Shattered: Beyond End [RECODED]

"You’re not a killer, Suho. You’re the kind of catalyst that can break the world… or remake it." The world has already ended—it just hasn’t stopped moving. District 9 rots beneath the boots of mercs, junkies, and failed heroes. The Administration runs everything. And the Corrupted? They’re not monsters. They’re mirrors. For Kun and Suho, surviving this hell has never been about dreams—it’s been about duct tape, ramen, and making sure their backs don’t hit the wall at the same time. But when a strange recruiter drops a card marked COUNTERS Academy, everything fractures. Now they’re part of Squad 13. Rookies with no rank. Brothers with too much history. Thrown into a dorm with a gremlin striker, a corporate heiress, a sleepy enigma, and a war-weary veteran who didn’t ask for command. This isn’t a hero’s journey. This is trauma, bureaucracy, fire drills, and flirtation at knife-point. This is the slow, painful evolution of strangers into something like family. Because in this world, love doesn’t come easy. Trust takes years. And surviving the first dive into Counterside might take more than any of them have left. Cyberpunk meets emotional grit. Squad drama meets found family. Welcome to hell. Welcome to Oblivion.

The Mirrorbound

In a world where reality blurs between magic and modernity, one broken mirror awakens a forgotten destiny. Liam Gray is just an ordinary young man — lonely, directionless, stuck in a mundane life where success feels like a distant dream. But everything changes when a mysterious mirror in his room cracks open… not to shatter, but to reveal another world. From that mirror steps Aeris Virelle, a fierce and secretive warrior from a magical realm on the brink of collapse. She seeks the fragments of an ancient spellbook — the Liminal Codex — a key that can restore balance… or destroy everything. As Liam is unwillingly dragged into her quest, he learns that he isn’t just a bystander. He is bound by blood, power, and fate to the shattered past of both worlds. Haunted by visions and hunted by corrupted forces, Liam joins a band of unlikely allies: Kael, a blunt but noble wind-based warrior with a soft spot for dumb jokes, Nyra, a spirited summoner whose tiny summons love stealing food and causing chaos — but whose powers are growing every day. Together, they must traverse deadly landscapes, fight cursed guardians, uncover ancient truths, and learn to trust one another. But Aeris is hiding a truth of her own — reporting to a heroine who may not be what she seems. And lurking behind every turn is a dark force, manipulating hearts and histories alike: the shadowy being that destroyed Elira’s people and tore open the world long ago. As realms collide and fragments fall into place, Liam must decide: is he a hero destined to save both worlds… or a sacrifice meant to seal them?
