*Trigger Warning* This book depicts suicide and mental illness. Some souls are born to break the cycle. Others were never meant to live at all. Seventeen-year-old Ellie Lucas never asked to inherit a legacy of death. But after her mother's mysterious suicide and a cryptic note left behind, Ellie's world spirals into something far darker than grief. Haunted by visions, pulled into weekly therapy sessions that she dreads, and shadowed by a boy from her past with secrets of his own, Ellie learns the truth, she carries divine blood and is fated to die... unless she becomes something worse. Killian, the son of the God of Death, Ankou, was meant to claim her soul. Instead, he watches over her, bound by a curse of his own. As ancient Celtic powers awaken and soul-devouring creatures threaten the balance between Gods and humans, Ellie finds herself caught between destiny and defiance, love and vengeance, the living and the dead. But when the ultimate betrayal reveals someone who once was closest to her true motives, Ellie's fate is no longer hers to mourn-it's hers to rewrite. If your soul was the price for power, would you still fight to be free? Dive into a supernatural thrill ride where mythology meets mortality-and every choice echoes in eternity.

In an oceanic realm littered with traces of Magick, Crescent Isle had always been the odd one out. For aeons on end, it had been sheltered from the remainder of the world, seemingly as though an enormous invisible dome had been set in place around its waters to ward off dangers, paving the way for a prosperous golden age. However, darkness finally rises to the forefront across the Thirteenth Sea. Pirates, eyes glued onto the island's vast wealth and riches, invade the capital city, Silvermoon Wharf. Crescent Isle's defences hold through arduous tribulations but at a significant cost; with a timeless relic tarnished, a great evil is one step closer to emerging. In the calamity's wake, Cynthia Pryce meets a mysterious albeit familiar old man with but a single request for her to join his longspun journey across the sea to restore the distorted balance between light and darkness. Intrigued by the offer, the girl breaks free of her roots. Suddenly exposed to the vast entirety of the Thirteenth Sea, Cynthia steers down a rocky path of a new reality as she comes to terms with the horrifying state of global unrest. ------------------------------------------ Arc I - Origins - Chapters 1 - 20, Finished Transition I - Chapters 21 - 29, Finished Arc 2 - Dawn of Magick - Ongoing Notice: Temporary AI cover - official cover still pending.
