Immortal Healer: Immortal Stonekeeper Prequel (2025)

Not many people can claim to have served in eight wars, and even fewer can claim to have conquered death itself. Duncan Ward has done both.

But when he is abruptly invited to the funeral of an old war comrade he once saved, Duncan finds himself dragged back into the affairs of men… and the supernatural. Joining hands with the late veteran’s daughter, they race against time to uncover a plot that could drastically change the course of history.

Keepers Of The Occult (NaNoWriMo 2024)

If mythical creatures only exist in folklore, are they truly fictional? Or just kept under very tight wraps? Hazel Adams is a timid high school student who spends all her time hiding from people and reading about Japanese urban legends. Those tales are far more interesting than her boring life, after all. But monsters don't just live in stories. Not only are these creatures very real, but a secret society of wizards also monitors and polices supernatural activity all around the world. To make matters worse, they just accidentally let four Japanese monsters- also known as Yokai- loose in Hazel's city. Now, Hazel must work alongside these wizards to track them down before the unleashed Yokai threaten the balance between the natural and supernatural worlds.

Truth Beyond the Veil

Three close friends find their lives turned upside down after awakening from a strange event, and they receive powers they can’t explain. With these newfound abilities, they begin exploring the world, visiting places they never thought they would see. But the more they venture, the more they realize: the world isn’t what it seems. As they encounter ancient ruins, strange creatures, and forgotten remnants of a world long past, one truth becomes clear—they were never meant to stay on Earth. Driven by a need to uncover the origin of their powers and a way back to their home, they stumble upon secrets far greater than anything they could have imagined. This is a story of friendship, awakening, and a journey that spans far more than just one world. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, I’m DarkCosmos, a first-time author writing for the love of the craft.

Time Lock

In a technologically advanced future where elite academies compete for prestige, eleven exceptional students receive a mysterious invitation to participate in The Chrysalis Initiative, a secretive tournament reputed to challenge the world’s most brilliant minds. Within an advanced simulation, the participants are assigned concealed roles as Hunters or Survivors. With no certainty of who stands on which side—and with roles capable of shifting between rounds—alliances begin to form even as doubt quietly takes root. As the tournament progresses, every interaction becomes a test of perception and every decision a calculated risk. Trust begins to erode, and the students find themselves questioning not only those around them, but their own judgment, instincts, and sense of self. In a system built upon deception and survival, the question is no longer who will win, but how far someone can be pushed before losing the very humanity they are trying to protect.

Reborn in the Mist

Jason knew how he was going to die next. He's been Yagura for a month now and there's a Tailed-Beast living inside him, he knew how he was going to die next. Nobody wants to die, not even those that have done it before. Navigating the world as Yagura Karatachi, Elite Jounin of Kirigakure and Jinchuriki of the Three Tailed Beast would be dangerous enough on its own but as a Kage-candidate for Fourth Mizukage, he's far too attractive for the likes of Obito and Madara to ignore. The true Yagura is destined for a near decade under Obito's genjutsu and his village the piggybank of the Akatsuki's plans. He can't let that happen and not just because he's caught up in it now. *** Allo, just wanna say this fanfic is my second go at envisioning a character in the position of supreme power; Kage. As Kages don't regularly do missions and violence often comes to them instead, there will be fewer fight scenes until Yagura/Jason begin to face the big threat to the Shinobi world. As such I'll mostly be exploring what *right* decisions Kirigakure could have taken and the challenges to those decisions post 3rd shinobi war, as well as trying to pre-empt Obito's Akatsuki with the current Kages; Onoki, Ay, Rasa, and Hiruzen/Minato. As an aspect of the fic, it will be very Yagura/Kiri-centric with other villages and characters having interlude chapters in between. I am taking this route because, well, it's interesting and I want to discover more of what Kirigakure and its Legendary Swordsmen could have been. Anyway, hope you enjoy.

Reilfear

He had never believed in fantasy. All tales of heroism and righteousness, destiny, they always felt like lies. Where force rules all, law is but the mirage. After being abused, isolated, and plagued by misfortunes in his youth, he knew only one truth: the powerful always got whatever they wanted. Then one calm New Year's day, reality began to fall apart. Individuals vanish. Cities collapse. The sky shatters like a pane of glass. And an inexplicable, luminescent blue phrase lights up: "This world has been written." The entire world began to be systematically erased, but as for him, he was unaffected, like an overlooked error the world failed to delete. Standing amidst this collapsing reality, he confronts the horrifying question: "What if the world has never truly existed? And, was I not meant to be in it in the first place?"

The Protagonist’s Sister Is Actually The Strongest

Have you ever read a novel with such a terrible ending that you wished you could rewrite the story and give the characters you loved the happy ending they truly deserved? I was just another failed author, writing stories that nobody read and that never sold. Seeking to improve my craft, I picked up the most popular novel of the time, “Solo Player”, hoping to learn what made it so successful. Yet as I read, frustration grew inside me. The story’s development was promising, but its ending was truly awful. Then, quite bitterly, the moment I finished the book, I found myself transmigrated into its world. Did I become the protagonist? A villain? Or perhaps even an extra? No. It was far worse than I could have imagined. I had become the most worthless character in the entire novel, someone nobody ever cared about. A character readers saw only as fuel for the protagonist’s growth, his greatest burden, and the person every reader hated. “I’m the protagonist’s sister…” However, with my complete knowledge of the novel’s events, my worthlessness was about to change. I had decided not only to become the strongest but also to rewrite the story’s terrible ending. “I won’t let you go inside a dungeon. It’s too dangerous.” …As long as I could get this incredibly corny and overprotective brother out of my way. And for some reason, the Constellations would not stop bothering me. [The Cosmic Throne {Butterfly That Flies Across The Universe} seems interested in your tenacity!] [She has sponsored 1,000,000 Plot Points and the [Demon of Calamity Transformation Technique (SS)] Skill!] [The Cosmic Throne {Monkey that Dances in Chaos} finds your chaotic nature amusing!] [He has thrown the [Umbral Chaos Stone Necklace (S Rank)] at you!] [Not enough? He launched the [Immortal Heaven Peach (SSS Rank)] right at your face!] There was clearly something wrong with the Constellations this time. [The Cosmic Throne {Jester Filled With Lies} is happy that you’re bringing despair to your victims!] [He has gifted you the [Jester’s Last Laugh (S Rank Privilege)] and the [Master of Manipulation (SS)] Skill!] [The Cosmic Throne {Maiden that Watches Over Nature} seems happy you’re growing stronger.] [She has gracefully sponsored you with 2,000,000 Plot Points and fully healed all your wounds!] [She has also begun to wonder if you could plant some trees for her and gifted you the [Divine World Tree Seedling (SSS Rank)]!] [The Cosmic Throne {Warrior That Seeks Calamity} is satisfied with your battle performance but demands more!] [He has sponsored you with 500,000 Plot Points and the [Beheading Sword of Destruction (SSS Rank)]!] They simply could not stop showering me with gifts, as if I were some famous streamer performing for their entertainment. “I am grateful, but please… just leave me alone already…”
