Love can sometimes kill you.

Chapter 1Donghae The Fortune Teller

A girl in the Kingdom of Goryeo named Lee Hae Min is the daughter of the first Queen and the King. It's not unusual that the King have two wives. She's not like the other girls in town, she's not materialistic, she's not femenist, she's stubborn. "Princess Hae Min, your mother Queen Hye Rin has been waiting for you." And lastly! She hate being called Princess! Gladly, she won't be the Queen. Or she will...?

She went down with a sly smile plastered on her face. "Eomma!" Queen Hye Rin disregarded what she said.

"Don't call me Mother unless the throne will be passed to you!" Hye Min furrowed her brows. How come that she came from this witch's womb? They are truly different. "What should I call you then? Should I call you, the first wife of the King or you'd rather be called Hye Rin by me?" Hae Min said with a mocking smile. "You're mouth is full of non sense, Princess Hae Min. I would rather not talk to you!" Queen Hye Rin left with a furrow brows. Hae Min tsked, she did not expect that her highness will walk out!

"The gap between you and the Queen is increasing, your highness." Hae Min laughed. "So what? Everything comes with a price!" She said with a deep meaning. Hae Min is aware of how her mother despise her. She hated her since her birth.

"Have you gone into a fight with Queen Hye Rin again?" Yoonwoo patted her head. "It was nothing. I was just mocking her." Hae Min admitted. She doesn't like lying, even if it's gonna make others hate her... so what? "You should learn how to control your temper sometimes." Kang Yoonwoo is the sixth prince, he is older than Hae Min by one day. They didn't come from the same womb that's why he's older than Hae Min by a day.

Hae Min hooked her arms on Yoo Jae's arms. "I don't mind. I got used to it." Yoonwoo sighed. "You should let go of me. I have to talk to our father. I will bring you somewhere on your birthday." Hae Min smiled as he let go of Yoo Jae. "Pink promise then!" Once again he patted her before leaving.

Hae Min went out. The life on the big temple of Goryeo is so boring and sad for her. She can't take it. She's more into adventure. On her way to another town, everyone are on panic! "MOVE!" They hear a loud scream full of authority. It was Genere Go Dong So. Hae Min froze when she realized that something wrong is going on! The fourth prince, Lee Jinho grabbed her out of Dong So's way.

"Oh my juce! Thank you, Jin-Jin! I owe you one! What do you want?" Tamin started pretending that he is thinking. "Wrap yourself and give it to me." Hae Min stared at him using her deadly glare. "Calm down, my Princes Hae! I just want you to take care. Where are you off to?" Hae Min sighed. "I am looking for Donghae." Donghae is the famous fortune teller on the other town. "Princess... you are out of your mind. I suggest that you should go home and rest." Jinho said with a confused look. "Hey! Just because Donghae is a fortune teller, doesn't meant that everything he is saying are the truth!" Jinho looked at her younger sister helplessly. "I will go with you then."

After the long walk, they have finally reached Donghae's home. "Anybody there?!" Hae Min shouted. A sleepy face opened the door. Donghae welcomed the two royalties inside his small home.

"I apologize due to the discomfort of my small house." Donghae said formally. "Hah! I would rather live in a small house than to live in the house full of competition!" Donghae looked at Hae Min curiously. A strong vibe is surrounding her. "If father heared you, you will be kneeling down on the floor with salts!" She rolled her eyeballs. "He won't know unless you'll speak." The siblings immediately followed Donghae as they saw him walking. "Take a sit. Let me see your hands." Hae Min immediately presented herhands to Donghae.

He closed his eyes as he hold her hands. He slipped her hands out of shocked. "Be prepared on the future, your highness. The truth will be revealed." Hae Min was left curious. "Why?" She pouted! She want the whole answer! "I can't tell you." Now it's Jinho's turn. "You have to choose wisely. Your choices can affect everything. Including the Princess's life..."

Shattering Humanity

The most eclectic epic ever inspired! "If she feels pain, then I'll make sure you all do..." With the whole globe snowed over, humans are no longer on top of the ladder. A matter creating dragon, and violent crystal/ice aliens, sizes ranging from the average human to towering monsters large enough to squash cities, have forced humanity into various locations of hiding. The chaotic new world gives the opportunity for several members of a manipulative, 8th century witch clan to reveal themselves and save the most meek of humans. Each woman using a form of magic which has secretly coexisted with humanity, to take control of the post-apocalyptic world as Mafia Bosses, Dictators, modern day Conquerors, and other forms of ruling leadership. All in an attempt, not to save humanity, but to prove which is the strongest amongst them. Meanwhile, in the three years after the initial invasion, a few humans have begun to not only fight back against the ice aliens, but some choose to become hosts and acquire unique abilities after slaying one of these bloodthirsty, unconventional extraterrestrials. Shortly before leaving their sanctuary/apocalypse training academy, two friends, Katsu and Saku, are reunited as an academic squad, but the polar opposite personalities are chosen by the last surviving "Creator of Humanity". Both boys 'blessed' as hosts for their universe's contemporary forces and use their "God abilities" to achieve their own (secretly combative) goals. Accompanying them is Shelly, the last surviving descendant to the greatest 'unknown' Scandinavian sword fighter. After being revealed of her destined lineage, and the otherwise "mythical" history of her highly respected grandmother from the Viking/Valkyrie Age, Shelly is determined to retrieve all of her slain grandmother's stolen weapons from the both physically and magically gifted covenant of aforementioned witches. With overpowered witches now trying to gain control over societies, humans gaining powers from the same alien monters who originally threaten them, as well as a secretive psychopath pulling the strings of chaos, in order to save only himself and his precious friend at the end of it all, can love conquer all, or will their love conquer us all?

If you have complete freedom to act however, or say whatever you desire, do you truly have any purpose worth caring about to protect?" ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ [All art is not done by AI but by my good friend Amon-kun] ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ WARNING/DISCLAIMER: This series uses ætiological mythopoeism to spotlight coincidental parallels between various religious scriptures, and scientific theories but is in no way discrediting or belittling the beliefs of others whether that be Creationist or Evolutionist.

The Russian Tsar

When a brilliant but unfulfilled 21st-century mind is thrust into the past, he awakens in the body of an 18-year-old, destitute baron on the fringes of the vast Russian Empire. It is the 1890s, a gilded age on the brink of catastrophic collapse. While he inherits the local memories and customs of his new life, he retains his own formidable intellect and, most critically, a precise knowledge of the wars, revolutions, and political shifts that are set to fracture the empire and plunge it into chaos. His provincial estate becomes the foundation for a much larger game: the subtle infiltration of the imperial court. Wealth and political favor become his weapons as he cultivates allies among the ambitious and systematically dismantles the influence of his rivals. Every investment and introduction is a deliberate chess move, part of a patient, calculated coup designed to ultimately checkmate the throne. Should he succeed in claiming the crown, he would unleash a quiet revolution from the top down. Knowledge of future breakthroughs will allow him to supercharge Russia's industry and sciences. He will reform the military entirely, building a force guided by doctrines that have yet to be conceived in this era, let alone countered. But this national transformation is merely the means to an end. He is not just trying to avoid the storm of war and revolution he remembers from his history books; he is driven to seize that chaotic future and bend it to his will, ensuring that when the dust of the 20th century settles, it is the Russian Empire that stands alone as the world's master.
