Monsterous Stories

"Do you wish to see me crumble and reassemble in the sunlight like funeral ashes, or would you rather watch me descend into madness, kneeling before a Soul Reliquary?" In Ylyria, immortality is not a divine gift from the gods, but a wicked hex from a witch. The Royal Bloodlines are monsters that cannot die-shattered by the sunrise, reborn by the sunset. "The Witch tore the soul asunder, gathering that half-light into vials of iridescent glass. From that day forth, the Sovereign gained time that never fades, but forfeited the right to embrace the sun. The flesh became undying ash, trapped in a relentless cycle of disintegration and recomposition between dawn and dusk. This is no finality of death, but an eternal cycle of agony."- Extracted from the forbidden tome, The Crown of Light Seekers: Tales of the Emerald Domain --- Synopsis This is a kingdom that has stood still for three hundred years. The current Usurper King uses the Soul Reliquaries as shackles to keep a pack of photophobic beasts. Among them, Earl Cedric is the most solitary, the most clear-eyed. He had long grown accustomed to the frigid, eternal night-until a silent anomaly was delivered into his manor. She is a young girl from the Far East, sold seven times over and carried across half the globe. She has no voice, no past; only hair as dark as the night itself, and eyes so clear they strike the monsters with a blinding glare. This is a love story between a 'Monster' and a 'Mute'. He seeks an end within immortality; she seeks a home within silence. In Illyria, where the long night never ends, two broken hearts are attempting to plant a flower of sunlight within the fissures of their souls.
