Alric's life is a bit of a struggle. The prince is not exactly physically inclined, but he does try to spend less time being pounded into the dirt. It doesn't help that his teachers are mortals known for their strength, agility, and battle prowess, while elves are known for... not much. The crown prince will need a lot of work before he can strike fear in the hearts of mortals and fae. Unfortunately for Alric, his father is not impressed. King Arkin wants a son built like a mortal-strong, powerful, a true warrior. Alric's mother will hear none of it; she knows her son is destined to rule. The elven people were kissed by the gods, igniting an eternal flame-a fire that can overpower any mortal and even combat the fae's magic. Alric was marked at birth as a wielder of the flame. To fully unleash his true power and ascend to the throne of Thaloria, Alric must first survive the final test: death. (The rest of the available chapters can be found on Tapas Media)

Aden Perri has problems. The last day of school his girlfriend calls it quits. And proceeds to move on a little too quickly. His friends disappear, leaving him to spend the summer alone. His mother buys a dog. Aden hates dogs. The scar on his leg confirms it. And his new job titles are garbage collector and toilet scrubber. At least he'll be out in nature, excepted he hates the outdoors. Aden's ready to barricade himself in his room, until school starts back up in the fall. His mother won't allow it, and his father is ready to do some character building. They drag him out and drive him to Beaver Lake. His father loads him with a bucket and a mop and sends him off to clean campground toilets. The local campers just laugh as the poor garbage boy wandered around picking up after them. All but one. One very strange, shirtless, barefoot boy who Aden will never understand. But the boy makes it bearable, so he'll let him stick around. It's not like Titus is really going to give Aden a choice anyways. *** I've been wanting to make the Demon Series into a graphic novel for years, and being on Tapas has made me really start to consider doing it. I had some of it posted before but I'm reworking the style-simplifying it!
