《Mastery》Not a chapter
Advertisement
What is life under the constant pressure of insanity, how does one continue when one’s mind erodes around them. I can feel myself slipping away, year after year I lose a little bit more. The strings holding me together loosen with each failure, every time I stand back up, the mental muscles tear just a little bit more. Life has become bland, food now tasteless. The things that gave me joy, barely keep me afloat. When there is no hope in sight, when there is no more you can try. Where is the end? A cry for help is useless when no-one knows the help that is needed.
I try, yet I am tired. Tired of slogging through everyday, with a mask upon my face pretending to be okay. Tired of trying to scrounge up the latest slivers of hope, only to watch them get devoured again and again. Tired of eating, talking, thinking and most importantly, tired of trying. When is enough, does anyone know? I for one do not, I remember the golden days, the smile upon my lips. The easy laugh and the friendly disposition. I remember the will to help, the satisfaction of success. A body forged by effort, a mind hungering for progress. Then I look at the present, The body fattens with the gift of instant gratification, the muscles wear with the promise of an easy way out. The mind wastes within the comfort of technology, yet I know not the way out.
The path eludes me, the energy eludes me. I climb and I claw my way forward again and again, but there is no end, no promised reward. Nothing but yet another climb, I am exhausted, yet perhaps others rely on the shoulders they think strong. If I fall, what happens to those around me? When have you done enough, when is it time to stop living because others want you to, and when is it time to get the rest you feel you deserve? What is life when the encroaching darkness, the quiet, the whispers of comfortable silence, feel reasonable? How can one live when the only ray of light, is the promise of the deepest dark?..

7780, or: Children of a White Rider
As one war ends, another begins. The year Fastidious: 7780 marks deteriorating relations between the Siralians, devout sailors of the Ordos Canticula, and the Ardalians, matchless fire mages ruling neverending farmlands. In the shadows, Ardalian rebels successfully unlock an ancient magical gate. Their desire? A soldier, immutable, unstoppable, and enslaved. Eli Stuart and his fiancee Patricia Secord find themselves thrown into a strange world. Trapped in a land of hostile magic and alien politics, the two of them must use their newfound powers to make alliances, stop their enemies, and ultimately reunite. However, something goes wrong. In this chaos, as the world begins to unravel in foul ways, something else stirs. Something else found its way through. Author's Note: I will update this story as often as I can. I am quite busy and write this during breaks at work. This is one of those goon-squad stories with a million characters, so "dizzying" might be a good way to describe the energy. Much of what builds up to the first arc happens in the first ten chapters, which are quite long. For that reason, if you have difficulty getting through the story, I understand, though things don't really start happening until Chapter 8-10.

Ultima Deus - The Last God
After the Great War, humanity has managed to survive through the passage of the controversial NCRA act and the advent of "Project Deus", or "Project God" - The creation of a Virtual Realm, "Aeterna". Praised as the salvation of mankind and the fulfillment of its grandest ambitions by some, others revile it as a tool to enthrall and enslave the minds of humanity's most vulnerable individuals. Project Deus promises to grant divinity to the select few who rise to the highest ranks in Aeterna, effectively becoming Gods and Goddesses. Forced to enter Aeterna, one man swears vengeance by becoming the Ultima Deus, or Last God. The God to end all gods. This is his story. Please note the following: Mature content, mostly gore and gratuitous violence. No immediate ultime power-ups. This is a grindy, feisty slugfest starting off from the very bottom of the pyramid, and measured, progressive and very deliberate upgrades. UPDATE: Hiatus is over, regular chapters incoming!
