《The First Corridor of Old Works》Chapter 114: Various Species of Intestine Hung From the Ceiling
Advertisement
Pheel Cazzo found himself in a subterranean trapezoid corridor, whose floor was mist. Colours: turquoise, orange, red exchanging prominence and importance, beneath the, in some sense incomprehensible to him, exterior of - in terms not just of his emotional register - the indefinable presence of a consciousness that had to be by definition demonic.
He moved forward, as if he had his own supernatural organs that told him this was the only thing he could do; absent from Art, trying to understand being itself in relationship to the increase of this demon, perhaps already inside him. He thought it was already inside him. It was already inside him.
Separating it from himself, was how he would defeat this corridor.
This was a thought he prayed came solely from him; not the demon: this was his problem, because he didn't know if it was inevitable or only likely that by fighting this thing internally he would irretrievably eradicate essential portions of himself.
The physical space mattered, the reality of it, his moving further into it, feeling the increase in the demon as he did.
Art entered it. The walls were organs, hanging off each other. Various species of intestine hung from the ceiling, ropes he had to pass between/tossing them aside, smacking him back in the coupon bloody and wet. He'd been disgusted before; had plunged even into eldritch realms of whatever, masses of shit etc., had fought demons of every variety - at least he had the memories that related these experiences. Perhaps only translated to fit his current existence, if you could call it that:
But this useless discourse upon the nature of memory he'd rather not contemplate at the minute because he feared this too was a weapon against him. It was an effort at ripping out whatever remained that he could connect himself to. He went on. Cocks, and bizarre arrangements of spleens, kidney wallpaper, all too three dimensional.

Art passed into a room the walls of which were livers, pulsing deep red, beckoning him towards he knew not what new arrangement of thoughts inside himself. Another tunnel, more hanging intestines; he went further in and down, caked in the shit and the blood that alternately was squirted at him by the various sphincter hooks appointed variously that, his activating something, shat, mainly blood he thought, all over him.
What was this? The sick - body dream of a demon?
Who even was -
There was a door all faces, at the end of the corridor.

Azarinth Healer
A new world with nearly unlimited possibilities. A status, classes, magic and monsters. Sounds good? Well, for Ilea it didn't come quite as expected as for some other protagonists, nor was there a king or god to welcome her. The grand quest? Well, she might figure that out someday but for now, a new world with new food is prize enough. Her fists at the ready, she's prepared to punch and get punched, however long it takes and however many limbs she might have to regrow. A story I've started writing now quite a while ago. Transported to another world, somewhat standard fantasy setting with my beginner attempts to make it dark but funny. There are Litrpg elements here but I do hope it's not too heavy and annoying. The fights should be interesting and aren't just numbers vs numbers. Contrary to the title the protagonist will be quite an offensive fighter. Ilea Spears is your average sarcastic kick-boxing fast food worker and soon to be student. She will be transported to another world rather conventionally and will be confronted with survival in the wild. Give it a shot and let me know what you think. My experience is incredibly lacking. If you find yourself hating it early on, do convey your anger in a detailed comment or review :) I want to get better but without any feedback it's simply quite difficult. Quick heads up: Around chapter 120 there are a bunch of longer PoV changes that I discontinued again shortly after. The Arc around chapters 150-200 is darker than the rest and the themes shift quite a bit. Just know that it goes back to what you've come to know after that section. Thank you for reading. Quick update June 2019: Many complaints regarding the formatting, specifically spacing in conversations and of course the usage of the present tense in the first 36 chapters have been addressed. I'm of course learning by the day but compared to how it was before it should be an improvement at least. Chapters usually around 3k words Cover art by Kevin Catalan

Flame Beneath The Snowfall
Alto is a world governed by Tones. Magic, as one might call it. Manifested through deep mental and physical conditioning, one can control the Tones in a way that is unique to them. The power to store items in gems, transfer life, affect a person's mind, and even the more primal abilities such as control of the elements. Those who have these supernatural abilities are called 'Vassals.' People that fully manifest their abilities are not as common as one might think, and not all Vassals acquire their ability through practice, given if conditions are met. In fact, those who had received much trauma manifest the Tones more frequently, albeit spontaneously. However, the rare kind of Vassals are those who manifest it from childhood. A gift, but not without its repercussions. Alto is stuck in a transitional era, where the line between modern and dated technology is blurred. One can travel to a city that has a tall skyline, bustling with people in sophisticated clothing, or a mere town governed by a lord, all the while riding on a powered vehicle. Cultures vary: Some turn to the more dated practices such as castes, others are more inclined to set equal footing on their people, led by nobility. Some are dedicated to become scholars, studying Alto's Tones, while others set foot on hunts, protecting lone towns from the creatures of some of the still-untamed lands. And the Vassals? Those willing are took under The Organization, an elusive group, its presence said to permeate all throughout Alto, taking care of Rogue Vassals that abuse their abilities and other businesses related to their side. But what is this story all about, you may ask? Well, set your sights on the upper portions of this huge landmass that is Alto. Yes, the 'whole' world is called Alto, but that is because the majority of the known people live on this large continent. Relieve yourself of the worrying tensions everywhere, and see the white snow. Trace the piercing mountaintops and focus your eyes between the valley. A town sits there. Mido. After realizing that the memories only left in his mind was the night of his town's imminent destruction in flames, a boy finds himself grasping for every fiber of his life as he lays down flat on the ground. Beneath him was soot mixed with the white snow. Fortunately, a group of investigators, who were supposed to answer their call for help, saved him from his sorry state. With a newfound second wind, but hampered by his loss of memory, he must solve his own case: Who had the audacity to set Mido, his town, aflame? Flame Beneath the Snowfall focuses on action, with a sense of adventure, but mostly the discovery of an outside world, and the protagonist's exposure to it. Add in a whisk of soft magical elements, and you get a story that I hope will be interesting to the readers. That is not to say that my work is without the sense of unnerving atmosphere, however. As a forewarning, there are elements of gore, horror, minor elements of mental trauma, etc. so it is not for all audiences. *The book is already completed. Although I have plans to continue the story (it would have to involve much larger scope in terms of world-building), I have yet to decide when to start the next entry.
