Entre esas personas está Mike Shinoda, compañero de banda y prácticamente hermano de Chester.

Mike Arshur, a brilliant but emotionally distant Egyptologist, takes his son Adam on a long-overdue vacation in a remote desert resort. Haunted by the failure of his marriage and a strained relationship with his son, Mike sees the trip as a chance to reconnect. But their peaceful retreat turns into a nightmare when ancient beings rise from beneath the earth—the true Pharaohs, immortal gods who have lived for millions of years in a secret world beneath the surface. Every 5,000 years, these subterranean gods emerge to harvest the souls of firstborn sons—rituals that fuel their power and reset human civilization. When Adam is marked for sacrifice, Mike must confront the very myths he’s studied his entire life. In a desperate attempt to save his child, he unlocks a hidden power tied to a cursed ritual, one that could either destroy him—or turn him into the Pharaohs' worst nightmare. Blending ancient magic with advanced lost technology, The Father and the Pharaohs' Gods is a haunting journey through forgotten legends, inner demons, and a father’s ultimate sacrifice. As the line between science and sorcery blurs, Mike must face not only the gods of old—but the guilt and love that live deep within his own hollow heart.

A forgotten device. A vanished father. A quiet boy thrust into a world of elemental power, ancient trials—and a darkness that remembers. Mike Flowers never wanted to stand out. But when he discovers a strange artifact buried beneath the forest floor, everything changes. Pulled into a breathtaking world beyond his own, Mike finds himself marked by an ancient legacy: the last Speaker, chosen to awaken powers that once shaped the balance of realms. With a bond to a silver-winged eagle and a bow that grows with his resolve, Mike must face elemental trials, corrupted warlords, and a crumbling magic gate that leads not home—but to something far older, and far more dangerous. As secrets unravel and allies form, Mike begins to understand: he wasn’t just chosen by the device. He was remembered by it. For fans of Brandon Sanderson, Leigh Bardugo, and the adventurous spirit of Percy Jackson, this epic fantasy journey blends emotional depth with thrilling discovery.

Someone has messed up the proportions when Mike was created. He really wants to be a good demon, but... His flowery personality and heart-stealing smile get in the way. Will he be able to gather Virgin's Blood to save his skin? Will he learn to be a real Demon? Will he find some waffles? Let's find out, if you will!

Mike wakes up in a strange place, with no memories and no sense of direction. Where is he? Why him? Voices haunt his mind. Trials appear without warning. Unsettling—sometimes terrifying—encounters await him at every turn. One thing quickly becomes clear: here, running away is not an option. To survive, Mike will have to face the incomprehensible… and dive deep into the truth of who he really is. But what if this world already knew who he was—long before he could remember it himself?

The story of a doctor and a lawyer.

The Jacobs family has never been known for anything too good besides their money. Everyone who carried the name always had a huge burden to carry and worse off they were not the brightest…… academically speaking. They had been blessed with the looks of models and wealth only many could dream of but a very questionable thinking capacity. Mike on the other hand was different; he was born third out of four children and got envied by all his siblings including his younger sister. He was the only Jacob who was born different, the only one born special, the only one born with 'it'. He never understood why he was so different, why he wasn’t regular like the rest of his family even if regular meant being different, and not the good kind of different. He always envied himself thinking that him being different was not a good thing, at least that’s what his parents constantly reminded him of, which resulted in him hiding what he had and shying away from the real world. What happens when Mike has finally had enough of his family putting him to shame because he was……different. What happens when he decides that he’s had enough of his family and takes matters into his own hands? Will he ever make up with his family or will his gift be the cause of the unfixable relationship he had with his family…… not that he even had a relationship with them to begin with.

I gazed upon the ethereal face looking back at me. The clear water that reflects it catches my attention and I realize how such purity completes the picturesque view I'm basking my eyes in. For more than a fracture of a second, I felt envy run through my veins. Oh, to have a seemingly-perfect life. I tapped on the reflected tattoo, water dancing in ripples under my touch. "Hiraeth," I muttered. almost inaudible, drowned by nature's very own whispers. Tattoos don't need to have meaning. Some just have them because it just feels right. In my case, I guess both conventions apply. Hiraeth. a Welsh word that holds different meanings. It can mean homesickness of a home you can never return to, or never was. It may also mean nostalgia, an earnest longing or desire, or a sense of regret. I had this inked on me for a reason. Maybe it was the first as I've always longed for a place where I can feel safe, where I can draw strength. My querencia. It could be the second. Memories have never left me since it flooded not only my mind but also my heart. What I had wasn't perfect. But it was definitely more than enough. But I've also yearned for something. Perhaps recognition? Attention? Appreciation? Love? The last one... possibly. For the sole reason that I regret meeting you. I regret being drawn by your eyes and your heart. I regret a lot of things in my life but the one I truthfully feel a wave of remorse for... was loving you. I saw the reflection of a bitter smile that formed on my lips. Perhaps it was all of those reasons. Lies. Betrayals. Pain. Excruciating pain. Death. It all leads back to you. For a moment, I stupidly and blindly assumed you were my haven. Turns out, you were gonna unleash the hell I didn't expect. One word holds thousands of memories. One word describes the infinite emptiness in me. One word.... Hiraeth
