solum omnium lumen

Ele se recusou a seguir alguém mais fraco do que ele — mas seguiu, e essa escolha o levou à morte. Sob uma lua vermelho-sangue, Liam Mason morreu sem arrependimentos. Ele não desejava nem o céu nem o inferno, apenas o descanso eterno. Mas a lua decidiu o contrário. Renascido como Theo, filho do Duque de Lawrence, ele encontrou algo que jamais buscara: um propósito. Em um mundo onde magia e ciência se tornaram uma única verdade, ele luta não por orgulho, mas para sobreviver. Enquanto demônios se tornam os arautos do retorno do rei e os deuses se calam, o mundo não clama mais por heróis ideais — mas por homens poderosos. Se você já se perguntou o que existe além da morte, saiba disto… pode não ser o que você imagina.

[This is a fixed version of Lumen: Anthro World. I’ve gotten personal feedback on my supporters perspective and gotten a good chunk of heavy revisions. Please let me know what you think of the story, and provide feedback.] Synopsis: In a city where midnight rewrites the rules of reality, survival is never guaranteed. The world of Lumen is inhabited by anthropomorphic beings—creatures who walk upright, speak like humans, and carry shadows that are not always their own. Only the ones who “didn’t look back” will understand the world’s secrets. By day, life follows familiar patterns. By night, especially when the clock strikes twelve, the city changes. Shadows awaken. Umbrins emerge. And those bound to the darkness are tested by forces that think, watch, and remember. Lumen: Anthro World is a dark urban fantasy about identity, transformation, and the quiet violence of choice—where shadows think, the night listens, and becoming stronger always demands something in return. Whatever the case has come, they’ll seek truth and understand what is making the world collapse.

Astraea lives under an absolute truth: everything in the cosmos has already been named, studied, and placed in its proper order. Every person is born as a fragment of a Guardian — a celestial being revealed through the eyes — and that bond shapes faith, science, status, and power alike. Then Soren is born. When his eyes open beneath the sacred Observation Lens, no color appears. No star. No light. Only absence. The Astronomer-Priest collapses after witnessing something he cannot explain, and the village understands only one thing: the child should not exist. That same night, his mother flees with him into the Faded Lands, where the Empire’s reach weakens and forgotten things learn how to survive. Years later, Soren has built the kind of life that suits him best: a vast wandering carriage to live in, shelves of books, good food when he can get it, and enough distance from the rest of the world to remain comfortable. He sells information, advices, and solutions to the rich, the desperate, and the foolish — settling merchant feuds, untangling noble scandals, exposing betrayals, and nudging private wars in one direction or another, usually without ever needing to leave his seat for long. To some, he is a fraud. To others, a genius. To the people who know better, he is someone never to corner. But information moves faster than armies. Advice can ruin houses, crown rulers, or start bloodshed that lasts for years. And the more lives Soren touches — through clients, conspiracies, dangerous favors, and the women bold enough to answer his teasing with trouble of their own — the harder it becomes to remain untouched by the chaos he keeps pretending is someone else’s problem. Because in Astraea, the most dangerous thing in the world is not always the monster that roars. Sometimes, it is the man who laughs, pours tea, gives you the answer you need— and only later realizes how much of the world has already been set in motion by his words. --- Updated Weekly ---

[Irresistible Female Lead + Beast World + 1vN + Male Rivalry Shuraba + A Record of Time Management Fails] The moment she opened her eyes, Ruan Fu transmigrated into a Beast World novel as the infertile, vicious female side character. Before her was one of the female lead's Beast Husbands, who was currently in heat. Recalling her original ending of being humiliated and dying a tragic death, Ruan Fu decisively decided to take a piece of the pie from the female lead. Thus, not only did she snatch away her men, but she also played innocent, making the top-tier males of the Beast World willingly become her protectors. However, Ruan Fu, who firmly believed in having multiple options and paths, never expected that by just crooking her finger, they would all swarm towards her.

The aloof and abstinent Dragon Clan Clan Leader blocked the front of the hall, "Fufu, let's go to that hot spring you said you wanted to soak in last night." The domineering Tiger Clan leader, bursting with raw tension, tightly gripped her hand, "A fu, I will not allow you to marry him." The aloof and tsundere cat-eared youth knelt before her: "Fufu, don't you want to touch my cat ears again?"

Three years of devotion. Three years of loving Julian with everything she had. Only to be framed for a divorce and personally sent to prison by him. "I didn't kill her," Evelyn begged. "I didn't kill the woman you love." "I don't believe you." Facing a death sentence with no one to turn to, Evelyn made the most desperate choice of her life — she threw herself at the one person Julian would never forgive. His younger brother. "Get me pregnant. Please. It's the only way I survive." Because pregnant women are not subject to the death penalty. By the time the truth surfaced and Julian realized the woman he destroyed was innocent, it was already too late. He dropped to his knees. "Eve, I was wrong. Give me one more chance." A hand caught his wrist before he could touch her. "She's already my wife, brother."
