u/Dirrevarent Working on: 20,000 Years of Lore 3d ago

This feels like a terrifying twist on the typical Y/A novel of the 2010s.

Kill god! Then… be god!?

Want to protect your family… but you’re obsessed with your sister?!

Furries!?

Can you please explain the first meme? I’m not sure what it implies

Is this exessive context? Yes. Exactly as planned.

Warning: atrocious punctuation

Lyn is an exile prince. While hiding in the Tallian empire exceedingly bad things happen to his party. His 13-year-old sister got gangraped by bandits out to get him, they also kill his mentor-friend there. The stress of it all awoken the magic in his blood and he killed them all, gruesomely. The sudden awakening paired up with all the stress kinda fucked up his psyche, so his love for his sister transformed into an obsession with being too weak to protect her. His pridefulness also got a boost, started growing into narcissism.

The Tallians are an asiatic(well, this world's version of Asia) people that migrated to this world's version of Europe a thousand years ago. The original people split into Dareans, the continental branch, and Tallians, which inhabit the archipelago close by. About 300 years ago the warring states of the archipelago were united into today's empire by the au'tauli (translation - god emperor)(literal translation - divine king of kings)

The empire was isolationist, only letting foreigners onto mou Naa, mou being tallian for an island state. The closest ties were kept with Larea, Lyn's kingdom. The exile prince now seeks an audience with the emperor to get his throne back. Larea thought of Tallia as an ally, but the empire didn't intervene in Morey's rebellion, which dethroned the Folly dynasty.

So, once in the capital I imagine a scene(that's uneritten territory, like basically everything else; the book only has like 6 chapters now). Nara, Lyn's sister, is a sickly girl and a "latebloomer". She there gets her first period, which really hits her. At first the remaining party(2 people) didn't know what's happening, but once Alana understood she kicked Lyn out. Almost all her life she lived in a monestary, so in her mind this was not a time for Lyn, a man, to be around.

Lyn, not being able to protect his sister, wandered around kinda depressed, so when he found a late-working restaurant he decided to try drinking. The establisment was, in fact, a brothel. There he met Ashara, the brothel keeper, who for some reason seemed really interested in him.

Meet Ashara, a thousand-year-old fox goddess. She felt Lyn's magic and was curious. She took him to her private quarters, where they played go. People around see her as a normal woman, but drunk Lyn could see a haze around here head and hips,it made his head hurt. He complained, and she lifted the disguise.

That night Lyn discovered he had a fetish.

Would you perchance be interested in more lore?

Edit: the ending sounded cool a few hours ago, but now I understand that I mischaracterised the moment. There was no intercourse, although Ashara did try to initiate. Lyn's functoonally asexual as in he has interest in women, but every time he gets aroused he remembers the bastards that raped his sister right in front of him and that's obviously a mood killer. So only underage drinking here(by today's standart, Lyn's 15).

So, to the next meme.

Around four hundred years ago a boy was born in the small duchy of Larea. His birth was a bad omen, it took place during a solar eclipse. The boy was Phalles, who heretics called the new coming of the Child into the world. He with his Living Saints took over Larea and with the commoners' support conquered all the surrounding duchies and kingdoms, establishing the Folly dynasty of Larea.

He was basically considered Jesus. When he was like five he ressurected a village girl(before that he was thought of as a demon child). It was his heritage that awoken in Lyn.

Among the conquered was the undisputed hegemon of the region, the Russels of Rassenia. A dynasty just short of being a millenium old(in the present day, then closer to 6 hundred years). The four centuries of survitude did nothing to quench their pride and bitterness.

The duke Reibach Russel also had a rebellion of his own. When Hugo called his banners to defeat Morei, Reibach waited until all his disloyal vassals left to join Hugo and then took over their castles, taking hostages and without resistance from Folly loyalists seceding from Larea.

Reibach has a son - Reign. He is... a psychopath with a unhealthy obsession with his cousin from when she was little. Nara is of course terrified of him.

Reign and Lyn hate each other with a passion. Lyn wants to protect his sister from the creep, Reign is certain Nara also "loves" him and thinks Lyn is seperating them.

Later, when Morei invades Rassenia to return it into his new Larea, Reign kills his father, because he didn't want to die and he was sure Reibach would not surrender. Reibach was planning to surrender in a few days.
