A Crown of Ashes, A Throne of Swords

King_Leren
In the aftermath of a devastating war, the once-mighty land of Eldros lies fractured, its noble houses weakened, constant wars, and chaos rising from the shadows. Amid the turmoil, a young noble—Lord Ashborn Blackwood—is granted a fief at the edge of the empire, bordering the cursed swamps of Lythandor. But Ashborn awakens with no memory of his past, his body wounded by a poisoned arrow and his identity clouded in mystery. As he grapples with fragments of a life he can’t recall, he must also confront a land plagued by corruption, unrest, and the whispering taint of Chaos—a malevolent force that twists men into monsters. Armed with only his instinct, a knight's discipline, and the loyalty of a few trusted retainers, Ashborn must rebuild from ruins, earn the trust of his people, and defend his lands from enemies both seen and unseen. But as his memories begin to return, so too do secrets that threaten to unravel Ashborn’s soul. In a world where loyalty is fleeting and power is survival, Ashborn must decide: will he rise as a just ruler, or fall as a pawn of darker designs?

Born Again, Broke and Beautiful

Alma was filthy rich. Not just “two-holiday-homes” rich — we’re talking private chefs, security guards, family with political ties, the whole luxury package. But none of it mattered. Because Alma was also... hideous. Unattractive in the kind of way people don’t even joke about. She had no friends, no presence, no value to her ultra-conservative family beyond “quietly stay out of the photos.” She didn’t work, didn’t go out, didn’t even get to be mean like the rich girls in dramas. She was just… there. Forgotten in a golden cage. Then one day, she died. And woke up in someone else's body — seventeen years old, absolutely stunning… and dirt poor. No family. No bank account. No backstory. Just a ratty apartment, a school uniform two sizes too tight, and a mysterious note telling her to attend an elite high school immediately. So she does. And this time, she’s not wasting the opportunity. Her goal is simple: Get rich again. With this face? She plans to enjoy every cent of it. But the school she lands in is brutal — full of rich heirs, geniuses, cold-blooded perfectionists and social rules no one bothers to explain. They don’t know who she is. And if they did? They’d make sure she never climbed past the first step. But Nina — that’s what she calls herself now — didn’t come back from the dead to stay at the bottom. She’s smart. She’s gorgeous. She’s faking it. And she’s about to start playing their game better than they ever expected.
