QT: Finding Meaning

*** My health has been very poor this year alongside loosing my mother-in-law and cat so I'm sorry but this will be rewritten and finished when I'm well, I'm doing it all offline in my rare creative moments, hopefully with a more mature touch *** [WARNING: Mature Themes (smut, violence, murder, suicide, domestic violence, etc.)] --------- Waking up naked and alone with a murderer, without a single memory, she relies on System to understand her existence in another person's body. --------- Still don't know if you should read me? Here's a quick breakdown to help you make up your mind if this novel is right for you: This is my own twist on the QuickTransmigration System genre, giving it a more 'spiritual' twist. It explores sensitive themes throughout each arc and I will do my best to give trigger warnings at the start of chapters containing them. It is written in the first person and revolves around a female lead (FL). This is a weak-to-strong novel, she will have heavy flaws and make repeated mistakes and seem generally weak at the start, bear with her as she grows. Romance is a heavy theme within the story that contains a lot of smut, with more than one character. However, there is only one male lead in the end. The story is less about fluffy romance, instead, it's a journey of growth and self-discovery, revolving around the main storyline. Although, each Arc will have its own separate storyline that will have an impact on the main storyline with both new and reoccurring characters (so skipping arcs is not advised). I have currently written the rough drafts for four arcs at the point of writing this: 1. Ghosts & Guns 2. How do you keep a child alive in the Zombie Apocalypse? 3. Abducted by Aliens 4. Freed by the Fae Folk 5. .... --------- --------- Cover Art made by myself, using nightcafe AI Art, check out my page, I'm attempting to make novel art and character art for each arc: https://creator.nightcafe.studio/u/Raychbunni

The meaning of life . The tragedy.

A world of mist, lies, and sleeping gods. --- In Sven, borders don't exist. Cultures mingle, eras overlap—Victorian carriages stand alongside glass skyscrapers. A magnificent world. A world that lies. For beneath this facade of harmony, creatures lurk. Hereditary powers, the Chernobyls, are passed down from generation to generation. But these powers are divine prisons—limits imposed by a god who doesn't want humans to believe themselves superior. And above it all, 88 constellations sleep in the sky. One day, they will awaken. And on that day, humanity may well descend into madness. --- Welcome to Sven. Praise be to the Creator.

Hello! Author here. My prologue isn't the best, but it will be extremely important later on. Every sentence has a meaning. Whether it be exposition, foreshadowing, character development. or making you understand what this world is and who the characters are. I pray that you stick around to see this book through. Arc 3 is my personal favorite :D.

Interesting to read, action is good, translation is decent and better than it was early on. Biggest compliant is that a lot of the terminology that comes from the Chinese background has little meaning for Western readers. Particularly when there's exposition that sounds like in-world folk medicine lore, and it leaves you with no better understanding of the world or what's going on.

The writing quality was garbage. Please work on it. The entire story was predictable and cringe. The characters were generic and the way they talked was horrible and cringe. The world was so generic that I rolled my eyes multiple times. Now, with my biggest issue, ducking exposition, so much exposition, half of the chapters sometimes are just exposition, for f's sake, stop.

Boy do you love exposition. I am not a fan of exposition. That being said. For a historical novel you can get away with a little more. However, don't let it get in the way of the story. There were a couple of places where the exposition almost ruined big reveals. Look at your work and ask yourself, how much do I really need for the story, be honest about it. I swear you'll improve
