Heart of Cherry Blossoms

AD_Ahad
Beneath the canopy of cherry blossoms, where the world feels suspended in time, Akira and Hana have always found solace in each other. From childhood friends to something deeper, their bond has grown as naturally as the petals that drift from the ancient tree overlooking their town. For Akira, every moment with Hana is a step closer to his dream—painting their shared future with colors of love and endless possibilities. But as the vibrant hues of spring begin to fade, Akira notices a distance in Hana's once-luminous eyes, a sadness she can no longer hide. Their once care-free days of laughter and shared dreams have begun to unravel into quiet moments filled with unsaid words. Akira feels it in his chest—a weight he doesn’t understand but can’t shake. He’s ready to tell her how he feels, to offer her a future as beautiful and enduring as their love for each other, but something is holding Hana back. As they sit together under the cherry blossom tree, Akira feels the fragile pulse of time slipping away from them. The petals that once symbolized renewal now seem to represent something more fleeting—a love caught in the delicate space between hope and despair. While Akira’s heart beats with the anticipation of the life they could share, Hana remains haunted by a secret she can’t bear to tell him. "Heart of Cherry Blossoms" is a touching tale of two souls intertwined by fate and bound by love, yet confronted with the painful truth of life’s impermanence. As Akira and Hana navigate the fine line between holding on and letting go, they must come to terms with the reality that even the most beautiful moments, like the bloom of the cherry blossoms, are fleeting. In this deeply emotional story, love is not just about finding someone to share a future with—it’s about cherishing the moments that may soon be lost forever.

Ashen Requiem

In the year 2030, Earth underwent a transformation as sudden as it was cataclysmic. Mysterious meteorites of unknown origin appeared in the solar system, evading all detection systems, as if they had materialized from nothingness itself. Fifteen of them—black and white—crashed into our planet, while an indeterminate number were lost in the vastness of space. At that time, humanity was already steeped in sin, moral decay, and pride. For some, the arrival of the meteorites was seen as a divine judgment—a brutal purification inflicted upon a world on the brink of perdition. These black and white meteorites carried within them supernatural energy, yet of diametrically opposed nature. The black ones, true catalysts of destruction, poisoned the environment and gave birth to chaos, madness, and mutation. The white ones, on the other hand, seemed to offer a semblance of blessing, though their influence remained ambiguous at times. Living beings exposed to these energies—be they human or animal—were forever changed. Many perished; others were transformed into monstrous entities or granted supernatural powers. But this so-called "gift" was in truth a veiled curse—those marked by corruption became outcasts, hated and hunted. The world, fractured, witnessed the collapse of several nations. Entire regions were quarantined and forgotten, while the so-called “Bastions of Light” became the final refuge of what remained of civilized humanity. The fall of the world dismantled all known structures. Ancient legends came to life, mythological creatures emerged—some lurking in the darkest corners of the globe, others awakened by the disruptions. Dimensional portals, rare but real, opened under the influence of the black meteorites, allowing demonic entities from elsewhere—known as "Cauchemar"—to infiltrate the human world. Humanity, overwhelmed, slowly descended into madness. And yet… amidst the chaos, figures rose. Heroes emerged from religious, scientific, military, and anarchist factions. Among them, one name stood out: Klein—a mysterious man newly elected Pope of a reborn organization known as "The New Church". He brought light and order where all seemed lost. Officially, it was he and his companions who saved the world from the first wave of collapse. But in the shadows of History, another truth remained. Jin, a rebel, a symbol of resistance, had stood against the Church and the World Government, which had formed in the aftermath of the catastrophe. Accused of crimes he did not commit, he was captured, tried, and sentenced to death. His execution was to take place in Almeris, the spiritual capital of the new world. On that day, war erupted. Jin's supporters launched a desperate attack to rescue him, unleashing a battle so devastating that it reduced 20% of the planet to ruins. Jin perished that day, along with most of his companions. But before falling, he made a solemn vow: to return. To take revenge. To honor the promise made to those who still believed in him. Since then, a rumor persists—Jin will return, and with him, the world will once again be transformed.
