I invite everyone to read my dark fantasy novella "The Guardsman and the Witch". This story will tell you about adventures of two opposite people - a noble guardsman whose life changed in one moment after he got cursed with dark magic and a cruel witch searching for power whom fate bonded together in search of artifacts of the past. Together they head north which is full of different and dangerous creatures and places, where they get to know the story of the world and face the witch's folk who have special abilities called the colorless magic and were hunted and killed for centuries by the present king and his predecessors that made them angry on everyone except themselves and turned them into monsters. Raime of his kindness wants to change it while Lizzy cares not about anything except herself. If you like fantasy, dark fantasy or fantasy-horror, I think this book will be a good addition to your library.
