rifts and refrains

Lea was a doll created by humans, the only survivor of a super-secret project, and the only one with the power of the mysterious rifts. It robbed her of dreams, emotions, and also her death. In the year 2050, the first intergalactic gate opened. Humans saw it as a ray of hope and tried to uncover its secrets. Fifty years later, the same research opened a rift in space, causing monsters to pour out of the splits and attack humanity. An apocalypse occurred as a result of this, throwing the world into chaos. Humans gained new powers but also lost control easily. These special humans were called 'Sentinels'. The only way to get a Sentinel under control was through inhibitors or 'Guides'. But the fragile Guides could not survive for long and died early on. In response, humanity developed advanced technology to fight against these rifts and regain their lost planet. When the world was at its most desperate, an orphan of unknown origins was chosen to become a soldier to protect them all. However, the project was closed just when it reached its completion stages and the world lost it's most powerful guide. Two hundred years later, humanity was still at war with the ‘rift’ trying to live and reclaim their lost planet. And their only hope was the academy they established to train their future generations. Lea, unable to die or uncover the secrets of her birth, decided to join the academy and fight for her future. But letting go of the past would soon become a problem, especially with the powers of the rift clashing with her humanity. Having no human morals or limiters, Lea's only goal is to find herself.

It's been seven years since humanity figured out the portals. Seven years since the world's biggest corporations monopolized the technology and made billions by scouting and exploiting other habitable worlds. Seven years during which they threw close to seventy percent of the world's population into the unknown, hoping that at least some of them would reach livable dimensions. Seven years of thousands upon thousands going into rifts, only for few to come back... and usher in the riches offered by the corporations for the job well done. And today, along with his birthday and the beginning of his adulthood, it's time for Leo to gamble his life away and throw it down the probability well. //*******// - Chapter update rate: 1-2/day - Discord link: https://discord.gg/HJxY8xsPg4 (working to make it less dead) - Ko-fi: Ko-fi.com/motivatedsloth

How pity they can be; they destroyed the whole world, just erase you..., but it's fine.'' ''I will send you somewhere they won't reach, or even if they did…, they won't dare to mess around.''

"What they say in your language, the Fate is Bitch, hahahaha…" Live, my Victor; I'm waiting for you. .

A besieged planet. And an army of monsters turned into expendable toys. Elenor Altarez was a low-profile genius on the planet Nevarion, known globally as a master game developer and dubbed the "Empress of Gaming." But when history's greatest "Multi-Rift Fracture" shattered the world and unleashed billions of creatures, neither high-tech power armor nor colossal Mechas were enough to save humanity. While the elites fled in spaceships, those left behind were abandoned to their fates in underground bunkers, trapped in the midst of a bloody slaughter. In a living hell that cost her everything, Elenor refuses to watch humanity fade into silent extinction. Armed with a photographic memory and a unique device left by her grandfather—integrated directly into her nervous system—she becomes the world’s first Artificial Awakened. Her strategy is simple yet ruthless: Fight poison with poison. Ditching traditional hunter methods, Elenor leverages her high IQ to master mind control and hypnosis, turning the very nightmares hunting humanity into her personal, expendable hounds. Those who discover her work call her a psychopath—a mad scientist tearing down ethical boundaries. But in a world drained of ammunition and hope, and crushed under the weight of agonizing moral dilemmas, Elenor has only one goal: to become darkness itself to protect what remains of her family and her empire. Tactical mecha battles, a ruthless monster-taming system, and a high-stakes logistical struggle for survival await you in this dark sci-fi and Progression Fantasy epic. --- Warning: This story will contain some disturbing scenes and descriptions.

The visions. It was they that told us about our future. They said that we were the true rulers of the world, the spreaders of light, the guardians of the righteous path.  The visions gave us signs of a bright new world, one united under a single banner of light. All those who opposed us suffered and here we stand on the top, watching over the world. We thought it would last forever, but we thought wrong. The visions once again spoke to us and gave us insight, but not to glory or power. They spoke of a terrible fate. An enemy from beyond the realm, one that wishes to destroy us all, one that threatens to bring about the end of the light and usher an age of darkness. As its guardians, we could not allow that. And so we decided to strike. Our armies and our mages gather at the great rift that connects our world. No one knew what we would find. Treasures? Rich land? Savage beasts? There was only one way to find out. A/N: The story starts out pretty quick and I know people will say this is a "military p*rn" but that's only the beginning. I really do have much more planned for this book so I can make a true 'war of the worlds' type of deal. So stick around and enjoy.
