In the once-peaceful realm of Gíria, elves, humans, dragons, and shapeshifters lived in harmony — until the Dark Elves emerged from the shadows, wielding a cursed weapon: Karips, a blade so powerful even dragons fell before it. When all hope seemed lost, a legendary creature appeared — a celestial dragon with two hearts. Sacrificing one of them, he sealed away the darkness and vanished. His heart became a sacred relic, worshiped and protected to ensure balance. But centuries later, greed returned. A war broke out over the dragon’s heart, and in the chaos, it was destroyed. The seal shattered. Darkness returned. And the Dark Elves began their conquest once again. Seventeen years pass... A quiet village boy named Lion, born a slave with no past or dreams, crosses paths with the ancient sorceress Nicia. When she touches his hand, a vision strikes her — the heart still lives, and it beats inside him. He doesn’t know why. He doesn’t believe it. But destiny does. And the war is far from over. Haunted by ancient visions and hunted by forces he doesn’t understand, Lion is thrust into a world of prophecy, betrayal, and forgotten power. Whispers spread across the land — the Dragon Heart beats again, and whoever controls it may command the fate of the world. With enemies closing in and allies unsure of his true nature, Lion must journey through shattered kingdoms and cursed forests, unlocking memories not his own — memories of wings, fire, and celestial skies. But the return of the heart has awakened more than hope… Karips, the cursed weapon, stirs once more — and the Dark Elves want it back. As kingdoms rise and fall, Lion will have to choose: accept his fate and rise as the reborn dragon, or fall like the rest… and watch the world burn.

Hananoi Tojiko is a figure shrouded in controversy, a human being who has long wished he had never been born. From his earliest memories, he saw himself as a miserable creature, cursed by existence itself. At the age of eight, he attempted to end his life—a desperate act that not only failed but also set his life spiraling into chaos. His mother’s hatred for him grew venomous, and the violent fights between his parents became the backdrop of his shattered childhood. When the news of his suicide attempt spread like a plague through the neighborhood, the shame and scrutiny became unbearable, forcing him to flee Japan, a broken boy exiled from his own home. Years later, Hananoi returns to Japan, a shadow of his former self, yet bearing the title of a recommended student at Noriko High School—a prestigious institution reserved for the elite. The school is a gilded cage, filled with the children of powerful families, prodigies, and those destined for greatness. But beneath its polished surface lies a world of cutthroat ambition, hidden cruelty, and unspoken rules. Hananoi, with his fractured psyche and the scars of his past, is an outsider in this world of privilege. His return is not a homecoming; it is a collision. His nemesis, a figure from his past, lurks in the shadows, waiting to reignite their bitter rivalry. And within Hananoi’s mind, the demons of his childhood still linger, whispering doubts and feeding his darkest impulses. Will he find a way to confront the darkness that has followed him since childhood, or will it consume him entirely? In a world where power and influence reign supreme, Hananoi’s tormented mind may be his greatest weapon—or the chain that drags him into the abyss.

Watch him struggle as he battles with Demonic Beasts, rival cultivators, his own mortality and perhaps the most dangerous enemy of it all, his own bitter nature

-- Cursed to be a wanderer of time, Kamigan is doomed to leap into the future every time he dies, leaving behind the people he loves and the life he struggles to build. With every death, the world moves forward—unfamiliar, changed, and indifferent to his suffering. The past becomes an unreachable memory, and the future, an endless abyss of solitude. Burdened by the weight of countless lives lost to time, Kamigan roams a world that no longer remembers him, where legends fade, and history marches on without him. In the shifting tides of ages, he searches for answers—a way to break the curse, a way to reclaim what was stolen from him. But time is not his only enemy. Forces beyond human comprehension watch his journey with piercing eyes, some seeking to control him, others to erase him entirely. As he crosses paths with forgotten heroes, tyrants, and those who live in the ruins of the past he once knew, Kamigan must decide: Will he fight against fate, or will he accept his exile as an eternal truth? In a world where time moves forward but never back, where memories vanish but pain lingers—how much of oneself can remain before the past becomes nothing more than a dream? -

So, get this — I died. And no, not in some heroic, save-the-world kind of way. Just your average, "Oops, guess I wasn’t the main character" situation. But instead of finding myself in some fantasy world with a harem and godlike powers, I wake up as… a worm. Yeah. A literal, squishy parasite in a lab, surrounded by creepy scientists and test tubes. Awesome, right? Turns out, I’m part of some twisted experiment, and my new life plan is basically "don’t get stepped on." But then there’s Aika. She’s this soft-spoken, part-AI girl who’s way too innocent to be stuck in a place like this. She doesn’t treat me like a disgusting lab freak, which is a nice change of pace. Together, we figure out how to survive the horrors of the lab — including some monstrous Hive Mind that wants to consume everything. Fun times. Except things don’t exactly go according to plot. Reality itself breaks. Next thing I know, we’re thrown into a different world like someone hit the cosmic reset button. But hey, I’ve still got my snark, a rapidly growing set of parasite powers, and an unsettling suspicion that I’m way more involved in this universe’s screw-up than I’d like to be. I’m not some legendary hero, and I’m definitely not the chosen one. But if fate’s got a problem with me, it better be ready to fight. Because this Parasyte isn’t going down without a bite.

In The Quiet Embrace, a young man battles deep emotional turmoil while trapped in the shadow of his family’s tragic past. The novel explores themes of loss, trauma, love, and the inescapable consequences of past actions. The story unfolds through two perspectives: that of a grieving son and his mother, Gloria. The son, Ike, is emotionally distant, barely speaking, and withdrawing from the world after the death of his father, Jonah. Gloria, drowning in alcoholism, reminisces about the love story that once defined her life—a love that ultimately led to suffering. Flashbacks reveal Jonah’s past as a gang member who, despite his attempts to leave that life behind, could not escape its grip. His choices eventually lead to his death in a tragic accident, leaving behind a broken family. Gloria, once hopeful for a perfect life, finds herself spiraling into despair, while Ike struggles to find meaning in a home that reminds him only of loss. As the novel progresses, questions arise: Can Ike break free from the cycle of trauma, or will he succumb to the same quiet suffering as his mother? Will Gloria find redemption, or will she continue her self-destruction? The Quiet Embrace is a poignant exploration of how the past clings to the present, shaping destinies in ways no one can predict.
