Darkpastbrightfuture Stories

Wes, a sixteen-year-old mage, carries a powerful but misunderstood magic that her family rejected, casting her out of their home. Despite her tragic and abusive past, she hides her pain behind constant smiles and quiet kindness, never allowing her trauma to surface. In a world where magical strength is valued as a weapon, Wes refuses to use hers for harm, which only deepened her family's scorn. Seeking refuge and a chance at rebirth, Wes enrolls at the Holy Academy of Asterfell, a grand institution devoted to channeling magic through divine reverence rather than destruction. There, she hopes to bury her past, reinvent herself, and perhaps find a sense of belonging. Yet, while Wes believes she can conceal her sorrow and isolation, her shadows linger. Within the Academy, she will meet new friends and, eventually, Tammy-a person who begins to break through Wes's guarded heart. Slowly, what begins as a lonely journey toward survival will transform into one of healing, self-discovery, and love.

Ashes to Light is a heart-stirring tale of friendship, love, and the fire it takes to survive. It all began in high school-four friends who had nothing but each other. Lyra, Riaan, Ayan, and Meher weren't just classmates-they were a lifeline. Through heartbreaks, scraped knees, late-night rooftop talks, and fierce loyalty, their bond felt unbreakable. But growing up means facing shadows you never saw coming. When a mysterious and dangerous boy named Zee enters their world, everything changes. What starts as quiet threats escalates into a deadly game, one that shatters innocence and tests love in its rawest form. As Lyra is dragged into the storm, the others fight to bring her back-even if it means risking everything. Years later, battle-worn and grown, they meet again. What was once fractured begins to heal. And from the ashes of their past, something unshakable rises. A story of survival. Of second chances. Of the kind of love-and friendship-that chooses to stay.
