《New chance in fantasy》Prologue: Where am I ?
Advertisement
Opening his eyes, he had trouble breathing, just the same as when you wake up sweating after a very bad dream.
Taking a moment to calm himself, trying to distinguish anything, anything at all.
The room was dark, making observation rather hard. The floor on which he was laying was cold and rather sticky.
Sitting made his head hurt, like a small hangover after a party. The room was silent, making talking to himself quite easy....and quite strange at the same time.
"Where am I ? How did I end up here? And where is ‘here’? I don't even remember my freaking name!".
His voice echoed, making the man realise the room was far larger than he thought it was.
As the sound of his voice disappeared, another sound resonated, like a crystal bell. And as this little sound came to his ears he saw in front of him, 5 or maybe 10 metres away from him, standing at the top of a flight of stairs, a crystal starting to glow.
"hmm.....I can't put my finger on it, but it reminds me of something."
The crystal, looking a lot like the ones you can see a lot in fantasy RPG, was levitating, several centimetres from the ground, glowing with a soft golden light.
Standing on his feet, the man took a step forward and couldn’t help but notice that the stickiness he felt under his hands, was spreading under his feet (why the hell was his feet bare?) even as he moved forward, he couldn't know what it was for sure, still in the shadows as he was, the light from the crystal not strong enough to see where he was.... or what he was stepping into.
His eyes were focused on the crystal, each step forward making the sound of the bell more present.

In his head, he remembered some words, like they were whispered in his ears.
"Look for a crystal.....it might help you...."
As he stood at the bottom of the stairs, he took a moment to look around.
Behind him, shadows were everywhere, however, he couldn't help himself, squinting his eyes, he thought he could distinguish a form, but it couldn't be something else than a statue or some kind of monument, the size made it impossible to be something alive.
The sound of the crystal got his attention back and he started to climb the stairs one by one. Each step he was taking, the bell sound was getting louder, as if the crystal was reacting to his presence, but it was impossible to be sure.
"It's just a big rock......a big shiny rock making a bell sound.....how the hell is it supposed to help me?"
Standing in front of the shining stone, he hesitated. Reaching out, he touched the crystal with the tip of his finger... and then his eyes rolled back has he remembered everything.

The Weather Vane
This is the first few chapter of my new book available on Amazon. The beginning is very light and fun, but more mature content comes later. From medieval fantasy to ultra high-tech to dinosaurs, The Weather Vane is a grippingly fast-paced adventure full of fun and excitement, literary flourish, and colorful characters. A group of ascendant masters find themselves in the afterlife and learn that they are newly recruited into the cosmic battle of good versus evil. Before they can join the fight, shipwreck strikes and they are lost in the ether. Stranded in a magical land beyond the reaches of the universe, The Weather Vane follows our crew of heroes as they try to piece things back together even while The Dark Lord’s forces march, maraud, and murder at every turn. Themes of darkness chase the overall levity of The Weather Vane which suffers not a lull as the climax begins near the beginning of the book and drives on through the greatly satisfying finish. The most epic of epics.

Bleen Fada - The Legendary Pathfinder
It had been decades since dreams started to kill. Today, it's finally over.Mahon was once a general and an impressive warrior. In his dreams. In Nightmare. There, he put an end to the war that plagued mankind for decades. In the real world, however, the war has been raging for millenia, and Mahon is weak, his body frail from all his years spent dream-fighting. But it's time for a new beginning. In a world he knows almost nothing about, he will struggle to climb back to power, a necessity if he wants to achieve his goal. But he doesn’t lack willpower. And he already reached the highest ranks before. Who is to say he can’t do it again? That is, if the Fada let it be… This story takes place in a medieval fantasy world. Swords and schemes are the common ways to assert your place among the powerful. This story follows Mahon on his journey back to power. Not a simple one, as he will uncover some of the deepest mysteries that had been buried deep down along the ages. As of now, 98% of my chapters are through Mahon’s PoV and I want to keep it that way. There will be no unending PoV swaps for multiple chapters. Although war/conflict is one of the main themes, it’s not really a story about war. Instead, expect fights, plots, foreshadowing, progression and adventure from these chapters. It’s my first time publishing a book, and English is not my native language. I hope you will enjoy the story and that you’ll be indulgent enough to point out my mistakes with kindness. I wish to grow as a better writer and provide something that will make you cheer for, and shiver in anticipation. As long as you’re not, it means there is something to improve. Note: It's a slow progression fantasy, and some have raised complaints about the depressing tones and slowness in some of the first chapters. Rest assured, it soon disappears as Mahon progresses. Release schedule : M/W/F at 6:12 am GMT+2
