Shadows of Solaris: The Iron Academy
By @Arnault
Within the gilded walls of Solaris, capital of the Caldia Kingdom, the elite gather at the Royal Military Academy to forge the future's greatest commanders. Among the arrogant nobles enters Dark, an orphan carrying a forbidden mark. While others fight for glory and political favor, Dark fights for survival. Armed with a rare, unstable shadow mana that eats away at his life force, he must navigate deadly mock battles, ruthless aristocratic schemes, and the strict trials of the academy. But the school is not just a training ground; it is a meat grinder preparing for an impending, apocalyptic war. When a beautiful but fierce noblewoman threatens to expose his dangerous magic, Dark is forced into a deadly game of alliance and betrayal. To protect his secrets and survive his first year, he must master his corrupting power before it consumes his sanity, all while realizing that the kingdom's greatest enemies might be the very teachers instructing him.

Der Letzte Schattenkrieger
By @Tade Johannsen
In den Schatten von Neo-Berlin, einer Stadt, die von den Titanen der Arkanen Korporationen beherrscht wird, fristet Kael sein Dasein als Schattenkrieger. Seine Hände, einst Werkzeuge des Kampfes, sind nun von einer mysteriösen Krankheit gezeichnet, die seine arkanen Fähigkeiten schwächt. Doch ein noch tieferer Schmerz nagt an ihm: der Verlust seiner Familie, verschluckt von den undurchsichtigen Machenschaften der Korps. Als ein verzweifelter Hilferuf ihn erreicht - eine junge Technomagierin, deren Wissen die Korporationen um jeden Preis unterdrücken wollen - wird Kael in einen Strudel aus Verrat und Macht gerissen. Er muss seine schwindenden Kräfte beherrschen und seine eigene Dunkelheit konfrontieren, um die Wahrheit über seine Vergangenheit zu enthüllen und die Stadt vor einer drohenden technomagischen Apokalypse zu bewahren.

L'histoire mortel
By @Fuzifu Fuzi
Within a galaxy-sized world defying all physics, Carman, a Maniacéïde composed of pure mana, faces an impossible curse: every spell he casts accelerates his spiritual dissipation. He wields powerful elemental magic and spatial manipulation, but each use brings him closer to absolute non-existence. His people, ethereal beings of concentrated mana, are bound by a cruel biological imperative of sacrifice. As their world, 'The Deadly Story,' begins to unravel under an unknown cosmic threat, Carman must choose: embrace the oblivion of his powers to save his kind, or seek a forbidden truth that could rewrite his very existence. The line between savior and sacrifice blurs in a universe where magic is both life and death.
