Story Short scene: So, doctor, you’re saying that I can never get a “hard-on”-slash– “erection” –slash- “boner”? Doctor: No, no, and a definite no. Doctor, you don’t have to so sure about it, medical miracles happen all the time. Doctor: A desperate creature is always hopeful, but let me dumb it down for you. You have never masturbated or had sex or ever ejaculated in the 40 years of your life. Your sperms crystallized, which turned your balls into rock hard fossils. Your hormonal production went ‘kaput’. By the way, kaput means broken or useless. I know what kaput means! Doctor: Sheesh for a man with crystal balls you are super spunky. As I was saying your entire sex system is ruined. Being suppressed of sexual thoughts or sexual actions for so long, your body forgot all about sex. Your body forgot how to get a hard-on. That’s the end of my counsel and as a sympathy gift for the man with the useless d*ck, I advise you against using the little blue pill aka Viagra. I know that Viagra is a blue pill. Doctor: You know a lot of useless information for a man of your situation. Well keep away from medical stimulation for your broken d*ck, as the most hopeful thing that you can get from any sex medication is high blood pressure and a heart attack, but hey the news channels will have a field day covering the news of you being dead from trying to get a hard-on. Ha-ha-ha-ha. Doctor, I will be leaving… Doctor: Ha-ha-ha-ha, nurse, send the next patient after 5 minutes. I will need some time to laugh. Female voice: Hey don’t beat yourself up over your non-existent sex life. Though miracles are not that common, they do happen! What! Who?! Who just talked to me! Female voice: Don’t look around, silly, you cannot see me unless I allow you to look at me. [Gulp] who are you? Female voice: Me? I’m a Goddess, hehe.

Gwendolynn was raised by humans. Thinking she was just like any other human, she never thought she was, in fact, an elf until she began seeing the similarities between this mythical creature, and herself. Upon discovering her origins, she starts to learn who she is, and what her race is capable of. Finding out why Elves have gone extinct, Gwendolynn has to decide what she will do with this information, and what her place is within the strands of fate. This story is going to come about in no particular order because it's based on an outline that's still being worked on. This work in particular is actually a bit of a collaboration. A friend has inspired me to write this work, so while I am doing it for her; it is still my work. Both her and I really hope you enjoy this adventure. ^^

This story began as a question: what if the boundaries of humanity were broken overnight? What if survival wasn’t just about endurance, but about evolving, adapting, and finding power in a world that no longer plays by the rules? Kael’s journey is not just about fighting monsters—it’s about confronting the emptiness inside, the choices we make when everything familiar collapses, and the cost of becoming stronger than we ever imagined. The world you are about to enter is dangerous, unpredictable, and at times, unforgiving. Monsters lurk in shadows, humans are both prey and predator, and power comes at a price. I hope you enjoy walking alongside Kael through this chaotic, thrilling Seoul—a city you think you know, yet will never see the same way again. Remember: in this world, survival is not enough. You have to rise. — Author

The Sun has gone mad, scorching the surface and rendering it uninhabitable. Humanity was forced into the guts of the Earth, carving out their little island of light to keep Scorn and Entropy at bay. Elion was one of those humans, living in the city of Mirth—a history student infatuated with the Third Age. Unfortunately, his destiny was never to live a peaceful life among old books and ancient scriptures. Since birth, he was sentenced to become Unlocked: a being capable of transcending what ordinary humans could achieve. But, as my good buddy Uncle Ben once said: “With great power comes great responsibility.” That quote lingers in the divine conflict between the Gods and their primordial enemy—a conflict that, whether he wanted it or not, Elion was thrust into. Spoiler: he didn’t want it. Either way, gods rarely ask for permission. There will be tears. There will be love. And there will be everything in between. So with that, I welcome thee into the dark reality of Scorn—and bid you the greatest of reads.
