"History says nations are built on speeches and slogans. History is wrong." "Nations are built on plumbing, supply chains, and systems." Bilal, a cynical game developer from 2024, knows exactly how the “game” of British India ends—with the fire and blood of 1947. When he wakes up inside the mind of Muhammad Ali Jinnah (Father of The Nation) in 1930, he realizes that following the historical script is a death sentence for millions. The Quaid-e-Azam (Father of The Nation) of the textbooks—the distant, immaculate lawyer—needs a patch. Forming an unlikely partnership, the modern systems thinker and the Edwardian barrister abandon the politics of London and Delhi. Instead, they retreat to the forgotten backwaters of Montgomery to attempt something dangerous: Project Sandalbar. Their goal is not rebellion—but construction. To build a functioning prototype state inside the belly of the British Empire. Armed with modern knowledge of logistics, communication networks, and resource management—wielded through Jinnah’s razor-sharp legal mind—they begin engineering a sanctuary against the coming storm. The Mission: Turn a dust-bowl estate into a self-sustaining fortress. The Tools: Sanitation protocols, radio networks, cooperative economics, and a militia disguised as farm guards. The Obstacles: Feudal lords, imperial suspicion, religious extremism, and the ticking clock of history. They are not fighting for independence. They are building a lifeboat. Can a game developer and a lawyer “mod” the operating system of the Raj before the server crashes?

Dr. Elaine Kastor, a brilliant yet reclusive theoretical physicist, never imagined her life’s work would end her life. In a catastrophic experiment that defied explanation, Elaine’s death marked the beginning of a far stranger story. Awakening in a fragmented multiverse held together by the mysterious Veilshard Nexus—an ancient, sentient system governing countless realms—Elaine finds herself bound to a new existence, both gifted and cursed. Inhabiting a foreign body with inexplicable abilities, Elaine discovers she is now reliant on the Nexus to survive. This vast, enigmatic network assigns her cryptic “Divergence Mandates”—missions that tether her to the Nexus’s fractured worlds, each brimming with political intrigue, arcane constructs, and alien logic. Her first destination, Liradelle, is a medieval realm where magic and ambition clash, yet hidden beneath its complexity lie whispers of a far-reaching conspiracy connected to the Nexus itself. But Elaine isn’t the only one entangled in the Nexus’s chaotic threads. Rivan, a reserved wanderer with an unexplainable bond to the fractures, and Ardyn, a fierce warrior caught between loyalty and survival, are also players in this cosmic game. Together, their paths converge, revealing threads of betrayal woven by the Nexus’s creators—the Custodians—who shattered their own creation in a misguided bid for control. As Elaine grapples with the rules of her rebirth, she discovers the fractures are alive, their chaotic energy holding memories, purpose, and hidden dangers. To unravel the truth of her resurrection, she must master not only the Nexus’s arcane class systems and magical sciences but also the unstable mechanics of the Multiform Divergence, an ultimate skill that bridges fractured realities and alters the laws of existence itself. However, the Nexus is no benevolent guide. Its secrets are veiled in riddles, and its stability depends on sacrifices that demand more than strength or intellect. Elaine’s memories grow increasingly unreliable, leaving her to question whether she is a pawn in the Nexus’s game—or a catalyst for its unraveling. In this sprawling journey of survival, power, and identity, every step through the fractures leads Elaine, Rivan, and Ardyn closer to a singular truth: the Nexus doesn’t simply connect worlds—it redefines the meaning of existence. But at what cost? Combining intricate worldbuilding, relentless intrigue, and high-concept fantasy, Veilshard Nexus immerses readers in a multiverse alive with questions of purpose, identity, and the fragile balance between chaos and control.

Aaron was the lone survivor of a terrorist attack launched by powerful AI-controlled intelligent robots. Although he survived, he lost his hand and heart, along with his memories, during the process. Thankfully, he was picked up and “repaired” by a good-willed scientist-cum-doctor. However, peace didn’t last long. As soon as he regained consciousness, another attack led by intelligent robots came. With death and gore scattered all over, Aaron, with the guidance of an intelligent AI assistant, Clara, escaped from the laboratory. As he embarks on a treacherous journey for peace and to rediscover his lost identity, he becomes the leader of an eclectic group of survivors. Serena, a powerful arcane user and Aaron’s beautiful friend; Max, a green-haired individual seemingly without purpose; and a bandit searching for his long-lost sister, among others. Join him on a mission of unparalleled danger!

Aaron San Agustin was never meant to be noticed. Born in the rural city of Crestfall, where secrets weigh heavier than the soil, he grew up under the shadow of poverty, fractured loyalties, and a family bound by silence. Burdened by the emotional wreckage of a complicated upbringing, Aaron made a quiet decision: to walk away from his past and build a life of quiet endurance in Velmont City—a place that promised opportunity, but offered only relentless struggle. By day, he worked tirelessly to make ends meet, sending money back home to his aunt, Coleen, who kept what little remained of his family afloat. By night, he fought the quiet war of loneliness, rejection, and humiliation—particularly from Elena Layne Fonte’s affluent family, who saw him as nothing more than a poor farm boy clinging to their daughter’s light. But through it all, Elena believed in him. Where others saw nothing, she saw purpose. Her love became his only sanctuary. Then, fate intervened. In a moment of distracted frustration, Aaron mistakenly invested $10,000—nearly all he had—into an obscure digital currency on his outdated smartphone. Ridiculed for his recklessness, he braced for collapse. But the currency was BITX, and within years, its meteoric rise transformed him from invisible to invaluable. Not only did Aaron become one of its largest shareholders, but he was also selected—by means unknown—to receive the Black Diamond Card: a mysterious, elite pass granting him unlimited access to networks of influence, power, and wealth few could imagine. With quiet precision and the same humility that once made him forgettable, Aaron began to reshape his life—and the world around him. But power brings new shadows, and not everyone welcomes his rise. Old secrets from Crestfall stir, dangerous eyes begin to watch, and the quiet farm boy no one believed in becomes a force that neither the elite nor the corrupt can ignore. From forgotten to formidable, Aaron San Agustin is a story of quiet rebellion, impossible odds, and the uncanny twist of destiny that turns broken beginnings into legacies.

A sneak peak of a third person narrative coming up!

Fu Xiaoxiao transmigrates into a book and immediately faces the crisis of being sent to the countryside. As the unloved middle child, her younger sister is the one meant to go — but her mother transfers her job to the sister instead. A disaster of a start. To avoid being sent away, she has to marry within seven days. She meets a few ordinary men and decides she'd rather go to the countryside. Then she runs into a neighbor who's also looking for a spouse — and his conditions are surprisingly good. A dowry of three hundred? Bicycles and a radio? Just take care of the kids, and separate rooms are fine? The others may pass, but she won't. Every day is a battle of wits with the two kids. Life is eventful, she gets a salary every month, and the boss is never home. Absolutely perfect. Except... wasn't this big shot supposed to be infertile? Then why does he keep strutting around naked in front of her? She has professional ethics. She won't be seduced by a good body. Hmph. Men only slow down her sword swing. Lu Feng grits his teeth at Fu Xiaoxiao, who remains completely unmoved by his countless attempts to seduce her, and traps her in his arms. "Boss, let's talk this through. I know forty a month is a bit much — how about... five less?" Trapped in his embrace, Fu Xiaoxiao thinks he's unhappy with her high salary and starts bargaining. "I'm giving myself to you for free." Lu Feng grinds out through clenched teeth. This woman has no heart. "...Can I say no?" Fu Xiaoxiao swallows, staring at the washboard abs so close. "Such a good deal — are you sure you don't want it?" Lu Feng squints, tempting her. "Fine." A fool turns down a bargain.
