《CARNAGE CARNIVORE - A dragon devouring faeries...-》Jigoku or the daughter of hell

To be in dragon or to be in human. The creatures that were must sleep.And also, when we sleep, there are dreams... but also nightmaresAnd these sometimes are symbols, warnings, divination, but often, they translate a message to the dreamer and sometimes reflect the state of mind of the dreamer but also his state given the consequences of his actions.
WARNING: THIS DREAM IS A TRUE STORY, A TESTIMONY OF A REPRESENTATIVE WHO LIVES IN BRUSSELS, ENGINEER IN A FIRM OF PNEUMATIC COMPONENTS.
I was lying on the edge of the crevasse, watching the lava flow by. And as the rocks rolled by, my eyes grew heavy, lulled by the movement, the red light and the hellish heat that was beneficial to me and filled my dragon body with power and energy...
Then I was in Brussels, younger... much earlier…
A big company producing glass had called upon my services to develop intelligent double glazing. They consisted in ejecting heat like a diode in summer and capturing heat in winter.
As I was the only specialist, and at that time, in the 90's, I had to move to Brussels with my mother. We were still living in Belgium at that time before later joining our cousins who had emigrated in my youth. An aunt married a former US serviceman and went with him to start a family in the US.
Then others followed, fleeing the crisis here and the taxes. And I was about to do the same but this multinational company was established on both sides of the globe and they were also financing my research in biochemistry and genetics. They had called upon my services under the cover of a phony industrial development but, in the end, it had worked and the product had passed all the prototype expectations and I had to designate the industrial production of this new revolutionary product.

Double and triple glazing with diode effect. A thermal diode in itself.!!!
So I rented a furnished apartment and a cleaning lady came twice a week for the maintenance but also the laundry. I preferred the tranquility of an apartment to that of a hotel with all the comings and goings and the lack of comfort. And it started one day...In the morning, I would cook bacon and an omelet and sometimes onions.
There was a gas stove.
In the evening, after the day... Strange, I don't remember anything... it's as if the morning was followed by the evening immediately.
When I came back, I slumped in my sofa, in front of the stove. Tired. And I saw that the gas knobs were all turned up. I must have forgotten...The next morning... subway work sleep...When I got home at night, the knobs were all open.
"BUT IT'S NOT POSSIBLE!"
I checked the next morning that everything was in order and put a bucket of water over the kitchen door with a wire . So if someone comes in, they get sprayed. In the evening...same thing again!!! It was unbelievable. Someone was playing a joke on me... it's not possible. I then took the time to question the neighbors and next door neighbors. But the old ones were silent.
The next day, still the same! I called my mother to come and watch. In the afternoon, she took the opportunity to do some shopping and prepare a good meal for me, especially a good soup...
Mom always made them well. And in the evening, she was peeling potatoes when all of a sudden her cat started to blow abnormally.
A shrill sound that even a snake would be unable to reproduce.
Then a little girl with black hair walked through the front door, stopped in front of the stove and turned the knobs.

She looked at Mama, who was frozen with fright, the crying cat hidden between the back of the sofa and her back. She stopped and I was lying in my bed (No sense!) and then she came behind the headboard and stood on the corner and was level with my head.
All of a sudden she plunged her hand into my chest and made a guttural sound like a throat slit.
Terror overtook me and I saw myself being devoured and I began to cry and beg not to be taken away but it was a demon.
A demon that had come to take me to death, to join the dead humans, so that the cycle would be over.
I woke up sweating, at the edge of my lava lake. Would I have regrets? Was this a message or a warning?
Probably. Such an encounter does not inspire confidence and means in the dream dictionary, a time of trial. In which I must face my demons and regrets. Everything seemed so real.

Iron and Wood - A Tale Of Empire and Clans
For centuries, the Midlands had been split into fragments. A once glorious, united Empire has become a shadow of its former self. Unity has not returned, and not for the lack of trying. The greatest of these successor states were the Li Dynasty to the south, the rulers of old, and the Emerald Empire to the North, with its vibrant vitality. Unity is the end goal, and both will sacrifice anything to attain this elusive dream. For unity would surely solve the conflict that had long plagued this once prosperous continent. The Ironwood Clan was a prime player. Some would consider them the ones holding the reigns to the horse named 'Unification'. Iron and wood were the backbones of civilization; similarly, the Ironwoods were the backbones of the Northern Empire, and by extension, the people of the Midlands. Their methods, as questionable as they might be, had strengthened the North. Yet, were they enough? In the midst of it all, a young Ironwood who had lost his path must once again find his way. For the sake of his own wellbeing; for the sake of his clan; and for the sake of the Empire and its subjects. However, is he willing to sacrifice for the good of all? Is he willing to condemn some for the sake of others? Is he willing to make the right, albeit harsh, decisions? Only the heavens would know. Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, businesses, events and incidents are the products of the author’s imagination. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental. Additionally, any views and beliefs expressed by the characters are not the author's own. The story is also not an endorsement of any actions taken within. The 'profanity' and 'sexual content' warning tags are there to be safe (and to leave room for potential future changes), but for now these two things are not inside this novel. This is my take on 'cultivation', though it might be somewhat disconnected from the general idea of the genre. Release schedule: Two chapters a week. The cover was created using wombo art. While I believe that creations using the app are in the public domain, if that is not the case, I will take it down.

The Radiant War
The human world is aflame with war. Nations clash with their neighbours, while the Kelvon Empire, bulwark of the human world, stands on the brink of civil war. The plans of the enemies of mankind to destroy human civilisation, to restore their own mastery of the world, are well on the way to success. The people of Helberion have vowed to defeat those plans, though. Peace must be restored between the various peoples of mankind so that they can combine their efforts against their true enemy. Even while her country strives to avoid conquest and defeat at the hands of their traditional enemies the Carrowmen, therefore, Princess Ardria journeys to Carrow to meet with the enemy King in an almost hopeless attempt to persuade him of the truth. All her hopes rest on the assumption that he in an unwitting dupe of the true enemy, but lurking at the back of her mind is the fear that he may be all too aware of the truth, that he may have sold out humanity for the promise of personal power. If this is true, then all that awaits her at the end of her journey through fear and danger is imprisonment and the life of a hostage to be used against her father, King Leothan. The Brigadier would help her if he could, but he and Malone, his former batman, are far away, each having their own missions to try and ensure the survival of human civilisation. Having completed his latest task, the Brigadier must race to join her, to assist and protect her, but will he reach her before she arrives at the palace of the enemy King? And will the Princess still have a country to be Princess of by the time she arrives there? Because even if Helberion manages to defeat the all conquering armies of Carrow there is another, even deadlier threat waiting in the wings against which there may be no defence... This is volume three of the Ontogeny series. If you haven't read volume one, Ontogeny, and volume Two, The Electric Messiah, you should read them first.

Force Majeure: A web novel
In the Qursan Empire, the grey walls of the city press down on its subjects. It is a highly divided society which is based on the magical strength of its citizens. While the most powerful are trained as Mages, the majority of citizens use their limited skills with essence to power the city in their assigned jobs. Jano is pretty much the lowest of the low in the Qursan Empire. A Class Ten citizen forced into transitory work after having his power restricted. When he gets the opportunity to change all of that, he takes it with both hands. Please note this is an edited version of my story ‘city of captives’. It follows a similar structure but I’ve ironed out some of the kinks. If you read that version, much of this will be similar though there are some differences. This is a slow burning progression fantasy. Please expect at least two chapters per week. I love writing this story but I do have unfortunate things to deal with like work and life outside of writing. I may be able to write and edit more than that, but it will never be less!
