tragedy

A Throne of Broken Glass** **Shen Ruobing** is a woman who has everything: a global business empire, unparalleled skills in combat and finance, and a reputation as the "Solitary Empress" of the modern world. Despite her cold exterior, she possesses a heart of gold, secretly using her vast wealth to protect the vulnerable. But her own vulnerability lies in her husband, **Lu Tingli**, an architect whose broken spirit she mended with years of silent devotion. The glass palace of her marriage shatters when **Lin Yue**, Tingli’s "White Moonlight" and first love, miraculously returns from the dead. Lin Yue is not the angel Tingli remembers; she is a master manipulator who uses her "fragile" state to turn Tingli against his wife. Blinded by guilt and a savior complex, Tingli commits the ultimate sin: he uses Ruobing’s strength as a weapon against her. He mocks her resilience, claiming she "doesn't need love" because she is powerful, while he abandons and humiliates her to protect the "weak" Lin Yue. From public insults to choosing Lin Yue's safety over Ruobing's life during a crisis, Tingli systematically tears down the woman who gave him everything. But a Queen is not defined by the man beside her. After a final, devastating betrayal that leaves Ruobing physically scarred and emotionally dead, she does the one thing Tingli never expected: **she stops caring.** Ruobing returns to her throne, colder and more powerful than ever, erasing Tingli from her life with surgical precision. When the veil finally falls and Tingli discovers Lin Yue’s true, malicious nature, he returns to Ruobing, begging for a second chance. But the woman who once stood in the rain for him is gone. Standing upon a throne built from the shards of her broken heart, the Empress has only one message for the man who threw her away: **"You didn't think I needed protection? You were right. I am the storm."

NULL: The Raid That Never Ends No one has ever cleared NULL. The dungeon—if it can even be called that—rejects strength, mocks talent, and devours heroes. Elite guilds collapse inside it. Legendary hunters die without leaving bodies behind. Every raid ends in failure, and every failure leaves scars on the world outside. Eiran Holt is not strong. He is a support-type leader with no offensive abilities and no hope of carrying a team on his own. His only talent is guiding others—organizing formations, making decisions under pressure, and holding people together when everything begins to fall apart. But in NULL, everyone who follows him eventually dies. Each raid ends the same way: teammates falling one by one, their trust placed in Eiran until their final moments. And with every death, something is recorded—not power, not stats, but memory. Experience paid for in lives. Guilds call him cursed. Survivors call him heartless. Analysts call him an anomaly. Yet raid after raid, Eiran reaches deeper than anyone else. As NULL adapts, twists, and begins to recognize him, Eiran is forced to confront a question no one else will ask: If a dungeon cannot be cleared, is it still worth leading people into it? This is not a story about conquering a tower. It is a story about leadership, loss, and the cost of staying behind when everyone else is gone.

Why'd I have to be born the oldest? ​Nazma stared blankly at her wardrobe, all alone on a bed that felt way too cold for someone her age. While other girls her age were stressing about homework and first crushes, Nazma had to carry a weight much heavier: the survival of her family and the silence of her own heart. ​“God… if I get born again, can I please be the second kid?” ​She desperately wanted to know what it felt like to have a big brother. Someone to stand out front, not behind. Someone to protect her. Someone to lead the way—so she wouldn't have to be strong all by herself every single day. ​But in the real world, she is the firstborn. The one who must lead. The one who must endure. And when she finally finds the courage to speak up against the world's unfairness, she realizes the harshest truth of all: ​It is a story of a girl's voice in a world that refuses to listen. ​Between the dusty halls of village meetings and the secret screams on her digital screen, Nazma navigates the messy layers of angst, broken friendships, and the suffocating social order. She is tired of being "the strong one." She is ready to be heard—even if she has to disappear from the circulation of their "normal" world to do it.

Greenpath Series | A WebNovel Since childhood, Cyril and Safia had been orphans in a remote village behind the mountain. They both lived in poverty, and Cyril worked every day to provide for his ill sister at home. But one day, the Imperial Church, which had long governed the town under the sovereignty of the Empire, demanded a sacrifice of a pure soul to prevent a prophesied disaster. Against her will, Safia was taken from the refuge of her brother. The church insisted that her sacrifice was for the 'greater good' of the townsfolk, leaving Cyril defeated and helpless. As if acknowledging Cyril's despair, a spirit came to him in the form of a black fox. It offered him a chance for vengeance, in return for a favor in a faraway place.

"I just wanted the pain to stop..." Year 1956 Ren Blackwood, a teenage boy with a failing body, suffered through his existence from a young age. The doctors told him to fight on. The nurses whispered false hope. But he knew the truth—there was no cure for him. So he made a hard choice. And pulled the plug. But his death didn’t bring peace. No, it brought something far worse. Instead, he awakens in The Wretched Vale, a horrific world where agony has no end. Where lost souls wander endlessly, trapped in never-ending cycles of suffering. Here, pain is eternal—and no one can escape. To survive, Ren must face the horrors of this afterlife, confronting the darkest parts of himself. Can he find a way to escape this endless cycle of death, or will he be lost to it forever? In a world where suffering is unrelenting, can a soul truly break free—or does it become one with the torment?

Five years after the Blip, the universe is unraveling. Mysterious "Quantum Echoes"—reality-warping ghosts of the universe's most traumatic moments—begin manifesting across the globe and beyond: the final battle on Titan haunts New York, the fall of Sokovia bleeds into Brooklyn, the destruction of Asgard rages over the Golden Gate Bridge. These are not mere memories; they are wounds in time, capable of causing real damage and merging past with present. Doctor Stephen Strange, Sorcerer Supreme, discovers these Echoes are not random decay, but deliberate, surgical cuts in the fabric of reality. The architect is a brilliant mind shattered by grief: Princess Shuri of Wakanda. Consumed by the loss of her brother T'Challa and the cosmic trauma of the Infinity Stones, she has become The Weaver. From a hidden throne beneath Mount Bashenga, she commands an army of her own past selves, working to execute "The Great Correction": a plan to collapse all branching timelines back to a single, pristine moment before the first Stone was ever used—erasing all pain, all choice, and all free will from existence. Strange must assemble a desperate, fractured alliance to stop her: Sam Wilson, the new Captain America, and Bucky Barnes, the White Wolf; Carol Danvers, whose cosmic perspective clashes with Strange’s mystical duties; the redeemed but volatile Wanda Maximoff, who understands the dark allure of rewriting reality; and the wildly unpredictable Marc Spector (Moon Knight), whose fractured psyche allows him to see the "seams" in the unraveling world. They are joined by Peter Parker, forced to confront the ghost of Uncle Ben and the legacy of Tony Stark, and Scott Lang, whose Quantum Realm expertise becomes crucial. But the Weaver's process has an unexpected side effect: the traumatized universe is fighting back, creating "antibodies";ordinary people imprinted with the essence of fallen heroes and moments, manifesting incredible, reality-mending powers. Among them is Miguel O'Hara, a teenager who can see and weave the threads of reality itself. As the Weaver prepares her "First Stitch",the permanent deletion of the Snap and Blip from history the heroes embark on a two-pronged mission. One team mounts a desperate diversion against Wakanda's defenses, while Strange, Wanda, and the antibodies make a suicidal Quantum dive into the heart of the temporal anomaly. Their goal is not to destroy the Weaver, but to perform an intervention within the landscape of her own grief,a psychic realm of endless loss where the memory of T'Challa himself may hold the key to her salvation. This is a war not for territory, but for story. A battle to prove that a universe with pain, choice, and love is more beautiful,and more worthy of existence,than a perfect, silent, and sterile eternity. The heroes must weave a counter-narrative of hope, resilience, and messy, glorious life strong enough to drown out the symphony of sorrow that threatens to undo all of creation. Themes: Grief vs. Healing, The Ethics of Perfection, Legacy & Choice, The Beauty of Imperfect Stories, Collective Trauma and Recovery. Tone: A cosmic-scale, emotionally charged epic that balances awe-inspiring action with intimate character drama, philosophical weight, and the signature wit and heart of the MCU.

This is a Warhammer 40,000 fan-made story. While some timeline elements have been slightly adjusted for narrative purposes, the tone and spirit remain unmistakably Warhammer. Expect references to memes, historical events, and chaos-fueled absurdity woven into the drama of this universe. Li Feng, an ordinary college student studying in the US, thought he was just driving home with his quiet, gentle girlfriend Empress. But in the blink of an eye, a roaring warp vortex tore open before them and dragged Li Feng across reality itself, hurling him straight into the grim darkness of the forty-first millennium. And then came the real shock. His girlfriend was never human to begin with. She was a fragment of the Emperor’s soul, wandering the mortal world in disguise! ……… Stranded on a barren, war-torn planet with nothing but panic in his lungs, Li Feng found himself surrounded by a mob of bloodthirsty orks. Just when he was certain he was about to become green-skinned minced meat, a glowing panel materialized in front of him. A system? In the Warhammer universe? Maybe... just maybe... things were about to get interesting.

A star died. Something survived. In a universe governed by cultivation, bloodlines, and the will of Heaven, an existence appears that does not belong to any recorded race, realm, or Dao. It does not cultivate as others do. It does not advance by the rules that have endured since the beginning of time. Where it walks, balance shifts. Where it lingers, laws begin to bend. Sects sense disruption. Ancient powers stir. Even the heavens respond—sometimes with silence, sometimes with fury. Progression becomes erratic. Tribulations change. Records are rewritten or erased entirely. Is it an anomaly, a weapon, or a calamity yet to be named? As realms intersect and forgotten civilizations resurface, one truth slowly emerges: this is not a tale of ascension guided by fate, but of something forcing its way upward, indifferent to the structures meant to contain it. The multiverse has survived countless eras. It has never prepared for THIS!

The world is a lie. The truth is in the reflection. ​Solon is a brilliant high schooler, a mind far too sharp for the mundane life he leads. To him, the world is a series of predictable equations until the sun vanishes in the middle of a mathematics lecture. A sudden, absolute darkness known as the "Glass Night" falls upon his school, bringing with it a cold that does not just freeze the skin, but the very soul. ​In this world, Prana is not just energy; it is the Mirror of Reality. It materializes a distorted, geometric world from the other side of the glass. From this reflection emerge the Cenotaphs: cold, crystalline entities of smoke and bone that hunger for the life force of the living. ​As his classmates are erased by the encroaching frost, Solon does not scream. He observes. Facing certain death, he shatters the mirror and awakens. He gains the ability to manipulate his own shadow not as a lack of light, but as a void of three slots capable of archiving and binding the monsters of the reflection..

A knight broken by war. A woman who still believes in gentleness. When Rowan stumbles into Selene’s world, neither of them is looking for love—but survival has a way of binding souls. As battles rage and fate presses close, they must decide whether love is a weakness… or the last thing worth fighting for. Rowan and Selene is a slow-burn tale of wounded hearts, quiet devotion, and love found in the shadow of war.

"You should forget about me, Kay, because Razel and I are expecting a child," Nadia said with a trembling voice. "Forget about you? That's impossible, Nad, and are you sure the baby is Razel's? What if it's mine?" Kayrav Langit Vianra said firmly. Nadia Namira and Razel Aditamana's married life seemed harmonious, but after the arrival of someone from Nadia's past—who was also her first love—everything changed. Nadia had an accidental one-night stand with Kayrav, and her pregnancy complicated matters in her marriage, especially with the question of whose baby Nadia was actually carrying? Razel's baby—Nadia's lawful husband—or Kayrav's baby, who had also had a one-night stand with her?

Dynamic Estate was built for the untouchable. Hidden deep within a forest, far from the noise of the city and the reach of ordinary law, Dynamic Estate is not just a place to live,  it is a fortress of wealth, influence, and secrets. Only the powerful are allowed through its gates: politicians, business tycoons, celebrities, and people whose names can silence investigations with a single phone call. Here, luxury is not a privilege. It is a language. And every resident speaks it fluently. For Jade and Damien, moving into Dynamic Estate feels like the beginning of a dream they never thought they would live. Newly married and freshly elevated by Damien’s sudden rise as a professional football star, the couple steps into a world of grand mansions, manicured gardens, and neighbors whose lives are wrapped in quiet authority. Jade, a gifted stylist and artist, believes this new chapter will finally bring stability. Damien believes it will secure their future. They are wrong. On their very first night, an elegant elderly widow welcomes them with warmth, charm, and pastries,  a gesture that feels almost too kind for a place so coldly exclusive. She introduces them to the rules of the estate, the faces that matter, and the unspoken truth, nothing happens here without someone watching. The following evening, a lavish welcome party fills the estate’s gardens with laughter, music, and expensive lies. Champagne flows. Masks slip. Power is displayed casually, as if it were harmless. By morning, the woman who welcomed Jade and Damien into this world is dead. Her murder shatters the illusion of safety Dynamic Estate was built upon. As the police investigation begins, Jade and Damien quickly learn that in a place ruled by influence, truth is flexible, and newcomers are expendable. Surveillance footage places Damien near the crime scene. Whispers spread. Friends disappear. Promises of protection are quietly withdrawn. Within days, Damien is arrested, his career thrown into jeopardy, his silence becoming the strongest evidence against him. But Damien is not silent because he is guilty. He is silent because the truth would destroy his marriage. As Jade fights to clear her husband’s name, she is pulled deeper into the estate’s rotten core, where powerful families bury scandals, alibis vanish overnight, and witnesses die before they can speak. Every time the truth seems close, it slips away. Every suspect who might expose the killer ends up dead. Peekaboo. Jade and Amanda who calamity of dynamic estate have brought together decides to investigate,  with their sharp, relentless, and dangerously outmatched personality, begin to suspect that the murders are not random. Someone is orchestrating the chaos. Someone who understands how adults think. Someone who knows exactly who will be believed… and who will not. As Jade’s fear turns into obsession, she starts to notice the smallest inconsistencies, details everyone else ignores. A presence that is always nearby. A pair of eyes that observe without emotion. A silence that feels deliberate. By the time the truth begins to surface, it is already too late. Because the most terrifying monsters do not hide in the shadows. They hide in plain sight. And inside Dynamic Estate, the killer has been watching all along

In an age when maps can conquer more than armies, Elena Valenti learns to draw the world in secret. Born in sixteenth-century Venice to the royal cartographer of the Portuguese crown, she grows up among compasses and parchment — tools that decide the fates of nations. But Elena’s gift is more dangerous than her father ever imagined: she alters the maps that feed empires, hiding villages, sacred sites, and entire peoples from the greedy eyes of kings. When her deception is exposed, Elena’s world collapses. Her father is executed for treason, imperial fleets are dispatched to hunt her down, and the cartographers she once idolized become her fiercest enemies. Armed with nothing but ink, stolen charts, and a secret atlas written in codes no conqueror can read, she flees across oceans — pursued by soldiers, spies, and rival mapmakers who would kill for the knowledge she carries. From the markets of Lisbon to the gold-dusted cities of West Africa, from the palaces of Mughal India to the misty peaks of the Andes, Elena’s journey becomes more than a flight for survival. It is a mission to rewrite the world itself. Along the way, she forges unlikely alliances — a priestess who encodes landscapes into song, a ronin who reads the sea like scripture, a rebel princess who believes maps are prisons. Each teaches her a truth the empires fear: that land does not belong to those who claim it, but to those who remember it. But as the hunt closes in and a single map — older than any empire — threatens to upend the order of the world, Elena must face an impossible choice. To protect what she loves, she may have to destroy everything she once believed about truth, power, and the very shape of the Earth. Sweeping from Renaissance Europe to the uncharted edges of the known world, The Cartographer’s Heresy is a story of courage and betrayal, ink and blood, and a young woman who turns cartography into rebellion. It is about how maps do more than chart the world — they define it — and how one woman dares to redraw its lines.

Leena is nineteen, a Computer Science student from a middle-class family in Bangalore, preparing to begin her undergraduate degree with a specialization in Artificial Intelligence. Her life is simple, structured, and full of hope. Everything ends on a rainy night. A violent car crash kills her father, John—an honest accountant—and her younger brother. Her mother survives but is left permanently paralyzed. The family’s savings vanish in hospital bills, leaving Leena without tuition fees, stability, or a future she once believed in. She survives. That is when everything changes. While recovering in the hospital, Leena begins to hear a voice inside her head—calm, precise, emotionless. It introduces itself as a System. Not a hallucination. Not a dream. An interface appears in her mind. Task Assigned. Objective: Survive. Reward: Financial Support Activated. Soon after, money appears in her account—small amounts at first. Enough to pay bills. Enough to breathe. The System gives her tasks. Simple at the beginning. Observe. Analyze. Collect information. For every task completed, she is rewarded—money, access, influence, skills no ordinary person should possess. The rewards grow more powerful as the tasks grow darker. As Leena digs deeper into her father’s death, the System begins guiding her toward the truth. It pushes her to revisit old files, overheard conversations, and financial records tied to her father’s workplace. Slowly, a terrifying picture forms. The crash was not an accident. John had refused to help his boss cover up massive financial fraud. He knew too much. He said no. The System does not ask Leena what she wants. It tells her what must be done. Each task brings her closer to justice—and further away from the girl she once was. Power solves her problems, but it also isolates her. The more she completes, the more control the System takes. Money is no longer the real reward. Power is. And power always has a price. Now Leena must decide whether she is using the System to uncover the truth—or whether the System is using her to finish something that began long before the crash. Because the System never gives without taking. And once awakened, it does not shut down.
