House of the Celestials: The Eclipsed Vault

Half a half-century after the events of the Crown of Stars, Terra stands transformed. On Terra, the shattering of the Grey— the mystical veil that once hid magic from mundane eyes—has fused two realities into one. Cities now share their skylines with floating citadels, arcane ley‑lines hum beneath once‑quiet streets, and ordinary Terrans awaken to powers they never dreamed possible. In the vacuum left by the fallen regimes, the mage‑conclave Octagram and the chivalric order Golden Dawn broker a fragile new world order alongside the rulers of the former Hidden World. Amid the upheaval, Samantha Sinclair—reborn as Asha’Yee, Keeper of the Sacred Flame—guides the newly awakened through their first sparks of power. Together with Emily Legens and her comrades she turns her focus to a deeper enigma: the vanishing of the legendary AurenIdril Empire, whose secrets may hold the key to stabilizing (or toppling) the newborn age. Every clue draws them closer to the mythic Eclipsed Vault, a place whispered to house the empire’s final legacy—and the reason the gods themselves fear Terra’s rise. Far from home, Leonard Haravok—now a full demigod—has returned to the Divine Federation and vanished from public sight. Rumors hint at celestial trials, forbidden bargains, and a destiny that could either save Terra or condemn it. As cosmic forces converge on the planet, Leon and Sam’s intertwined fates edge toward an inevitable collision—one that will test old loyalties, spark new alliances, and decide whether the light of the new era will blaze or be snuffed out before it can truly dawn. In a world where the veil is gone and the gods are watching, the greatest secrets lie in the shadows of the Eclipsed Vault—and unlocking them may cost more than anyone is willing to pay.

Reborn with a Necromancer System

--WSA 2025 ENTRY-- Kai Tensen’s life ends in a freak accident, only for him to wake up as a newborn in a completely different world filled with magic, danger, and a “System” providing him with information and secrets of the world. But his second chance at life takes a deadly turn when he discovers the truth: he’s the first necromancer in over 500 years, and the world will do anything to see him destroyed. Hunted by the fanatical Inquisition, Kai must outwit bounty hunters, corrupt mages, and even gods themselves to survive. As Kai’s strength grows, so does the danger. Each step into his newfound powers tests his humanity, forcing him to confront questions of loyalty, betrayal, and the cost of his ambition. But with whispers of a divine conspiracy and ancient relics that could shatter the gods’ control, Kai realizes his fight isn’t just for survival. It’s for revolution. In a world that brands him a monster, Kai vows to outlive his supressors. If they want a villain, he’ll give them one. The gods called him a curse and the church called him evil, but he’ll prove he’s their reckoning. Death is only the beginning. Author's Note: As you may know, I'm also the author of Fractured Horizon, a slightly futuristic fantasy/sci-fi novel about mutated human monsters and psychics that battle them. I also wrote My Undeath, a reincarnation novel set in a fantasy world. It wasn't my best work, but I loved writing the story. I put a lot more time and effort into Reborn with a Necromancer System, and ironed out the details for a while, plotting approximately 500 chapters for all of you. If you liked either of my other two novels, this novel has a lot more planned for it than the other two. ----------------------------------------------------- Schedule: 10-20 chapters per week Chapter Length 1,000-2,000 words ----------------------------------------------------- Disclaimers: 1. This world is not like Earth. Applying common sense to some basic principles is pointless. 2. There are not any planned harems, but perhaps multiple love interests. 3. Although the main character has a necromancer system, we don't go straight into that. There's a bit of a slow burn, a learning curve for Kai, and he is just a baby when he starts, so give it some time to build up to it. He's not just going to be raising armies of undead while less than a year old. ----------------------------------------------------- Inspiration: D&D is a huge inspiration for this. And I have played as a necromancer-like character in dozens of games, read several books that had necromancers as either the main character, or the antagonist. Death has always been something that has interested me when it comes to my fiction, so I am hoping to share that with all of you. ----------------------------------------------------- Support the Author: Please use coins/stones/golden tickets, or review my novel!

An Extra's POV: The Last Arcane Sorcerer

Born with a rare albinism and cursed with crippling paralysis, Aethan Narok was destined to be nothing more than an extra in the grand household of the Narok family. While his elder siblings forged legacies as valiant Knights and esteemed scholars—serving the Kingdom and marrying into nobility—Aethan’s days passed in a constant repetition of feeding, cleaning, and silent resting. Yet fate has a strange way of revealing hidden power... Something long dormant was waiting to be awoken. On a particularly dark night, with the Blood Moon casting its crimson glow upon the world, a maid lunged at Aethan, her hands coiling around his neck with murderous intent. In that suffocating moment, as despair and weakness threatened to overwhelm him, something stirred deep within Aethan. The ancient blood of the Narok line answered his silent plea, and with a forceful, bloody rush, the dormant bloodline within him erupted. In the same sudden instant, he ended the maid's life—draining her blood and sealing his transformation. That transforming moment altered Aethan’s fate irreversibly. What had once been seen as weakness became the seed of unimaginable power—a spark that promised vengeance and a drive beyond anyone's imagination. Now, with the blood of his ancestors coursing through his veins, Aethan must confront a world that deems him both a cursed being and a harbinger of change. Will he master his awakened bloodline, or will it control and ultimately determine his fate?

I'm a God to My Isekai Girlfriend!

Michael Cobb had it all: a golden arm, a college scholarship, and a ticket out of poverty—until a hit-and-run left him maimed, penniless, and stranded in a hospital reeking of antiseptic and regret. With his future crushed under medical debt and a phantom itch where his pitching arm used to be, he’s ready to give up… until a mysterious app hijacks his phone. [INSTALL COMPLETE] [Claim Your Perfect Companion!] Then the app appears. [CLAIM YOUR PERFECT COMPANION!] It’s a trashy mobile game—or so Michael thinks. But when he downloads it, he doesn’t get loot boxes or anime waifus. He gets Aiko: a scarred samurai girl shackled in a dungeon, her ribs cracked, her will broken, and her status bar screaming Suicide Risk: High. The rules are simple: pay to heal her, feed her, save her. Ninety-nine cents mends her bones. Two dollars buys her a meal. Forty-nine bucks triggers an earthquake to break her chains. But this is no game. Aiko is real. Every dollar Michael spends alters her world—and every choice binds them closer. As he drains his bank account to arm her against slavers, warlords, and a shadowy Teahouse empire, Aiko begins to revere her “Kami-sama.” Now Michael faces an impossible choice: hoard his last $1,000 for a crumbling future, or burn it all to fuel Aiko’s revolution. Because her enemies are hunting her. Her world is merging with his. And the app’s final warning still chills his screen: [ACCOUNT BINDS TO DNA. NO REFUNDS. NO ESCAPES.]
