the weight of the tray

Wyxro Waxzi was not born ordinary. Though his memories of another life are lost, a lingering truth remains-he has lived before.

This is a story of rebirth, unfamiliar familiarity, and a soul's quiet determination to live without regret.

It does not happen every day but sometimes someone finds themselves the only heir of some distant, forgotten or even unknown relative who passed away and left a fortune or a comfortable sum for them in a will which cannot be disputed by anyone. This can lead to the great relief of someone who might have been slaving, day in and day out, just to stay alive but now they can live out their wildest dreams. Alternatively, someone could win a grand prize in the lotto and end up on top of the world, celebrating each day of their lives and not have to suffer from serious lack or poverty anymore. A person can also land up with a forgotten treasure which someone has left in a place of storage when the person takes over a storage unit. They could also end up finding a treasure in a garage which was forgotten by some stranger when they rent a place to live. Whatever the cause, this new position of owning a fortune could change a person’s life entirely. From struggling along or trudging along the previous day, to drinking champagne and making expensive online purchases the next day. They can celebrate and party for an entire week or more before their lives begin to change completely. Will they be able to handle this sudden turn of luck for the better, though? *** A sudden windfall can bring unimaginable joy, but also unforeseen challenges. Told through the intertwining lives of four characters—Suzie, George, Ella, and Lance—The Weight of Wealth is a gripping exploration of how newfound riches alter relationships, self-perceptions, and destinies. From indulging friends to avoiding opportunists, and from exhilarating highs to devastating lows, this is a story about finding balance amidst abundance. When they each begin to receive threats from unknown sources they begin to question their fate. Was it luck or a carefully constructed conspiracy?

In the scorching village of Ẹkààrò, hunger runs deeper than the cracked red earth. Iyiola known simply as Iyi is no ordinary young man. Born with water in his lungs and stars in his palms, he carries a restless hunger that food cannot fill. What he truly craves is gold a symbol of power, wealth, and escape from a life tethered by poverty. By day, Iyi drifts through the dusty streets stained by Lagos grime. By night, he dives into the flickering glow of cyber cafes, hacking and scamming his way toward a dream that slips further away with every stolen dime. When danger closes in, he flees into the rain-soaked shadows, chased not just by men but by something ancient and unseen. An enigmatic herbalist offers Iyi a cryptic choice: to leave the world he knows behind and journey into a hidden realm where true wealth is weighed not by coins or diamonds, but by the soul’s price. With a bar of black soap pulsing like a heartbeat in his hands, Iyi steps into a world both familiar and surreal a silent market where riches vanish like smoke and where he is no longer one of them. The Weight of Gold is a gripping urban fantasy that explores the price of ambition, the pull of heritage, and the perilous quest for a treasure that could cost everything. Will Iyi find the gold he seeks or lose himself chasing it?

The Weight of Borrowed Skies is a literary fantasy novel following a transmigrated soul, a young man from Earth who dies in an accident and awakens inside the body of Aldric Voss, seventeen-year-old heir to a dying border territory in a world he only half-remembers from a game he once played.

Their friendship is magnetic, unpredictable, impossible to define. Some people leave marks that never fade, and the closer Cameron gets, the harder she falls. Love. Addiction. Devotion. Destruction. The line blurs, and Cameron can’t tell if Jasmine is saving her or pulling her under. Either way, she’s never been good at letting go.

Lucian thought he was doing the right thing—fulfilling an old man's dying wish. It wasn't much, really. He deleted the old man's browser history and, as a final touch, even placed a couple of R-18 magazines in his grave for good measure. You know, to make sure the old guardian had a peaceful afterlife, free of shame. The reward for his good deed? He got killed by a ghost that very same day. No, this isn't some twisted horror story. Lucian just had the misfortune of being reborn as the worst kind of character—a terminally ill, third-rate villain. Not even a true villain, honestly. Calling him a villain would be giving him too much credit. He’s more like an extra in someone else's grand story. Now, stuck inside a body that will eventually kill him, Lucian has to figure out how to survive, dodging life-threatening situations left and right... Will he be able to make it through?

They buried the wrong soul. The boy died. Something else woke up in his place — cold, patient, and very, very hungry. In a world where magic eats your memories and old gods are still breathing under the dirt, Kaelen has no power, no name, and no one who'd mourn him. That's fine. He's done mourning too.

"Some shadows aren't cast by the sun... they are born from the people we love the most." Elara was supposed to be strong — the eldest, the example, the quiet protector of a house that never asked how she was doing. But the silence grew heavier during lockdown. Between online classes, suffocating expectations, and the pressure to never break, she forgot what it felt like to simply breathe. Mira, her younger sister, was the fire — wild, loud, and unwilling to play by anyone's rules. But when that fire was misunderstood, punished, and nearly taken away, it triggered a storm neither of them were ready for. As betrayal, loss, and rebellion rise in their home, two sisters are forced to confront a truth they’ve both been avoiding: that love alone isn’t always enough to save someone. Can two girls lost in their own shadows find the light before it's too late?

A handsome, young college student reads a webnovel his friends recommended him to read. After completing it, he goes to sleep. But when he wakes up... he finds himself in a bit of a pickle. And by that, I mean, a reality-bending, butt-clenching, heart-wrenching problem. Follow the story of Samuel Francis, an extra character that the original novel never mentioned as he steals opportunities from future villains to strengthen himself and ensure survival. But, will he ever be able to return back to Earth, to his family and friends? A few points to note before you read: 1) The main character(the reader who gets transmigrated) is a GRAVITY MAGE. Meaning, he can manipulate gravity and attack opponents with it. (That's why the name, The Extra's Weight) 2) He can also use one other type of magic, called 'Energy Magic', which is basically null-magic, or non-elemental magic. 3) This novel DOESN'T have a sentient system. Actually, the system very rarely even makes an appearance. 4) NO HAREM. 5) Actual, slow-burn romance. 6) Main Character isn't some emo villain who uses people and avoids social contact. 7) If you don't like things like entire chapters dedicated to grinding materials or rare artefacts and talismans, you won't enjoy this novel. But if you do, you'll love it. 8) There's a lot of info dump in the first few chapters. And there will be more later on. This novel is inspired by 'Novel's Extra' and 'Author's POV'. But keep in mind, the story of this novel is nothing like the two of them.

Unaware that anything extraordinary had been decided for him, he lived a below-average life. Unknown to him, he carried a weight no human was meant to bear. An ancient and powerful soul, sealed and tied to him long before he was born. A burden meant to stay hidden. A burden that could become either a blessing or a curse. As he grows, he struggles like everyone else. He trains. He fails. He fights for power he does not fully understand. While others awaken their strength through effort and mana, something stirs inside him. He can feel it, but he cannot use it. He lives in a harsh and divided world. Kingdoms fall. Families hide dangerous secrets to protect their future. Friendships are formed, and some are lost in ways that can never be replaced. When the truth finally comes to light, he must answer a question that will change everything. Was he chosen to carry the burden of the world? Or was he chosen to save it? This is a story about delayed awakening, hidden strength, and the price of fate. A journey between worlds, where destiny demands a cost and burden becomes fate.
