Back-Story
“Looking back my life was always a horrible story, no one to care for me or take care of me. Like you I always had a Father and Mother, back then I would run around the park with my father and cook with my mother. Until that event, we say every life matters on earth, but what about my parents?” I say as the ant walks on my hand.
“It all started the day we went to the museum. Mom, Dad, and I were going on a trip to celebrate my birthday. I was 9 then. Sadly we didn't know what would befall us on that day.”
“What happened?” I think the ant said while circling my hand.
“ 2 hours after we entered the building we saw men with strange masks and guns running into the museum. I believe they tried to rob the museum. I'm not sure anymore but I know that they wanted to take some women with them, my mom included but my dad didn't let them.”
*pow* *pow*
“We heard gunshots go off. I look down and I see a red liquid on my hands making its way to my legs, I did not move because I was scared of those bastards. Then the men ran out of the building frightened, everyone was happy saying “Thank god they are gone” all except for me.”
“I looked beside me and I saw two figures that looked like my mom and dad, no they were my mom and dad, and according to the police officer's my mom took the bullet for my dad, but they were using enhanced guns so the bullet went through my mother to my father. I tried to tell the officials what 1 of the men looked like, I tried to tell them about the lightning scar on the upper part of his arm, but they all said I was crazy. ”

“What happened next?” I swore I heard the ant said
“I got adopted by my uncle’s family. He said that he would keep me in his house if I was a good nephew, and I was… until he raped my sister to death. So I did the only thing a good brother could… I killed him and reported it to the cops. Thanks to the CCTV in the house I could prove my sister was raped, but I was sent to a Psychological Hospital because I had “abnormal” behaviors. When I got released the first person I saw was James who was nice to me despite my records, so I do all that I can for him and he does the same.” I noticed I didn't hear any questions from the ant so I continued.
“They say all life is valuable, but what about my parents, and even my sister?. Does that mean your life is valuable?” I said as I squeezed the ant between my fingers.
“If they can't respect someone's life, why should I?”

Ancient Bones: The Changed Ones book 1 (Post-Post Apocalypse LitRPG)
Is it truly an RPG Apocalypse... if no one can see the RPG? Generations after the Fall, Mankind has achieved a balance in a world it is no longer the master of. But your prospects in this Malthusian world are limited. Johanna Milton and her friends have an answer: delve into Ancient ruins, avoid Changed beasts and mana pockets, and salvage Ancient materials, collectibles, and trinkets to sell. It pays well if you avoid the perils of the Ancient world. But when they find the skeleton of an Ancient, their lives take a strange turn. Suddenly, Talents straight out of fantasy novels become theirs. While they try to make sense of what happens, eyes turn to them, to the four who seem to break all rules. Or are they merely following them? Because, in the Beyond where he's spent 150 years waiting, one dead Ancient knows the truth. Douglas Moore has played those games often enough when he was alive to make sense of the System that rules the Changed world. He can no longer act on his own, but he has access to the Interface. And four people for which he can bring whatever it takes to face the world. Change is coming. The Changed Ones is a slow-burn litrpg fantasy trilogy (Ancient Bones, Ancient Books, Ancient Bonds) set on Earth, 150 years after the RPG Apocalypse... which mostly failed. It is an homage to the venerable ancient RPGs of the Golden Box era, the Baldur's Gates, and many others, offering adventure where You must gather your party before venturing forth. Keywords: LitRPG, realistic setting, low-leveling, post-post-apocalypse, fantasy earth, slow-burn, secondary POVs, female primary MC, team adventure, worldbuilding. Trigger warnings: casual swearing, adult innuendo (no explicit scenes whatsoever, though). Oh, and potentially a bit of politics. Bonus content: a Litrpg Easter Egg hunt. With lots of eggs across the book, some easy, some hard to find. Current score: 6/20 (20 eggs, 6 found) Publication schedule: on hold until September for book 2.

The Loyal Ones [Dark Biopunk Fantasy]
TLDR; A slave monster survives horror, war and servitude, while trying to live with himself. Thralls are a race of monstrous slave soldiers, in a universe where biological magic takes the place of technology. Centuries ago, their ancestors were desperate humans, who volunteered to be transformed for the Poison War. Today their unfortunate descendants are still soldiers and laborers. In contract law they are 'corporate wards'; slaves owned largely by arms dealers. Dally Harper starts this story as a champion cage fighter. He is one of the 'lucky' ones. It's all downhill from there. Content Warning: Explicit violence and gore, slavery, implied sexual assault. None of these are framed as positive or glorified, however they do have a strong impact on the plot and main characters.
