Before the Flood episodes

  • BONUS: Teraphim (Abridged) Chapter 8

    In a near-future world on the brink of mastering quantum teleportation, brilliant physicist Julian Voss achieves the impossible: instantaneous matter transfer that will end distance forever. But as his breakthrough nears, strange glitches escalate into terrifying warnings—flickering apparitions, exploding lights, and horrifying changes in living subjects that defy science.

    Haunted by a sorrowful presence that seems determined to stop him, Julian must confront whether his invention is humanity’s salvation… or the opening of a door that should never be unlocked. A chilling blend of hard sci-fi, Christian dark fantasy, and biblical horror, Teraphim explores the terrifying cost of playing God and the ancient line between genius and damnation.

  • Before the Flood: The Fall of Atlantis, Epilogue: Dawn on the Distant Shore

    In the aftermath of Atlantis’s destruction, Leon and Serah reach a distant shore at dawn, scarred but alive.

    As the last blue flames fade, a prophetic vision reveals a new threat rising in the east—the Crimson Cities and the devouring power of Molech. One obedient heart was enough to sink an empire.

    Now the remnant must prepare for what comes next.

    A powerful close to Before the Flood: The Fall of Atlantis, this epilogue delivers judgment, quiet hope, and the first glimpse of the story still to come.

  • Before the Flood: The Fall of Atlantis, Chapter 17: High King and Cataclysm

    In the flooded heart of Atlantis’s Golden Palace, the arena has become a crucible of judgment. Leon of Tanaju, bearer of the blue flame and the olive token of the Creator, stands against the rising tide of corruption and the favored son of the depths, Prince Thalorion. Water clashes with fire as the Watchers whisper of godhood and the Egyptian Nephilim look on with growing unease. As Poseidon the Earth-Shaker himself descends and the island begins to tremble, one obedient man must endure the final gauntlet. Will flesh fail… or will the word of the Creator endure?Before the Flood: The Fall of Atlantis – Chapter 17: High King and Cataclysm

  • Before the Flood: The Fall of Atlantis, Chapter 16: The Breaking of Thrones

    In the heart of a crumbling Atlantis, the Golden Palace has become a flooded arena of judgment. Leon of Tanaju, bearer of the blue flame, stands alone against the rising tide—his body scarred by growing sapphire corruption, his soul anchored only by an olive-branch token and the Creator’s vision.He clashes with Prince Thalorion, the crustacean-armored favorite of the depths, in a cataclysmic duel of fire against water. Columns shatter, waves boil, and both warriors pay a terrible price as their powers twist them toward monstrosity. The Egyptian Nephilim watch from above with mocking laughter that slowly turns to unease.Then the true lord of the island arrives. Poseidon the Earth-Shaker, sixteen feet of living storm and crystal power, descends the processional stairs and declares the final gauntlet has begun.Hours of relentless combat follow—undead thralls, illusions, elite guards—while Kyon’s voice tempts Leon toward godhood. Yet one obedient man endures. As night falls and the foundations of Atlantis begin to tremble, Leon kneels amid the wreckage and prays:The fall begins in earnest.

    All flesh is grass.

    The word of the Creator endures forever. A chapter of elemental fury, spiritual warfare, and the quiet strength that can topple an empire.
