    All about writing, reading, and music.

    Even though all my work can be read as stand alone novels, all the stuff I write is with the intention to be adapted to manga or anime someday.

    I also create an audio episode for every chapter consisting of the narration, music, and sound effects that I post on YouTube with links at the top of every chapter. All my stories, as innocent as they might seem at first, are rated R due to its depictions of:
    Violence,
    Gore,
    Nudity,
    Sex,
    Language,
    And all the other shit that makes a good story that you probably don’t want your young children reading before they’re ready.

Most do not remember the old gods. Forgotten in the annals of time, after slipping into oblivion, their grandeur reduced to whispers of myth. They forged the very fabric of existence, crafting the afterworlds, the underworlds, and the myriad realms that span the cosmos. These divine beings breathed life into the universe, summoning forth essence and birthing majestic beasts to guard their creations. Once revered as bestowers of knowledge and magic upon mortals, they are now mere murmurs of legend. Their benevolence betrayed by the capricious hand of their own creation of fate and eclipsed by the inexorable march of time.

Amidst this epoch of forgotten divinity, an insidious miasma, unseen in generations shrouds various regions of the world, birthing abominable monstrosities and perverting all that is living into grotesque aberrations. Isaac is the leader of a diverse band of mercenaries comprised of humans, demi-humans, and beastmen, who traverse the land in pursuit of quests to vanquish these encroaching horrors and to unearth the relics of a bygone era. Amidst their perilous journeys, Isaac bears the solemn duty of protecting Lizyra, a gifted young mage, and her loyal draconic companion, Nox– the last vestiges and heirs to the fallen Kingdom of Enos.

Once a bastion of harmony between humans, demi-humans, and beastmen, Enos was the capital of the continent Lesméra, until betrayed and destroyed by its allies that laid waste to its prosperity. In the wake of its destruction, the oppressive shadow of the New Valmosian Empire emerged. With its tyrannical rule and merciless subjugation of demi-humans and beastmen, it began the enslavement of all who rejected their rule while decreeing the execution of dragons and their kin. As a new tyrannical regime tightens its grip on the land, a malevolent evil awakens looming on the horizon unbeknownst to all, stirring in the shadows, threatening the very fabric of existence itself, poised to unleash chaos and despair upon the world.

Amidst the turmoil of war and the whispers of awakening ancient prophecies, Isaac and his companions find themselves embroiled in a struggle that is more than just a battle for survival – it is a testament to the enduring power of hope, courage, and sacrifice that will shape the destiny of their world. Prepare to embark on an epic journey through realms of magic and mystery, where heroes are forged in the fires of adversity and legends are etched into the fabric of time.
