《An Angel's Vow》An Unpleasant Time (Prologue)
Advertisement
Outside I heard the feet pounding up the stairs as they checked every room.
I quickly locked the door and looked at a terrified face in the mirror. “OH god, they are already here. How did they find me! It’s almost two years ahead of schedule!” I knew I had been betrayed, and by someone close to me. With despair in my heart, I broke into rough sobs as I stared into the mirror.
‘I have to make the most of it though,’ I thought to myself, splashing cool water on my face. I turned to my computer and grabbed the hard drive nestled alongside it. Looking at its silver surface I thought back to how I’d acquired this device.
With a stiffening sigh, I walk to my bedroom to look for a place to hide it. Maybe the next generation will find it and continue my mission.
I already know I was not getting away from this one. For the things, I planned to do they would have brought the whole army here!
Opening the boards under my bed I glance at the hole in the concrete I spent hours drilling into. With a dark chuckle, I placed the hard drive into place sliding perfectly into the hole I made. I ran my fingers over the raised phoenix on the silver case with a few tears in my eyes.
“Hopefully, someone else can find it and be as moved as I was. It is about time our society ends.” Closing the lid and made sure that there was no sign that there was anything there. Eventually satisfied that they would never find it; I took off my belt and begin to pray. Something I haven’t done in a long, long time.
THAT’S WHEN THE POUNDING STARTED AGAIN. “Sir open up! Open the door immediately!”

Taking a second to look at the clock on the wall I note the upcoming time of my demise. 10:05 am what a stupid time to die.
Quickly I put the belt loop over my head and climbed onto the bed. Tying the belt to the top of the bedpost I took a deep breath and took a flying leap just as the door seemed to fall into itself as the nameless agents swarmed into the room. Jumping from the four-poster bed I hurtled towards the floor when a sudden crack resounded in the room. And all started to fade away. I hope the guy upstairs heard my prayer. With all, I did in this life he knows I needed it.

Overseer
From the nothingness I appeared. Bodiless, voiceless, ageless, I have only thoughts and emotions to guide me. My one connection to the world lies in the hearts of a small colony of lizards, just on the cusp of maturing. I reach out to them without hands, inspiring them to be more than what they are, shaping their bodies from visions of lost memories. But where do the memories come from? I am always left with more questions than answers. In my lonely shapeless existence the lizards cannot hear my words, and they cannot feel my touch, and I must wonder, do I even really exist? --- Called emotional, abstract, and beautiful by readers, this story is an observational account of a disembodied entity that has the power to influence and change a race of mildly intelligent lizard creatures. Memories of a previous life often serve as inspiration, but also generate questions as to whom the entity might have been before it became an Overseer. (presented in short chapters) (Thank you readers for getting my story into the top 5 ;u; ~

Not as it seems
Stranded inside the world he'd been writing about for years, Arwen is left at the mercy of the characters and setting he'd so lovingly created. Now trapped and powerless save for his knowledge of the secrets the world holds, he has to find his way back home. Hopefully to make it there in one piece. But things aren't going to be easy, as the further he plunges into his world, the more he will realize things aren't quite what he thought them to be. This story is a case study on a realistic approach to isekai as well as what it means to "know" someone / something, and to "KNOW" them. There will be hard themes and uncomfortable truths, and just like with real life, it will show things as they are unfiltered.

Star God
An ancient, ageless entity of magic intertwines with the essence of a tribal hero and a god is born. In a land where the worship of any entity is banned and punishable by mass-execution, the young and idealistic deity must come to terms with the ugliness of humanity, and find a way for his flock to survive, and maybe even thrive. A young man born into a mountain tribe treads the path of a hero, but he must learn the extent to which he would go to keep his people and their fledgling god safe and happy. Enemies are everywhere, and to defend their way of life, they must learn to harness the power of magic. Others are ahead of them in this regard, so they must act fast if they are to survive. A Xianxia-esque magic system, but with a focus on Western-style spellcasting and mysticism. This is more or less a deconstruction of classical fantasy and pantheons. The story focuses on two main characters; a God and a hero who serves him. Kingdom building themes are prevalent. If you like it, please remember to rate and review.

Thus we ask you, to work together in stemming the coming tide, so that humanity may remain on the victorious side. As long as humanity beliefs, there is hope.Yours truly,God of public relations
