Unmade

In a vast, lightless void where monstrous shapes drift like silent predators in deep water, a single splash of color appears, a seventeen-year-old boy clad in white, falling endlessly through the darkness. His body is broken, one arm missing, his wounds severe. Whatever did this to him is unknown. Worse still, he remembers nothing, not who he is, not where he came from, not what happened. When he awakens, the void is gone. Instead, he finds himself in a new world, one vibrant, chaotic, and filled with people who wield strange and powerful abilities. Somehow, he possesses such power as well. As he struggles to adapt, learning the rules of this unfamiliar reality, fragments of instinct guide him where memory cannot. Yet one question lingers, haunting every step he takes: Who is he really… and what brought him here? link to the discord: https://discord.gg/3wf3yDGT4y i got art ect of my novel in the discord server incase anyone is interested in seeing it

Esmeria

In a distant realm, a god-king revered by his followers rules with unyielding force, crushing nations that dare oppose him. Yet his ambitions stretch far beyond mortal subjugation—he hunts down other gods, erasing them from existence in his quest to become the sole divine power. As his dominion expands, gods disappear, kingdoms are threatened, and the world continues to change. Across this vast realm, adventurers, warriors, and gods pursue their own ambitions, unaware of how far the god-king's influence will eventually reach. Can even a god, crowned by worship and forged in tyranny, hold on to such power indefinitely? Or will someone rise against him, bringing about a downfall as inevitable as it is unforeseen? In a world where gods can die, only one can remain—but for how long? Cover art by Little-Moon on Scribblehub.

Brothers of Light and darkness: “The Struggle for Balance”

This is not a story about good versus evil. It is a story about what happens when good people stay silent. In a world decaying under greed, corruption, and moral compromise, two brothers are chosen to stand at the center of a celestial war between the god Irah and the demon king Zahar. But divine battles are only a reflection of a deeper truth: Darkness does not win because it is powerful. It wins because people allow it to. Lucian carries both mercy and ruthlessness within him. Hito carries a hope that refuses to be extinguished. Together, they are forced to confront a reality few are willing to face: Light without action is meaningless. Power without integrity is corruption. Hope without courage is illusion. Seven celestial angels defend crumbling nations — yet even heaven cannot save a world that refuses responsibility. Balance is not about harmony. Balance is about choosing to stand up when it would be safer to kneel. When injustice spreads… When corruption feels normal… When silence feels easier… Who are you?

A Million Lifetimes to Say Goodbye

A million deaths. A million worlds. One million years too late. Alex was the Dragonslayer—until his final, catastrophic duel against the Godslayer ended in mutual destruction. Desperate to return home, Alex triggered an incomplete reincarnation formula. Instead of a simple rebirth, his soul was shattered across the multiverse. He died a million times across a million different realities: as a cultivator, a warlord, a beggar, and a beast. With every death, his combat instincts sharpened, his martial reflexes deepened, and his obsession grew. Now, on his millionth rebirth, the formula finally spits him back where it all began—his original home world. There are only two problems: 1. A freak incident as an infant locked away the active memories of his past lives, leaving only instinct, muscle memory, and an unyielding drive for power. 2. One million years have passed since he fell. Starting from the absolute bottom at Tier 0, Alex must take up twin blades and flame once more. He doesn't care about saving the world or playing the hero. He is climbing back to the pinnacle of power to settle an ancient score with the Godslayer—and find the soul of the woman he left behind. What to Expect: Progression: Tier 0 to Tier 6 progression system with earned, tactical growth (Dual Blades & Fire Magic). Protagonist: Reincarnated veteran with dormant instincts; driven, practical, and selfish when necessary. Pacing: Weak-to-Strong arc. No instant god-mode—every tier is hard-won. Themes: Intense rivalries, martial mastery, and a slow-burn epic mystery spanning a million years. Romance / Harem: Slow-burn Single Love Interest. No Harem. Release Schedule: 3 Chapters / Week

Eternal Dreaming Zen

Two years ago, humanity launched a spacecraft to study the mysterious barrier enclosing the Earth and Sun. The mission ended in disaster. The spacecraft struck the barrier and exploded, leaving behind a crack. Something seeped through. It called itself Zen. As Zen spread across the world, humanity awakened strange powers. Some gained abilities beyond imagination. Others gained only enough strength to survive another day. But Zen wasn't the greatest disaster. People began to vanish. Without warning. Without a trace. The phenomenon became known as the Disappearance Effect. It comes in cycles. Each time it returns, it grows stronger. Each cycle leaves fewer survivors behind. Under a starless sky and in a world racing toward its doom, seventeen-year-old Riven Stirenok struggles to survive. Smart, cunning, and reckless enough to attempt things no sane person would ever consider, Riven repeatedly throws himself into impossible situations just to stay alive. Even he doesn't understand his own mind. Or the strange ability awakening within him. As the world grows stranger with every passing day, hidden truths begin to surface about Zen, the barrier, the disappearances, and the fate awaiting humanity. The end is approaching. [I have finished writing and uploading the first volume "The Apocalypse". So you can read it if you are interested since the first volume itself has separate completeness to it. And I will be active on the platform, will make sure to complete this story which will probably span over multiple volumes. Currently taking a break cuz I got tired(yk the studies and all). Don't worry this is going to be my new hobby. I will keep on writing. Just for fun.] (Also this is not Ai generated, I made this myself, wrote it on paper and then typed it down on Google docs. Well I will be honest about one thing, I did use Ai for correcting grammer and stuff. Like after writing draft of a chapter I will upload it some Ai, then it will give me suggestions on sentence level po
