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.

Law of Shadows
Mercs are causing trouble in my city. They are hunting someone, whatever the cost. It’s not like I care that some lowly humans died, but if I don’t act now it would set a bad example. So what would the hero do? Probably he would save the victims and protect them while the enemies keep coming…Yeah, as if I would ever do something so troublesome! They aren’t calling me the demon lord for no reason. I suppose I’ll just shoot the victim and be done with it.

Getting Hard (Journey of a Tank)
Herald Stone always built tank characters in every MMORPG he played. To be immortal—that was his first Goal, a simple childhood dream. However, the turbulent realities of life put an end to his gaming days. Years passed, and Herald Stone, now having attained success and stability, was presented with the opportunity to redeem himself...to fulfill his first Goal. Trivial? Childish? Others might think so. But Herald Stone always fulfilled his Goals—every single one. No matter what. Immortality beckoned in Mother Core Online, and this time Herald Stone would answer. Choosing a long-forgotten race, hidden away in an unknown region, the journey of an immortal tank begins. This is the tale of Herald Stone...getting hard. Schedule: Mon-Wed-Fri-Sat, 10am Central/ 3pm GMT. ~1.8k-2.3k words per chapter. Also published on Scribblehub. My other ongoing story: REND | Royal Road Expect a focus on building a true tank in MMORPGs. Heavy game elements and numbers are present. But actual math will take a backseat to strategies involving skill builds and synergies that steadily become more complex while remaining understandable. The main character is atypical in LitRPGs or web novels as a whole. He might take some getting used to. Character arcs will develop over a long period. What you see now will be different as the main character changes. The start of Getting Hard is slow-paced (more so than others of the genre) and includes world-building and character development before focusing on the LitRPG.

Marauding Gods (First Draft)
The world is a dangerous place teeming with powerful creatures known as monsters. The first Dragons, the first Gods, at the top of the food chain, brought these lands the everlasting that eventually led the world to its current state. The only way humanity has found to survive is to construct a massive magical barrier that spans an entire continent: the human continent. The story follows Ronandt, a young nobleman who, despite his noble origins, has never met his parents. Except for maybe at the time of his birth. He thus finds himself without parents at the Manor Rosetta, under the close supervision of Mathilda, his nanny, and Syrus, his Butler. Follow the adventures of Ronandt, a young nobleman unlike any other, born from a very unordinary pairing and bestowed with an unique advantage over his fellow humans. Disclaimer: This novel is clearly tagged gore, and this within reason, so please keep that in mind while reading. Though the early chapter suggest that this novel is slice of life one, especially in the first 40 chapters, it must be clarified that this novel is first and foremost a progression fantasy tagged gore and grimdark.
