"Caged bird, who wishes to fly high, are you awake?" "Ugh… Where?" I mumbled, the words violently tearing from my throat as searing pain rippled through my veins. "Don't scream, little bird. You have no need for a voice now that I'm here." Once a proud young man, his past stripped away and his true name lost, Evernight awakens in a world where divine light hides an endless void of despair. In this twisted realm of power, monsters, and forgotten gods, survival demands sacrifice. Humanity is a weakness. Mercy is a death sentence. To rise in this hellscape, Evernight must abandon the man he once was and embrace the only two paths that remain. Order. Or Decay. Angelic Ascension follows the tale of Evernight, a Pseudo Deity who has been forced into an ongoing war between two deities fighting for supremacy. But as he travels further, he begins to realise it isn't so simple as one side is bad and the other good. Both are corrupted to the brink, and as he fights for the freedom of all angels under Order's Tyranny. A single thought begins to pollute his mind to destroy the infection before it infects everything good in this world of terror.

This Novel is NOT dropped, I've just had a lot happen in life. I am planning to pick this back up ASAP. (Signed by Author on October 18th, 2025) Anyways, time for the synopsis: Lia was a simple girl in her previous life. Well not really, considering she was the hit woman for the largest mafia organization that operated within the United States. Over the years, her exceedingly high kill count, and overall success rate was something to be afraid of. Her personality was something akin to pure confidence, bordering on arrogance. She dealt with people the same way she did her enemies. By ruining their lives in the most horrific ways. IE: Setting them up for FBI investigations, having their houses repossessed by the government, or even having them framed for a serious crime. Lia was someone that no one wanted to ever cross. If you did cross her, you might as well have signed your own death certificate! That was until she was smacked in the head by a falling piano. While following through on a hit, no less! I mean, come on! A piano?! that's unfathomably crazy. Well, despite getting hit by a literal piano, she still managed to finish the job. But the very next day, she choked on a sandwich and nearly died! Her luck seemed to have literally bottomed out. This "streak of bad luck" had continued in her life for years! Literal years! She had come so close to dying so many times that she was genuinely confused as to how this could happen to someone! From falling down a flight of stairs to nearly breaking her neck during a cartwheel (despite having so much experience that she could do them with her eyes closed.) Lia had experienced so many near-death experiences that she had become entirely immune to the weird circumstances happening around her. Eventually, the bad luck did catch her. She was minding her own business, walking through the streets of Seattle when a coin rolled across the ground and tripped someone else, who dropped an umbrella, which she tripped over. Her fall had her land directly into the flow of moving traffic. She was then hit by a small square-body pickup truck. It had a small sticker of a smug smiling face attached to its front bumper. Lia had died because of what was essentially a coin. A coin had actually managed to kill a human being. Not just any human, but one of the most feared people within the US. Warnings for all readers: -This novel will (at some point) contain lesbian sex scenes. -System tag doesn't mean in the most literal way. (you'll find out more if you read it.) -This may become a Yuri harem novel (haven't decided.) -Will contain very strong LGBTQ+ themes

(Find the full book on already on RoyalRoad!) The gods make mistakes, and she is the greatest of them all. Can this accidentally chosen one save the world from herself? Ashtik Sai-Weleg is not a hero, nor is she a villain. She's nothing but a simple huntress with some mild social anxiety. That is all she has ever been, and that is all she ever wanted to be. Then an old and long-since forgotten god decided to put into action, his ancient and foretold prophecy. If all goes to plan, his holy Champion would have been there to save the world. Only... it did not go to plan. Instead of the chosen one, his divine mark has been violently attached to Ashtik, and now the whole world stands on the edge. Can she unite the world? Can she forge an alliance to battle the apocalypse? Can she remain on the side of good when all evil actions seem to save so many more lives? Probably not, but it might be fun to see how she gets along. The world either thinks her a chosen one or a wicked lying heretic, only she knows that the truth isn't nearly that simple. A rise to the top tale, featuring themes of imposter syndrome, addiction and (found)family bonds. Warning; Ashtik isn't a superhero. Punches hurt like hell, and she gets her ass kicked a fair amount. This isn't a power fantasy, its a tragedy.

In a future where love is still treated like something sacred, humanity has quietly begun to fracture under its weight. People fight for love, chase it, fear it, or reshape themselves just to survive it. Some choose self-preservation and build walls so high they forget what connection feels like. Others surrender completely, even when love slowly erases who they are. And a few remain open, feeling everything, even when it breaks them over and over again. But something deeper is wrong. Love no longer behaves like something natural. It glitches through people, distorts choices, rewrites emotions, and leaves behind versions of humans they no longer recognize. When two deeply scarred souls cross paths, they become part of an emotional anomaly that shouldn’t exist, pulling them into a connection that feels less like fate and more like a system error in reality itself. And as their bond deepens, the truth begins to surface: Love didn’t fail humanity. Humanity became incompatible with love.
