The Shadow Continent

"When the world they knew crumbled, three friends awoke in a land no map dared to name — a continent wrapped in shadows and secrets." Jason, a boy bound to a living symbiote with shifting tentacles. Lilya, the sharp-minded fighter who wields a mysterious orb that can become any weapon she imagines. And Valocity, born from the void, a being of speed, direction, and cosmic fire. Together, they’re thrown onto the Shadow Continent, a place where empires rise and fall, where survival means bending to a harsh law: power is everything. Here, humans are not alone — dominant female-led societies, strange species, and rival powers all fight for control of the land. But when an invading Empire sets its sights on conquering the continent, Jason and his friends are dragged into a war far greater than themselves. Betrayal, uneasy alliances, and mysteries older than the continent itself pull them deeper into a conflict where the line between friend and foe blurs. And in the shadows, something darker stirs — watching. [Warning: This story contains strong language, violence, and mature themes. Recommended 16+. No explicit sexual content.]
