"With every heartbeat, my love for you grows stronger and stronger."

Rin and Ali are two criminology students running the Timebooth Detective Agency. While it may appear normal on the surface, it's not your typical agency. 𝑻𝒉𝒆𝒚 𝒄𝒂𝒏 𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒆-𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒍. Recently, a client assigned them a case, only to become unresponsive to calls when asked to pay up. Later, they find her dead. Reports say suicide, but things... aren't adding up. As the duo investigate further, they realise they're dealing with something, much, MUCH more sinister. Because they're not the only ones with these powers. The killer has it too. And now they're on his radar. They have to catch him fast before the people around them end up dead, just like their client. Time is running out... "𝑻𝒆𝒍𝒍 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒎 𝑰 𝒂𝒄𝒄𝒆𝒑𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒊𝒓 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒈𝒆"

Death chose Seraphine Valen long before she chose herself. Eighteen years old and soaked in the blood of everyone she ever loved, she rises from the carnage with something no mortal should possess: the power to command death itself. A single touch snuffs out life. A single thought bends destruction to her will. The darkness inside her is awake... and hungry. Her awakening draws the Banes, creatures of nightmare and hunger, eager to possess the weapon she has become. Fleeing a world unraveling into ruin, Seraphine is taken into Death's Castle-an ancient labyrinth where the walls remember every soul that's ever screamed. There she meets an unlikely trinity of allies: a diviner who sees the threads of fate fraying, a war vampire addicted to blood and battle, and a brute whose strength is matched only by his fierce loyalty. But as her ancestry unfolds-a legacy woven from dark and light-a deeper horror stirs in the void, older than gods, older than death. And it has been waiting for her.

Centuries ago, humanity's greed shattered the balance of the world. Betrayed and slaughtered, the elves vanished into legend, their sacred tree, Elaureth, cursing the royal bloodline and dooming mankind to fear and mistrust. Magic faded, and with it, the world's last remnants of peace. Now, in the quiet village of Mosswick, young Eleanor stumbles upon a mysterious blue gem buried deep within a cave. Its beauty is mesmerizing, but its discovery comes at a devastating cost-an eerie curse befalls her village, trapping its people in a nightmarish fate. The only ones untouched are Eleanor, her mother figure, Marianne, also known as Granny Pie, and three enigmatic travelers drawn to the gem for reasons of their own. Forced to leave everything behind, Eleanor embarks on a journey with four unlikely companions: two secretive elves, a rebellious noble, and a cursed prince whose past is shrouded in tragedy. Together, they must uncover the truth behind the curse, face the forces that destroyed magic, and challenge the very fate of the kingdom. But some truths were meant to stay buried. Some curses are not so easily broken. And Eleanor's journey is only the beginning.

Alright young man?' He said to the kid without looking down at him. 'Everything would be if you hadn't told him in the first place!' The boy shouted at his face. It was all too much for Mr Rostwood. He looked hard at the boy and without thinking, he landed a heavy slap at his cheek. The boy was shocked and fell down from the severe momentum. 'Where do you live?' Mr Rostwood asked like nothing happened. 'I...I live in the orphanage there, sir.' He answered and lifted a small and trembling finger to show him the direction he had come from.
