Chaotic Existance

Tamtu
Synopsis: "What do you do when given the power of creation itself, only to be forced into an ultimatum—wipe out everything or let the ones you love be erased?" For Lucian Raizel Delmar, the answer is simple: Neither. In a world ruled by Syndicates, where Rift-born monstrosities known as Phantasms run rampant and humanity's survival depends on the elite Wave Riders, Lucian is nothing but an anomaly. A boy with no Aether Core, no Gift, and no future—just another weakling in a system that only values power. Until, on the eve of his departure from Genesis Academy, something inside him wakes up. A presence. A force. A Sea deeper than existence itself. Suddenly, the prey becomes the predator. The one who was overlooked becomes the one who cannot be ignored. As Lucian's abilities evolve at a terrifying rate, secrets buried beneath reality begin to surface—secrets about the Genesis Sea, the Rifts, and the gods that watch from above. The world isn’t as it seems. And neither is he. Now, hunted by enemies seen and unseen, Lucian refuses to bow to fate. If the world wants him to be a pawn, he’ll become the hand that tips the board. If the gods dare to force his hand, he’ll remind them why monsters fear the deep. "They thought they could choose for me. Control me. Shape my path. But the thing about tides?" "They don’t ask for permission. They consume."

Scions of the Cruel King

In Scions of the Cruel King, the Targaryen family drama is in full swing. After Aegon’s death, Aenys took the throne, but things quickly went south. Aenys wasn’t exactly a strong leader, and it didn’t take long before the Faith rose up against him. That’s when Maegor stepped in—furious and out for blood after the murder of Eleana. He crushed the rebellion with an iron fist. When Aenys died under some pretty shady circumstances, Maegor took over as king. But even though he was ruthless, the Faith remained a thorn in his side right up until his own brutal end in 48 A.L. Now, the story kicks off in 56 A.L., and the Targaryens are still in hot water. Jaehaerys, Aenys’s son, is holding down the fort as regent for his young cousin Vaegyl, Maegor’s son. The realm is a mess, full of uprisings and political scheming. Jaehaerys and his allies, like Gerold Westerling, are doing their best to keep the peace, but they don’t realize that Westerling and Ser Tybolt Lannister have their own plans. They’re secretly plotting to put Westerling’s grandson, Aegon, on the throne. As Vaegyl gets closer to coming of age, things start heating up. Old loyalties are questioned, hidden secrets come to light, and the shadow of Maegor’s brutal reign still hangs over everything. The fight for the Iron Throne is just beginning, and it’s going to get messy. If you’re into stories packed with power struggles, betrayals, and the Targaryens fighting for control of the Seven Kingdoms, Scions of the Cruel King is right up your alley.
