"There was lots of moonshine, of both visible and liquid kind. Some casual blindness, a bit for facts and a bit for logic. Naturally there was a pyramid as well, as all good stories need one at minimum. Schemes were what started it all. Once upon a time, as if it was a fairy tale." Mani mused between hiccups, but then got interrupted by Yax flipping their table "It's not a fairy tale! I did not sign up for no friggin fantasy! It's a proper science fiction! Sci-fi! With technology and stuff.." Cid pulled him down by his shoulder "Sit down! Look what mess you made.." and then started cleaning it up without a second thought. Ivory giggled while trying to snatch another bottle from Jone who pushed him back while seriously stating "All technology at certain point starts resembling magic to those who do not understand it." "Hear, hear" Blaze confirmed from his spot on the floor with one hand waving up and showing a peace sign for some reason. Next to him, twins were out and snoring already. Mani pursed his lips and looked up into the sky. There was no moon, just gazillions of stars twinkling in a chorus of light. He will stick to it being magic. It's not like what he thinks can change anything. He hiccuped again. Yax settled down and got another bottle of whatever was brewed in this batch. He had to admit some parts were rather mystical. Like this holy potion. Or Mani. Mani was most definitely something magical. But he is not going to say it. And no one can know what he thinks to himself. He grinned, satisfied by himself and his skill to keep secrets. Next to him, Cid rolled his eyes, there goes Yax, spilling the beans to whoever wants to listen his 'secret thoughts'. Not like anyone was sober enough to pay attention. "Time to end this party." He said while standing up and dragging Yax towards the tent he shared with Ivory. "Tomorrow is another day where we have to rise up and do our best to save the world." Even he did not believe it any more. The jungle was endless, beasts were fierce, and gods above were laughing louder and louder from that abyss they call home.
"I'm not here to play games, Your Highness," Danae whispered, her eyes locked on the prince's. "I'm here to uncover the truth.

The story about Princess Moonlight that comes to earth! Rembulan or Lunaria, she's the supreme queen ruler of the lunar planet. Her dominion stretched across all kingdoms of the moon, including the mighty Arkei Kingdom—the greatest and strongest of the celestial realms, commanded by her will alone. Lunaria was a sacred sovereign, revered by kings and commonfolk alike, for her divine blessings allowed their civilizations to thrive. She was the immortal embodiment, destined never to perish… unless she unleashed her greatest power. In the year 922 of Lunarism (2100 AD on Earth), war ravaged the moon's kingdoms. Chaos reigned. Everything lay in ruins, kings were slaughtered, and the scramble for power blinded all to reason. Overwhelmed by grief and compassion, Lunaria chose to relinquish that power to shield her people from the savagery of power-hungry warriors and tyrants. She bore this burden alone, for she was a princess of purity and grace, one who abhorred the radicals clawing at her realm's foundations. When she activated her primordial force, her own kingdom—the Moonlight Kingdom—became a sanctuary, the sole survivor of the cataclysm, shielded by an ethereal barrier born of her sacrifice. Yet, in the aftermath, stripped of her power and vulnerable, Lunaria was sent to Earth by Ambalan, her elder brother, who vowed to continue safeguarding their people. Ambalan could not bear to see his sister perish, especially now that she no longer possessed the strength to shield even herself. Thus, the moon's luminous queen fell to the mortal world—a radiant soul exiled, her legacy etched in starlight and sorrow. Yogy 3 February 2025®

Finally she said something. “Why can’t you stay?” I asked. “Because everyone I ever loved and thought loved me back left and betrayed me in the end. I can’t be sure you won’t do same.

WARNING: It's More Than 18+ Rated... It's 21+ Rated. Don't Dive Into This Adventure Of A Book If You Are A Minorrrrrrrr!!!! (Minor or not, I know you would dare to dive in anyway so, Rubberduck!) . . SYNOPSIS It would have been better if something miraculous like transmigration or rebirth had happened to Ashton West, but in his case, life was just too damn harsh and unforgiving. Being a ‘Hermaphrodite,’ a man born with a woman's hole yet having a penis, his father abandoned him and his mother when he was just three years old. His mother had to conceal his Intersex identity, but as Ashton West grew, he became increasingly feminine in appearance, voice, and demeanor, resembling a woman more than a man. His mother didn't live long either, suffering from heart attacks whenever Ashton West exhibited behaviors typically associated with women. Yet, he managed to make it through high school. Determined to improve his life, Ashton West found himself entangled with the Glory Boyz, two wealthy identical twin brothers. Sean Glory, one of the twins, was an absolute jerk, constantly reminding Ashton West of his perceived abnormality despite his efforts to keep it hidden. Mason Glory, the other twin, was more understanding, and Ashton West developed feelings for him while enduring his brother, Sean's taunts and torment. One day, Ashton West confessed his feelings to Mason, and they ended up spending the night together. But the next morning, he received a call from… ‘Mason Glory’? Who had he actually slept with? Was it Sean Glory? No! He had to flee. If it had been Sean, this confirmed his Intersex status to Sean, which was dangerous. Under the new government, Hermaphrodites were either surgically altered back to males or, worse, killed. Sean Glory had a big mouth; Ashton had to run! Four years later, Ashton West returned, now going by a random name August Farley. He had transformed himself into a more masculine and muscular man, though he had not undergone surgery and was still a hermaphrodite. He arrived with a son who bore a striking resemblance to the twins and vowed to reclaim his lost love, Mason, and seek revenge on Sean, somehow. But who was this figure that looked like an older Sean and Mason, and a larger version of his son, Reed Farley? “Mr. August, meet King Von Blackstone, the grandmaster of the King and Glory family, and the uncle of the famous Glory Boyz; Mason Glory and Sean Glory.” August Farley/ Ashton West: … A/N: Bear with this Author, I don't really know how to cover the ideas of the book in short and then make it into a synopsis to you guys but, I'd advice y'all to give it a read up to 8 chapters.
