lucius junius brutus

In the heart of the Philippine archipelago, where ancient myths breathe life into the night, there exists a figure shrouded in as much mystery as the creatures he pursues. Known only as Lucius, his past remains a closely guarded secret, his true identity hidden beneath layers of intrigue and tales of his exploits. A master in the art of combat and ancient lore, Lucius walks the thin line between the known world and the supernatural, making him the last hope for those plagued by creatures that lurk in the shadows. "Lucius of the Shadows: Chronicles of a Sellsword" follows the enigmatic journey of a man bound by a code of honor yet driven by a quest that seeks to balance the scales of justice in a world where the supernatural becomes the oppressor. With each village's plea, Lucius delves deeper into the heart of darkness, confronting not just the monsters that prey on the innocent but also the demons of his undisclosed past.

Everyone wants to be the hero. They get the girls, the fame, the legendary adventures, the stories. At least that's what Don thinks, who can blame? He thinks he's got it all. The prophecy is all lined up for him, and he's strong, he's surely the hero. Right? Well what happens if you're not? What happens when actually, you aren't even in the main party, you're just tree 6? That's what Don finds out when he is invited to an academy where everyone he seemingly meets is better than him in one aspect or another. They are stronger specters, wielders, and many more adventures that are just better than him. He can't and won't be the hero... at least that's what everyone thinks. Despite everything he still pushes through. Why? Cus this is his story. No one else can define it. With such a mindset though, will it stick to the very end? Or will it break him, crushing his life and ruining it to pieces?

This is a book is based on the history of the Fazbear Frights Books. I began to write this book before all the fazbear frights books were out so part of the story follows that of the original ones but as the story progress it will develop differently. The story picks up from the 8th fazbear frights book (Gumdrop Angel) all the books from 1 to 8 are cannon to this alternative story. It will follow the same structure that the original books, 3 Stories and 1 Epiloge per book. A small warning, I have a quite inconsistent writing schedule, I don't know how much it will take to release more parts of this fanfic but I guarantee you my beloved readers that I do intend to finish it whatever the amount of time that it requires.

On a fateful Friday, a day that seemed to be just like any other, a diligent and sharp-minded worker named Lucius was deeply engrossed in his tasks at the office. He was known for his unwavering attention to detail and his ability to tackle challenges with thoughtful precision. Yet, as he was busy navigating through his responsibilities, the fabric of reality began to unravel around him, and the world stood on the brink of catastrophe. As the day unfolded, Lucius completed his shift and returned home, only to find that his loyal parrot, Fenwick, was in distress. With feathers ruffled and an erratic chirp, Fenwick appeared badly injured, and Lucius felt an overwhelming wave of devastation wash over him. Confusion swirled in his mind as he tried to grasp the magnitude of the chaos outside. It was as if the world had turned upside down. Seeking some semblance of normalcy, Lucius switched on the television. However, what greeted him was anything but comforting. The screen flickered to life, revealing a horrifying tableau: humans were engaged in violent acts against one another, their faces contorted with rage and madness, as if they were under a malevolent spell. The wild glint in their eyes betrayed a loss of humanity, leaving Lucius feeling profoundly unsettled. In an attempt to escape the horrors being displayed, he anxiously changed the channel, hoping to stumble upon something more benign. To his astonishment, he suddenly found himself staring at an old man he vaguely recognized from his subway ride. The sight was initially comforting, but that reassurance quickly faded. Before long, the old man's demeanor shifted ominously; he, too, succumbed to the bizarre wave of possession gripping the populace. With a chilling intensity, he uttered the words, “Found you,” directed pointedly at Lucius. A cold dread settled in Lucius’s core as he glanced up at the ceiling, the world around him fading into a nightmare. He felt utterly alone and terrified in this forsaken reality. If everything was truly crumbling around him, he pondered, perhaps he should seize the moment and indulge in one last escape from his fears. With a mix of trepidation and resolution, he booted up his gaming console, seeking solace in the digital realm. As the familiar interface loaded, his heart raced when a notification popped up on the screen, asking, "Would you like to travel to the rift?" The idea of stepping into the unknown, a nexus between worlds, presented itself not only as an escape but also as a tantalizing opportunity. In this dire moment, facing a world in upheaval and sensing the weight of destiny pressing upon him, Lucius was confronted with a choice that could change everything.
