Descendants of Gibbous

Timcarvie
Waking up with new magical abilities and access to a magical world is everyone’s dream right? But when it comes along with negative fame and the realization that you not only helped in the killing of the inhabitants only hope for peace when you were little but also your parents, who among us are strong enough to rise from the ashes of denial and try to vindicate their name? *********************************** Well-mannered and orphaned Damien Amaris wants nothing more than a peaceful and happy life with his only family and sister, Ahara. But after a series of fateful events that lead to his “awakening”, he discovers that is but a far-fetched daydream. His sister is a vampire warrior whose mission is to eliminate the inhabitants of their land who attack humans to feast on and sell their blood or flesh. Be it vampires, wizards, or beasts, she kills them all. That is how she’s been able to feed the two of them all along because the Ministry of Gibbous pays brave soldiers like her a hefty amount of money since the majority of them quit after their strongest commander, the Numen, died. Damien soon comes into contact with Gibbous, a magical world within the normal world he’s known since young. Once there, he learns things about himself he didn’t even think he’d ever hear from another person, and he soon discovers there’s a way to assist his sister—by becoming a warrior himself. Filled with determination, he is enrolled in a school set for those who have awakened, and thus, he begins his training. But what starts as a simple way of learning soon turns into something deeper and menacing—and he’s in the middle of it all. With a blurry past and powers that keep ruining every progress he makes, not to mention a bloody villain fishing for any chance of revenge against him, the quiet life he wanted so badly is slowly slipping away from him until it’s nothing but a small dot of light in the darkness surrounding him. Will his determination and love for his sister and a peaceful life be able to fuel him until the end? Or will the blackhole swallow all his dreams along with him? Follow along the adventures of young Damien as he navigates around Gibbous for answers only he can fish for himself.

Entertainment: Starting as a Succubus, Taking Hollywood by Storm

Martin was a succubus who perished at the hands of the Sun God, struck down by a single divine arrow during the epic war between gods and demons. Meanwhile, Martin, a Ph.D. in literature and a seasoned movie enthusiast, lost his life in a car accident in August 2023. By some cosmic twist of fate, the souls of the two Martins converged within the chaotic currents of time and space, merging and eventually settling in the body of an eleven-year-old boy named Martin Myers, living in Los Angeles in 1996. A world without spiritual energy? Fortunately, as a succubus, I don’t need spiritual energy to cultivate; all I need is the essence of desire. Emotions—joy, anger, sorrow, and excitement—are all desires. As long as these emotions are directed at me, they can become fuel for my growth. Alright, let’s see what reliable ways exist in this world to stir people’s emotions en masse. Hmm, becoming a writer—sounds promising; and music, that could work too; but wow, Hollywood movies! They have a global reach; this is perfect! What’s that term again? Right—"Idea Recycler.” I’ll start with writing, but the ultimate goal is to become an international movie star. Acting skills, you say? Don’t worry—I’m a succubus, after all! Disclaimer: I do not own the rights to this novel.

A Villain’s Guide to Saving the World

-Participating in WSA 2025- In a world where fate is dictated by prophecy, heroes are chosen by the gods, and Dark Lords are doomed to fall… Lucian Draeven refuses to play along. Once feared as the greatest Dark Lord in history, Lucian had the world under his iron rule—until the so-called Chosen Hero struck him down in a blinding flash of divine justice. The kingdoms cheered. The world rejoiced. Too bad Lucian isn’t actually dead. Having faked his demise and gone into hiding, Lucian watches from the shadows as a new Dark Lord rises, more reckless and incompetent than ever. Worse, the gods have selected another overly enthusiastic, sword-swinging Chosen Hero to bring “peace” once again. The problem? Neither of them have a clue how to actually rule the world. As kingdoms crumble, wars break out, and the balance of power teeters on the edge of collapse, Lucian comes to a horrifying realization: If the world is going to survive, then it’s up to him—the so-called villain—to secretly fix everything from the shadows. But there's just one little catch… Lucian’s legendary Dominions are still sealed, and the only way to regain his strength is by playing the role of a villain once more—spreading fear, manipulating his enemies, and pulling the strings behind the scenes. Now, as the oblivious Hero and foolish new Dark Lord battle it out, neither realizes that the true mastermind is watching their every move. Because if the world wants a villain… Then Lucian will be the greatest villain it has ever seen.
