    She never asked to lead. She never wanted to be followed. Now, across countless worlds, they call her goddess. Set in a fractured galactic empire after interstellar war, this is a long-form space opera exploring transhumanism, faith, and power across multiple confirmed realities. In the wake of cataclysm, a reluctant figure rises from the ashes of war. Linuka-soldier, survivor, symbol-becomes the unexpected catalyst for something unprecedented: a belief system that spans not just worlds, but entire realities. As her image ascends, so does a movement-one that grows into the first true multiversal religion. You don't need to have read the Galacticide trilogy to begin here. But you're stepping into a universe decades in the making-rich with history, conflict, and consequence. This is a new beginning, and a bold saga in its own right: the rise, rule, and eventual unraveling of an idea powerful enough to unite, or destroy, all that remains. Goddess of the Galacticide blends space opera with psychological drama, mythology, and political warfare on a cosmic scale. Whether you're just arriving or have walked these ruined galaxies before-welcome. The next age begins now.

    2559, during the Banished ambush over Zeta Halo, the battered UNSC Infinity-class supercarrier makes a desperate, malfunctioning slipspace jump to evade destruction. The experimental Forerunner-enhanced drive rips a rift through realities, hurling the ship to an alternate Earth devastated by nuclear apocalypse in 2077. Emerging in 2281 over the Mojave Wasteland, the Infinity crash-lands amid the ruins of Las Vegas, its hull scarring the desert near Hoover Dam. Aboard are ~17,000 survivors: Spartans, Marines, ODSTs, scientists, and the ship's AI Roland (damaged but operational). Simultaneously, in Goodsprings, the female Courier awakens after Benny's betrayal, embarking on her quest for the Platinum Chip-a device that could upgrade Mr. House's Securitron army and tip the balance of power at Hoover Dam. The Infinity's arrival shatters the Mojave's fragile stalemate: NCR, Caesar's Legion, House, and minor factions like the Boomers, Brotherhood of Steel, and Great Khans react to this "star-fallen fortress" and its godlike tech. The Courier, drawn by rumors of "metal gods from the sky," intersects with UNSC survivors, forging an alliance that could reshape the wasteland-or doom it if the Infinity's Forerunner artifacts awaken ancient horrors.

    Oh, look who's back. Did you really think 'The End' meant the end? ​Admit it, you missed us. Or maybe you just enjoy watching Ragia suffer. Either way, welcome to the Encore. ​It's been a year, and things have gone from bad to 'conceptually absurd'. The Reagalus system is lying through its teeth, the Krall are still a nuisance, and Ragia... well... he's as cranky as ever. Especially since he's still carrying The Pen around like a loaded gun in a crowded room, waiting for the universe to force his hand. ​We are hunting for a ghost of the past. A descendant of M'awoto, and I, your Narrator, will be here to document every sarcastic remark, every plot hole, every nonsensical plot, and every moment the universe decides to break its own rules. ​Sit down and get comfortable. The show isn't over until the fat lady sings... nope... until Ragia decides to rewrite the script. Yeah... Welcome to The Chaotic Fanfare Encore!

    "Spartans never die, they just go MIA." For Noble Six, MIA meant waking up on a planet that makes the Covenant look friendly. After the fall of Reach, the "Hyper-Lethal" Spartan-III is ripped from her dying world and spat out onto the neon-soaked, bullet-riddled wasteland of Pandora. With her MJOLNIR armor failing and no UNSC signal in sight, Six is a ghost without a war-until she collapses at the doorstep of the most dangerous woman in the Borderlands: Mad Moxxi. Moxxi is used to mercenaries and madmen, but she's never met a titan of titanium and silence quite like Six. As Handsome Jack sets his sights on the "specimen" from another galaxy, the Queen of the Underdome and the Ghost of Reach forge a desperate alliance. Between high-stakes heists for Eridium-tech and brutal skirmishes against Hyperion, Six must learn to fight for something more than a mission-and Moxxi must decide if she's willing to risk her heart on a soldier who was born to be expendable. In a world where everything eventually rusts, can a Spartan's love be the only thing that holds?

    By unknown means and for unknown proposes the planet Earth is ripped from its orbit around the sun and placed in a near perfect, synchronized orbit around a mysterious purple star. The Earth isn't alone; 16 other planets underwent the same ordeal. Dubbed the Papuru Star, the G4 sized ball of energy was viewed with fear and awe by the inhabitants of the kidnapped worlds. The leadership of the planets form an uneasy Coalition to understand what the star is and find a way to put the planets back in their original spaces. Now, over a 1000 years later, the 100th annual Coalition Carnage Competition is about to begin. Held every ten years, the year long, galaxy spanning martial arts tournament is the special event the inhabitants of nearly every planet eagerly await, cheering their planet's chosen champion. The tournament is fame and fortune for the superstars who compete, entertainment for the masses, and "blessings" for the winning planet but holds dark secrets within its shadows, secrets that if exposed, could lead to the destruction of all life within the Papuru Galaxy.

    In the Imperium's cutthroat markets, Spice Melange is the only real money: scarce, life-giving, produced solely by Arrakis's mighty sandworms. He who controls the spice controls the universe. Until the parasitic Baron Harkonnen and his crony allies flood the CHOAM exchanges with naked paper shorts-trillions in fake claims on spice that can never be delivered. The price craters 30%. Panic spreads: synthetic melange rumors, secret second Arrakis whispers, off-world worm scams. The looters celebrate. Duke Leto Atreides is handed the "toxic" fief of Dune as punishment for his competence. His son Paul, prescient and diamond-handed, sees the golden path: withhold real spice, let the shorts expire, force the greatest buy-in in history. With the fierce, individualistic Fremen, Paul wages economic jihad. The squeeze comes. The paper barons bleed. Reality triumphs over fiction. He who mistakes paper for spice controls nothing. A savage, meme-drenched satire of markets, power, and the eternal war between creators and looters. The spice doesn't just flow-it pumps.

    Cort Gibson can't remember the moment everything went wrong. He only remembers walking out of the Skyfall tunnels, burned and blood-soaked, carrying a dying man, smiling like it was the best day of his life. After that: blank space. A court-martial cleared him. Rumors say he got his team killed and murdered the hostages. Cort doesn't know which is true-and that terrifies him. Because Cort isn't suffering ordinary trauma. Prometheus-an illegal quantum genetic program-started a transformation inside him called the twining, where a new strand of DNA is slowly added to the human helix. And with that change came Van Gogh: a warrior-entity from the quantum realm that speaks inside Cort's head with calm precision, describing death like art. Van Gogh is not a hallucination. It is protection. It protected Cort on Skyfall. Everyone else paid the price. Now Cort hides aboard the Zephyr, an interstellar cargo ship bound for Atlantis, trying to outrun the scientists who need him back-alive before their secret surfaces. But sabotage kills the Zephyr's warp drive, pirates close in, and hijackers strike from within. To buy time, Cort takes command of a state-of-the-art sentient gunship called Gunny and crews it with a Katurin pilot, an android engineer, and a Neo Cat who refuses to be left behind. Cort has fought wars before, but this time the battle is inside him.

    The war is over. The Reapers are gone. But for Commander Jane Shepard, the battle for her soul has just begun. In the final moments of the Reaper War, the legendary "Butcher of Torfan" made the ultimate choice. She activated the Crucible, wiped out synthetic life, and secured a victory built on the bones of allies and the ashes of civilizations. But the feedback from the Destroy pulse didn't just kill the Reapers-it shattered Shepard's mind. Buried under the rubble of the Citadel, Shepard survived. But the woman who took that iconic final breath is gone. In her place is a "Jane" with the mind of a child-innocent, frightened, and blissfully unaware of the galactic atrocities she committed to win the war. Now, hidden away on a quiet estate on Earth, Dr. Karin Chakwas fights a new kind of war: a battle to protect a broken hero from a galaxy that wants her head. As Shepard's memories begin to return in jagged, terrifying flashes, she must reckon with her "Renegade" past through the eyes of the child she has become. Can the woman who broke the galaxy find redemption in the silence of its aftermath? Or will the "Red Death" wake up and realize that some sins can never be washed away?

    == She was never meant to be a fleet commander. == But even on Earth, Svenja Kroenke could see the patterns others missed - in robotics, in war games, in the quiet math of movement. She didn't dream of battle. But battle found her anyway. Then, without warning, she was extracted - not by a government, but by a mysterious Order older than the Jedi - and thrown into a galaxy not only far, far away... but thousands of years in the past. Now, in a time of starships and empires, Svenja must adapt. Not with weapons, but with systems. With logic. With empathy. And with a mind sharp enough to challenge the Empire's greatest tactician: *Grand Admiral Thrawn*. But there's a catch: *She cannot return home - not to her world, not to her time - until Thrawn is gone.* As the New Republic falters and old enemies rise, Svenja rises too - from student to strategist, from exile to admiral. But beneath the uniform lies a woman who still dreams of gardens, poetry, and the man she left behind. This is not just a war story. It's a story of exile, resilience, and the quiet power of coherence. And maybe - just maybe - of finding your way home. It is not written for readers seeking fast-paced action (although there is some), personal heroics, clear moral binaries, or emotionally comforting resolutions; it assumes patience, tolerance for ambiguity, and interest in ethical complexity over narrative gratification.
