𝖕𝖊𝖆𝖗𝖑 𝖉𝖎𝖛𝖊𝖗
— it felt like the dawn of a budding love, a belly bloated with butterflies,
a rousing dread gently strumming heartstrings,
it felt like a certain hunger but it was magic made tangible
in the interval between pink twilights and sunburnt pastures,
it felt like the mirages of heat were a simple reality finally realized,
suckling the spirits with the sap of halcyon days,
it felt like the shedding of chrysalises, the exposure of essence,
the baring of souls, the rapture of it all.
a sigh gathered and soughed- a cosmic squall.
[a moment in time, book:pearl diver]
— i place my objects of anguish and my rarities of aptitude under a source of light;
just like the fruit flies showered by the mellow dusky sunlight, and look
like blown dandelions on their way to grant wishes, i too wish my
shortcomings are bestowed some ornate saving grace.

[beseeching suns, book:pearl diver]
— i am a woman of temperament mischievous,
with grazed feet that paint red the concrete,
with hands obsolete and maladroit;
does that render me the leper in the eyes of the divine?
what original sin do i carry on our shoulders, mighty as if a birthright?
passed down from my mother, and her mothers before her-
is it the word of God or is it the tale of men?
[rendered the leper, book:pearl diver]
𝖉𝖎𝖗𝖙𝖞 𝖑𝖆𝖚𝖓𝖉𝖗𝖞
— "there's an emptiness inside me growling like an empty stomach;
craving something so deliciously sinful,
something of the hubristic nature that angers Gods and men alike.
for how dare I seek after fulfillment under these hawk-eyed skies who
so sternly counteract every clump of rapture with humbling torment?
(lest we forget we are here to suffer!)
bestowing it upon our souls like a thorned wreath -a macabre paragon!
like a shadow cast by happiness, eager to consume the lingering
crumbs of joy when the light of delirium finally dies out;
so, do I dare lust for a taste of unadulterated bliss whose light casts no shadow
or contentment it is?"
[revisiting concepts, book: dirty laundry]
𝖔𝖗𝖆𝖓𝖌𝖊 𝖙𝖗𝖊𝖊𝖘
"the tears of the ethers cascading from above
sanctifying my body,
as if I'm being baptized once more,
holy water fresh and bare of blessings;
thunders chanting arcane hymnals,
violet lightning irradiating the obsucity;
there's nothing purer than that.
swaying to the rhythm of the earth
with every roar, a flimsy pirouette,
water glistening underneath the full moon
-silver, like Lethe of the underworld."
[water dance, book:orange trees]

🌙
like ancient artifacts and renaissance paintings translated into poetry. something deeply archaic yet softly vivid in the words.

The Experimental Dungeon
Having all your memories erased and be reborn as a baby without any knowledge, or giving the job of managing a Dungeon without being its Core – a very easy decision for everyone, right? Right? Right? “I really should have remembered from all those fanfics and dungeon stories that those ROBs always screw with their mortal playthings” growls Claudia as she checked her Status for the umpteenth time. “How dare that... that...that manipulative thing did this to me… And no matter what extra options he gifts me with, I will NOT use them to create a hentai dungeon or anything like that” This will not be the usual dungeon core-type story found around here, but the main difference will only be explained in chapter 4 by the Dungeon Pixie. Also – despite the warning please don’t expect any explicit scenes in this story. The warnings are there because mature themes will be mentioned (and not only because the Higher Power provided some special options), but the MC is dead set on evading those options as she sees them as traps. So there are no explicit descriptions planned at all. If that changes I will give extra warnings in the chapter title, but I plan on handling things other ways. Later chapters might go a bit farther than the simple mentions in chapter 2, but don’t expect much more. Status Update 04. April 22 Writing Buffer used up, as said before I'm switching to one chapter a week on fridays. The new cover is the second placeholder, but what I really want will have to be commissioned and take a while. At least it is better than the map-part from chapter 4 that was the first placeholder.

The Devourer
To devour is to swallow ravenously or to consume destructively. To take in greedily and to absorb everything.

The Knower
Since the beginning of time, the King has always gifted his children with a title at the age of 15. The title would impart knowledge and give them gifts to find their way in life.

It wasn't as if each title was a surprise, but some would get unique titles and become great names in the annals of history. Oli, A young elf, doesn't get his title at the age of 15 but receives news that he is being prepared for great things. The King intends to mold him into his agent on Gaia, a man who knows all things. An agent who will fight the Grot of the soul that comes with disgracing the creations of the King. With Inspiration from great works such as The Name of the Wind, By Patrick Rothfuss, or The Riftwar Saga, By Raymond E. Feist, Oli is called into the schemes of the world.

Primordial Origins
All the power in the universe, amounts to shit when you've fucked up, and there's no way to undo what has already happened. Even if your the creator of the fucking universe and all its laws and whatnot, those below you must conform to the natural laws that bind them. Even when you want to say 'fuck you' to such laws and break them, you can't because that is how you made the universe and those below you must follow it or they cease to exist in it.I'm tired of having things taken from me because of my mistakes. I've only wanted to live with those I love, but somehow in the universe I created, it decides to fuck me over. I only hope that this time it goes better. Everything seems to be going swell at the moment, but I just can't shake off that feeling that I'm about to get fucked over by myself. I hope when I get the chance to start anew amongst others, everything goes well. _____________________________________________________________________________________________Hello, this is my first time attempting to write an original story on Royal Road. I hope you'll enjoy the story as much as I will while writing it. Sorry for any plot holes/ plot armor/ cliche shit because it happens. Anyway there will definitely be foul language and probably some mature scenes, sexual or not. No idea what the release timings will be. Probably whenever I finish a chapter or two and attempted to proofread them.
