Of Ashes and Prayers

Ain_8473
Rakkagiri is a trusted caporegime in the Liotta family—dutiful, devout, and unflinchingly loyal. His life is defined by silence, ritual, and the careful containment of feeling. Then comes the order: eliminate a liability. And the target is Keiseimaru. Keiseimaru is everything Rakkagiri is not: volatile, elusive, sharp-tongued, and dangerously beautiful. Once an informant, now a threat, Keiseimaru knows too much—and worse, he’s the man Rakkagiri once loved without ever saying the words aloud. As old wounds reopen and loyalties falter, the two men find themselves drawn back into each other’s orbit. In the shadows of a brutal world that punishes softness, their bond reignites—not in redemption, but in reckoning. What begins as duty unravels into memory, grief, and a final, irreversible act of mercy. Sentimental Fools is a quiet tragedy about queer longing, impossible love, and what remains when affection is forced to live in silence. Lyrical, atmospheric, and unflinchingly intimate, it’s a story of two men who never asked to be saved—and the gunshot that made sure no one would be.

Cultivator vs. Galaxy: Rebirth in a World of Mechas

William Valehart was the absolute—supreme god of all existence. He ruled not a world, not a galaxy, but everything. Unbound by time, space, or death, he was omnipotent, eternal… and alone. By his own will, he sealed away his infinite power and chose to reincarnate. Not in defeat, but in search of something more. He boarded a world-sized ship and cast himself into the unknown, embracing mortality. He died—and awoke again. Reborn in a new universe, aboard the same titanic vessel, William finds himself in Urenus, a galaxy far larger and richer than the Milky Way. It’s here that a portion of humanity—just 5 to 8 percent of its population after conquering over half the Milky Way across millennia of war—has arrived through a now-vanished wormhole. Cut off from the rest of their civilization, they’re stranded, under siege, and barely holding out. Urenus is not unclaimed. Native civilizations, empowered by mana and superior numbers, have rallied against the human invaders. Advanced mech pilots are humanity’s last hope—warriors who push past mortal limits—but they are too few to win. That’s when William Valehart intervenes. With fragments of his sealed power awakening and his god-ship still under his control, he saves a human fleet from destruction—and learns of their fragile, desperate stand. He makes a choice. Not as a god who demands worship. Not as a savior bound by duty. But as a force reborn—who will fight beside them, reshape the war, and carve a place in this new universe. Because he can
