When the word 'beauty' is defined
Nature's bounty comes to mind,
The splendid Flora given by the Earth,
Various jewels of priceless worth,
Petals of red and leaves of green,
Every color in between,
We do all we can to let them thrive,
In return, they help us survive,
But if we exploit and harden our hearts,
Our beautiful home can never do its part.
All the toxic fumes infused in the air,
Chemicals causing plants to wither and wear,
Stunting the growth of flowers and trees,
Earth's endless treasures being destroyed and seized,
And under our oceans, it's just as horrific,
Plants wiped out from the Atlantic to the Pacific,
Glistening, sun-kissed waves that bring us peace,
A facade that hides the horrors underneath,
Marine debris cluttering the surface of the sea,
Blocking the sunlight that Flora desperately need.
The terrible effects of pollution seem to never end,
This is the message that I'm trying to send,
We all need to do what we are able,
Fight against these crimes, finally turn the tables,
No matter how little- every action lends a hand,
To improving Flora under the tides and on land,
Be cautious and keep your eyes peeled,
Don't litter, no matter how lazy you feel,
Don't follow those whose 'promises' fall flat,
Protect our home- it's as simple as that.
• Pollution is one of the biggest global killers, affecting over 100 million people. That's comparable to global diseases like malaria and HIV.
• There are 200 known 'dead zones', or areas deprived of oxygen and devoid of life (area between 1 and 70,000 km²) in the world ocean: this number has doubled every decade since 1960.
• Over 1 million seabirds and 100,000 sea mammals are killed by pollution every year.

Reaching for One's Desire: Kane's Ascension
After living most of his life as a worthless orphan, Michael Kane only desired for the chance to make something of himself in this world of monsters and magic. In a world where only wealth and power mattered, he was literally at the bottom of the food chain. He fucking hated it. Always having felt that he was destined for something greater than what was essentially a beggar’s life, Michael held hope that things would change with the arrival of the Day of Gaia’s Gift, which happened exactly halfway through the year. It was the day in which everyone that was fifteen years old was given access to the System and was given a ‘Class’ depending on your aptitude, two if you were exceptional and lucky. It was his hope that he was given at least one class worthy of becoming an Adventurer, which would help him start his path to a life of wealth, fame, luxury and pleasure. Being an orphan that never knew his parents and having no one that he cared for nor that cared for him, it was not surprising that these were Michael’s goals. Little does he know, that he is destined for even greater things.

MIRACLE CHILD: SLASH THE GODS [DxD UNIVERSE] . (MATURE CONTENT)
A world where all myth clash. Three great factions vying for supremacy. A multitude of power eyeing them from the shadow. In this world, à child was born. One so rare that his kind was basically unseen. Bestowed with a name synonymous with death, known as the uncrowned king of the church, what kind of storm will this child bring? Follow our hero as he visits the world and brings change to the society. Disclaimer: The DxD franchise does not belong to me. I am just a fan trying to bring an alternative story to a novel I like. The cover picture doesn't belong to me either. Note: This story will be mainly in the Slashdog part which is part of the DxD universe but set 4 four years prior to the event of DxD. Also, DxD is a light novel with 25 volumes + side volumes and a sequel with already 3 volumes called Shin Highschool DxD. Only the first ten volumes and some side stories have been adapted in Anime. As such many terms and characters, I use may be unknown. But don't worry I will do my best so that everyone can follow. NOTE 2: I AM currently writing another fanfic called THE TRIALS: PATH TOWARD GODHOOD. Try it. The mc is different in personality but I hope you'll like it nonetheless.
