Black meets Divergent meets some cliche mystery horror film is the perfect summary and all you really need to know. Your welcome, my lazy friends.)
