Fifty years after the cataclysmic Second Jewel War, the Land of Spade has flourished under the legacy of Kaipo Kasumi, its once-fractured realms now united in an era of peace. But peace is a double-edged sword, for in the shadows of tranquility, a new and insidious evil stirs—one that threatens to unravel everything the heroes of old fought for. As dark forces emerge from the cracks of a fragile peace, the next generation of mages must rise to confront an adversary unlike any before. Will they uphold the legacy of their predecessors, or will the weight of history crush them? The fate of five universes rests in their hands, and their journey will test not only their power but the very essence of who they are.

The battle begins! Viraa informs Alissia and the others of a unique method that may help even the odds against Avarice and his group. Meanwhile, Avarice and his group finally begin the final phase of their agenda. Can Alissia and her friends prevail against such a powerful force or will they fall, unable to prevent the disaster to come? Either way, the epic conclusion to the Earthly Ties Saga is promised to change the world forever.

it all started with the shocking arrest of Department H agent, Storm 01, accused of the ruthless murder of two of the most important figures in the planet of Winter Weir.

However, things took an unexpected turn as Storm 01 managed to escape captivity just as he faces the impending doom of a death sentence.

Armed with his extraordinary powers, Storm 01 ventures into the realms of time, finding himself transported back to a pivotal period in his life - a few hours before his affiliation with Department H.

Will he be able to unravel the web of deception and unveil the real culprit behind the heinous crimes? Or is there a deeper secret waiting to be discovered?

The capital city of this dark time, Ōkoku, was a town like others where the people lived their daily lives, but this was the night that everything would change.

Out at sea, a wooden fishing vessel bobbed gently under the moonlight. The fishermen aboard worked tirelessly, their calloused hands hauling in nets laden with the night's catch. Laughter and idle chatter filled the air, oblivious to the unnatural stillness that had settled over the sea—the dreadful calm before the storm.

On the deck, an old fisherman squinted, concern written over his weathered face as he scrutinized the distant shape above the sea. It appeared to be a massive wave at first, churning the sea ominously. But as it surged closer, his heart skipped a beat.

This was no wave.

Men scrambled across the deck to arm themselves, reaching for harpoons, nets, and anything that might serve as a weapon. The creature leading the tide charged lightning in its mouth while running across the water as if it were on land, firing the bolt out and setting the ship ablaze and leaping over the burning vessel and rushing into Ōkoku.

Destruction engulfed the city as the demons descended. Above, Winged abominations screeched, raining down torrents of flames that reduced buildings to ashes and filled the air with the stench of charred flesh.  Below, grotesque monsters rampaged unhindered, consuming the fleeing humans and leaving nothing but devastation in their wake.

Amidst the chaos, the commander of the demons made himself known.

"Such beautiful suffering, I can't believe it has finally come, to think I almost missed the end of the world. Such pure pure ecstasy." The commander's wings spread as he motioned for all the demons under his command to attack.

"The demons have shown themselves to the world, now we have no reason to hide ourselves. Kill as many as you can without worry of being spotted." A man's voice echoed through the heads of many.

A man stood on a roof with his rifle aimed at the lion-like beast that destroyed and killed those people at the harbor. He lined up his shot and took fire, sending the beast flying and crashing down dead.

A comrade of his wielded her Naginata to cut the legs off of one of the many giant demons before spinning around and slashing its head clean off.

Another warrior tossed his chain onto the wing of a flying demon, sinking the blade in. Using the momentum of the demon's flight, he launched himself into the air, slicing its back open to kill it in a single strike. It came down with a screech, crashing to the ground as the man landed on it.

These were the rays of hope that these citizens needed: allies who were just as powerful, if not more powerful, than the demons. So much so they could be considered demons themselves, but not just any demons.

These were The Fiends, Demons who kill Demons!

They came in full force following the orders from their capital, known as the Divine Mountain. They all stood together strong and with wills unbendable and emotions incorruptible, and with them came their captain. A warrior who graduated to the top of the Divine Mountain in mere weeks, a record unheard of by any Fiends known to record. Known as "The Tyrant Of The Battlefield," they called him a Warlord and One Of The Divine Mount's Greatest Fiends.

If the love of your life was hanging off of a cliff, what would you do?

Hi! Ray here!

This is my first story on Penana, and although I have been writing this for a while, I know that there will be some grammatical issues or maybe a couple plot holes in it.I accept all constructive criticism, but please bare with me throughout this process!

Thank you for checking TEoT out and I hope you enjoy!

Book Two (Part Three): A Kingdom and its ‘Six Villages'in confusion relies on the assistance of the 'Demon Witch', Lady Rai, as their 'Imperial Hero and Ruler'. This is the story of how their 'Demon Ruler'changed and maliciously 'saved'their dying Kingdom and themselves...in a strange way, again.

As the Prime World Ends, another parallel tale takes its first steps. Welcome to a world where Izuku has two older sisters, Tatsumaki and Fubuki. But that's not all that has changed in this world. Strange new things lurk in the shadows, stars and across the ocean. Can Izuku once again become one of the greatest heroes, just like his older sisters?

Louise is a zero. The only one in her class to fail at the most basic of spells. Her last chance to prove to everyone that she is a mage is around the corner. She must succeed in summoning a familiar or face a life she couldn’t bare to live. Lucky for her, she summons more than just 1 simple familiar. The events that took place that day will shake the very foundations of the world, nay, the whole multiverse!

A crossover between multiple FoZ Fan Fics, many of which are abandoned.

There was but a single night, when the entire sky glowed like the sun.

Stars fell from the heavens, objects of fire and stardust crashing into the world.

They all stared at the sky, watching as their worlds burned, unable to save even the littlest child.

Kingdoms fell, and from the ashes rose a new order, a new predator capable surviving in their catastrophe-stricken world.

No one knew where they came from, just knew that they were there all along.

Watching for eons.

Waiting patiently for their turn to rule.

And appeared, as both the gods and devils of the new world.

I heard a voice one day, saying it was all for a reason.

Why I had to leave. Why I had to fall. Why I had to, for the greater good of their world.

Who’s world?

Not mine, I’m sure of that much.

There are many games out in the world, but I liked this one single game, the game which took the gaming community like a storm, everyone talked about it and everyone wanted to play it.

I was no different, I was just a girl who loved games, and yet somehow after two long years of playing the game, I ended up inside the game as a villainous extra with not a single line in the game's progression!

But that does not mean I am going to die like in the original! *******************The golden light enveloped everything as the red sun slowly rose. A woman stood amidst a battlefield painted red with the blood of many fallen soldiers and wizards. Her long black hair, which looked like a void, cascaded around her in the morning breeze, which carried the pungently sweet scent of death.

Her clear blue eyes, which resembled the deep and vast ocean, stared directly at the blonde man in shining armor. Her arms loosely hung as her posture stooped, she waved her two short, intricately designed black daggers dripping with blood at the man taunting him.

The blonde-haired, handsome man stared at her with his determined blue eyes as he pointed his big and glimmering sword at her.

The woman's stone-cold face slowly turned to a malicious sneer as she licked the blood in her daggers right before charging at the man.
