Expedition 1.1 Steel sang in the Garden of the Moon. In the grand palace-city of Sigmaron, the garden was a quiet place of contemplation, mediation, and a haven of solitude for most. To the guardians of the free people of the Mortal Realms, it was an excellent ground to practice their dueling...

A Crown of Scarlet An Exalted GSRP Imagine the world’s end. A horde of monsters and devils advances on civilization. Everyone you know is dead by plague. Your village is an echoing shell of empty homes, some still warm with rot. Whole cities are abandoned, familiar trade routes drying up like...

“The time has come. Once more, we must summon a TRUE HERO” “I still think we can just dump a ton of Crusaders on the problem-” “TRUE… HERO.” “Eh, he’s got a point. I’m still getting my own Crusaders to stop huffing gasoline. They keep hallucinating and thinking it’s me talking to them.”...

Your name is Akemi Homura and you've failed. Again. The pale white of the hospital ceiling greets you. Again. Your worthless heart beats in your chest, persisting in its pitiful attempts to keep your blood flowing. Again. Like a swarm of hungry rats your sins scratch and gnaw on your...

I. While it is a truth universally acknowledged that a gentleman in possession of good fortune must be in want of a wife, it is no less true that – should his rites funereal precede those of his marriage – such wanting is abruptly abrogated. Mr. Thomatthis Almkirk of Gandlandshire is...

“Shout thy name out loud if… if thou wouldst accept my proposition. Let us give it our all, and may the best warrior claim victory in this singular bout.” “My name… is Ser Jaime Lannister. The Young Lion of Lannister! Kingslayer!” “My name is Don Quixote; ‘Don’ as the signifier of my nobility...

The classroom was alive with the hum of excited chatter, desks scraping against the stone floor as students moved around, exchanging gossip, jokes, and last-minute complaints about anything, including the heavy workload, tiring weather, and institutional restrictions. Sunlight filtered through...

The light from the windows is nearly blinding, a last gasp of springtime sun before the summer fog rolls into Cambria, capital of Avalon. You step into the shadow to clear your eyes, seeing the throne room you've been to so many times before. Today, instead of your father the king, it is your...

Dawn and reality break together. Space twists; trembles; tears. A tiny hole appears in the air and rapidly doubles in size, twice, thrice, five times, ten times. Around it the grass begins to wither, and the stones begin to crumble, and the very color begins to leach out of the sky, and only...

Chapter 1 - [System Initialized] Summer, 617 CA I slowly opened my eyes. The light was bright, and it took my eyes several seconds to adjust. My body felt good, all things considered. I didn't feel any fatigue or lingering injury, but I couldn't seem to move my neck. My fingers and toes...

So, Deltora Quest. One of those Children series that make you go 'wow this is pretty scary for a children's book' almost too often, and the books that almost singlehandedly got me into fantasy as a whole. Nothing like reading about people getting burnt, disfigured, or killed to make a child go...

A flight, tracing its route from Goldenrod City in Kanto to the outskirts of Twinleaf Town in Sinnoh, soared smoothly through the Sinnoh sky. Perhaps owing to the weekday, the spacious cabin was only half-occupied. A young boy named Ash, seated by the window, appeared to be dozing, a Pikachu...

In the infinite expanse of a lightless void, a solitary, luminous consciousness drifted aimlessly. This consciousness was none other than Goku himself—GT Goku, to be precise. In his timeline, an unimaginable cataclysm had unfolded: the Shadow Dragon saga. During his battle against the most...

Tanya stumbled awake, picking herself up as she looked at her hands. Long gone was all the blood and dirt that covered them mere moments ago, now they appeared clean and washed, as if the radiant sun now blinding her eyes had burned it all away. She squinted as she looked around, seeing nothing...

The wind roared warm and fierce over the hills, tugging at Spyro’s violet scales with the scent of rain-soaked earth and fragile spring blooms. He and Cynder carved through the sky, wings pounding, each beat a defiant echo of their triumph over Malefor. Below, emerald fields unfurled like a...

CH-1 Life was stagnant, similar to other days in the endless cycle of academia. I was sitting in the empty classroom after giving my lecture to the students, my weathered leather chair creaking beneath me as I shifted my weight. The fading afternoon sunlight filtered through half-drawn blinds...

Questions for the participants What era of the Warhammer fantasy timeline should the Overlord appear at? What part of the Old World should the Overlord and their tower appear in? What gender should the Overlord be? (male or female for ease of choices) What traits should the Overlord possess...

[Infinite Class System] A text-based idle game developed by a Chinese game creator and marketed as an RPG rogue-lite idle game with an infinite variety of Classes. Surprisingly, despite being a low-budget indie game with nothing but text, its advertisement delivered on its promises. It...

A breakthrough in biotechnology, an experimental self-adaptive nanite colony, was injected into my bloodstream. These nanites, designed to evolve and optimize their host beyond human limits, were still in their infancy. The experiment should have been monitored and carefully controlled...

Fire. He was on fire. The ground below his feet had crumbled to dust. The creature before him dwarfed even Serpi, and treated the humans under it like so much kindling. Bali, Tatayra, Novo, Novosi... Corintha. Varya's very skin seemed to burn as he tore himself upright. No, no, no. How could a...

Prologue Rydberg woke with a jolt, his head sinking into a pillow that felt simultaneously soft yet unnaturally cold. A chill slithered down his spine, not the familiar coolness of his dorm room's air conditioning, but something sharper, more invasive. His groggy mind tried to brush it off as...

King's Landing Seventh Moon (98 AC) Viserra I The Red Keep's stench struck Viserra first—faint rot beneath stone, laced with echoes of lost ease. Its corridors still thrummed, not yet hollowed, though her kin had thinned—some bound to duty, others flung to distant keeps. Her son of Sunglass...
