    Luke Sorenson, better known by his nickname Glass, learns his best friend, Clarke Griffin, is being sent to a supposedly uninhabitable Earth as part of a desperate experiment. This leads him to make an impossible choice to protect her. He deliberately becomes one of the 100 juvenile delinquents alongside their mutual friend, Wells Jaha. Witness his fight for survival on a brutal planet, facing unknown dangers and the lingering scars of a past he couldn't control. While this fanfiction focuses mainly on my original characters, I'll also be changing certain scenes that don't directly involve my OCs. I'm making these changes because they are things I would have liked to have seen in the original series. Essentially, think of this as a partial rewrite. Also, this fanfiction will be written with the assumption that you have watched the original series. With that said, happy reading. ***This is a fanfiction for The 100. I do not own the series or its characters; all rights belong to the creators. My original characters and their storylines are my own.***

    Beneath the earth, the sun is only a memory - and its light is no longer free. The powerful have bottled it, priced it, and called it holy. Every flicker, every breath, must be paid for in Lumen. Lucy Farrow was born in the Gloom, where the air tastes of rust and hope is a dangerous thing. Her mother taught her to keep her glow low - to survive unseen. But when the light inside her begins to stir, Lucy's secret could unravel the order that keeps their divided city alive. High above, in the marble halls of the Halo, Prince Cassian Soleyne uncovers a secret among ink and dust - a forbidden lineage that could unmake the order he was born to protect. His duty is to snuff it out: his heart tells him to save it. Between them rises the Veil: a wall of soot-black stone and blinding searchlights, dividing the blessed from the broken. As rebellion brews in the dark and doubt kindles in the light, their paths will cross - and together they will awaken a fire long thought dead. A Radiant who could bring back the dawn... or burn the world to ash. ⸻ ✧ ⸻ Lucy approached the marble stairs of the Distribution Point, feeling smaller with every step. Even after so many visits, its splendour still swallowed her whole. Inside, chandeliers of bottled light bathed clerks and soldiers in scarlet. Behind the wooden barrier, white-gloved hands counted Credits and passed bottles of gold to the waiting poor. A cry tore through the hush. "No, I swear, these Credits are real -" The clerk's reply was colder than stone. "One is counterfeit. Guards!" Boots thundered. The woman screamed as Veil Guards dragged her away, her voice fading into the city's endless hum. The line moved. "Next." Lucy stepped forward, clutching her satchel. The Credits inside jingled - Mother had checked them twice, but still her hands trembled. ⸻ ✧ ⸻

    In a world where the very earth has turned against humanity, one man wanders through cities swallowed by creeping, semi-sentient growth. Shadows whisper, landscapes shift, and the line between memory and madness begins to blur. Elias Kael seeks answers, driven by guilt and obsession, yet every step into the ruins reveals a world far more alive-and far more dangerous-than he ever imagined. Survival is fragile, morality is a memory, and the environment is watching. In the heart of this transformed world, the question is no longer how to live... but how to endure the truth that might finally find you first.

    They said the war ended the day the Monarch's banners burned. They lied. Renwyn Cassidy wakes up in a smoking crater with no memory and no name. The Frygmeund Division-the rebellion that was supposed to have won-lies in ruins. The sky is red, the cities are graves, and the only a handful of exhausted soldiers are left to pick through the wreckage. They say the Monarch's army is broken. They say the battle is over. They never mention that the war was only the beginning. A post-apocalyptic fantasy where winning the battle was the easy part. Written by a new author, so expect illogical plot holes and improper grammar. Fully in English. Updates on a whim, so some chapters may release early while others take weeks.

    Rory and Daryl's relationship is built on tension and grudging respect. From the start, they clash-Rory's idealism as a doctor, her need to help and heal, constantly rubs against Daryl's hardened, survivalist attitude. He doesn't trust easily, especially not someone like her, who still believes in making the world a better place despite everything falling apart. "I don't need your help, Doc," Daryl growls after a particularly tense moment where Rory tries to tend to his wounds. But beneath their antagonism, there's something deeper. Despite his gruff exterior, Daryl can't deny that Rory has a stubborn, unwavering strength. She's the only one who still tries to save lives, and though he resists, he respects her for it. "You're gonna get yourself killed trying to fix everyone," Daryl says, his tone rough but tinged with concern, even if he won't admit it. "I'm not trying to fix everyone.Just... one person at a time," Rory replies, and for a brief moment, Daryl doesn't know how to respond. Their interactions are filled with a mix of sharp words and quiet moments of understanding. Rory doesn't know whether to admire Daryl's ability to survive or to wish he would open up. And Daryl? He can't decide if he's annoyed by her optimism or secretly grateful for it. Though they argue constantly, there's no denying the bond forming between them-built on mutual survival and an unspoken need for each other in a world that has stripped them of everything else. "Maybe one day you'll stop pushing me away," Rory says quietly, after another fight. Daryl just stares into the fire, silent for a long time before muttering, "Not today." And so, they continue-two people who hate and need each other in equal measure, caught somewhere between survival and something more.

    Before kings and empires, before mankind walked beneath the stars, there was a song-divine, broken, and eternal. From the first breath of Consciousness to the fall of gods and the rise of mortals, The Divine Requiem Saga weaves a mythic chronicle of a world forever caught in a cycle of creation and collapse. Across eons, civilizations rise from sacred flame and fall to ash. Ancient powers stir in forgotten realms. And as the Age of Conquest dawns, the echoes of a primordial war whisper once more. This is not a tale of heroes. This is the memory of a world-sung through time, bound by fate, and written in requiem.
