A God of hope.

Heath Dollen was a man in his 40s who lived in a suburban complex in Lund, Sweden. He was lonely and spent most of his days tending to himself after an accident that had left him scarred for life. Even so, he had travelled throughout Europe and Asia, painting and writing avidly about his experiences. When he is not in his apartment, he does his best to give warmth to others around him, helping people around his neighbourhood, aiding in light labour, cleaning the environment, and donating much of his money to those in need. Heath saw the downtrodden teen Elias drop his phone on accident from the other side of the street, so as to help, he thought of buying a new phone for this young man. He introduced himself and after gaining their trust, Heath and Elias became good friends and even got nicknamed 'uncle.' There, he was introduced to many games, specifically sandbox games. It was slow progress, but his life became more fulfilling than ever. Now he had a family to look forward to! But at one point, while Elias was helping with Heath's troubles, he spotted a man who appeared lost, walking across the street in traffic, yet was somehow never hit with phantom-like grace, Heath said aloud that they should be careful there and asked if they needed assistance. The man, that 'thing,' turned to him. Now walking towards Heath robotically, yet avoiding the vehicles like a phantom, they soon came upon him. Once close enough, its features were noticed: A beautiful, yet uncannily androgynous face, eyes that appeared too clear and glassy, and skin that was too perfect with no features of wrinkles or pores and no hair throughout. A voice that sounded harmonic with the world spoke, yet their mouth never moved. "Perfect." A melodic sound, one expected for a tenor, it captivated Heath but simultaneously scared those around him, then. . . Suddenly, Heath blacked out. Hearing the cry of Elias for him. He left this world.

Demons burst forth from the shadows, unleashing a wave of terror and destruction that ravaged the land. Just when hope seemed to flicker like a dying ember, a new force emerged — **the Awakened**. These extraordinary beings, with powers that defied imagination—telekinesis, flight, and cataclysmic abilities capable of obliterating entire cities—rose to challenge the onslaught. Against insurmountable odds, the Awakened battled valiantly, gradually reclaiming lost territories. Yet, the demons tenaciously clung to their dominion, and the war raged on. In a desperate bid to end the bloodshed, the rulers of the world brokered a fragile truce with the demonic forces, crafting an uneasy semblance of peace. But the scars of conflict ran deep, reshaping the very essence of the planet. Ecosystems trembled and transformed, empires rose from the ashes, and guilds sprouted like wildflowers in a storm. Ancient clans, long thought lost to time, revived and thrived amid the chaos. In this new world, power reigns supreme, the only currency accepted in the brutal economy of survival. In Terra, weakness is a death sentence — to be trodden upon by the strong, where only the mightiest can carve out their destiny. --- **************************** Monthly Goals. -400 golden tickets = 1 bonus chapter -600 golden tickets = 2 bonus chapters -1000 golden tickets = 3 bonus chapters.. ___________________

Prince of The Abyss

Living a story, many wish to enter their favourite book... But what if you actually could? That is the reality that Aether Moirai lives in, where readers bound to the Codex system can enter stories and grow stronger by changing their endings. But while awakening for most is a blessing, for the little Prince Aether, it had been a curse more than anything; he had been given this title at the worst moment of his life, trapped inside an enemy Kingdom that wanted his head, and to make it worse, his powers were those of a God, which, while it might seem like a good thing, had been the opposite. Between having to care about his own mental health and get stronger so his body doesn't get taken over, and trying to find himself, he also has to worry about the past he has no idea about, since it seems he's more connected to the world than he had thought. He has to decide if he wants to step into the role the world has given him, as the Vessel of one of the five gods of the world, or become a person of his own without losing himself. Quite a harsh world for one that seems like a fairy tale on paper... But what if those stories also have something to say about people entering them... that would make it way worse, wouldn’t it... P/S POTA is a novel with a lot of deaths; a lot of characters die. It’s a very dark novel for a reason, with no fear of gruesome and ugly scenes, but also one with a very complicated system and a lot of niche mechanics, and above all, the protagonist himself changes a lot through the story, and every part of his change is going to be shown, even the bad times. When it comes to uploads, there are two new chapters daily.

Transmigrated into Werewolf Novel: I'm a Villainess, Not Your FL!

Note: This is not your typical werewolf story. It's an absurd comedy. Leave your expectations for angst, drama, and seriousness at the door~ Azura is a connoisseur of clichés. She devours stories of fake daughters, hidden heiresses, and satisfying divorces like a fine wine. But there's one genre she can't stand: werewolf romances. Alphas, fated mates, moon goddesses? It's a cheesy mess she actively avoids. So, of course, that's exactly where fate decides to dump her. After a conveniently 'tragic' accident, Azura wakes up in the body of a villainess—her own namesake, no less—in the very werewolf novel she once scorned. Her knowledge of the plot is embarrassingly sparse, limited to the erotic chapters she’d skimmed for curiosity's sake. Undeterred, she formulates a simple plan: befriend the heroine she’s destined to torment and secure a peaceful ending. The result? She accidentally traumatizes the poor girl even more. To make matters catastrophically worse, she doesn't just tangle with one male lead. She snags all four of them. And after a chaotic kidnapping and a night of... complicated events, she finds herself pregnant with their babies. Now, her grand quest for redemption has devolved into a farce of epic proportions. How is she supposed to be a reformed villainess when she's accidentally stolen the show, terrified the heroine, and is now expecting a litter of pups with the four most powerful Alphas in the territory? Being bad was supposed to be easy. Turns out, trying to be good is a full-time, high-stakes, pregnancy-riddled disaster.
