|ONC PROMPT 78 "You begin to realize that nothing is quite what it seems."| In the hidden chambers of an ancient elven court, every decision is a matter of life, law, and secrecy. Alliances are forged in shadow, and even the smallest disruption can ripple into catastrophe. For the elves, maintaining order is more than duty-it is survival. Two council members, the steadfast High Justicar Cirmon Shadowbane and the perceptive clerk Belvedere, stand at the heart of this fragile balance. As threats emerge and secrets surface, they are forced to confront the limits of their authority, the weight of their choices, and the consequences of silence. In a world where magic, morality, and power collide, no law can predict every outcome, and no justice comes without cost. Cover designed by @raizelrose3

'Just one more question. Well, two questions. Did the Goddess ever get her voice back, and has anyone met her?' 'She did, but no one knows how. It's a mystery! The Goddess does not like showing herself to people, but she had to when it came to fixing the rum situation.' 'Maybe, I will get to meet her,' Jacques said proudly. The Captain chuckled, 'My boy, you might get to.' From that day forward, Jacques sailed the seven seas waiting for the time he would get the opportunity to meet the Goddess. As Jacques sailed on the ocean, he heard the same humming sound as the Captain once did before him. In a tale of adventure and forbidden love, Jacques, the captain of the ship Sparrow, has been sailing the seas ever since he heard a mysterious voice from the ocean. This voice belongs to Arieshell, a siren who has controlled the waves for millennia. When she encounters Jacques's ship, she falls in love with him. The story explores whether Jacques and Arieshell can find what they are searching for despite the challenges of their different worlds. ------ The cover credit goes to @lorenasanz15 The banner credit goes to @starisredy Character Aesthetics credits edible_autumn Character Banners credits go to @-DeeIsDead- Word count Goal: 85,000-115,000 Word Count: 177,928 ----- Highest Rankings 🥇 #1 in Sirens - 11/08/25 🥇 #1 in Sailors - 11/15/25
