Entropia

Taavi has spent most of his life learning what it means to belong nowhere. Half-Elf and half-Human, he is despised by both races. After years of captivity and abuse, he has learned to survive by keeping his head down and expecting nothing from anyone. Enslaved by General Arkros in the Kingdom of Aterion, he survives by following his master’s every command, knowing that obedience is his only protection from hatred and persecution. But when Taavi falls into a trap, he is thrust into a dangerous situation far beyond his control. With new threats closing in and his fate hanging in the balance, Taavi must find the courage to break free from the path chosen for him and discover a strength he never knew he had.

Stillore: Shard and Canvas

"Yes, of course I'm scared. I don't know what to expect from tomorrow." Lance Klint is eighteen, a caring delivery guy, and a brother searching for a sister who disappeared without a trace. During a failed delivery, he will find himself torn between his old world and the new reality built by horrors beyond comprehension, a forgotten pantheon, and the very madness that consumed the archipelago he once called his home. Lance will understand that nothing is quite what it really is and that his family tragedy was something far greater than what he thought it had been. ------------------------------ Schedule: Currently striving to translate my OWN work (non native eng. speaker). Since the chapters are pretty heavy and deserve thorough translation, this novel will strive to offer its readers at least two chapters per week. Disclaimer: This Novel has a romance subplot (No harem) - Mature themes and graphic depictions - No system or cultivation - Longer chapters than usual.

Where The Colors Dwell

What if all the colors went missing except one. Would the world still seem so magical? In Mud Mire that's their reality. There are no pretty skies, wholesome dandelions or bloody cherries. There's only mire, no rainbows, no butterflies, just mire. It may come in different shades like how pennies age with time, but that doesn’t change the fact it all leads to one pigment, tinge, or even tint of mud.
