Ayanwale, a reluctant scion of a legendary Yoruba drummer lineage, has always rejected the ancestral rhythms that pulse through his blood. Haunted by the shadow of his uncle Baba Oro—whose greed for the forbidden Ninth Rhythm led to his downfall—Ayanwale lives a quiet life, disconnected from his heritage. But when a mysterious ancient book surfaces and a haunting dream pulls him toward a sacred, lost artifact known as the Royalty Drum, everything changes. Drawn into a secret world where music holds cosmic power and ancestral laws govern reality, Ayanwale must awaken the rhythms within himself to protect the legacy of his bloodline. Along the way, he confronts malevolent spirits, unearths family betrayals, and navigates a spiritual war between creation and destruction. In The Royalty Drum, Yoruba mythology comes alive through vivid, rhythm-infused storytelling that explores the weight of heritage, the power of sound, and the courage it takes to face the past—and drum a new future.

When the world shattered and dungeons erupted across London, Arjun Mehra didn’t awaken a powerful class or a rare mark—he tripped, fell, and accidentally killed a dungeon boss. Now he’s stuck with a mythic legacy no one understands, a cursed system that only activates when he defeats final bosses himself, and a glowing crown mark that keeps attracting attention he really doesn’t want. Worse? He can’t even enter dungeons solo anymore. Teamed up with powerful (and weirdly interested) Awakened women, Arjun just wants to survive, steal the kill, and maybe get lunch afterward. But with each victory, he inherits the terrifying power—and memories—of ancient Dungeon Kings. London’s dungeons are getting deadlier. Arjun’s powers are getting stranger. And his harem? Completely accidental. He’s not a hero. He’s not a leader. He’s just the guy who keeps accidentally becoming both.
