Aether Protocol

Leonard_Crisostomo
A Cyberpunk Magic Revolution In the year 2042, the world runs on Aether—programmable dark matter energy channeled through corporate-controlled smartdevices called Conduits. Magic is licensed, spells are subscription-based, and unauthorized glyph-coding is a crime punishable by neural scrubbing. Lucent Argyr, a debt-ridden underground fighter with a talent for stealing codes, stumbles upon a forbidden truth: the original Aether code was never meant to be caged. Hunted by corporate's private army, courted by the hacker collective GhostKey, and tormented by visions of a deeper conspiracy, Lucent must decide whether to: Sell his power to the highest bidder Burn the system to the ground Or unravel the darkest secret of all... With his modified Conduit overheating and his borrowed glyphs, Lucent’s final fight won’t be in the arena—but against the gods of the new world.

In Between Realms

In Between Realms follows Seyfe, an unnoticed and unremarkable individual, in a world that teeters on the edge of collapse. Struggling to survive in a fractured society after a catastrophic event ravages the modern world, Seyfe’s life is one of quiet desperation. But as the fabric of reality begins to twist and warp, Seyfe finds themselves drawn into an ancient conflict where the very nature of existence is at stake. The apocalypse is not merely physical—something darker and more insidious is at play. An otherworldly force, capable of tearing through time and space, begins to seep into Seyfe’s reality. Sentient beings from forgotten realms appear, alongside horrors that defy comprehension. As Seyfe navigates this chaotic new world, they come to realize that they have an unexpected and powerful connection to the forces threatening to unravel everything. With the appearance of strange allies—beings that blur the lines between the living and the supernatural—Seyfe embarks on a perilous journey to understand their own mysterious power. These sentient entities are key to understanding the deepening rift between realms, and with them, Seyfe uncovers a chilling prophecy. It seems that their destiny is bound to the fate of the world itself: Seyfe is the pivotal figure who could either halt the destruction or accelerate it. Haunted by their past, faced with the terrifying unknown, and forced to confront their growing abilities, Seyfe must decide how much of themselves they’re willing to lose in the battle for survival. As reality bends and the boundaries between the realms of the living and the dead, the human and the inhuman, become ever more blurred, Seyfe realizes that in this new world, there are no clear sides—and trust may be the most dangerous weapon of all.
