Nightmare Land
Nightmare Land is a place unlike any other, where the rules of reality no longer apply. Portal, a character created by an author, has no memory of how he arrived in this strange realm, but he knows one thing: he was made to manage the author's books and handle the chaos they created. For years, he kept the books under control, but one day, when trying to portal back to where he belonged, his portals inexplicably took him to the Nightmare Realm—and refused to let him out.
Now, trapped in this twisted land with only fragments of his past, Portal must navigate its dangers, using his ability to summon friends and characters from other books to help him survive. Communication with the author is rare, but when they can speak, they guide him through the trials he must face.
In Nightmare Land, he meets new allies—the other Nightmare Lords. These former subjects of the Nightmare Master, each with their own deadly abilities, are also fighting for freedom through a series of brutal Trials. Portal must join forces with them, facing challenges that will test their will and strength. As he battles alongside them, he begins to regain his memories, unlocking the truth about his past, his purpose, and the dark forces that bind him to this world. To escape, he must uncover the secrets of the realm and survive the trials—or be trapped forever.

Chapter: Chapter 24 IllusionsWE FOLLOWED THE DRAWINGS and walked in complete silence after what had been said. As much as we hated to admit it, Aiden was right: people who didn't know their full story should condemn no one. At the end of the wall of pictures was Illusion, or well, Isaac sitting cross-legged in front of two pictures: mine and Leon’s. Underneath Leon’s picture were the words, ‘The Nightmare Master claims he didn't kill them, but why can't I find them? I want to give them a home again. I don't know if they'll accept it, but I want to at least offer it.’Underneath mine were the words, ‘Because of my relationship with you, he made me choose between you and everyone else. I'm sorry, I really loved you, Damien.’Instantly something inside me snapped, and I stormed up tomorrow as I practically growled. “You do not have any right to say that shit. Not only did you give me to the Nightmare Master, but what about Aiden?”I could feel both Leon and Glitch tense up behind me. Glitch because of how he feels a

Chapter: Chapter 23 Illusions“YOU’RE MUTE,” A VOICE whispered. “You told me the Nightmare Master would have fixed him, Glitch.”“So I was wrong, it's not like he didn't deserve it.”“How can you say that after what we just heard? The reason the Nightmare Master didn't fix him is because he refused to hunt down you and the others.”Deciding it was best if I left, I bolted, running away from them. Once again, though I didn't go searching for the exit, there was one place I wanted to visit before I left. Exactly in the middle of this place was a memorial for every kid I gave to the Nightmare Master and everyone I lost on the street. I'm going to visit that place one more time before I leave it for good. I slowed down after I couldn't hear those four anymore and walked the familiar path to that memorial.Some part of me had always hoped that I was one day find those kids again after the Nightmare Master discarded them. He had always claimed he wasn't killing them, but no matter how many times I looked, I could never

Chapter: Chapter 22 IllusionsI SCALED DOWN THE farthest side of the tower so they wouldn't see me. I had done it more than a couple of times, so it was easy to reach the ground. When I was on the ground, I carefully walked closer to them, keeping within the shadows. I really shouldn't be so curious, but nothing happens around here, so when something happens, it's hard not to be curious. Which is why, despite knowing I shouldn't, I got as close as I could to listen in on their conversation.“I don't know why the hell you wanted to come here, Aiden.” One of the four grumbled.I flinched, as I always did, when I heard that name. Aiden was the name of someone I cared about dearly who died on the streets protecting me. He was the main reason I accepted the Nightmare Masters deal. I wanted to make sure no one would feel what I had felt then, and if I had to sacrifice a couple of kids to protect a lot of them, it was okay. Completely forgetting that those kids also had someone who cared about them.The one they had call

Chapter: Chapter 21 IllusionsI STARED OVER THE wall, not really sure why I was even thinking of leaving. After finding me to be useless because I couldn't find him the one thing he wanted, the Nightmare Master sealed me in here. What does he want? Well, he wanted a kid to replace her. I'm not really sure who he meant by her, but he wanted a kid that had an imagination as big as whoever the person he was missing. None of the kids ever seem to be enough for him, so he shut down this place and sealed me inside it.This place used to be where I lured kids of all kinds with my illusions. I was the toy master they adored and loved until, of course, too many of them started going missing in this place. It wasn't just younger kids either, though that's what he wanted. I lured all type of kids. Besides the few that went missing, this place was for kids now lived on the streets or ran away from abusive parents.They thought I was protecting them, and I was trying to, but none of them knew I was also giving the younger ones

Chapter: Chapter 20 RingmasterUNFORTUNATELY. LUCK WASN’T ON my side because, of course, the door wasn't locked. How did I know that? Well, it was easy to tell when the doorknob started turning. Not bothering to stay quiet since they knew our location, I barked at the other two.“Barricade the door now.”The smaller male paused, probably not really sure what he should do in this situation. Thankfully, his husband listened to me and quickly grabbed one of the chairs, shoving it underneath the doorknob. It was enough to stop the door from opening for now, but I knew from experience it wouldn't hold for long. A new, eerie voice spoke up this time.“So rude, Ringmaster, are you really not going to let us in?”Four different voices spoke up after the first one, each of them asking me to let them in. When I didn't respond, they started ramming the door; or at least that's what it sounds like. Chants followed each thump of something or somebody ramming against the door.“RingMaster, ringmaster, let us in.”I could easily g

Chapter: Chapter 19 RingmasterI HAVEN'T CRIED IN years because, well, crying really wouldn't make a difference. I was stuck in this situation no matter what I did. Of course, that didn't stop the tears from falling; actually, it made even more tears fall. For a second there was only silence, and I thought those two had left, not that I had much time to think about them, since Frequency's voice filled the surrounding room.“So, not trying to be rude, Ring, but can you stop crying? I kind of need to run something that's by you.”At the sound of his voice, my tears dried up almost instantly. I'm not sure if it was because I was feeling embarrassed or maybe because having a friend around, even if he wasn't here in person, was comforting. I wiped the remaining tears from my face as I glanced around, expecting his face to show up on a TV or something like that. Frequency has the ability to use frequencies to control technology. To lessen his impact, the Nightmare Master put him to sleep, forcing him to use his frequenci

1001 Dark Tales
I found an old quill in an antique shop and decided to buy it since I have always wanted to write with quills. However, as soon as I touched the quill to the paper, I was transported into the book. I wasn't the only one there, though three males who always hide their identities behind masks were in the book with me. They claim the quill belongs to them, and I must return it. Since I refuse, they follow me into every book I go into. One day, I was debating which of my mature books to write when I accidentally spilled the ink onto my book, 1001 Dark Tales. The only way they'll help me out of the book is if I give the quill back, and there is now a fourth. As I go through more of the book with them, I start noticing things. Things I had never planned for in my book, and it concerned me because even though I hadn't written those parts yet, none of the other stories I had used the quill on had ever gone that off track. However, when we tried to leave the book, it wouldn't let us back out. It seems we're stuck in the book until we finish all 1001 Dark Tales.

Chapter: Authors NoteHey, my Royalties, I have some updates to tell you. So I know I haven't been writing this book, and that's because I was stumped. Thankfully, I figured out what I wanted to do with this book. It's going to change a bit, but not a lot. You see, I decided that instead of the entire story, they'll be placed in a part of the story and have to complete a task to get to a new story. I'll try my best to get these chapters out as soon as I can. I am thinking of deleting the original chapter and then just posting new ones. Because I recently got a new editor and I told them I was doing new edits, but it's been 2 or 3 days, and there's been no response. From what I figured out, if it's the first time I'm posting the chapter, it doesn't require their approval. If that doesn't work, I really don't know what I'm going to do besides contact Goodnovel, of course. Now let's talk about my other books. Nightmare Land is not changing, but I am re-editing the first 18 chapters, which I will try to finis

Chapter: Chapter 14He didn't wait for me to argue and instead forced me onto my knees in front of the prince. Who stared down at me with wide eyes. Like he couldn't believe I was in front of him. I reached forward, but before I could even touch him, he jerked away. "Wait... I want to pierce her first."Though he tried to say it with confidence. It was more than obvious he was panicking. I would have tried to help him, but I was more worried about myself. My thigh still throbbed from the brand, and now they wanted to pierce my tongue, nipples, and clit. Still, Raven would do anything for Fox. "Get on the bed." The commander barked, yanking me to my feet. After a moment's hesitation, I turned to the bed. Before I could take a step, though, a hand wrapped around my ankle. Glancing down, I met Fox's eyes as he shook his head at me, telling me not to do it. The commander yanked me away from Fox and practically threw me onto the bed. "Good, you woke up just in time for the fun."I landed in the middle of

Chapter: Chapter 13The treasure room was actually the prince and my character's idea. In the plot, she was going by; they had set this trap for her. Just in case Lady Bluebird wasn't able to lead her away. The actual treasure is hidden in the prince's chambers. Somewhere none of them would ever go. It didn't take me that long to reach the room. Someone locked the door from the inside. Which none of the guards would have done. Luckily, my character was quite strong, so all I had to do was plant my foot in the middle of the door, and it flew open. The two of her men left in the room instantly turned and faced me. They each had on a black cloak and mask, as Raven had on when I had first caught her. These two wore a fox and a tiger mask, unlike Raven's raven-shaped mask. If I remember correctly, the fox mask was Fox, one of Raven's love interests. Which should be one of the twins characters. The one with the fox mask shoved the other one through the window before standing in front of it. His body was ten

Chapter: Chapter 12After a second, I realized I should probably go with him. I mean, he wasn't able to figure out that something was wrong without my help. If he gets caught, then we're all dead. I slipped out after him. I figured none of them would leave without permission. At least I hope they wouldn't be stupid enough. They would be signing their own death warrant then. It didn't take me that long to catch up with Lord Tiger. When he saw me, he just grinned at me. He was probably thinking that I had come with him to protect him and the others. This is usually where I would open my mouth and ruin the plot. I'm figuring out why everyone is grateful that I can't speak. It doesn't mean I like it, though. We searched the entire train, but as I expected, guards were at every exit. That didn't discourage me, though. There is no way she wouldn't have an exit for her precious characters. Knowing her, though, it would be somewhere we least expect it. Or somewhere that's almost impossible to get to. I racked

Chapter: Chapter 11I easily slipped through the train with Fox's muscle memory. However, as I walked around more, I realized it was abandoned. I had thought it was weird that no one was guarding the prince's chamber. You would expect not only the treasure to be protected but the prince himself. Something is going on. I stepped out of the shadows, no longer caring if anyone saw me. I mean, there would have to be someone who would actually have to be here for them to see me. I bolted in the direction I had seen one of them go off in. Trying to recall the plans my brother had me go over. Usually, he was the only one who bothered remembering all that shit. However, knowing this character, he would have it buried deep in his memory somewhere. He hated being useless because of his muteness. Therefore, he performed every task perfectly. After a moment of searching, the plans filled my mind. I didn't even pause in my stride. I just changed directions, running toward the man positioned closest to where the tr

Chapter: Chapter 10I stumbled through the fire. Covering my face with my cloak as I looked for the clearing that Lady Bluebird had mentioned. She had been telling the truth about the fire. Which means she must be telling the truth about where she had left Raven. However, no matter where I looked.All I could see was the fire surrounding me. Realizing I would get nowhere stumbling through this fire. I turned back to go the way I had come. However, flames must have consumed the path I had taken because I could no longer find it. My gaze instantly went to the trees because they were the only way I could find my way back.Most were too consumed by fire for me to scale them. However, some of them had places where I could maneuver around the fire. I doubt I will be able to go around everything. Still, I really only had three options. I tied my cloak securely around my face and ran to one of the trees I could still scale. Heat radiated from it. The flames were probably about to consume it completely. Still, I
