Hello everyone, here are the co-author and the author. We ran into a problem: the story arc will end after three characters. We had a couple of ideas for the next arc, but... we had too many ideas, we couldn't decide which to choose so we let you vote for them.
1-[CYBORG ROYAL ARC – War of Steel and Soul]
The void grew quiet. Too quiet.
Grey, lounging on a throne of twitching coral and wired skulls, suddenly sat up—her boredom had reached cosmic levels.
[Grey]: You know what'd be fun? Ripping each other apart in custom murder machines.
Of course, the others agreed. Who wouldn't want to become a murderbot in an apocalyptic wasteland?
So they did.
They transferred their souls into towering warframes, stitched with ancient code, hollow dread, and chrome vengeance. They chose names—terrible ones.
Grey became D.A.N.T.E, a meach made for her.
They launched themselves into a shattered post-apocalyptic world, landing in different zones across the radioactive wasteland—each one with different terrain, hazards, and factions.
The rules were simple:
Find the others. Kill them. Win.
No mercy. Only metal.
But soon they discover… they're not the only ones playing this game.
2-[GAMEWORLD ARC – Code of Fate]
To unwind, the group dived into a magical MMORPG world, inserting their souls into hyper-real avatars.
Grey became a Level 1 Cook with World-Ending Recipes.
Ammar joined his master role as a Luck-Only Assassin who crits by tripping.
They start off trying to relax, but quickly realize the game's world is alive. NPCs whisper about the "Fleshless Ones" who fell from beyond the stars. Bosses evolve. Quest items beg to be destroyed.
Soon, the devs are missing. The game's code is rewriting itself. And the group is being hunted by "Patch 0.0"—a sentient debug protocol that wants them deleted for being anomalies.
To escape?
Beat the Final Boss.
Which is… Grey.
Because at some point, she got bored and became the god of the game.
3-[THE BIOCORE HEIST – Steal the Heart of a World]
The group receives a distress call from a dying biosphere—a living planet called Elandros. It's half jungle, half mechanical hive, and the planet itself is being dissected by a faction called The Cleaners.
Their mission?
Infiltrate the Cleaners' floating city, steal the Biocore Heart of Elandros, and escape before the world collapses.
Unfortunately…
Grey accidentally fused her consciousness with a jungle god and can't stop talking in vines and bees.
5-[Meet Yourself. Kill Them.]
The multiverse hiccups, and suddenly the group is thrown into a collision event with alternate versions of themselves.
A noble, heroic Grey who leads a Familia of peace, and other versions of the group, showed up.
Too bad the multiverse only has room for one version of each.
Grey must battle herself, not in strength, but in ideology.
To win, she must break the timeline or accept a truce.
Neither option is clean.
6-[Carnival of Realms – The Masked Hunt]
A mysterious invitation appears in Grey's pillow, soaked in perfume and madness:
"Come to the Carnival. Win the Prize. Lose yourself."
They accept. Of course.
Who could resist a realm-hopping masquerade hosted by cosmic jesters and eldritch showmen?
Every realm is a stage.
Every contestant wears a mask.
Only one wins the wish at the end.
Problem is… the longer you wear the mask, the less you remember who you were.
Please choose something.
