Eclipse: The Fractured Realm

Kitso_Jonas_1st
Title: Eclipse: The Fractured Realm Setting: A fractured world torn apart by an ancient war known as The Sundering, where continents drift in the skies and seas are filled with floating islands. The Sacred Eclipse, a celestial artifact that once balanced the realm through Aether, was shattered into shards. These Eclipse Shards are scattered across the realm, each holding immense potential to awaken or corrupt an Eclipser (Aether-user). The realm is now ruled by The World 5, a cabal of godlike Eclipsers who hoard shards and maintain tyrannical power over the divided lands. --- Power System: Aether Pure Aether: Balanced, precise, and elegant. Used by monks, healers, and warriors who maintain harmony. Rare and difficult to master. Raw Aether: Aggressive, explosive, and instinctual. Favored by berserkers, martial artists, and frontline soldiers. Very destructive. Hollow Aether: Forbidden, unstable, and tied to emotions like grief, rage, and fear. Used by cursed beings and rogue Eclipsers. Draws from the void left behind by the Sacred Eclipse’s destruction. Eclipse Shards: Ancient relics that resonate with Aether, amplifying its potency. Can mutate an Eclipser’s abilities or unlock forms similar to Bankai or Devil Union. --- Main Characters Kai Johan Role: Protagonist Aether Type: Raw Aether (later unlocks Hollow Aether) Personality: Reckless, determined, warm-hearted. Starts off naïve but grows into a fierce protector. Background: A street orphan born under a blood moon, said to be a bad omen. Discovers a dormant Eclipse Shard in his body that awakens during a massacre by World 5 agents. Goal: To find all Eclipse Shards and rebuild the Sacred Eclipse to bring peace to the realm. Lysander Hutchman Role: Deuteragonist Aether Type: Pure Aether Personality: Calm, analytical, philosophical. Acts as Kai’s foil. Background: A former disciple of the World 5 who defected after witnessing their cruelty. Now a rogue tactician aiding Kai. Goal: To atone for his past and create a world where Aether is free. Rhea Solarin Role: MC’s Love Interest Aether Type: Raw/Pure Hybrid Personality: Bold, witty, and kind. Often the voice of reason. Background: Heiress to a fallen kingdom wiped out by Fen. Trains as a blade dancer using Aether-infused swords. Bond with Kai: They share the same Eclipse shard type, forming a deep emotional and Aetheric connection. Fumiko Asanari Role: Lysander’s Love Interest Aether Type: Hollow Aether Personality: Mysterious, aloof, internally tormented. Background: A former assassin for World 5’s enforcer division. Her Aether devoured her family’s memories. She now seeks redemption and identity. Bond with Lysander: A slow-burning, intense relationship built on mutual healing. Zerath Kaelthorn Role: Main Villain, Leader of the World 5 Aether Type: All three – but corrupted Hollow Aether dominates. Personality: Charismatic, nihilistic, utterly hateful. Background: Once a prophet who tried to save the Sacred Eclipse but was consumed by the Hollow void. Believes the world must be shattered further to be reborn in his vision. He killed the former world five leader during the war of the fracture/ Sundering and became the leader of the world 5. Goal: To gather all Eclipse Shards and ascend beyond mortal Aether into something divine and absolute.

The Black Cloud Sword: The Rise of Do-Hyun

“Kangho refers to the world of martial artists, akin to the ‘jianghu’ in Chinese wuxia literature.” “The Martial World doesn’t belong to the strong—it belongs to those who endure until the end.” Lee Do-Hyun, an ordinary office worker. Trapped in a monotonous routine, he stumbles upon a mysterious book that changes his life forever. When he opens his eyes, he finds himself in a new world—the Martial World (Kangho)—reborn as the weakest of the weak. With no power to rely on, Do-Hyun is saved by Chun-Hyang at the Pungwolru, a house of pleasure that’s much more than it seems. There, he learns the ways of survival from women who have mastered the art of turning weakness into strength. Quick footwork, exploiting openings, and the psychology of battle—skills not meant for the strong, but for those determined to survive. Then, fate intervenes. Do-Hyun discovers a legendary blade—the Ego’s Sword—a weapon that chooses its own master. The blade whispers, “I will test your will.” With this cursed gift, Do-Hyun rises from obscurity, becoming a beacon of hope for the oppressed. His name spreads through the Martial World, and the once-mocked women of Pungwolru stand proud alongside him. But the Martial World doesn’t change so easily. • Rising prodigies who believe in the supremacy of raw strength • A corrupt leadership within the so-called “just” Beggar’s Sect • And secret powers scheming to revive the legacy of fallen gods… At the heart of these battles, Do-Hyun makes his stand: “I’ll shatter the rules of Kangho. I’ll show them the true meaning of strength.” Will he become the master of the sword—or will the sword master him? The story of a man who became the hope of the weak begins now. #MartialArts #Isekai #Swordmaster #UnderdogRising #ReformingTheMartialWorld

Data & Magic [Progression Fantasy, Isekai, Weak to Strong]

William Shard was on the verge of cracking Wall Street's code. His revolutionary algorithm promised perfect stock predictions, until activating the final sequence triggered a catastrophic surge, tearing him from reality. He awakens in Aver, a world of magic where humans, elves and a dragon battle against a necromantic Dark Lord and his undead legions. Stranded without his tech, William discovers his analytical mind has unlocked a unique power, a 'System' interface overlaying reality, revealing stats, probabilities, and exploitable patterns invisible to others. Swords and sorcery now rule, but William's greatest weapon remains his mind. Can he leverage his unique System to optimize magic, predict enemy movements, and find glitches in the Dark Lord's plans? To survive, and perhaps even thrive, in this brutal new world, William must level up his strange abilities, forge unlikely alliances, and prove that even against ancient magic, data can be the ultimate power. What to Expect: - A slower-paced beginning - Long progression fantasy story, growth will be slow and steady - Isekai, Weak to Strong, with focus on using his intellect and data analysis to solve problems - Unique data magic system (introduced in chapter 23) - LitRPG with stats and growth (introduced in chapter 34) - High Fantasy - elves, dragons, magic - Note: Substantial rewrite to address earlier feedback, while overall plot remains the same, there will be significant amount of changes Schedule - 1 chapter / 2 day Front cover made using AI.
