tragedy

In a world where true strength is measured not by muscle or age, but by the mysterious energy known as Paraka, one boy is born with a rare power that could reshape the fate of the world. Orphaned young, Kazuki trains under the wise master Tatsu, learning patience, focus, and the secrets of Paraka. At the Martial Arts Academy, he forms bonds with friends, faces deadly challenges, and uncovers the hidden power of the legendary crystals. The world is cruel, the stakes are high, and a looming catastrophe threatens everything. Will Kazuki rise to become the hero the world desperately needs—or fall before reaching his destiny?

Vaelor, when he was barely born, was already considered an abomination. He was born cursed. Feared by all those who looked into his eyes; and as if that weren’t enough, he was born without the ability to use magic. He was set aside, rejected, and booed by everyone… except for one young woman who took him in her arms and supported him as he grew. As the years passed, Vaelor discovers a disturbing truth: the beasts do not fear him. Taking advantage of this, he decides to tame every beast he encounters and thus build his army to put an end to all those who see him as an enemy.

"Immortality? That can be lonely. And in the end, everyone will die. It doesn’t matter what you do to escape it—sooner or later, all shall taste death. It is already written; it’s only a matter of when and how. But glory… glory is the answer. Glory will outlive flesh and bones. Glory is what we should strive for, not immortality." ~~~~ Robin Burton was a young man who grew up with everything anyone could ever hope for: immense talent in cultivation, a sharp mind, and a wealthy family that would stop at nothing to protect and nurture him. He had everything—except the will to make use of it. "Why should I walk the same path as my ancestors? Why must I seek strength just to defeat one rival or compete with another? That is not what I was born for!" --- “…Heh\~” Robin let out a long sigh. “Pursuing power was never my goal. I left my family and secluded myself to escape those pointless struggles for authority. I wanted to explore the universe, and to explore myself first… yet time and again, I was dragged into devastating wars. I wanted to benefit people with my knowledge and immortalize my name, yet worlds fell and hundreds of billions died because of me. Ironic, hah?”

I spent my whole life trying to make everyone happy. My stepmother, my stepsister, even the friend I thought I could trust. I smiled, I bowed, I gave up pieces of myself just to be accepted. But in the end, they destroyed me. My stepmother and stepsister stole my father’s fortune and killed my mother. My so-called friend betrayed me with the man I loved. And when I thought I had nothing left to lose… they took my life too. I thought that was the end. Until I opened my eyes and found myself back in my younger body. This time, I’m not the same girl who lived to please everyone. Every danger I face awakens something inside me mind reading, telekinesis, lightning, even the power to bend fate itself. I was reborn with a second chance. And this time, I’ll live for myself.

These Heroes competed with their feats to reach and become inscribed in the Annals of History, To be written in the Tor'Izzackur.

Those who defied Providence itself. They are the GodFell. The Fallen and Forgotten. Champions who killed their own Gods by severity connection of the Gods to the Faith of the world. These are their stories. — Introduction, pp1, Rukcazzi'Rot.

In the continent of Valoria, where nations rule through injustice and laws are written to serve the elite alone, a new generation is born that doesn’t recognize the legitimacy of thrones. They are just a rebels who chose to break the system from its roots. Akio is a reckless boy who refuses obedience and believes that power is taken, not given. His goal is to overthrow the current rule and create a new shogun with his own hands, even if it means becoming the enemy of the entire world. Around him gathers a group of outcast youths, each stripped of something by the government: freedom, family, identity, or the right to choose. What brought them together was a shared hatred for the system that crushed them. Even so, this scattered anger slowly turns into an organized movement that threatens the balance of the entire continent.

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.

When ten percent of humanity awakens supernatural powers, the world ends in a single day. Governments fall, cities burn, and the strong become gods while the weak are trampled. Hope survives—but only after losing everything that ever gave his life meaning. Three months into the apocalypse, he is chosen by the Vessel System and forced into seven brutal trials designed not to save the world, but to test whether he is worthy of defying the gods themselves. Surrounded by awakened monsters, fractured factions, and a fate soaked in blood, Hope fights not for justice or heroism—but for the right to choose how the world ends.

In a reality governed by gods, fate, and immutable laws, there exists one being who should never have been allowed to live. Axiomel was never sanctioned by the age he was born into. Neither chosen nor created, he slipped into existence through a flaw in reality itself. Adopted by a mortal woman, he grows up weak, powerless, and unseen—until the indifference of the gods shatters the only life he has ever known. When Zeus, King of Gods, attempts to erase him from the timeline, the universe hesitates. Surviving an execution that should have ended him completely, Axiomel becomes an anomaly that gods cannot explain and fate cannot bind. Watched by Yesh, hunted by Olympus, and tied unknowingly to the slumbering chaos of Azathoth, he begins a journey across mythologies, timelines, and realities. As eldritch powers seep into creation and pantheons fracture, Axiomel walks a path no being has ever taken—mastering concepts, defying absolutes, and forging an existence beyond predetermination. In a multiverse where even gods are bound by law, he is the exception. And reality does not know how to finish writing him.

Dana Snide lives between two worlds: the ordinary life she was born into, and the Labyrinth that calls to her every night, a place where her strange, growing power feels almost normal.

The deeper she searches for answers, the more she realises the truth may cost her more than she’s ready to lose. Hunted, uncertain who to trust, and afraid of what she might become, Dana must uncover the truth about herself… before the truth finds her first.
