Tattered memory,
Implanted, rooted,
Deep within the vault,
It springs forward,
Pressing to be beheld.
And I can't place my finger
On it. The way it makes me
Shudder. Shapes seen,
Lines traced. But picture
Not formed. Lingering
There but not wholly.
Should I be emotional?
This aimless feeling,
Familiar but on the edge
Of collapsing forgotten.
It's on the tip of my tongue.
Words dragged out
To nothing. Bothered
By this faded thought.

A Dungeon Core
So I died, and then I was allowed to live again. Apparantly though, gods don't really understand what 'live' means because I am now a crystal in a cave, A Dungeon Core. Whatever, I don't really mind. A Core is immortal, at least as long as it isn't killed- and that means I have an infinite amount of time to restore my old body. So I will dig in, build my defenses, and dedicate myself to recovering my body and giving it the power of the Core I have become. But it doesn't seem like I will be left alone by the world around me...
8 62A Prose of Years
For decades, spiritualist Evert Kallstrom and his team have joined in humanity’s millennia-long fight against the beasts. Wielding their weapons and their ki, they fought and killed these great threats to civilization. And yet, despite their efforts, humanity was losing traction in the war. In the last fifty years alone, more cities had been overrun than in all of known history. While most thought the great beasts natural, a few knew the terrible truth. They were the product of a dark lord, who desired neither fame nor wealth nor power. Instead, his sole purpose was the genocide of humanity. While their peers dithered, a small faction of the strongest mankind had to offer—including Evert Kallstrom and his team—set out towards the Deadlands to find and confront this dark lord. After weeks of travel, twenty-one spiritualists found themselves approaching an ancient fortress wherein rested a being known only as the Eastern Guardian. All they found was death. But death has other plans for Evert. Evert bolts awake in his 16 year old body near his hometown, decades in the past. He is confused, poor and weak. But with grit, sweat, and years of experience, he won't let the future repeat itself. That level of strength won't be enough by itself (it wasn’t last time) and victory is hardly assured (he’ll need to reach farther and higher than he ever did), but Evert refuses to squander a second chance. [Other tags: First Person POV, Hard Magic, Faulty Memory] Volume 1 is complete and has been fully released. My current intention is not to write any sequel volumes. That said, I have also released appendices (SPOILERS) that cover the worldbuilding and future story-that-never-was. Comments suggesting fixes for grammar, misspellings, etc. appreciated. Note: If you came here from Candlelit Lives, these stories have nothing in common.
8 148MINDMEN
Aru-menan was the death goddess, a revered warrior and step daughter of Zeto the mighty, the fire god.

Things change when she becomes a mindman and it gets worse when she decides to use these powers to save her city. She's running back into the life she was kicked out of.
8 174Fall of the Supreme
What is it that you desire? Longevity? Strength? A Holy Lord has it all, but at what price? None of them really knows. But they know that their fate is in the hands of someone else. Most of them got used to that, their lives controlled by some being they’ve never even seen. However, one of them is not willing to pay the price of being a slave. One day, he encountered a dark energy that changed him. It merged with him. Now, with his newly found powers he was granted the opportunity to retaliate. All he desires is to find answers and get in control of his own fate. No matter what he has to sacrifice, no matter how much blood he has to spill, even if it means he has to create a pile of corpses, or become the devil himself. To him, the price of freedom is all but expensive. Basically a story with an anti-hero protagonist in a dark fantasy, medieval setting.
8 255It Sucks Being a Side Character
Beat the bad guy, save the day, get the girl. These are the three steps of success every good Hero strives for. But for Lee, those three things are an impossible bucket list. For a side character, there's no beating the bad guy, there's no saving the day, and there's definitely no getting the girl!As a side character in a typical Shonen story, all that awaits Lee is loss, cliches, filler arcs, and a whole lot of cheering the protagonist along from the sidelines.Can Lee change his destiny in a group full of walking tropes? Or will he be stuck watching from the sidelines? Only one thing is for sure, it sucks being a side character!
