Epilogue

Revised version now available! Amazon paperback, ebook, audiobook, Kobo, B&N, Google

In the war-torn land of Cyraveil, four heroes strove to overthrow an empire. By cold steel and elemental sorcery, they brought peace to a warring land on the brink of destruction. As the flames died, the realm needed strong leadership, and who better than the champions who had saved the kingdom? But when the people sought out their saviors... they vanished.

Matt, Blake, Jen, and Carl: the four mysterious companions, who together had deposed an insane ruler and saved countless lives, were gone—spirited back in a whirlwind of magic to a sleepy suburb in Mellbridge, Oregon, never to return. The friends found themselves home in the real world, exactly as they'd been the night they were taken, as if no time had passed... except only three came back.

Hi there! This was my entry for National Novel Writing Month, because why only write one series at a time? The more the merrier! (meanwhile, my keyboard bursts into flames...)

I'm also the writer of The Last Science, an ongoing low-fantasy/speculative sci-fi series. If you're familiar with that, you know what to expect here: lots of character-focused drama and dialogue, not a whole lot of traditional action. However, I'm writing a bit differently than usual here, and in a very different structure, so there should be some surprises for returning readers. I hope you enjoy it!

[Discord] — for those of you who want to hang out and chat.

Cover art (fullsize): Path of Revelation, by taenaron (Tobias Roetsch), modified by Etzoli. Normally I like to do my own cover art from scratch, but I was in a rush for the contest. Might be replaced down the line if I get time.

All Dolled Up!

★ 4.81

drechenaux

Nestled in the serene countryside, in a town called Pine Grove, lies an old house with a peculiar reputation. Charlie, a disillusioned nurse, was unaware of the history of the house when he bought it. He was simply seeking an escape from his old life and was captivated by the promise of a fresh start held within its walls. However, from the moment that Charlie steps over the threshold, strange occurrences begin to unfold. He also finds a strange porcelain doll in one of the rooms and quickly finds out that this doll, named Charlotte, is anything but an ordinary doll. Every night under the gentle gaze of the moon, she comes to life! To add to the mystery, Charlotte was not always a doll. She had been a young woman who had tragically died in the year 1906, only to wake up in the same house she had lived in all her life, only now empty, and with no idea as to what had happened to her.

Initially, Charlotte wants nothing more than to kick Charlie out of her house, but slowly grows to accept him as she begins to see him not as an intruder, but as a friend- and eventually, as a lover. But can this paranormal romance between a man and a woman turned into a doll stand the test of time?

The story is written from both Charlie's and Charlotte's point of view, with their names in bold over each section denoting whose viewpoint we are seeing for that section.

The story is now complete!

Am I The Only Male Tenant Here?

Hentaikun

When 19-year-old Sosuke Ginjo moves from his rural Hokkaido fishing village to a run-down Tokyo apartment, he expects a humble, lonely start to his new life. What he doesn't expect is a gorgeous apartment manager in her forties, a mysterious system rewards him for raising women’s "favorability," and a building seemingly filled with beautiful female tenants.
It’s a coming-of-age story with curry packets, tight jeans, and the occasional mission from a dating sim interface. One thing's for sure: Tokyo isn’t ready for this small-town guy… and neither is the all-female apartment complex he’s just moved into.

Defiant Necromancer

★ 4.9

AAHarris

Tybalt of Greentear was nothing—the discarded, illegitimate son of a noble; a low-ranked soldier, sent to butcher beastfolk in the desert for a kingdom that despised him. His only dreams: rise above his station, and take revenge on the father who cast him aside.

Then he found the Tower of Death. He entered a bitter scout with blood on his hands. He left a necromancer, wielding forbidden powers of pestilence and undeath—gifts worth execution by church or crown.

Now Tybalt plots to betray the army, raise a legion, and turn the world’s order upside down… all under the eye of a mysterious seer who knows his moves before he makes them. To succeed, he’ll have to fight old comrades, seduce enemies, master a resentful revenant, and forge alliances among monsters and outcasts—all while clawing his way toward the strength to challenge kingdoms… and gods themselves.

What to Expect:

- An RPG-like system, complete with leveling, skills, mana, and stats that correlate with character capabilities
- Slow-burn, but deep and believable, harem
- Morally gray characters
- A slowly growing legion of the dead
- Chapters ranging from around 1600-2600 words, with the beginning being a little longer to get you into the story.
