Aliferous (adjective): having wings
The green bird clacked its beak with satisfaction.
What a week it’s been! On its journeys, the bird saw a lonely boy on a rooftop, a worried girl studying biology, a studious man admiring flowers, a gang member enjoying baking, and a happy dog meeting a new friend. How many more souls will the bird find?
The freedom of exploration, the opportunities of adventure… the green bird was certainly blessed with amazing wings.
Nestling into its warm nest, it puffed up its little feathers for a nice long nap.
A small worry plagued at the back of its mind.
Every being it had flown over during the past several days found their inspiration. They discovered something meaningful about themselves, about the world, or about another soul.
What solace has the bird found?
With a quick stretch of its little wings, the green bird blinked at the glittering earth beneath its tree.
There were many more creatures down below. They must also being searching for their meaning.
Hmm. Maybe watching others find them is the bird’s own purpose.

8 93Witches of the Night
Few know this, but, beneath our cities, in the midst of forests and mountains and even under the waters of the ocean, there is another world, a world full of magic, fantastic places, and mythological and imaginary creatures. By chance, I became aware of it, and my curiosity led me to explore it. Now, I regret not having controlled myself, not having ignored this knowledge and continued with my regular life. For, though I have seen incredible things beyond the imagination of most people, I also met the Witches of the Night and the terrible truths about the human condition and the place of humanity in the universe they brought with them. How do I get back to a normal life after everything I saw? I don't know if it's possible, but this account is an attempt to mitigate the terrible effects of this knowledge, a first step toward normalcy. Perhaps sharing everything I discovered, the simple idea that this knowledge is not only mine, will help me.

8 168It's cause I'm a genius
The story of a college kid who would go from being bored to standing at the top of all worlds. Going through the journey of wrecking the capitalist society and surviving a zombie apocalypse as well as discovering the ancient secrets to cultivation, journeying through the various different worlds and saving humanity along the way..... Just for fun. Current schedule : 3 chapters per week: actually it's gonna be a bit more as I plan to release a chapter on the even days of the month. Meaning usually there will be 3 chapters a week, there will be weeks with 4 chapters. Anyway it's just easier that way to set the timer for the chapter releases Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction and any characters or events that might resemble something in reality is a coincidence that's weirder than krillen beating jiren. Have fun
