Defy The Alpha(s)

Two centuries after the Great War, peace between humans and werewolves was finally achieved, or so everyone believes. Werewolves reign like gods, and humans remain blissfully unaware of their true place in the new world order. To maintain this fragile balance, each year, a handful of "lucky" humans are selected from various districts to attend Lunaris Academy, a prestigious institution that promises glory, status, and a chance to mingle with the elite. Those chosen are hailed as the lucky few, destined to marry powerful alphas and rise as luna. This year, Violet Purple is among the chosen, much to everyone's surprise. For an orphaned girl adopted by a disgraced prostitute, this is a golden ticket to a better life or so she's told. But Lunaris Academy isn’t the paradise it’s painted to be. Everything Violet and her fellow humans have been taught is a lie. Humans are far from equal; they're pawns in a much larger game. The academy is nothing but a gilded cage, and the students are lambs led to slaughter, playthings for the alphas to toy with in their ruthless games. To make matters worse, Violet catches the attention of the most dangerous players in this game, the Terror Four: the Alpha of the North, Alpha of the South, Alpha of the East, and Alpha of the West. Each one is more dangerous, more twisted, and more powerful than the last. But even among themselves, the alphas are divided, each with their own deadly ambitions. Yet, they all have their eyes on her. They expect Violet to play along, to fall in line like the others who worship at their feet, to break under their games. But Violet isn’t like the others. She refuses to bow. She’ll defy them all.

Défier Les Alpha(s)

Deux siècles après la Grande Guerre, la paix entre les humains et les loups-garous a finalement été atteinte, du moins tout le monde le croit. Les loups-garous règnent comme des dieux, et les humains restent dans une ignorance bienheureuse de leur véritable place dans le nouvel ordre mondial. Pour maintenir cet équilibre fragile, chaque année, une poignée d'humains "chanceux" sont sélectionnés dans divers districts pour assister à l'Académie Lunaris, une institution prestigieuse qui promet gloire, statut et une chance de côtoyer l'élite. Ceux qui sont choisis sont acclamés comme les quelques chanceux, destinés à épouser de puissants alphas et à s'élever en tant que luna. Cette année, Violet Purple est parmi les élus, à la surprise de tous. Pour une fille orpheline adoptée par une prostituée déshonorée, c'est un ticket en or pour une vie meilleure ou du moins c'est ce qu'on lui dit. Mais l'Académie Lunaris n'est pas le paradis qu'on décrit. Tout ce que Violet et ses camarades humains ont appris est un mensonge. Les humains sont loin d'être égaux ; ils sont des pions dans un jeu bien plus vaste. L'académie n'est rien de plus qu'une cage dorée, et les étudiants sont des agneaux menés à l'abattoir, des jouets pour les alphas dans leurs jeux impitoyables. Pour aggraver les choses, Violet attire l'attention des joueurs les plus dangereux dans ce jeu, les Quatre Terreurs : l'Alpha du Nord, l'Alpha du Sud, l'Alpha de l'Est et l'Alpha de l'Ouest. Chacun est plus dangereux, plus tordu et plus puissant que le précédent. Mais même entre eux, les alphas sont divisés, chacun poursuivant ses propres ambitions mortelles. Pourtant, ils ont tous les yeux rivés sur elle. Ils s'attendent à ce que Violet suive le mouvement, tombe dans les rangs comme les autres qui vénèrent à leurs pieds, qu'elle casse sous leurs jeux. Mais Violet n'est pas comme les autres. Elle refuse de s'incliner. Elle va tous les défier.

Desafie o(s) Alfa(s)

Dois séculos após a Grande Guerra, a paz entre humanos e lobisomens finalmente foi alcançada, ou assim todos acreditam. Lobisomens reinam como deuses, e os humanos permanecem blissfully inconscientes de seu verdadeiro lugar na nova ordem mundial. Para manter esse frágil equilíbrio, a cada ano, um punhado de humanos "sortudos" é selecionado de vários distritos para frequentar a Lunaris Academy, uma instituição prestigiosa que promete glória, status e uma chance de se misturar com a elite. Os escolhidos são celebrados como os poucos sortudos, destinados a casar-se com poderosos alfas e ascender como luna. Este ano, Violet Purple está entre os escolhidos, para surpresa de todos. Para uma garota órfã adotada por uma prostituta desonrada, este é um bilhete dourado para uma vida melhor, ou pelo menos é o que dizem a ela. Mas a Lunaris Academy não é o paraíso que aparenta ser. Tudo o que Violet e seus companheiros humanos foram ensinados é uma mentira. Os humanos estão longe de serem iguais; são peões em um jogo muito maior. A academia é nada mais do que uma gaiola dourada, e os alunos são cordeiros levados ao abate, brinquedos para os alfas se divertirem em seus jogos impiedosos. Para piorar as coisas, Violet chama a atenção dos jogadores mais perigosos deste jogo, os Quatro do Terror: o Alfa do Norte, Alfa do Sul, Alfa do Leste e Alfa do Oeste. Cada um é mais perigoso, mais perverso e mais poderoso que o anterior. Mas mesmo entre si, os alfas estão divididos, cada um com suas próprias ambições mortais. Ainda assim, todos têm os olhos sobre ela. Eles esperam que Violet siga o fluxo, caia na linha como os outros que adoram aos seus pés, se quebre sob seus jogos. Mas Violet não é como os outros. Ela se recusa a se curvar. Ela vai desafiá-los a todos.

Pero Violet no es como los demás. Ella se niega a inclinarse. Ella los desafiará a todos.

Reminiscent of deep baked video game lore, and perhaps a close resemblance to Cormac McCarthy’s “The Road”, your writing style is rather interesting and easy to follow. The uncommon choice in protagonist for the story is also an interesting direction, one that I believe holds a lot of merit and intrigue. While I wouldn’t quite compare it to the excellent world building of overlord, it does have its own unique style.

I love Forsaken a LOT, and the fact that it's gotten a webnovel actually made me (and my friends) jump out of my seat. I've read loads of fanfics and Forsaken stories on Wattpad, but never have I ever actually read a Roblox fanfic of this quality. Already in Chapter 1, the book pays close attention to the original source material (likely because an actual Forsaken Dev wrote this) and integrates a lot of the ARG and side stories. The novel does a pretty good job at setting up the plot (I have a theory that it was The Spectre's puppets who sent Elliot into Damnation, but this likely isn't true considering they talked about finding someone "connected," which I'm pretty sure will be elaborated upon in the later chapters). I also love how the dialogue is handled. I don't know how to describe it, but it's just very real. Like, Person A can say X, and, surprised, Person B can ask X for confirmation. I'd describe the dialogue to be something along the lines of Cormac McCarthy. The dialogue is just realistic in a way. And that's not to mention the The Last Guest easter eggs (which I hope the book continues doing).

Definitely one of, if not the best novels I’ve ever read. A majority of the main cast is interesting, with few exceptions (*cough* Kai *cough*). The lore behind the dream realm is also really interesting. MC is OP but often faces enemies out of his league so his victories don’t feel unearned. The power system is great. Although the scaling can be a bit wacky(Morgan fight, Tyris Vs Cormac). There hasn’t been any genre-defining moments so far. So I’d say it’s similar to Tbate with a better setting and faster uploads If the writing quality remains consistent throughout the remaining thousands of chapters, it will be deserving of 5 stars.

As everyone knew, no one had been able to sit at the same table as Shen Zhixing for more than a week. Therefore, some busybodies opened a post on the school forum-Did the study god leave in anger because of Shen Zhixing today?

The next day, no, the school bully was still standing in the corridor. … Day N: F * ck? Why did the study god go with him? Later on, someone asked, what did it feel like to have a study god standing beside him as punishment? Shen Zhixing: " Thank you for the invitation. I feel good about it. I'll accept your study god." smile. jpg She wantonly flaunted the female " school bully " vs the gentle and noble young master. ----- [ The stars in the sky are in the eyes of the gods, and the little stars in the world are in my arms.]
