In my youth, I always enjoyed watching the men of the small island Chioro, south of what men now call Japan. It was one of those islets with little population, some fertile land, calm and gentle seas, but little navigated by the fear that held men to the place. But this isn't a story of my own, it's actually what makes Chioro unique. At least, in the eyes of a dragon.

“Eu dificilmente vejo por aí histórias ambientadas no Japão Antigo ( Que remontam antes da unificação pelo povo Yamato - ou pelo menos é isso que consegui imaginar). Ao meu ver é um universo vasto para se trabalhar e também desconhecido, dando liberdade de criação. A mitologia japonesa é mais misteriosa do que aparenta e existe uma lacuna gigantesca em meio as lendas e mitos deste país. Hikari poderia ser muito bem uma lenda oficial sobre os primeiros Dragões Japoneses, antes vistos como bestas e temidas pela população. Remonta em minha mente uma alegoria de que Dragões Japoneses ( assim com os dragões ocidentais, curiosamente) se atraiam por coisas que brilham. Trata de forma poética essa atração que Umetsuya tem pela alma/personalidade reluzente de Hikari. Tudo que posso dizer, resumindo esse texto, é que essa oneshot honra a história dos meus antepassados. E eu digo isso com toda a sinceridade do mundo, sem superestimar a escrita simples que a autora insere para descrever o conto. E quando eu digo simples é num bom sentido, pois lendas são contadas, assim, sem muitos detalhes para que se espalhem pelos quatro cantos do mundo enriquecendo o imaginário de quem lê ou de quem ouve. Parabéns Layla! E como eu disse nos reviews: gostaria de ler mais oneshots como essa. ( Primeira recomendação que eu faço em todos esses anos de Nyah! Espero ter me saído bem haha)”

The world has ended. There is no future left on the outside, nor humanity waiting to be rescued. What exists is a reality preserved by the will of a single person who keeps the memory of the world and everything that remains of humanity. The problem is that not everyone agrees that this existence should continue... Eine, a survivor of the catastrophe that destroyed human reality, dedicates her existence to ending the last traces of the people who were once at the center of these events. But, being unable to interfere directly in a dream that still continues, she must find hosts among the people who inhabit it. Her new attempt is Claire Williams. At nineteen, Claire has very ordinary concerns: university, the debts she took on to study, and the future she believes she is building. Now, however, she shares her own consciousness with a young man who knows a reality she cannot accept. As the boundaries between memory and existence begin to dissolve, those who walk between the two extremes will have to confront a question for which there may be no right answer: when the world has already ended, what does it mean to keep living?

There is a kind of silence that weighs more than any war cry. It is the silence of the gap between the oaks across the frozen ground, the steam of a soup shared only with longing and the constant fear of waiting for someone who may never return. In Patavium, Aemilia became the lady of a home haunted by uncertainty. Torn between the relentless responsibility of governing the land and the intimate torment of not knowing her husband's fate, she refuses to succumb to despair. To protect the property and those who depend on it, Aemilia will have to find strength where only solitude remains, proving that dignity and love can be shields as sturdy as iron.

Some doors, once opened, can never be closed again. Helena is in no hurry, nor is she afraid, and she does not let herself be swayed by pretty words. But every rose has its thorn. When two such different presences cross her path, she will discover that it is not possible to keep everything under control at all times. One calms, the other sets ablaze. One is shelter, the other is storm. For even the gentlest calm holds a flame, and within the storm itself there is already a harbinger of tranquility - each heart carries within itself both the flame and the breeze that can extinguish it. Be careful not to lose yourself. The labyrinth is yours, and only you will find the way out.

Some memories don't need a name to become impossible to forget. One night. Two strangers. No promises. Beatrice Cross never imagined she would run into the man who, for a few hours, made the world disappear. With no names or expectations, that night should have stayed in the past. Until she recognizes him. Ethan Harrington is everything she should avoid: arrogant, impeccable, and dangerously capable of awakening feelings she spent a year trying to forget. Now, however, there is an obstacle between them: Mark Sterling. The man Beatrice chose. The best friend Ethan never thought he would have to lie to. Between inevitable encounters, lingering glances, and a tension impossible to ignore, the attraction threatens to cross every boundary. Beatrice knows what she could lose. Ethan knows the weight of loyalty. And Mark trusts them both without imagining that the danger is closer than he could ever suspect. Because some choices don't just destroy relationships. They destroy everything you tried to protect. And sometimes, the cruelest lie is pretending nothing happened.
