《What the Green Bird Sees》Peiskos

Peiskos (noun): enjoyment of the warmth of a fireplace
His hands were trembling so hard that the match fell out of his frozen fingers twice before he could light it.
A spark. Then another.
Soon, a small wispy flame slowly flickered to life.
Dragging what seemed like a million pounds of steel across the ground, he strenuously scooted his body closer to the fire.
His numb limbs didn’t sense the feeble warmth at all, yet his heart felt mysteriously comforted.
It had been a grand adventure.
In a sense, he had found the true freedom that he’d always dreamed of.
In school, his existence was dictated by a little bell. At work, his life was in the hands of another common man. What was significant about this eternal cycle of powerlessness? He lived a meaningless life of conformity, and he finally chose to leave it behind.
And now, he laid motionlessly in the snow, succumbing to the Alaskan cold alongside his dying fire.
Coming to Alaska was his choice. Dying in Alaska was the result of his choice. However, his heart was free from regret.
He had no power over his life, but he at least chose how he died.

[IMPORTANT] I'm currently placing this novel on an indefinite hiatus. I want to get back to it, but I just don't really have the time. Also, if I do ever get back to writing this, I'll be rewriting the entire story with better planning and plot. You can read what's published if you want. Just know it stops at a pretty awkward place :/ *** What could you do if you found out you could time travel—no catches and no drawbacks?Go back in time to fix a mistake? Pass the night in a second? Run through the finish line as fast as a car?Damien had the ability to do all this and more, but before he could even learn to control this power, he was introduced to the second temporal dimension. Thrown through several worlds of the multiverse, he finds that in reality, anybody could manipulate time.This is the story of a boy from a world where time travel is only a fantasy, the travels of an adventurer who visited thousands of worlds, and the growth of the first being who obtained control of all time.

A powerful family desperate to maintain its position at any cost meddles in the domain of the divine by designing and developing a new race called Homunculi. These creations are honed into brutal weapons to fuel their grand ambitions and keep their secrets hidden.Fresh eyes take in this world as a new Homunculus awakens. Its conditioning and training take an unexpected twist as it develops abilities and skills different from the others of its kind. -------------------- Surrounded by manufactured warriors who are incredibly powerful from day one, our MC will find himself lacking in innate skills and knowledge. Very much a weak to strong story. There is definitely action and adventure within, but expect a slow start that is focused on character growth, building tension, unraveling conspiracies, while learning about a new magical world. Some cooking and some daydreaming within. (I see you slice of life) --------- WIP art by Katie Z.

The Demon plane is the home to seven races of demons, while the Mortal plane is home to the Human race and their bizarre mutations and magical skills.The Mortal plane is a plane where countless humans live in densely populated cities. The complete opposite to the sparse populations of the Demon plane. Just as much as the Demons have powers, there are some mortals who have powers too. Mutations that create powerful Humans called Vigors as well as magic users who can cast spells or traverse the two planes.The Demon plane is ruled over by seven Demon lords and a king, while the other, less powerful demons fall into line behind these Demon lords. These Demon lords grant powers to their subjects, creating the seven demon races. All Demons can move between the two planes, but most choose not to due to their hatred of the Human race, but some do for a single thing. To have children, for Demons can only be male.
