《Home | The Originals》Chapter 27: Resurrection
Advertisement
"Thank you all for coming. It means more than I can tell you. We gather today for the first public service of our newly reopened church. St. Anne's can finally once again be the heart of our community, where we can congregate as a people united. Here, this hour, we come together to praise god and give thanks." Father Kieran said to a whole crowd of people that came to the reopening of the church.
Angel let her pacifier fall out of her mouth but Nik quickly catches it before it could hit the floor. He silently put back in her mouth and she calmly accepts it, sucking on it silently as she stares up at me and Nik.
Nik looked on the other side of me to see Marcel staring at something behind us. "Problem?" He asked him.
Marcel looked at him. "No."
"Then pay attention. We're meant to seem like devoted parishioners." Nik told him, then we put our focus back on Father Kieran who was still giving his speech.
"And it is that hope in our hearts and with the help of many benefactors that allows us to be here today. So we gather with renewed spirit made stronger, committed to the ideals of peace and love. Amen." Kieran finished. All of the congregation repeated the last word Kieran said.

We came back to the Abattoir and met up with Elijah as he checks over the body of a now dead Papa Tunde. "Can I get you anything, brother? A magnifying glass, a pipe perhaps?" Nik mocked making me let out a laugh.
"You have a theory you like to share with us, Niklaus?" Elijah asked him.
"Back in the day, the witches wanted to send a threat, they'd just kill a chicken and leave it on your doorstep." Marcel said.

"This is more of a turkey than a chicken." I said.
"Papa Tunde defeated Rebekah with ease, almost got the two of us as well. If he was supposed to be their prize fighter, why leave him for dead in our front yard?" Nik asked out loud.
"Well, don't you all look cheery." Rebekah said as she walks towards us. "Listen to this... a girl literally exploded from a grave today as Sabine was giving her tour of the city of the dead. It was Monique Deveraux." She said gaining all of our attention.
"What?" Nik said surprised.
"The tourist thought it was part of the show, but the witches are celebrating like it's some kind of bloody miracle." She continued.
"Maybe it is. They think that all hope is lost, but now suddenly a harvest girl is resurrected." Marcel said. "This is how we're gonna get Davina back—kill the witch who took her place." He said and you can here the hopefulness in his voice.
"I have a theory about who one of them could be..." Hayley came out of a room and stood on the stairs as she lets a drawing of Celeste hang from her hand over the railing. "Celeste. I mean, it's got to be. Davina was trying to tell us. She was drawing pictures of Celeste. She was warning us that a great evil was coming." Hayley said.
It made sense. It was safe to assume that Elijah's ex was back and has been hiding ever since. We just got to find out where. "If Celeste is really back then she most have been here for a while. Davina drew this when she was still living in the attic. She could be hiding in a body or something." I said.
"First Papa Tunde returns to settle old scores. Now your murdered lover is back. This isn't witches attacking vampires. They're declaring war on us." Nik said.

My Isekai
For those not familiar with the isekai genera, this story is about a man waking up in an unknown world. The story follows his journey and life in this world, which does not only look different on the surface, but the common norms and values of this world are very alien to the modern western mindset. How will this average western person respond to such a world, and how will it change him. For those familiar with isekai, this is a western take on a predominantly Japanese story format. It draws a lot of inspiration from Japanese isekai, but it also tries to tackle a lot of tropes that might be annoying to the western mindset. The story is not written for young boys as the story tries to take a mature take on some typical clichés and assumptions made by both the typical writer and reader of the genera.

A crumbling autumn leaf
DROPED That systems comes out of nowhere, he's fine with that, it will be hard, but he can bring everyone... What do you mean we don't get to go to the tutorial? Well fuck. How did everyone else die anyway? They just needed to stay silent and not touch webs! Magic isn't even that hard, they could have survived this if they had just listened! Now his family is gone and Aki has nothing but time and the system notifications to figure out what actually happened to the rest of the world, perhaps even finding another reason to live after he finishes destroying the dungeon he spawned at from inside out. ***** This novel bases heavily on novels like Defiance of the fall, The new world and The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound. I would like to think that's it though, so please point out any sort of copying. As someone has pointed out though, i warn now that the main character is bisexual, so please, don't waste your time if that bothers you.

Dawn of the Epoch
Hunter called himself an archaeologist, but he was a modern day treasure hunter. Tiyana was a scientist devoted to her craft. They were passionate people, wholly devoted to their work. Neither of them had time for love. Neither of them could resist it when it happened. Neither of them knew that the world would need the two of them to save it from a tyrannical pre-historic overlord, his cyborg vampire paramour, and their army of mindless drudges.Dawn of the Epoch is an epic science fiction novel about dark matter, death rays, nuclear warfare, and the Large Hadron Collider, but it is also a fantasy novel about medieval warriors, alchemy, and ancient gods. Dawn of the Epoch blends fantasy with reality, bringing mythology to life today. It is also an apocalyptic thriller spanning the globe from the Pyramids of Egypt to the heart of Africa to the majesty of the Himalayas. It is an epic hybrid-genre story with intense action sequences, magic, mythology, suspenseful plot twists, countless obstacles for the protagonists to overcome, and an utterly Machiavellian supernatural villain.Testimonials:"Probably one of my favorite books I've read to date. Brilliantly complex, adoringly rendered and quizzically intense. A must read and one I plan to revisit, and share!"- Amgwatts, Wattpad Reader"This has to be one of the most original and well written novels I have had the pleasure to read, on Wattpad and in general. It was captivating, interesting, immersive and above all, fantastic. I was left in awe of the beings, history and world you created. It was never dull, dry or predicable and it was a nice change from what seems to be the ever popular teen romance with vampires or werewolves or 'bad boys that are actually romantic good boys.' In the end it was a very pleasant surprise."-IridescentLies, Wattpad Readerhttp://dawnoftheepoch.weebly.com
