They took me to the room where our drawings were being preserved. I saw mine, of me when I was a little girl. I closed my eyes and I remembered that day,I remember looking into my brother's eyes, I opened my eyes again as Mr. Lovett started to talk openly"Louis XVI wore a fabulous stone that was...called the Blue Diamond of the Crown...which disappeared in 1792...about the same time old Louis lost everything from the neck up"
He took out a photo with the same shape as the necklace that Rose wore on the Titanic and he held it to Rose's drawing"The theory goes that the crown diamond was chopped,too. Recut into a heart-like shape that became known as...the Heart of the Ocean. Today it would be worth more than the Hope Diamond" I remembered what Rose told me about the blue diamond necklace that Cal gave her as an engagement present"It was a dreadful,heavy thing,Rose only wore it this once"
Lizzy looked at the drawing of me as a little girl"You actually think this is you,Nana?" Me:"It is me,dear. Wasn't I adorable? Wasn't Rose a dish?" Everyone giggled. Brock"I tracked it down through insurance records. An old claim that was settled under terms of absolute secrecy. Can you tell me who the claimant was,Jackie?" I thought for a short moment"I should imagine someone named Hockley" Brock"Nathan Hockley,that's right. Pittsburgh steel tycoon. The claim was for a diamond necklace his son...Caledon bought his fiancée;Rose. A week before he sailed on Titanic. And it was filed right after the sinking. So the diamond had to have gone down with the ship. You see the date?"
Lizzie read the date off of Rose's drawing"April 14,1912" she looked back at Lewis"Which means if your grandmother is who she says she is. Rose was wearing the diamond the day the Titanic sank" Brock"And that makes you my new best friend" I did see a bunch of objects. Brock said"These are some things from Rose's stateroom"

I picked up the mirror"This was hers" I smiled at my granddaughter"How extraordinary. And it looks the same as it did the last time I saw it" I turned it and I looked at myself in its reflection"the reflection has changed a bit" I put the mirror down and I picked up a butterfly hair clip that belonged to Rose and I held it close to me. Brock knelt down beside me"Are you ready to go back to Titanic?" I nodded my head,yes.

The Titanic Fanatic
John Doe is a relatively intelligent high school junior. He is in all the super advanced classes, gets straight A's, and to top it off, he is pretty lazy as well. However, he is quite cocky about it and has the physical strength to back it up. Needless to say, he is the target of lots of jealousy in school. No one dares to bully him, because THAT is more or less a metaphorical death wish, but he is the center of lots of gossip and attention. He has a good life. Fortunately for John, his school is the largest in the world and so there were still many students who didn't know about him to annoy him. Unfortunately for John, he attracted the attention of a certain student who seems friendly enough but definitely has ulterior motives. This student will show John something that will change his life forever... **No, this is not a romance(yet at least) and the "certain student" is a guy lol so don't get any ideas** Author's Message: Hey, everyone. I was a big reader on RoyalRoadL for three years now, but I made an account recently because I felt like writing something. This story is based on Greek Mythology but I will make up and change a lot of it however I want(note the "based"). This is my first story and I am very busy(I'm a high school junior like John lol) so I will have lots of writer's block and erratic updates. Content Warning-Keeping those tags just in case as this probably won't be a baby friendly story(jk babies r kewl, just not here)-

Lord of cauldrons
A man reincarnated to a world where cultivation ruled supreme. One were even practices like human cauldrons and dual cultivation was commonplace and a part of the culture. What was not commonplace was treating these cauldrons with any ounce of respect or affection. These cauldrons were like pills or potions to be used and consumed or thrown away. They were often just a stepping stone in one's immortal path. One man thought, "What if they were my immortal path." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My chinese knowledge is limited to wuxia/xianxia books and cultivator games and I will only follow it loosely, I have my own cultivation system which will be basis for this story The reason I am writing this is because I have yet to find a dual cultivation story that has something I really wanted to read. Using the 'cauldrons' like Pokémon and the 'cauldrons' being the main source of power. I will update this at a minimum of once per week.
