This is the tale of a small-town sheriff. His primary concerns are making sure the town's cast of quirky characters stay out of trouble and trying to impress his girlfriend, a local rancher. But one day, out of the blue, a big-city man claiming to be an astronaut shows up and quickly impresses the small-town bumpkins. The sheriff doesn't buy it, and what starts as a relatively light-hearted rivalry between them quickly grows dark when the sheriff attempts to murder the astronaut by shoving him off a high ledge. The sheriff, narrowly escaping a lynching, flees the town and comes across the battered, but still alive, astronaut. The two fight and argue before being captured by a sadist with a passion for torture. While in his lair, the big-city man discovers that he never actually was an astronaut, and the sheriff realizes that he let his jealousy get the best of him. By rallying the sadist's previous victims, the two manage to defeat him and become fire-forged friends. The two barely avoid getting blown to smithereens and return home in time for Christmas.

A man is taken by an incomprehensible eldritch entity of a higher dimensional and shown their plane as part of a millennial ritual. Offending his host, he is cast back to his world only to be shown visions of a lower dimension's god. Trying to proselytize his fellow people with his blasphemous knowledge, he is imprisoned and wastes away, futilely preaching to visitors. Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions

A total square wakes up in an unfamiliar world, inhabited by various animals but no other people. Forced to survive with nothing but his bare hands, he proceeds to build himself a shelter to hide from the vicious creatures which come out at night. At first content to simply live day to day, he eventually takes it upon himself to uncover the mysteries of the world. His quest takes him to the depths of the earth and to the hearts of massive abandoned structures. Eventually he finds himself in the darkest void, where after a terrible trial two unknown beings grant him peace.

Because trying to stuff Fate/Whatever's engrish and the title of a 17th century book on statecraft into Pokemon syntax tends to make the content incomprehensible.

In a Theocratic Monarchy lives a young intellectual woman with her adopted son. Due to her focus on intellectual pursuits, like the studying of the all sorts of subjects from mathematics and science to ancient lore, she finds little time to socialize with other people. One day, upon royal orders, she is sent into the outskirts of the kingdom in order to supervise an annual ritual. While she initially dismisses the countryside, she gradually grows to enjoy it, and the eccentric rural villagers are all to happy to befriend her. However, right before the ritual can commence, an exiled royal family member manages to sneak back into the kingdom, and launches a sudden coup d'etat. The protagonist, fiercely loyal to the original royalty, raises a force of the most skilled and capable peasants as a loyalist militia to take back the throne.
They face many harsh trials along the way, where her impromptu villager force is able to utilize their various abilities and attributes to fend off the arsenal of the self-proclaimed new ruler. After clearing out the enemy forces and provisions, Protagonist and co. confront the false ruler head-on in one climatic battle, where they are able to overpower the latter in one final blitzkrieg attack. The old monarch is restored, and actually manages to forgive their kin; in fact, instead of punishment, the usurper is welcomed back into the royal family.

Upon the completion of her duties, the protagonist decides to live out her life in the countryside instead of returning to the heart of the kingdom, as she grows fond of the new life she finds. She moves into a village, where she and her son manage to balance intellectual pursuits with community participation. She keeps in touch with the throne though, periodically writing the monarch letters on her sociological discoveries. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic

An sentient ancient mask managed to escapes from his mountain prison through the aid of a balding scientist. The two then recruit the assistance of an ingenious scientist who wields a giant tuning fork in order to create a functional time machine. Using this machine, the three plan to obtain mystical jewelry of great power. There efforts are foiled by a sentient marsupial that the scientist created years earlier.
