Monastery Stories

He was found in the snow sixteen winters ago. No one knew his true name - not even him. Timóteo grew up among prayers and doubts in the cold halls of a monastery, copying scriptures he never dared question aloud. But one evening, on the road to the village, he encounters something no prayer could have prepared him for: a veil tearing open between the world of men and whatever lives on the other side of it. Saved by a stranger with a curved sword and eyes that have seen too far, Timóteo discovers his name was never Timóteo at all. And once the veil opens, it never truly closes again. Now he must choose: return to the only life he has ever known - or accept the name that was always his, and the weight that comes with it. A story of faith, shadow, and the thin line between two worlds.

A young man with a past of hedonism finds himself imprisoned by a monastic life.

Lord, deliver me from the monster in my own flesh. Viktor - a brutal, immortal soldier with sharp claws and short temper, a beast who kills without hesitation, yet harbors a twisted loyalty. He lives for the hunt, the blood, and the chaos of war, embracing the monster inside him while despising those who deny theirs. Kaz - a young woman hiding in a Polish monastery, her body frail but her mind fierce, a devout believer whose prayers mask a dangerous secret. Behind her innocent eyes lies a power that could challenge even the deadliest of men. In a world torn apart by war, faith, and blood, when monster meets mortal, who will survive - and who will change the other forever?

Violetta didn't think there'd be people on top of that mountain she climbed. She was sorely mistaken. Thrown into the world of several recluses and their equally reclusive goddess, the eleven year old ends up having to adapt to their ways and gets sucked into an unexpected friendship that will change her in ways she never imagined. But it gets even stranger when their patron deity, Lady Diadem, turns out to be hiding an unforgivable secret. Now Violetta and her newfound companions are divided against each other and sent spiraling into a civil war that will change their lives forever. Thanks to @clindy_san for the beautiful cover!
