Summary
The air crackled, sunlight glinting off the blade that sliced through limbs with no-uncertain ease. "You are wanted by the Akademiya; any resistance is futile. If you do not come willingly, I will bring you to justice by any means necessary."
For a moment, there was little to no expression on her face. Whatever shock had been in her system had boiled away, leaving a state of apathy behind he wasn't particularly familiar with. It was pleading, begging, anger and desperate fury that he reckoned with and grown to expect - not this unwavering stare of her eyes into his.
"Is this how you repay people who save your life? You threaten them with 'justice'?" The curl of her lip was sharp; he knew it was out of disgust. "Who are you to accuse me of committing a crime?"
"The General Mahamatra."
It was Six Cardinal Sins within which he operated, dared to hold his head high to. But, it was when those sins blurred into something man-made, something erring on the side of human arrogation, that his own steadfast rules began to judge him on the order of ma'at.
The rainforest or the desert. Justice or impudence. A Potter or the General.

Summary
“Do all women of your country disregard a man’s word?”
There was no change in her expression. She simply remained as she was - standing upright in clothes he had not seen before. Had he not been irritated, he might have commented on the fine thread work of the skirt, or the pleats of the fabric that adorned her shoulder. “So, so. Do men of your country not like help?”
“I am capable of managing these lands. Your hands are delicate and aren’t suitable for this work.”
“Unsuitable. Not incapable,” she replied, making Kun grunt. Fortunately, his glamour covered the plume of smoke that escaped his nostrils. “It is not right to be an idle guest.”
Suddenly, he found himself missing the solemn and quiet nature of the Souls that drifted along the river. At least they were predictable, following the unspoken yet intrinsic rules of Diyu. In this realm, there was no such order. “Must you argue with everything I say?”
“I am not arguing.”
Heaven's will was absolute. Any transgressions would not be easily forgiven; In the eyes of the realm above, all were equal.
If only Qian Kun knew repentance would come second in the throes of his heart's desires.

Summary
Instantly, Wonho looked his way - ears catching onto the slightest sound and Ten was taken aback. The Ren waved, his limbs too stiff to return the gesture.
“Are you a Ren also?” Wonho asked when he was close enough, the timber of his voice achingly familiar - a hazy dream that Ten couldn’t quite recall. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen you before.”
What was a follower to a God? A civilian to a Ren?
What was he to ‘Wonho’?
Would he be struck down if he spoke?
(No, he wouldn’t. He knew this like he knew the place of every bloodcell in his body. But there was something else that resounded within him.)
"No."
One might argue that there is little difference between a hero and a civilian: bravery, hubris, perhaps loyalty.
Could a Ren breathe in this foul odour, tolerate how his words - once prophetic - were now nothing more than heresay? Could a civilian listen to inaudible whispers, feel the sting of his teeth breaking skin?Did it really matter when it all bled into one?

Summary
Kihyun was nothing but a clueless little boy - the sleek polaroid that was nestled between his fingers was more than enough evidence of this. It was of his mother's infidelity; the miscarriage; the end of his family. And, most important of all, his newly discovered brother:
Liu Yangyang.

Summary
To know that the generations before him had tilled these lands, planted each seed, tended to each crop - it was enough for Hyunwoo. The simple life of a lumberjack was all he needed to feel fulfilled.
Yet, he, alone, could not eat every fruit from his ancestor's trees.

Summary
To Kunhang, this world is foreign. He had always loved the moons, the way they had powered his heart and created the home that he knew and adored. But now, all he knows is sunlight, and he wonders how much it would burn before it became his normal.

Only when the winter is cold do we see that Pine and Cypress are the last to wither. by MA_XT

Summary
The tidings of winter were brutal. The weak became weaker and the deprived grew despondent. Spring was mere months away yet the cold likened it to an out of reach mirage.
And it was during these months that snow did what snow did best: It fell.
('Maybe there is a certain kind of beauty to it after all, Zhisong.')

Summary
Jungwoo had always thought Dejun was gorgeous - as did anyone else with eyes. But he couldn't help but linger on the shine of his eyes and the way he was so shy sometimes. Really, it was only natural that he would do whatever he could to maintain this idyllic relationship as it was.

Summary
For Twelve (12!) whole years, Kunhang the Hulijing had been unable to find someone to sleep with. Whether that was through a fault of his own or something that had cursed him, he had no clue. But, now that he had a human to help him, maybe he had finally had a chance of doing something other than cleaning chicken excrement.

Summary
It was the same thing that had always been said; the kingdom was prosperious, the citizens were well fed, the allies were satiated and had no qualms. And yet, even as the world seemed to brighten, there was no light without darkness to precede it.

Summary
Androids were things made in the shadows of human insatiability. The feeling of being a creator was second to none but what could you do when the euphoria turned to deep rooted horror?
What really made you human?

Ten could barely remember the last time he had used his rotting lungs to breathe in fresh air. He was oh, so bored.

Summary
He was bad person: he had to be. Otherwise, he wouldn't have to struggle for air with every trepid breath. If he wasn't, then he wouldn't have only a few days to live.
You don't need to pretend anymore, Dejun-ah.

Summary
Jungwoo wasn’t one to spend his time playing games and fawning over drawings. But, then again, who was he to turn down an otome game that featured out of this world characters and a compelling story line (as well as hot fictional men)?

Summary
Of course Yangyang didn't pay attention to the customers that came in, who would when there was so many a day? But, maybe he could make an effort to look out for the one person that always came in looking a little rougher than she did the day before.

Summary
The story of The Originals was one that had been passed down from generation to generation - often becoming misconstrued with pieces lost to time. But what really happened for people to be connected as one?
