CALENDAR DAY 05 MONTH 05 YEAR 201 LOCATION: Fortitude of Perdition, west of the capital. It is dawn already I hear the horn playing for changes of shifts, running down the corridors of the Castle I arrive at the section of the walls I open the door and go to the watchtower, getting there my shift colleague who will spend the next hours with me he is 3 meters long and 20 cm with narrow eyes always looks serious with dark leather and matte metal armor to camouflage at night holding a bow with both upper hands and a sword at the waist that the lower left hand is holding. "Hey Leon, it was bad because of the delay I had to go to the barracks to get my armor, last attack last week a Quetz pierced it all'' "Do you think they will attack today? It's been a month since they started attacking frequently, but these days they are quiet Leon listening replies says - It must be because we killed many of them, the researchers said that it is because of the large population of beasts that grows more each day so they attack us, food is scarce for them and our valley becomes a treasure for them, 100 years ago it wasn't like that not even hungry they didn't attack us but over time it seems they are getting smarter and more aggressive Hopefully the researchers will find some solution for that When Leon talks about researchers his eyes shine, he knows that people who only know how to fight like he doesn't have much use but the researchers did , he sent his daughter there and stayed here on the border for over 100 years just to do contributions and protect his family from attacks Green - yes in the last few years even the Quetz are learning to cooperate and give us sneak attacks Remembering last week Green shivers all over, he almost loses his life in a Quetz attack. They are a small but dangerous reptile species reaching very high speeds with the minimum of noise, they can camouflage themselves perfectly in the jungle and have sharp claws with poison that even a resistance-modified soldier can die if not treated in time Leon who was looking at the forest turns to him and says in a hoarse and deep voice - no problem, it is still within the acceptable range, but let it not be repeated if I will not be obliged to report to the captain In that my heart is relieved, I straighten my posture, I clap my hand on my chest covered in armor and promise "clang" - this will not be repeated I promise it was just a special occasion, this month the logistics people have been going to the capital a lot so it took them a long time to fix my armor. I look to the side quickly seeing that there is no one whisper softly to Leon - Don't you find their behavior a little mysterious? Leon seeing shakes his head in helplessness he knows that this soldier is still young He's just been promoted he still has several things he hasn't learned, full of curiosity about everything but why he likes him still has to warn - do not be so speculating in public about the actions of your superiors if someone goes like this and denounces you may return to militia training for a few months as a punishment, but I know that your young hearts do not stop quiet anywhere, so I will talk I heard rumors at dinner with the captain that it will be a surprise from the scientific department for our military in a while, now we will be on surveillance here and this matter is over I shake my head several times and say in a serious tone —Yes yes yes I understand, my mouth is a grave Green was born in the capital 30 years ago with a father in the militia and his mother too, since he was 5 years old when he entered the academy trained to join the army and be an excellent soldier since he started showed excellent aptitude for combat and survival with a degree of acceptance for high modifications, completed all the basic modifications at the age of 20 when he left the academy to join the militia there he went through more training and modifications for combat type strength and basic agility that improves the control and coordination of muscles such as basic night vision and perception that captures vibrations in the air within a radius of 10 meters, after 4 years of intense training he managed to become a soldier with excellent handling of the bow received an experimental improvement in vision, after that he was sent to the fortress of perdition to defend his people, when arrived here was assigned to the shadow squad and received a camouflaged shadow armor as basic equipment then on here Reminding me of the past, nostalgia beats for years that he hasn't returned to the capital, but leaving the state of remembrance, I start paying attention outside, the tower we are in is part of the wall that is 20 meters high and 10 wide, that stretches for hundreds of meters blocking the entrance to the valley () with mountains blocking around this is the only easy majs passage to cross with outposts spread around we form a wide safety net We cleared 5 km of forest around to predict enemies and at that time I have privileged vision along with my improvement in the eyes, I am excellent watchman, while time goes by I tell Leon

The Cursed Heart
Kayden was six months old when the doctor found the curse in his heart. From then on, his life was a struggle to keep it locked away and dormant and above all secret, dreading the day that it would finally break free and wreak havoc. Now he’s fourteen, and that day has come. Things look bad, but there’s hope — the world’s most prestigious magical school is willing to take him in, keep him safe, and pay his legal fees to avoid bankrupting his family. Most importantly, they can teach him to control his curse, to avoid ever hurting anyone else. It sounds far too good to be true, but what other option does he have? Kayden quickly finds himself embroiled in a large political game he doesn’t understand. But he’d better learn fast. Because the secrets of his new school run deeper than he ever expected, and his actions have far more dangerous consequences than he could ever have known. ----------------------- Want to read ahead?

Gods of Arkanoth
The hunter has been betrayed, left alone in the streets of a lugubrious district. Only one goal appears in his eyes: to avenge himself. In his quest to avenge himself, he'll encounter an enigmatic scientist who seems to hide his true nature, a savior pretending to be a God, and the terrible truth of those words, bringing him against something he'd never thought he'd have to affront. This is the odyssey of the hunter, in a quest to put a long overdue end to a war between two worlds. // What to expect:The beginning will surely be intriguing, most of what's happeing won't be directly explained, although there will be some hints about their true roles, but do not worry about some subjects never leaving that misty fog that is unanswered questions! The novel is divided in two parts, the first focusing on uncovering the well-hidden secrets the city of Arkanoth hides, be it concerning its making or its inhabitants. As for the second part, it will be an expedition into the unknown, we could, in a way, say the true start of the journey our three heroes will undertake! I won't say anything more about the second part or else I might tell you an important detail without realizing... As for magic, because yes, there is magic! Although you might not see the shadow of a spell in the first chapters, it will appear in later chapters and will be one of the main subjects of volume 2. There are three heroes, yes, but they will not appear directly. While the first two protagonists appear in quite the beginning, the third will take his time, taking some stroll in the Districts of Arkanoth while we focus on the story of the hunter. But that does not lessen his importance in the story a bit, trust me. What about these three heroes, you say? Well, they all have their own issues, from their character to their torments, and as the story progresses they will have to come clean with their past (character development is to be expected) and will find their reason for fighting, braving all odds. I draw my inspiration from mythology, more precisely Aztec mythology. I want to stay true to a certain extent about it and all the relations between the gods and their role, however I will still change some things to my liking, so do not expect for all of the mythology to be respected to the letter. Finally! I have to say English is a foreign langage for me, so I might not choose the best words or straight-up miswrite something, if it bothers your experience, just tell me in the comments and I'll look into it! It is also my first time writing a book, so some parts might seem sloppy, but I hope I will be able to improve throughout this journey so as to give the most enjoyable reading experience to you. // Who might enjoy this story: Firstly, if you like deep lore and stories in which past plays a big role, you will like how everything unravels to show the hidden truths of the world. However if you do not appreciate not instantly understanding what's happening or who - or even what - this person might be, then you might not appreciate the story. There will be disturbing and gore descriptions, so if you're sensitive, don't like reading about someone being beheaded and such, you should probably pass this one. There is strong langage, although I won't abuse it, I won't be lying saying no insults will appear. Finally, the heroes will not always win, they will sometime lose battles, be it important ones or unimportant, and they will, most of the time, not come out unscathed from those. // Time Schedule : once every two sundays at 7:pm Ps : feel free to tell me if something is bad, or feel wrong with the book, it really helps me. I've written till' chapter 4 (in my mother tongue, so I'll still have to translate), however I'll make some minor and major changes, thus it will take some time to post them. Schedule will probably not change after releasing chapter 4, so don't worry, it won't take even longer to post a chapter than it already is. Enjoy the ride :)

Game? Second autumn
DROPED. This is a story about a guy who died and went isekai. While the characters may sometimes may seem too crazy, they are simply that, crazy. There is an actual way to do everything in this novel, may it be turning into a God, whatever the fuck is above that protect me from ever having a destiny like that, or conjuring a fire ball, and those are all explained during the novel. Some things are basic, like earth magic is stronger underground, or the law of equal exchange, but everything is explained at it's own time. Also on Webnovel.
