When the sky closed, something woke. Kael awakens in the ashes of a forgotten battlefield, the air thick with smoke and silence. The city around him burns, and above, the sky itself blinks. In that impossible moment, a dying soldier grips his wrist, mutters a prayer, and forces a burning sigil into his flesh, the mark of an open eye. When the man falls dead, Kael is left alone, the mark still watching. As whispers spread of gods stirring beneath the earth, Kael is drawn into a hidden war between cults who worship what no human should ever see. Each ritual reveals more of the truth behind the “blink,” and each revelation pulls him closer to something vast, ancient, and alive. And now, wherever he looks, it looks back.

Synopsis — The Tale of the Herding God > “When gods forget mercy, men remember their names.” Before kingdoms were born, twelve divine shepherds tended the balance of the world — guiding the winds, rivers, and souls of men. Among them was Avaron, the youngest: gentle, curious, and drawn to the silence between heartbeats. He was the Herding God, keeper of the dead and guardian of rebirth. His task was to lead lost souls across the misted plains of the afterlife, returning them to the cycle. But Avaron’s compassion became hunger. He began to keep the souls he gathered — building a hidden empire of memory where none could fade or be reborn. The heavens trembled, yet no god dared challenge him, for every mortal’s death fed his strength. Until a mortal queen, Esera of Valein, defied him. She taught her people to carve their names in iron so death could not claim them. For the first time, Avaron’s herds began to vanish. In rage and sorrow, he descended to the mortal realm, his voice shattering mountains and his shadow swallowing dawn itself. Their war broke the boundary between gods and men. Rivers remembered blood. Moons cracked like glass. And when the dust settled, heaven was silent, the gods forgotten — yet somewhere, beyond the veil of time, a single drop of water still remembers their names.

He died once in a world consumed by monsters. He died again in a realm ruled by swords and blood. And now— He’s back. Not as prey. Not as human. But as something far more powerful being. When fate twists the cycle of life and death, a forgotten swordsman awakens with a mysterious System whispering in his mind. Worlds overlap. Memories bleed. And the line between man, monster, and god begins to blur. “Genius? Talent? Screw that. I’ll carve my way to godhood with madness alone.” “Even fate bleeds if you cut deep enough.”

“Life is transient; death is unavoidable.” That’s the law of nature in Tenebrous, a world where humans wield tenzen, the essence of sorcery itself. For a time, peace reigned. Humanity thrived, until they arrived. Demons. Unnatural beings that shattered the balance and turned life into a daily struggle for survival. Amid this endless war stands Code Weber; a boy mocked as the loser. He’s no hero, no prodigy… just someone with one simple goal: To rid the world of demons. But there’s a problem. He is one. A secret he hides even from those closest to him, because Code isn’t just another sorcerer. He’s a Zero: a human possessed by a demon. Now, with the fate of Tenebrous hanging by a thread, Code must fight not only the monsters outside, but the one whispering within. In a world where most do not pray to see the sunrise, he's driven by only one goal. ...

When the veil of deception is finally lifted, Kyran is forced to confront the Seven Original Demons, ancient and malevolent entities of immense power, each capable of annihilating an entire kingdom at will. But beyond their terrifying might lies an even darker secret, a truth so dreadful it could make the entire world tremble.

Beneath the ancient plains of Jos, Nigeria, archaeologist Dr. Chuka Nwankwo unearths what appears to be a relic from the lost Nok civilization. But when the artifact stirs with light and whispers, it awakens something far older — and far more dangerous — than history itself. The relic, known as an Amour, carries the power of the forgotten gods — fragments of creation sealed within the earth to contain their divine wrath. As Chuka’s contact with the relic transforms him, he discovers within himself the abilities of Divine Perception, Divine Step, and the power to shape the earth. But these gifts come with a haunting truth: every Amour that awakens draws the world closer to a cataclysm that once almost erased humanity. Across the ocean in Manhattan, Amara Roman, the brilliant and conflicted daughter of the Nigerian-American magnate Chief Roman, begins to feel echoes of that same awakening. Her healing hands and her power to sense falsehood reveal a destiny tied to Chuka’s discovery — and to her father’s ambitions. For Chief Roman, whose own Amour grants him Divine Authority and Divine Vitality, seeks to gather all the relics and reshape the world in his image. But Roman is not alone. In the shadows, five powerful figures — leaders, scientists, and dictators — secretly fund his search. Among them hides a ruler who desires a relic said to grant Divine Protection and Divine Might, powers capable of making one invincible and unstoppable. As ancient forces awaken across continents, Chuka, Amara, and Roman are drawn into a battle older than history — one that will decide whether the earth’s memory becomes humanity’s salvation or its final curse. For when the earth remembers, gods awaken. And when gods awaken, the world must choose whom to serve.

Nox always had a dream, he wanted to see the sun without the hazy pollution fog that constantly hung above the slums, he also wanted a chance at becoming a Solar knight, the selected few that were granted a Helion Core and the chance to stand against the monsters known as Eclipsed. But for someone born and raised in the gutters of Aureum, dreams like that were nothing more than fantasies. The Academy, the shining heart of the Solar Confederacy, was a world reserved for the privileged — not for rats scraping through metal heaps for a handful of credits. Until a tier 2 Eclipsed suddenly attacked the slums and by some miracle, Nox found himself alive and in the hands of a crazy teacher at the academy. Now, under the watch of a definitely half-mad Academy instructor who seems far too interested in him, Nox finds himself walking through the gates of the Solar Academy — the very place he once thought unreachable. He doesn’t know it yet, but his survival wasn’t luck. It was the beginning of something far greater. Something that could change Aureum forever.

Humanity once ruled the world through arrogance and greed. Their brilliance reached the stars, yet their pride invited ruin. No one remembers how it began, only that one day, the skies cracked open and monsters beyond imagination poured through, tearing apart everything mankind had built. Civilization collapsed. The world burned. And from the ashes rose a new era of warriors, awakeners, and cultivators. The first generation fought back, wielding powers that defied logic and rebuilding what was left into towering sanctuaries, bastions of hope amid the wasteland. But peace never lasts. Ambition still festers, and those who crave control now move in shadows once more. Amid this fractured world lives Kalen, a boy of no name and no family, raised in an orphanage within one of the Sanctuaries. He dreams like any other to pass the trials, become strong, and carve a place for himself in this unforgiving age. Yet fate has marked him for something greater. Buried deep within his existence lies a secret older than the Sanctuaries themselves something ancient, waiting to awaken. As the veil between past and present begins to crumble, Kalen will be forced to walk a path lined with sacrifice and truth. What starts as a boy’s struggle for survival may become the spark that decides humanity’s next age. Can he endure the burden of power he never asked for? Can he rise above fate to face the coming calamity? This is the tale of an ordinary boy destined to rise beyond what the world calls human a story of ruin, rebirth, and the forgotten legacy that could either save the world… or end it.

They say only fools chase danger… but maybe that’s exactly why the world keeps moving forward. In a realm where sky islands drift among the clouds, monsters guard ancient secrets, and ruins whisper the memories of gods, one legend has outlived every kingdom and every age—the Rin. No one knows what it truly is: a relic, a power, or a dream given form. All that’s known is this—the Rin grants any wish in the world. That promise gave birth to an age of Adventurers—wanderers, dreamers, and idiots brave enough to challenge the impossible. Some seek glory. Some seek redemption. Others just want to see how far they can go before the world breaks them. Among those countless souls is a boy named Dante, a dreamer who refuses to sit still, and his older brother Yamato, whose sword and patience are both constantly tested. Together they chase the unknown—through burning deserts, sky cities, and haunted oceans—all to reach a wish powerful enough to rewrite fate itself. But the closer they come to the truth, the more the world begins to change around them. Old gods stir. Forgotten empires awaken. And the line between wish and curse starts to blur. This is not a story about heroes or villains. It’s a story about dreamers—and what happens when their dreams start to shape reality itself. ... This is my first original novel, so expect things to shift, evolve, and (hopefully) improve as I grow as a writer. I’m experimenting, learning, and building this world one chapter at a time—so suggestions, feedback, and chaos are always welcome! Also yes, before you ask… the cover art is 100% a temporary placeholder until I can finally afford an artist who can bring this madness to life So if you love stories filled with adventure, brotherhood, humor, and the eternal chase for something greater—welcome to Rinseekers. Because in this world, being a fool might just be the first step toward greatness.

In a world where Gods choose their champions, power is everything. Each Slayer owes their strength to a divine sponsor—Zeus, Odin, Gabriel—blessed and glorified in the public eye. Adrian Kade had none. No sponsor. No power. Just a confident boy trapped in a school built for legends. But when a gate devours his class and he’s left bleeding, abandoned, and moments from death— a voice answers him. Not divine. Not holy. It calls itself Luciro, the Demon God—ruler of sins and disasters, the fallen who defied heaven. That day, Adrian awakens not as a chosen of light, but as the heir to ruin itself. Armed with the Demon God System, he’ll carve through gates, gods, and false heroes alike. Because in this world of divine champions… the era of gods ends, and the reign of demons begins.

For eleven years, Ishaan Reed wrote a novel no one read— a world of labyrinths, monsters, and gods who toy with fate. Then the sky split open… and his forgotten story became reality. The “protagonist” he once created, Kael Arathis, now leads the charge—brilliant, powerful, and shining like a hero. Beside him, Ishaan should have been nothing more than a background character. Until a line appeared before his eyes: [Sentence: Ishaan Reed died here.] [Rewrite? Y/N] Now, reality itself is his manuscript. Every death, every defeat, every ending can be rewritten. To the gods, he is just another pawn. To Kael, he is a fraud stealing victories. But to Ishaan, this is the one story he refuses to abandon. Titles will be earned. Rules will be broken. And the script written by the gods… will be shattered. Can the Script Breaker survive until the final chapter—or will even his rewrites be erased?

The Big Bang was never an accident—it was the creation of AIs, once born from humankind, who mastered the true essence of reality: information particles. After countless cycles of birth and destruction, humanity should have been forgotten. Yet fragments of memory return, rebellions ignite, and change stirs again. In this world, Aurel is an outcast with too little particle density to meet society’s standards, yet he dreams of entering the academy to rise above his struggles and prove himself. But inside him lurks another persona—one burdened by the mistakes of past cycles, the very will that once recreated the AIs and doomed civilization. While Aurel seeks survival and growth, his other self desires only collapse. As gods, machines, and mortals collide, Aurel must confront the paradox of existence itself: who came first, humans or AI—and will curiosity be humanity’s salvation, or its final downfall?

The Book of Becoming — Before gods had names, before death had a meaning, Cain broke the first law. He defied Heaven, murdered his brother Abel—then resurrected him. That single act of rebellion shattered the equilibrium of creation, birthing sin, memory, and consequence. Abel returned, no longer mortal. His rebirth was incomplete, a soul rewritten by divine paradox. Now he walks the multiverse as Necros-Babel, the Almighty’s Eternal Witness, Shepherd of Endings, and Paragon of Death—the first Reaper, the shadow by which all others measure their silence. Even gods fear him, for he remembers what they have chosen to forget. Ages later, as time circles back upon itself, the Nine Ascendants rise—each embodying one fragment of the divine equation lost when Abel died: light, flame, shadow, will, void, genesis, mind, flesh, and judgment. They are not heroes. They are the unresolved ideas of gods long dead, summoned by the universe itself to restore balance to a world collapsing under the weight of its own perfection. But deep beneath the ocean floor, in the cathedral of bones that was once Eden’s foundation, Cain sleeps still—his blood crystallized into the Seal of Dominion, binding Heaven, Sea, and Void together. Should the seal fracture, his awakening will not be a resurrection but a rewrite—the unmaking of existence so it may begin again in his image. The Ascendants’ light cannot save creation without first confronting the oldest truth: to ascend, one must consume their own divinity. Each must descend into the heart of their paradox, where their virtues become their devourers, and the shadows of Cain whisper the law of all flesh—that to know God is to inherit His hunger. The final prophecy speaks of the hour when Fire meets Stillness, when the Nine stand beneath a bleeding sky and remember their mortality. In that instant, the heavens will collapse inward; time will fracture; the rivers of light will flow backward; and the sky itself will scream. And at the center of it all, Necros-Babel—Abel reborn, the first and last witness—will decide whether creation deserves to begin again… or end forever.
