《Story Ideas and Beginnings》Earthen island Goddess
Advertisement
Slumbering underneath the somewhat cold and at the same time warm earth of a big island deep in the ocean, is being who´s form remains undefined.
It is unclear where the earth ends and the being begins, but not only is its body in this state, its mind and soul are too.
One with the island and some of the surrounding ocean floor, this being sleeps peaceful for thousands of years undisturbed by anything.
Day for day it breaths together with the trees and plants above, eats with the animals roaming the island and enjoys the calmness of live.
This goes on till one fateful day when a new being of similar nature arrives on the island from a faraway place.
With the presence of the new being powerful winds stir on and around the island till they escalate into a full-blown storm, which shakes mountains, rips trees out of the ground and blows animals into the sky.
The destruction and death caused by this storm which was created by the presence of the new being, nudge the deeply slumbering being awake, even if only slightly.
With low rumbling that was drowned out by the new beings raging storm, the consciousness of the previous sleeping being slowly starts to gather together from all over the island and even the ocean floor around it.
The more of the once spread out consciousness returns to its still slumbering body, the stronger the shaking of the ground became, and the once low rumbling sound grew loud enough to rival thunderclaps.
Once half of the being consciousness was restored, it released a terrifying roar which shook the already damaged island even future, creating unimaginable deep ravines and turning valleys into new mountains.
The new being which came from beyond the ocean and is currently floating atop of the highest mountain of the island, turns its head in the direction of the roar.

It had the form of beautiful bright blue, giant bird with gusts of strong wind carrying it and eyes that seem to contain a terrifying storm with occasional lighting.
A moment after the bird heard the roar coming from the center of the island a formless pressure descends upon the whole island and surrounding sea.
The pressure felt like an echo of the previous roar, reverberated through its body, and dispersing the raging storm on the island in but a moment.
The beautiful bird was immediately stricken with fear, every instincts screams at it to flee as far as possible from this island.
Only with great difficulty did the blue bird manage to resist them and instead lands on a mountain nearby where he lowers his head as low as he could.
From what it understood of the current situation, it intrude into the resting ground of an extremely old and powerful being, so if it were to flee it would only enrage the being more and it heavily doubts that it could out run this being, so the bird instead decided to apologize and admit its fault in hopes of forgiveness.
With her head lowered to the ground, the giant bright blue bird releases its intensions of apologizing and acceptance of punishment.
The concept of using words or language to communicate was unneeded for being like them that can transmit intentions and knowledge through telepathic means.
Waiting silently for the reaction of the other being, the giant blue bird laments in her head about her current situation.
She just managed to flee from her old home which was invaded by another pantheon of deities, and run off into the unknown ocean in hopes to find a new place to settle, only to come across this island with the hidden monster within.

Just as she finished her line of thought, the other being forcefully creates a mental link between them, through which it tells the giant blue bird that it will forgive it as long as it does not do something like this again.
Also, she was free to go, but in the case that she wants to remain on the island, she will have to make sure that there is never to less or to much rain, no storms ravage the land and inform her when there is a situation with which she couldn't deal.

Memories of the Fall
This is a story about two sisters, Jun Arai and Jun Sana, and their friends, Juni, Ling and Shu who make their living as members of the Hunter Bureau, an organisation dedicated to dealing with the terrifying flora and fauna endemic to their home Great World. When they get dragged into a grand scheme to unpick the ancient secrets entombed within one its foremost forbidden zones in their world, the Yin Eclipse Mountains, they must all try to survive the dark machinations, eldritch undercurrents and the echoes of a terrible conflict trying to re-emerge into an unsuspecting cosmos that had rather hoped it was done with that kind of thing a few eras hence. So please come join Arai, Sana, Juni, Ling, Shu and the rest of my cast as they journey through strange lands, meet all kinds of unusual beings and unravel some of the power and glory of a land time tried very hard to forget. I promise terrifying mushrooms, angry snakes, confused gods, even more confused cultivators and much, much more! Update schedule: (02/6/2022) As chapters are done, sorry. Progress: Currently up to old chapter 13-15. Chapter 24(or 25)/13, Parts 1 & 2 will be the end of the rework. Part 2 has been temporarily delayed due to me getting a frozen shoulder in the middle of June, which has been very slow to properly clear up. It is getting better, though, but Shoulder/neck is the worst set of muscles to have issues with ;( You can currently pick up most story threads after the rewritten chapters, starting from chapter 13-14 (old) Genre-wise, this is a bit hard to pin down. It's technically a Xianxia (because cultivators!), but it also veers towards Xuanhuan and has more traditional High Fantasy elements and a bit of Gods and Monsters and All Myths Are (on some levels) Valid. It also has a fairly large, ensemble cast, so if multiple point's of view are not your thing I am sorry. It won't ever really be considered 'grimdark' by any real measure of that definition but it does go to some complicated and fairly places dark occasionally, which I will note in author pre-chapter notes when expedient!. About the Author I mainly write fiction for my own hobby, it makes a nice change from academic scribbling! I started writing this quite a number of years ago. It has grown somewhat organically out of a bunch of different interests in all kinds of Mythology, World Building, Drawing Maps, Archaeology, Anthropology, History and Epic Fantasy fiction into what it is today. So I hope you enjoy the story and thanks for reading! Other stuff The cover is made by the author, using photos taken by the author. There is a Discord Server- Please come and chat, but beware of spoilers.
