《Borderlines》Prologue
Advertisement
War has ravaged across America, the United States has fallen apart and the President has fled. The economy crashed and America erupted into chaos, murder and starvation began to rule within it's borders. Congress held a secret meeting underground and they finally drew up a plan to set America back on track. They would revert back to the old way of doing things, with some obvious exceptions. They voted a new king and queen to rule over America. All of the weapons were taken away from the people and the women traded in modern clothes for fancy dresses. The old world began to vanish as the new rulers took over. The first king and queen divided America in half, and then into eight sections. The king and queen placed two overseers for each section, one boy and one girl. There was only a small requirement, that the overseers be seventeen when they begin their job and nineteen when they end it. The king and queen wanted young people because their minds would not be polluted by political correctness. They would each have an opinion that would not be swayed as easily as an adults. The fresh minds would assist the king and queen in decision making and inform them about their sections. The integration began and it was a struggle between the old and new. The first king and queen died out, successfully establishing a government that remained strong during their reign. A new king and queen have now taken their places, King Marcus and Queen Lily. They have been on the throne for a three years now, but is not as simple as it may seem. The western states are beginning to rebel, threatening violence upon the crown. They swear they have been wronged by the government. This might seem true, as the East seems to be in good health, but the West is falling apart. Starvation and violence are rampant in the West, and the crown has been ignorant. Now the West is slipping through their fingers. Can peace ever be obtained or is America broken beyond repair?

The Heroic Tales of Silas Horne
In the year 1858, the system came to the world. It brought with it beings from fantasy and mythology the likes of which the world had never seen before. In the American frontier, a place already known for being a dog eat dog world the system gave bandits the capacity for untold violence, not to mention monsters and system loving fanatics hell-bent on the murder of the innocent. But are they truly so innocent? No one knows what the system is or why it came, they do know one thing though. That the world post system isn't a place for a hero. Luckily for the world, U.S Marshall Silas Horne is no such man. ----- AN: This story is a litRPG inspired by "Randidly Ghosthound" and "The New World" but after reading many such stories and finding them to be a tad samey I decided to write this in a new setting, the Wild West. Also, my release schedule is chaotic, expect at least one 1000 word chapter each day but probably like two more will also be released.

I, Mor-eldal: The Necromancer Thief
As a budding little necromancer, I soon discovered that the world of city people is complicated. When my master kicked me out of the cave, he warned me not to talk about my “dark” magic, because people here don't like the undead. I am not really an undead, I just have a skeleton hand, but it is better to be careful. Anyway, that's not my biggest worry. In the Black Dagger brotherhood, I learn a lot of things, such as illusionist magic, which turns out to be quite handy to survive in this maze of streets: in the Cat Quarter, we have thugs of all kinds that are best avoided. But we also have good people, goodhearted “gwaks”, as we say around here. Little did I know that I would soon be caught up in an infamous traffic that would entangle my life even more. With a mix of lighthearted adventure and picaresque, this story narrates the hectic life of a good-spirited street child and his companions in a medieval urban fantasy setting with some nineteenth-century influences. Updates Mondays and Fridays. This is a Creative Commons By work. It is a translation of a trilogy I wrote in Spanish between 2017 and 2018.

Mirio awakes in a strange place, surrounded by shadows, and an overwhelming hesitation about opening his eyes. A voice speaks to him in the darkness and it awakens a hidden power within him, launching him onto the path of becoming a Paladin, and towards something more. It is a semi-realistic take on being reborn and how that might feel like. It is meant to be immersive and to help you feel what it really might mean to be reborn with powers you really don't understand. The character is somewhat of a power fantasy but not outrageously so. And it is not a harem manga, but you will see some very cool things with waifu's at some point, but it must be earned!I present to you, this story for you enjoyment.Please help me make it all it can be and more.For a full size image of the cover click here
