Tanmoy_Mondal_3682
In the peaceful kingdom of Aerindale, a terrible betrayal blooms within the royal palace. When the beloved newborn princess mysteriously vanishes, the kingdom mourns while the King’s scheming sister secretly raises her own daughter as heir to the throne. Far from the palace, a poor couple finds a baby girl floating down the river and raises her as their own. Named Aria, the girl grows up with a kind heart but lives a life of hardship, mistreated by her adoptive sister and denied even the simplest dreams. Fate twists again when the kingdom announces a royal ball to unveil the future princess bride. Forbidden from attending, Aria’s life changes forever when a mysterious fairy appears, transforming her into a vision of nobility. At the ball, she locks eyes with Prince Damon, and a love both magical and dangerous is born. But love alone won’t be enough. As her hidden past awakens and enemies rise in shadows, Aria must uncover her true identity, fight for her rightful place, and protect the kingdom she was born to rule. Will her courage and love conquer the lies that stole her crown—or will history repeat its tragedy?

Now you see me now you don't

In the vast and enchanted realm of Virelia, where arcane empires rise and fall beneath drifting skylands and beastkin walk alongside men, Zayne Caldris was a boy who had everything—wit sharper than steel, beauty that drew eyes in every town, and a terrifyingly adaptive mind that made him a natural in any discipline he pursued. But above all, he had peace. He lived a quiet, happy life with his mother and younger sister in the tranquil edge-town of Bellshade, far from the chaos of the royal capitals and mage wars. Though the world offered endless thrills, Zayne found most things boring—except the laughter of his sister and the warm meals shared under their lantern-lit roof. Until it all burned. One night, his home was turned to ash, his family butchered by unknown hands. No witnesses. No known enemies. No clear motive. All that remained was a single white feather, scorched at its edge, left deliberately on the bloodied windowsill. With nothing left to lose, Zayne vanishes into the underworld of Virelia—where killers wear crowns, mages deal in secrets, and truths are traded like currency. On a relentless path of vengeance, Zayne’s true potential awakens. He becomes a master of stealth, deception, and manipulation. A ghost who leaves no prints, a face that never stays the same. As he journeys through the fractured layers of Virelia’s politics, sorcery, and ancient blood feuds, Zayne will rise—shaped by loss, driven by justice, and haunted by a question that only he can answer: Who left the feather?

Shattered: A SAO Tale (Sword Art Online)

What if the world's most expected, anticipated vrmmorpg turned out to be the largest, cruelest experiment ever? What if the world's biggest genius turned out to be a sick sociopath? What if 10.000 men and women, children and elderly were trapped in a castle in the sky? What if your life didn't belong only to you? What if fighting was your only option? What if... That was you? -------------------------- Hello, everyone! Gonna be quick here, and list some major points about Shattered which I know many of you will be concerned: Point 1: Just like every other SAO fan out there, I too felt like we received too little of Kirito's and his friends' adventures on Aincrad. There's so much untapped potential, and I plan to make the best of it. So, this story will be covering all 100 floors of Aincrad, if possible. Of course, there might be some skips along the way, and until it's published, the story is always prone to changes, but at least that's the base plan. Point 2: Th MC won't be Kirito, but an original character (an OC, as we like to call them). You will discover more about him as the novel progress, but I can tell you that, one: he is just another person trapped in SAO, and won't have any previous knowledge of the game, and two, it is not a self-insert, but rather, like I already mentioned, just another player. For those of you who read my first novel Broke (shameless plug-in), you can think of him like Dageer, just someone trying their best to survive and to make sure his friends do the same. Point 3: The story will start cannon-ish, but, unlike Broke, it will at some point diverse from cannon (where it will take us, I have no idea). Point 4: I plan to write about the Aincrad and ALO arcs of SAO. As of now, I don't know if we will reach GGO, and most probably not Alicization. Point 5 (and last): This is NOT a harem story. It will also not be one of those novels where the MC ends up with a single girl, but has tons of others pinning for him (as for who the female lead is, I believe you should discover easily, I'm not that great at writing romance). In fact, one of the things that bothered me about SAO the most was that while Kirito only got together with Asuna (and will still do in this fanfic) he had four or five other girls which were left without resolution. Expect that to change. Disclaimer: I don't own the Sword Art Online franchise (obviously) so please don't sue me. Enjoy the novel! And, to start as cliché as possible: LINK START!
