"The Last Bark of Orion" Bolt isn't your average Siberian Husky. Cruising the cosmos aboard the freighter Wanderlust with his pragmatic human captain, Eva Rostova, he’s a wisecracking, genetically-enhanced canine with the ability to talk and senses that reach beyond human understanding. His life, already extraordinary, catapults into the heart of an ancient galactic war when a mysterious signal from the Orion constellation awakens dormant ancestral memories within him—terrifying echoes of an eons-old conflict between star-faring Canid and Felid empires, both engineered by a vanished, god-like race known as the Progenitors. Plunged into a universe of intrigue and escalating danger, Bolt and Eva discover the truth behind the legends. The "Heart of Orion," a colossal and fractured Progenitor power source, pulses with unimaginable energy—a force that ruthless factions from both Canid and Felid empires now desperately seek to control, believing it the ultimate weapon. They see Bolt, with his unique Progenitor-linked "seed of hope" granting him profound empathy and a unique connection to the Heart, as the unwilling key to taming and wielding its devastating might. Hunted across the stars by formidable warlords who misunderstand the cryptic prophecy of "The Last Bark of Orion" as a command for conquest, Bolt is caught between warring ideologies. As he grapples with the terrifying allure of the power the Heart offers and the immense pressure to choose a side, his "First Echoes"—shared, agonizing memories from both sides of the conflict—pull him towards a different path. He begins to suspect that the "Last Bark" isn't a call to arms, but a complex, misunderstood Progenitor failsafe designed not to empower a victor, but to heal the fractured Heart and perhaps the galaxy itself. With Eva as his anchor, Bolt must navigate treacherous alliances and deadly confrontations, racing against time to understand the true nature of the Last Bark before the Heart of Orion is unleashed as a doomsday weapon. His choice will determine not only his own fate but whether the galaxy succumbs to an even greater cataclysm or takes its first fragile step towards a new dawn, founded on understanding rather than endless war.

In the depths where neither the light nor the gods reach, the world keeps its last secret: a heartbeat. It is not that of a beast. It is not that of a god. It is something older, hungrier. A pulse that has waited centuries between the cracks, weaving dreams with the bones of the fallen and breeding nightmares in stone wombs. Those above call it the Abyss. They are wrong. It is the forgotten echo of all we have buried. Those who descend with swords think they carry fire, but they carry only their chains. They hunt beasts, but find only echoes of their own sins. For in the Abyss, monsters weave cradles from the bones of the fallen, wondering what accursed god created those beings they call “human.” Now the cracks sing. The walls weep. And what we called “nature” raises its black hand to erase the names of its gods. Because the abyss neither forgives nor forgets. And when the last light goes out, who will be more afraid: the one who looks into the darkness... or the darkness that looks at him?. https://www.royalroad.com/profile/741265/fictions

[2022 Best Newcomer Award Nomination] [No. 1 Bestseller in the 10th Sci-Fi Starlight Awards] [First Prize in the 2022 Sci-Fi Writing Contest] Saviors are ranked in different classes. An unranked savior is inefficient, taking years or even decades to save the world, leaving countless people to suffer in the meantime, and in the end, they might not even succeed. A third-rate savior is manipulated by conspirators throughout their life, ignorant and controlled like a puppet in someone else’s hands. A second-rate savior sacrifices greatly to save the world, enduring the death of a spouse, disability, the loss of close friends, and other hardships, only to gain an empty reputation or a gravestone epitaph. “Those saviors all have it too hard. I don’t want to be like them. I want to be a first-class savior!” “You ask me, what is a first-class savior?” “Saving the world at light speed!” “No casualties!” “Profiting wildly!” “Using the sword of the present to slay the future before it arrives, snuffing out the apocalypse in its cradle, acting entirely on my own will, and reaping the rewards I deserve!” “That’s what it means to be a first-class savior!” Stellar voyages, space-time travel, mechanical technology—the goal is the vast and unknown sea of stars!
