This (short)story is Completed! Even if you're not a fan of short stories I think its definitely worth giving it a shot. Chapter 1 is here, the rest of the novella is (free on amazon until sometime on Saturday 4/29) Or available anytime on amazon (Kindle Unlimited too) Birth Status: Corporation-Dron.... ahem, "Corporation-Asset". That's crap though. Free isn't like the rest of the drones... well, except for her friend Three, he's alright for the "Mr. Corpo Poster-Boy" that he is. But she isn't like any of them. She was FreeBorn, and one day soon, she'll sail further than any Asset has ever seen, break her way into the High-Priority Personnel DataStack at the very heart of the CodeSea, and prove it. The setting is cyberpunk-fantasy and it's for January's community contest with the prompt 'uncharted waters'.

Introduction This universe consists of Gods, Superheroes, Villains, and many more advanced civilizations. This universe was created by Omkar who is the god of gods. He created many universes and then they created Lord Brahma The Lord of creation, Lord Vishnu the Lord of preservation and Lord Shiva the destroyer, they were also called together Trimurti by other gods. They made other gods and gave them their unique powers. They decided to make a leader of the gods and they chose God Indra to lead other gods. Trimurti also created rakshas, asura and many more powerful monster like creatures but, that was their mistake to create them as they attacked on the gods to get more powers and the motive was to conquer the world but Trimurti helped Gods and locked monsters in several pockets of patal lok every pocket could be unlocked with several special keys made by God Vishvakarma, and gods started living in swarglok which was so peaceful place. Later all gods decide to make 5 elemental rings(these rings also can choose their owner by there own) full of cosmic energy (there are two types of energy that are Cosmo and Cosmic, Cosmo energy can be achieved by anyone but Cosmic energy can't be possessed by anyone who is not a god except one in the history) with the help of God Vishvakarma. They made some elemental stones with the help of rings which can be attached from the rings(unlike rings, stones can't choose their owners by themselves). All the rings were preserved in 5 different chambers no one knows where those chambers were. Thousands of years later one person got all of the rings and unlocked some of creatures from patal and started killing everyone in the universe but some gods managed to kill that person and decides to not interfere in the universe directly instead operate all of the universe from swarglok and again put all the rings in the chamber and later that chambers got broke and all rings lost in darkness of the space some says that the chambers broke eventually and some says it was broken by someone Later on&..
