《The Nonpareil of Resh》Excerpt from Gwyn's Journal - Zenototes
Advertisement
The last of the groups on Resh is the Zenototes. The easiest way to describe this group is simply as reptilian. They have a humanoid enough appearance but look like they are wingless dragons that began to stand on two feet.
In a way, they might not be as interesting to describe. They so closely resemble the kind of lizardfolk you see in fantasy that I have trouble describing them as anything other than that.
They are covered head to toe in scales. It seems while green certainly shows up, they can have a wide variety of colors and patterns seen in reptiles on earth. I have heard that some are able to change colors in a sort of camouflage way, but it is considered more of a gimmick as clothes do not camouflage with them.
The heads are best described as draconic. Some have horns, some have fangs, and there are plenty of other features and shapes that their heads can take. Their heads also come in a variety of elongations. While all the heads have a reptilian essence, some are flatter than others. Apparently, the flatter a Zenototes face, the uglier others see them as. However, this only applies within the Zenotote society.
Their hands have three fingers with sharp claws at the end. Their feet have three clawed toes out front and one in the back, which makes their shoes look odd. Due to this, they all walk in a manner that seems odd at first.
Their eyes are how one would expect at first, being reptilian, and their teeth are sharp. They seem like they might be rather violent, but on average they are usually calm and collected. There are exceptions of course, usually referred to as the hot-blooded of their species, but the vast majority of Zenototes I have met speak in a calm and neutral manner.

RADIANT
Unicorns are born to create miracles. This is their fate. They make no miracle the same—unicorns never agree on anything, let alone on what is worthy. Some bless forests, mountains or heavy storms. Others, the wombs of creatures. All these miracles can become dragons. Kiera warned River many times. It's easy to think yourself invincible, when you're blessed with a unicorn's magic. When River finally makes a fatal mistake, it's not him, but Kiera, who suffers the consequences. Now he must try his hardest to make things right. He either gets his unicorn back, or he dies trying. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Humanoid dragon MC, will have m/m romance. Will only be about 10 chapters long. Wrote this for a short story contest and figured I might as well share it! Leave a comment if you enjoyed! (cover art is mine too)

The arrival of the frog who was also a self-confessed God brought a variety of changes to Earth that affected the lives of every living being on the planet. Everybody felt a significant change on their bodies as if great power can be attainable even for the most ordinary people. Treasures and abilities await the arrival of their rightful owners as the "patch" that the frog brought to this world was installed and everybody has just started the game that will change their lives.
8 180Peerless Hegemon
Warning: Can be quite tearjerking and depressing (or so others say). If you are weak to that and hates that kind of thing, then this story is not for you === Ye Feng lived two lives in one lifetime. First, he basked in the light of Righteousness, becoming an idol of peace and justice. Second, he trod the mired path of the Darkest Path, becoming an object of fear and death. One lifetime, Two Identities, countless experiences, still without purpose. A meaningless existence. An empty husk. In his selfishness of wanting to fill the void in him, he became the catalyst that destroyed Reality. He now controlled everything, ultimate power, uncontestable by none. But he cast it away, to be reborn anew. With a new name and a family, his goal was to understand, his place. To understand how to no longer feel empty. With his family consisting of a Reincarnated Twin Sister and Parents with inscrutable pasts, his desire was not that of grandeur. In this lifetime, he wishes not to hold power, not to gain eternal life, nor control of everything, he only wishes to live, and hopefully look at sunrise with a smile on his face. === Disclaimer: The story focuses on the Main Character’s emotional and personality growth. He is someone who is, obviously OP in some perspectives but almost crippled in others. He is not soft and does not spare anyone because it is “Bad” so expect that there would be genocide and some bloody encounters. I want this instead of just the MC’s search for life and its complication. Where Philosophy and values exist. A story where every action has proper consequences, and not everything can be conquered with a single punch (unless it can be, no need for an unnecessary complication if it can be avoided). Further Notes: This is a story that will gradually increase in word counts and become Chunkier as it progresses and will almost never be below 2000 words, but if the word count will only lengthen the chapter at the expense of a finished tale, it could and would be cut off before 2000 mark), give it a try, it won’t disappoint (I hope). And if by chance that you like it, giving a good Rating and Review will be encouraging to me and possible readers. Schedule: Monday and Friday If you want to read ahead and/or support me to creating this story, you can do it through my Patreon (link below the next chapter button.)
