Noel Arden just wants to disappear. As a member of a prestigious and influential family known for producing powerful espers and guides, Noel’s D classification is an embarrassment. Determined to work as a guide despite his father’s opposition, Noel spends his days in the D-suite of Halo, the largest, most successful Paradigm agency in the country, keeping his head down and enduring the less pleasant aspects of his job. It’s not a bad life; he likes his coworkers, he doesn’t have to rely on his increasingly hostile father, and he’s almost never deployed to Fray sites. As long as he steers clear of his S-class esper half-brother, he can just melt into the background and pretend to be a normal, low level guide, just one of hundreds in Halo’s bottom ranks. Invisible and unremarkable. Exactly the way he wants it. Then an emergency situation during an unexpected deployment forces Noel to shatter his quiet, boring life with his own hands and thrusts him directly into the notoriety he’s worked so hard to avoid. When he witnesses Jade Ransom, Halo’s star esper and one of the only S-classes in the country, melting down from corruption overload, Noel has no choice but to use the ability he swore to never reveal in order to save both Jade and the city from destruction. Jade, desperate after a life of guiding intolerance, latches onto Noel as the only guide he’s ever properly synced with and insists on being exclusive partners. With his back against the wall and his pesky conscience whispering in his ear, Noel agrees. Struggling to balance his secret, his normal job, and his connection to Jade, Noel finds the stable life he worked so hard to build crumbling around him. And as he and Jade grow closer, Noel has to reckon with the vast differences between them and decide if he’s prepared to burn himself out just to let Jade shine. #GUIDEVERSE #ESPER #SLOWBURN [ADULT LANGUAGE AND SUBJECT MATTER] *original cover by me *character portraits commissioned

"Reincarnation is a mysterious and wonderful thing, isn´t it?" The old professor took a sip from his tea. Looking at his colleague in the opposite seat. "Just imagine the possibilities!" He spread his arms wide to indicate all the possibilities. "I am." His colleague answered sourly. "Let us assume that there is the thing called reincarnation. Then it must be a blessing for us not to remember our past lives." "Why do you say that? Just imagine If I had all the knowledge of my previous life or lives wouldn´t I be almost all-knowing?" The man smiled imagining having all the knowledge he couldn´t acquire in his lifetime. The other man just shook his head "You, my friend are far too greedy. Just imagining what would happen to a person remembering his past lives fills me with dread and pity. We are lucky not to remember anything if reincarnation is real. Thank God, that this does not happen." Hello there! Writer here. That one above is actually not part of the story, but when I thought about what the story is about that just pooped into my head. It is what this story is going for. Please give me a notice if that´s not how I was supposed to do it.

When the user practices this fist technique, his body will be revitalized instead.] As such, he fell in love with the Seven Stigmata Fist Technique, the Virgin Martial Arts, the Star Sucking Skill, the Explosion Pill, the Soul Splitting Pill and everything that could potentially kill him. He activated the Dissection of Heavens and Demons during the day. At night, he devoted himself to cultivating the Sunflower Scripture. Others improved their cultivation through the aid of resources; he improved his cultivation through self-mutilation.

"Perfection is never achieved, only striven for." -Primus "Origin" Odhinkar In the midst of the Viking age, a young man has a birthright that few can begin to comprehend in its totality; himself included. The secrets and technology of an alien race allowed the Balderklan, a once small and dwindling people, to ascend into the realm of historic legend, their perks of understanding unbound by the old limitations that life offered them prior. They became the most powerful beings on the planet, a world yet to be properly mapped out. Indeed, the innovations of rare geniuses and the persistence of patient men wiser than their time resulted in the birth of three brothers that could be considered the next step in human evolution, with the mind-boggling technology melded with their bodies naturally. Born into a position unlike anyone else in human history, Primus Odhinkar and his brothers, Lars and Soren, seek to discover who and what they are, while destiny carves the path they stride together. The road is paved with good intentions, yet the misfortune of a thrall may come forth to avenge his now devistated people while desperately hanging onto his humanity with sheer faith. While the truths of reality can be discovered through the technology these boys weild, the secrets hint toward a catastrophic imbalance that not even the Grand Elder of the alien race could prepare them for. They have only the lessons of their people to reflect on how and why they came here, to avoid the same cataclysm that may occur in this world just the same. "I'd like to call this, The Ragnarok Effect." -Mathias Ugelsted
