It is the 41st Millennium. For more than a hundred centuries The Emperor has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth. He is the Master of Mankind by the will of the gods, and master of a million worlds by the might of his inexhaustible armies. He is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of Technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the Imperium for whom a thousand souls are sacrificed every day, so that he may never truly die.To be a man in such times is to be one amongst untold billions. It is to live in the cruelest and most bloody regime imaginable. These are the tales of those times. Forget the power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never to be re-learned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim dark future there is only war....And idiots....A LOT of idiots.And Reyna Avila Ramírez-Arellano of the Adeptus Custodes has to deal with them all.Emperor help her...…

The world is hardly ever what it seems.We have seen our heroes fight monsters, gods, titans, and even the very Earth itself.But, there were rules and procedures to be followed.There were prophecies that defined the path to victory.Now the enemy has no limits, no safeties, no restraints.OrMortals aren't as blind and powerless as the gods seem to think...This is a completed story in told alternating POVs with Percy, Nico, Jason, and Piper being the main focus. The first several chapters are a bit rough, but my writing improved as it progresses. I will edit the early chapters to better match the quality of the later chapters when I have some spare time.This is not a story you should approach lightly, as there are numerous triggers including, but not limited to: blood, torture, death, and attempted suicide.…

Kronos was called the crooked one for good reason.Assaulting Olympus when a prophecy, despite what the Fates say, was rigged against him? Merely a ruse to something greater.No, with Gaea rising and the emperors of old waiting in the wings, it was not the opportune time to take Olympus. Let them think that they had vanquished him. Let them enjoy their false victory. Let his children and their offspring defeat the opposition for him, clearing a path for his ascension. But for now, he will march willingly to his defeat. As with the (unwilling) assistance of the child of Hermes, two of the three cyclopes that forged weapons of the Olympians, his most trusted titans, and an unfulfilled prophecy, Olympus will be his.It's only a matter of time...*Quasi-sequel to Shattered, but reading is not required*…

Two weeks.Two weeks off was all the praetor of New Rome was granted, and Reyna fully intended to make them count. She was going to stay in her apartment, eat nothing but Ben and Jerry's and takeout, and watch the Food Network until Guy Fieri took her pureed mind to Flavor Town. Just two weeks of peace and quiet with no Frank to hound, no Hazel telling her to be nicer to the baby-man, and best of all: no paperwork. But an unexpected (and unwelcome) visit from the Daughters of Athena and Aphrodite forces her across the sea to a land that is steeped in magic, mystery, and Doctor Who merch. And now she's waking up with world's worst hangover, as some ancient queen is kidnapping Annabeth while screaming about her hate-on for Romans.Yay...…

The first time I saw the color, I thought it was a sign that things were going to work out.How could I not see those vibrant purples and cobalt blues framed in a swirling aura of chimerical colors lighting up the rumbling midnight storm clouds as a bad thing? How was I to know then that this color composed of many, but still one, was an omen while the world around us burned? That it wasn't to be our rainbow from God signaling our salvation from the madness that consumed those outside our borders? That the hues I failed to recreate with my crayons and pencils on the floor of my brother's cabin would twist and corrupt everything bathed in its light?…

Where do I begin?The beginning would be the obvious answer, but I'm not sure when this unnatural darkness entered the world. Was it when I married the love of my life and was blindsided by the revelation that her son, my stepson, was a son of the Greek god Poseidon? Perhaps it was when Percy returned home after lulling Gaea to an eternal slumber? Maybe the earth goddess was protecting us from this crawling chaos that has burrowed its way into the hearts and minds of my fellow man? Or was it when Percy and Annabeth began to intermingle with the children of other pantheons? Maybe there was some arcane rule that was broken by the act?…

Poseidon wasn't surprised when her messenger appeared in his chambers. Too much had happened as of late for her to turn a blind eye to. Kronos' attempt to return to power, Gaea's awakening, Apophis rising, the delaying of Ragnarök, the rumbling within the Maya, the nightmares permeating the Dream Time, the resurrection of Celtic heroes, and the disappearance of Lü Dongin, all having happened within a period of a just few years that was short even by mortal standards. No, he wasn't surprised to see the winged-serpent appear before him and deliver her summons.But it did scare him.…
