《Goddess at the Gates》Prologue: Judgement of Uruk

Judgement upon Uruk
‘’I, Enmerkar, King of Larsa, appointed by the Divine Lord of Utu, in accordance with the will of Anu, Heavenly ruler of the Annunaki, inform you, Eneduanna, High Priestess of Uruk, of the sentence you are to receive. This verdict has been conducted by the form of our sacred laws and the agreed will of the Larsan Judges.
I, Enmerkar, am the prosecutor of your sin. I rule Larsa as you rule Uruk, and hence you will be accountable for any and all actions that stem from your red city. This sentence for your crimes I send back to Uruk chiseled in granite, alongside your harlots that have walked amongst us, now exiled back to whence they came.
The court has found you, Eneduanna, guilty of the following offenses against the Kingdom of Larsa:
You are guilty of murder, adultery, theft, false witnessing and coveting.
You are guilty of corruption, degeneration, fornication, enslavement, and sacrifices conducted on citizenry of Larsa.
You are guilty of attempts at bribery, seduction, whoring, threatening, unfair mercantile practices and trading in forbidden goods.
Most of all, you have been accused of unprovoked warmongering against my Kingdom, and indeed the court has found you guilty.
Packs of red-clothed men have prowled in our lands, and in the lands of others. Lions stemming from your arid plains have prowled in our lands, and in the lands of others. No longer can we ignore the rapine and filth that flows from your Uruk. We remember when Uruk, once a small merchant’s town on the banks of the river, knew its rightful place in the world. Now it has become cursed with your presence, and we are forced to destroy those who we once held in friendship.
Judgement is upon you, Eneduanna, High-Priestess of Uruk.
Your high walls will be leveled to the ground, and your high gates shall be burned with fire.The labors of your people will be for nothing, because they will no longer exist. You have broken sacred laws of the Heavens and your actions have angered those around you.

I, Enmerkar, King of Larsa, will ensure that you will drain the cup of wine of fury and wrath. The idols you have so pridefully raised to yourself will be dismayed and put to shame. I shall make your city desolate, and none shall dwell in it; both man and beast shall flee away or will not live to see the next dawn rise. All your luxury and vain splendor will vanish, never to be seen again.
Never again will a people purchase your cargos of gold, silver, precious stones and pearls; of fine linens purple, silk and scarlet; of all kinds of citron wood and every article of ivory, precious wood, bronze, copper and marble; of cinnamon, spice, incense, myrrh; of wine, olive oil, fine flour, and wheat; of cattle, sheep, oxen and arms; of slaves and souls of men. Your great marketplace will become a ruined memory, your fortunes brought to dust. You false prophetess, whatever tainted blood flows through your veins, we reject it.
The sentence we give you is death: the Court of Sumer demands your head.
Death to you, Eneduanna, High-priestess of Uruk.
Death to you, and I, Enmerkar, King of Larsa, will carry out your execution.
I, Enmerkar, King of Larsa, declare war upon you, Eneduanna, High-Priestess of Uruk.
My men cannot break as long as the sun shines.
Utu, God of Sun and Justice, withers you, oh Witch of Uruk.
Summer is my domain.’’

One Piece No Go No Ken
Work discontinued and ending. Other authors are free to message me if they want to take it A synopsis serves to attract attention without lying. This is useful because it gives a first impression of the novel, and immerse even before plunging into the story. Unfortunately, it does not count as one of my specialties.This fanfic is really peculiar and I think that few people will be able to appreciate it. So instead of trying to make you salivate, then have you disappointed, it would be better for you to make your own opinion, that is if you have time on your hands. If you do not like one piece or shounen animes, then you'd better turn back, as it would be a worthless read for you. If you've made it this far and have time to spare for yet one worthless attempt at making an original one-piece fanfic, then have a good read. N.B: I do not own one Piece or Fist of the north star, the image above, or any other anime/fictional character referenced in this fiction Please do not donate on this particular fanfic!

Chosen Chaos
30 years have passed since first contact. Earth has now been accepted into the galactic community, is expanding its territory to other planets, and has begun to adopt the myriad advanced technologies found throughout the Milky Way Galaxy. But as the least advanced race in the galaxy, the Earthians are struggling to carve a niche for themselves, made all the more difficult by the fact that they are the only race in the entire galaxy incapable of developing supernatural powers. Until recently. Few know how or why, but small groups of Earthians have begun to display superhuman abilities — and the militaries of the galaxy have begun to display interest in them. Combined with the rise of an evil thought to have been vanquished two decades ago, these superpowered Earthians are forced to choose between the value of their own lives… and the value of the entire galaxy. Part 1: Chosen Few — A mundane visit to the local science museum starts off a series of worrying events for Austin Travis and his friends. They would like nothing more than to continue living their lives as they have, but the universe seems to have other plans… Part 2: Chosen Elite — CSF-1 and the Eximius Vir return to normal military operation and discover a clue to finding powerful ancient technology. However, they aren’t the only ones to discover this clue, and soon find themselves in a race against time to prevent the technology from falling into the wrong hands… Part 3: Chosen Hidden — As the summer comes to an end, Pierce Bradley and his friend prepare for their last few days studying abroad on an alien planet. Pierce would like nothing more than to return home and flaunt his new experiences in front of his friends and classmates, but the universe seems to have other plans… Chosen and its three parts begin the Key Saga, a new novel series that takes place 20 years after Rise — which tells the tale of the aforementioned evil. Reading Rise is not a prerequisite for reading Chosen, but it will help to understand the setting and the various conflicts within. Character art on cover by @quassihollic on twitter.
