《Acheron》Afterward
Advertisement
Thank you for reading Acheron. I hope you enjoyed it. I originally meant it to be novel length, but it turned out a little shorter than expected. I believe this was my third writing project, if memory serves me right.
Technically this is a space opera sci-fi story, but in the edit I added a few lines about magic and mages, to make it a low fantasy instead, since that’s what I’m interested in writing. The tone of this is a lot different from most my other pieces—mainly in the level of profanity that I used. I was going more for a sort of rough and tough, rated R type setting. I don’t know how well I hit that mark, though.
If you would like to read anything else by me, I have several completed projects here on Royal Road. Wakiagaru is a full 436 pages. And if you think Acheron moves fast, wait until you read that! It’s a much heavier fantasy setting with a lot of Japanese themes.
Also, I’ve just uploaded the prologue to Blackwood Company. It’s a grimdark sword and sorcery novel with both low fantasy and high fantasy elements. If you’re interested, check it out and give it a follow. I’ll be releasing chapters on that every day until its completion. It’s about 25% longer than this story.
Thanks for reading.

A Nation of Distances (possibly a dystopian love story)
Michael lives in a toxic macho world with extreme male hierarchy. When he gets a weird rating that makes his place even more problematic he's forced to choose a fiancée at a Wife School, and he slowly discovers more about the other side of the great divide between the sexes in The Nation. If only the world would stop being so complicated... On the other side there's Megan, who's more interested in books than in marriage, and the unpredictable Eliza who seems to have a connection with Micheal already. Will they be able to cross the distance and become friends against all the rules of their own world, or will they just be crushed? Are positive relationships between men and women even possible? And is there a way to change the world or is that just a naive thought of a silly wimp? 'A Nation of Distances' is a slightly dystopian dialogue-heavy drama set in a low sci-fi future setting about the war between the sexes, disconnect and friendship. The genre will fluctuate in between more slice-of-life parts and soft sci-fi drama with possible romantic elements, with alternating lead and switching perspectives once more of the main characters are established. Content Warning: Certain concepts and scenes might be disturbing and/or triggering to some, even though the story itself won't be extremely heavy most of the time. Sexism as a double-edged sword destructive to both sexes is an important part of the story, but so is friendship.Note that all descriptions of persons and places are purely fictional and made up by the writer, and any resemblance with anything in the real world is a coincidence, since the real world is not supposed to be dystopian anyway!

The Order
The Order takes place within the Human-led Empire, within Glory City. In this Empire in which Magic is policed and its use is regulated, Mages are required to have a licence in order to practice Magic. The Magically inclined, Non-Human Races that have lived under Human rule lived a markedly different life to Humans, which had led to a somewhat contentious relationship. A law enforcement agency known as The Order is responsible for maintaining Magical order, and is also responsible for doling out justice to those who break the law. Consisting of the Magic using Mages, and the more technologically inclined Knights, these Agents are regarded as protectors by some, but as oppressors by many. The tale follows the exploits of Izano Zuko, a mysterious man, covered from head to toe in burn scars and wrapped in bandages. He arrives in Glory City with the backing of the City Lord, unknown abilities and secret intentions. Trouble starts up almost as soon as he arrives, and Zuko is thrown into a conflict between the Order and an unknown enemy. This is a complete book, and I plan to upload a chapter every week or so. No cover as yet.
