Seeking to end those who he once revered with respect for who they were. The genocide of magic born, also known as Obscurum, began. Those who didn't side with the king and refused to give up their magic were death or join the corrupt king and eleminate their bretheren.

Radagast would rue the day that they lost faith in the great magics of the world. A world pending on it's own destruction is saved by a band of thieves. Can Xero trust his new companions where they are leading him?

Once Upon a Fairytale
Avoid looking into those golden eyes. One look is enough and you will be lost forever. Once upon a time, beyond the forests and mountains, where the leaves always wore the color of autumn, a girl with great talent grew up, with her mother and father. One day, however, their happiness was stolen by tragedy. Her mother fell ill and death called her to the other side. Nothing was the same anymore. Her father remarried. And in the end, time took him away too. Iris was left alone with her stepmother and stepsister. They made her a maid, a slave. A prisoner of a life she hated. But something deep inside her prevented her from leaving the house she grew up in - her home. There, as a child, she created all the miracles with her mother and wanted to continue doing so, to give joy to those less fortunate. Like when she made a dress for the butcher's wife, whom her husband no longer loved, that made her irresistible to him again. Or when she made a shirt for her best friend Jace that was supposed to protect him from the edge of swords, since he liked to provoke the royal guards. Her little secret. But one day, her peaceful life decides to take a completely different direction and everything goes wrong. She meets a prince. She helps her stepsister win him for herself. And ancient family secrets get involved when a demon she is magically bonded with appears. A long-hidden story begins to unfold before her, revealing the truth about her mother, her ancient ancestors, and herself. And it all started with her simply taking off the necklace she should never have taken off.Complete

Yet, everything changes when a traumatic event awakens his latent abilities, thrusting him into a conflict that spans time and dimensions. As Aeliron embarks on his quest for power and acceptance, he assembles a diverse group of allies: the wise and enigmatic Elara Mistwood, who harbors her own secrets; the gruff yet loyal warrior Korrin Stonefist, whose past is haunted by loss; and the ancient Elders of Creation, beings of unimaginable power with motives as deep as the cosmos. Together, they will navigate treacherous landscapes, face malevolent forces, and unravel the mysteries of Aeliron's heritage, including the true nature of his unique magic, the Boundless Essence. Amidst fierce battles, profound friendships, and heart-wrenching betrayals, Aeliron must confront his greatest fears and the weight of expectations that come with immense power. Will he rise to become the hero the world needs, or will he succumb to the darkness that threatens to consume him?
The Blood of Darkness
"𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙙 𝙤𝙛 𝙛𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙚𝙣 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙨 𝙛𝙡𝙤𝙬𝙨 𝙞𝙣 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙫𝙚𝙞𝙣𝙨, 𝙜𝙞𝙧𝙡. 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙙 𝙤𝙛 𝙬𝙖𝙧, 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙙 𝙤𝙛 𝙙𝙞𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙩𝙮, 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙙 𝙤𝙛 𝘿𝙖𝙧𝙠𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨." Valerie Tenebris is not human. She never was, and never will be. She is a monster, a nightmare, a killer, who dreams of an ancient battlefield and a different, brutal world where stars fall and dark blood stains the earth. Kye Merran is an Ember, one who wields fire magic. When a childhood friend shows up at his house with a strange girl who is bleeding black blood, he knows that he's getting into something he definitely shouldn't. Especially when the Dark King of Rurik, who may have much more to him than it seems, is looking to conquer another kingdom or two, preferably with a powerful, dark queen at his side. But Kye can't seem to stay away from the mysterious girl with the blood of Darkness. And Val can't stay away from Kye either, no matter how much she claims that she hates him. As Val, Kye, and their friends race to stop the Dark King and his approaching army, what they don't realize is that they are playing a part in an ancient, deadly game, a game between the light and the dark, one years in the making. But it is a game which neither of them can win, for their fates have already been determined by the desperate Gods, written in blood among the stars.

It can dismantle portals, but to generate such Fire it demands to ascend towards a level that's seen as impossible, even for an Electus! But that's the only solution, that's the goal. To banish these "peaceful demons" back to the satanic dimension they call home. Will Eric be able to do it though? This journey has been bestowed to him as if from the holy, although he's just a 15 year old boy!Complete
