"Ohh so you are finally here, what took you so long, come sit, want some tea? Not to brag but i got best tea on the whole world, or wait if i remember you are wine lover, never mind i have wine as well, want some? Why are you standing there like an idiot, come and have a seat!"
"Who are you, where am i, i just died so this should be hell, so you are devil?"
"What!? How can that bastard be as good looking as i am!" Answered that man that was looking like he was mid thirties, dressed in white with short black hair and grin on his face. In fact that whole room was decorated in white, chair, table, flooring, walls, only plants around were green.
"G-g-god?"
"Well yes, you can call me that and you wouldn't be wrong, or you could call me Allah, Nirvana, Pangu, whatever that's all the same..."
"But i thought you would look... Well different..."
"If you say Morgan Freeman im gonna smack you in the face i swear."
"No, no, no, definitely not Morgan Freeman!"
"Why because im not black? That's racist you know..."
"No, i didn't mean that, i just..."
"Ohh relax already, im messing with you, you are so stiff, hahaha, get it? Stiff because you are dead! Hahahaha!"
"Okay..."
"Ohh come on, do you even have a sense of humor at all? Come and sit, drink with me, let's talk a bit."
He walked couple of steps and sat on a wooden chair in front of him. In front of him on the table was a glass of wine, smell of that wine was totally breathtaking, he just couldn't resist it so he grabbed that glass and downed that wine in one mouthful.
"I told you i have best wine on this world." Said grinning god across the table.

"Now where were we, ohh yes i wanted to talk with you a bit before you go, you see it's quite boring up here so i spend a lot of time watching you guys down there, from time to time theres a person or two that grab my interest a bit, and you are one of those persons. You see, by heavenly law killing is a big no-no, and you did quite a lot of that, but that's not the point, you see, you mortals created something called art, or well just named everything that looks or sounds beautiful, art, and what interested me in you was that you made your every kill an art, every stroke of your sword was like a stroke of a paint brush of an master artist, every bullet you fired was like an heavenly hymn, you made death look beautiful, and i admire you for that so because of that i have a proposition for you."
"What kind of proposition?" He stared at god dumbfounded.
"Well you are a mercenary, an assassin, you get payed for your work, so what if i hired you for something?"
"Wait what?! Hire me, but you are a god why would you hire me?"
"Well it's not really hire, it's more like a bet, yes that's it, let's have a bet!"
"A bet? What kind of bet?"
"It's simple, you lose you spend your eternity with that brat downstairs boiling in one of his cauldrons or something like that..."
"And if i win?"
"I grant you a wish, any wish you want, well except you replacing me, you can have anything you want, hows that, interested?"
"Well... Yes, but what is the bet about?"
"It's simple, i send you to another world, i noticed you like games a lot and even consider your whole life a game, so it will be a world of game, win that game and you win the bet, lose and... Well you won't have to worry about company for the rest of your eternity!" Big grin was covering gods face as he said that.

"What kind of a game?"
"Let's see, i think you call it Survival RPG? Isn't it, yes you go you do what you do best and that is killing and you level up and beat the game, it can't be any more simple than that!"
"And how do i beat the game?"
"Well that's for you to figure out there, don't worry you will have company there, there are already some survivors there trying to, well survive and beat the game, interested?"
"And what if i refuse this bet?"
"Simple, we skip this bet and i send you to that brat to roast a bit until you suffer enough for your sins, which if i may say are a lot, then either disappear or reincarnate, depends how well you manage with heat, so what's your answer?"
"I... Can i think about it?"
"Of course you can, ill send you to that brat and you can think for however long you want!"
"Can i think about it without being roasted?"
"Nope!"
"Then i accept your bet..."
"As i knew you would, so any questions?"
"What happens when i arrive to that world you spoke of?"
"Well considering you are not reincarnating into that world like rest of the people, you will keep your memories, even that law of darkness that you managed to study, which is impressive considering the amount of people who actualy have a clue about universal laws, but you won't keep your strength, you will have a new body there and you can keep that half of soul you have right now, but you can pick your appearance if you wish?"
"Wait, half of soul? How come i have half of soul?"
"Ohh that, well when you love somebody you gift them with half of your soul, your problem is that you did love that girl, but she never really loved you, so you didn't get half of her soul in return. Sorry buddy bad news for you..."
"I see, so she never loved me..."
"Well, she did, it's just that she never loved you with all her hearth, she loved that paper and gold more than you."
"If i win this bet, can you return me to where i first met her and make her love me more than money?"
"Well that's against the rules, but considering it's a bet yes i could, but are you sure you want that for your wish?"
"Yes!"
"Okay, but i will wait until bet is over, you might change your mind on the way, it would be a waste if it was like that. So, ready to go?"
"Wait, will there be a problem with my half soul there?"
"Well it might be, if you decide to learn some soul magic or something you might suck at it because you have half soul, you know what, ill gift you with something in return so don't worry about it, any more questions?"
"Can i have some more wine before i go?"
"Nope, see you later, bye!"
Swoosh!
With a wave of a hand he disappeared from sight, god kept sitting there grinning foolishly.
"Ohh this will be fun, i have to watch this!"

Thrilled to be freed from the shackles of monetary survival and societal expectations on Earth, she embraces her newfound existence and magical powers bestowed. But the rose-tinted fantasy life she always dreamed of turns out to be a stark reality that poses to kill her if she doesn't adapt and let go of her past. Essairyn battles both cripping nostalgia and imminent danger in her journey from the Spirit and Demon Forest to the human realm of As'pyze. Disillusionment leading to anger has erupted into violence across the deceptively peaceful land. New friends and allies gather by her side, but tragedy and betrayal lurk closer than she realizes.

The original version of the first book was published on RR in 2019 and has since seen multiple revisions based on reader feedback with this one as the final and official fourth version before the second book. While the entire series story has undergone major changes in the last year, all books have been planned since the beginning of writing. It is also my second wish to eventually make this story into a webcomic, either by myself or with a team if possible. Thank you for taking this journey with me, and enjoy reading! ( You can alternatively read books in the series as standalone fictions, but they connect to one another though a running theme and mystery that evolves and progresses with the main character. ) Alternate Blurb for the Singularity Cycle series: Essairyn had never felt truly alive on Earth. It felt like something was missing ever since she was born, but even after nearly 20 years of mundane living, she could never pinpoint what this or the emptiness in her heart was. Suddenly, she awakens in a grandiose, primordial forest and encounters mythical creatures beyond her restless imagination in a parallel world called Sol'h'meyr. She befriends, in particular, a sassy fox-spirit named Akari who reincarnated after three millennia. Essairyn is gifted with abnormal magic, and Akari is being chased by those of her dark past. Together, they set out on an adventure in a world more dangerous than its beautiful facade could hide. Finding new friends along a path riddled with tragedy, Essairyn must learn who to trust as deceit and betrayal lie behind kindly faces. Life in this deceptively promising world slowly spirals down a path of no return. This is not a game, but cruel reality. Her simple adventure became the modest beginnings in a chain of disruptions that tore even the dimensional fabric of time and space. No one, not even Essairyn, was who she thought they were. And not even the fickle gods could change the time-worn destiny of the universes... A single promise shook eternity’s existence.

The Many Deaths of Kara Lowe
112 years ago, the Bubble Burst. 103 years ago, the Great War ended. 76 years ago, the War of Two Worlds ended. It is now 2021 and Homo Sapiens, Homo Subcinctus, Homo Variari, and Sapient Beasts have been living together in a hard-won harmony for 75 years. Or so they say. Atypical high-school student Kara Lowe has some serious doubts about that. After she is killed and brought back to life by her accidental murderers, she is forced to abandon everything she thought she knew about the world, and herself. While plagued by a mysterious Order that believes she should not exist, Kara must prove her right to life by destroying an age-old enemy with an unfortunate connection to her. There won't be a ton of gore or traumatising content, that's not the focus, but the tags are there to be safe. The main character uses colourful language when she's angry. The main character might seem to be talking to you at times. She is not. Things will make sense eventually. A quick note about religion: this novel takes place in an Alternate History setting. No existing religion from our world exists in this one. Any similarities are coincidential.

Tesla Stone and the World of Smoke and Mirrors
R0Q-T357-Alpha (callsign: Rock) is a "Core Child," an irredeemably-crippled test tube baby modified and repurposed by an advanced U.S. military project to serve as the CPU for two-thirds of America's orbital defense systems. Though no one outside of the Pentagon has ever heard of him, he protected his homeland from three ICBMs, a Pacific theatre invasion fleet, and one rogue asteroid. Now, after twenty-seven years of distinguished service from "birth," he is being honorably discharged into civilian life. The only problem is that "civilian life" isn't exactly livable for a glorified brain in a jar. How does a couple pounds of grey matter surrounded by five tons of life support systems and enough co-processing enhancements to take over the planet enjoy an early retirement when he's surrounded by overzealous politicians, corporate spies, and foreign agents after military secrets? The real world isn't that forgiving.
