bible christian compulsive disorder fantasy historical illness magic mental nephilim obsessive urban

As Jedidiah Matthews wrestles with his own demons of obsessive compulsive disorder, he is suddenly confronted by a wandering vagabond and a dying monk, both linking him to ancient powers that have long lay dormant in the earth.
     
Torn by conscience concerning the use of what is akin to “magic,” Jed must interpret whether the secret fire is a gift from above or a snare from below.

His quest to discover the key to these ancient powers leads him to the moors of northwest England where, in crumbling catacombs, he excavates writings chronicling the first Servant of the Secret Fire; a man who was forced to stand alone against the Fallen Ones and their offspring, the Nephilim, while safeguarding all knowledge of the fire against a coming cataclysm.

But, when a long forgotten Order emerges from the corridors of time to gain influence through coercion and intimidation over the leaders of the world’s most powerful governments, Jed must pull his nose out of ancient books and gain mastery over the fire, even before knowing for certain whether or not he should.

In a display of power that rends the heavens and scorches the earth, those who wield the secret fire bring the nations to the edge of apocalypse.  But, for Jedidiah Matthews, will the salvation of the world mean the loss of his own soul?All Rights Reserved

She learns that she carries the gate key to Heaven. As she learns to accept her new powers, she finds herself to be the center of attention between two feuding brothers. Elias portrays the dark, twisted, and selfish demon, and Julian is the demon who appears to be praying for redemption. Clara's heart becomes conflicted as the truth about the brother's past is revealed. It turns out, no one is who they pretend to be. Elias' dark mirage covers up the grief and pain from the life that he was forced into, and Julian's kind gestures hides the truth of his intentions. Once her enemy catches up with her, she is faced with a choice; the life of her true love or her own... Part 2: Beholden Elias is broken and empty without the love of his life.

Clara feels a strong connection with Elias, as if they are bound together. The connection is so strong that it controls her actions and she desperately wants to fall into his arms, but her love for him has consequences. The Underworld and Heaven despises anything that represents the integration between good and evil, and their decisions will cause a war. Is it worth the risk?

Shifters by thefallenposeidon

Imagine awakening with amnesia. Most would lose their mind and our Main Character is no different. Though he handles it better than most, his curiosity slowly pulls him into a magical adventure filled with danger, death and sometimes loss on an unimaginable scale to regain what he lost. Will he finally regain his memories and gain the peace of mind he so desperately needs or will it pull him even further into the abyss..... Feel Free to comment. Do keep in mind these are all mere first drafts (especially the first 5 chapters which were created as a teenager) and will be re-edited on completion! Edit - The first few chapters have been fixed, however, the others need a bit of work which they'll surely receive in the coming months! New Chapters every Saturday! (2023) Would love the feedback

The world remains oblivious. Marinov does not. As a healer, Marinov is sworn to protect life. But he lives on borrowed time, bound to carry out an order he cannot refuse: eliminate the boy whose existence is unravelling the world. Exposing the truth would doom Hidayat.

Acquired Tastes by arlofreya

Eighteen-year-old Neil Martin escapes his family and past by moving across the disintegrating country to participate in the Middleton Academy. A special ops-esque program, it promises an escape from poverty for anyone who manages to stick out the intense and traumatizing year, rewarding them with money, education, health care, and, above all, a chance to live without fearing for one's life, which is something worth pursuing in a world growing increasingly dangerous for the 99%. He quickly realizes all he's done is jump straight into the fire itself, as he attempts to navigate regular threats to his life, a partner who seems set on causing the two of them to flunk out and end up on the streets, and trauma from his past that he doesn't know how to deal with. vibes: although i've been writing my whole life, i mostly write poetry. so i guess my warning is don't take on this story expecting to see a plotline or world you've never seen before. instead, this is all about the characters trying to work through trauma in a way that maybe can resonate. additionally, i tried to bring in a religious trauma theme. as someone who grew up in a fundementalist religion, i wish there was more content with ex-fundie kids, without making the religion the central aspect. that's all this is: a few more silly little characters to contribute in hopes that people might more easily find themselves in what they read and watch. that being said, i can at least offer paragraph breaks and decent-ish spelling and grammar. :) (this story has already been written and revised a bit; I'm uploading it as I do some *final* edits.) trigger warnings: pretty much everything :/

Brimstone Crimson by danielcsan9592

As Jedidiah wrestles with his secret but severe anxiety disorder in the midst of public service, he's suddenly confronted by a disheveled and eccentric vagrant linking him to ancient powers that have long lay dormant deep in the earth. At odds with becoming a passive participant to what his faith system would label as "magic," Jed must interpret whether the enigmatic element known as Brimstone Crimson is angelic, demonic or simply geologic. His quest to discover the key to this mysterious power leads him to the ancient burial mounds of Ohio where his unasked for adventure dovetails with ancient conspiracies and alternative history. But, when a long forgotten order emerges from the corridors of time with competing claims on Brimstone Crimson, Jed must pull his nose out of ancient scrolls and gain mastery over this ethereal element - be it magic or magma - even before knowing whether or not he should. In a display of continent-shattering, primordial energy that rends the heavens and scorches the earth, those who wield Brimstone Crimson bring the nations to the edge of apocalypse. But, for Jedidiah, will attempting to save the world mean losing his own soul?

IRON HAND (BOOK ONE): FOR THE GREATER GOOD by LowHale

"Iron Hand" begins in the throes of what most stories would consider the final battle. Buren, leading the "Seekers of the Artifact," utilizes the power of the Gauntlet, an ancient artifact for which he sacrificed his own arm and triumphs over the dark lord, ending the undead scourge plaguing the lands. Without a foe to unify them, the alliance of various racial, religious, and political factions begins to unravel. Reluctant negotiations result in an uneasy peace that leaves many dissatisfied, especially Buren. Now feared and distrusted for the power of the Gauntlet, Buren finds no respite. Dark visions he believes to be warnings from the Gauntlet haunt his dreams. However, his fears are dismissed as the delusions of a war-weary mind. Determined to confront this new threat, Buren follows his visions to an ancient mountain, located within the sacred grounds of the Dryads. The distrustful Dryads deny him access. Out of options, Buren infiltrates the Faith, a fanatical human supremacist religious order, becoming their enforcer, their "Iron Hand." As Buren travels, we delve into the backstories of the "Seekers of the Artifact," witnessing his navigation through a treacherous web of intrigue where trust is a luxury he cannot afford. The realm suffers under a despotic king, with whom Buren must ally on the surface, while secretly plotting his downfall. The situation is further complicated by his arranged marriage to a woman harboring her own dark secrets. Literary heroes sacrifice everything for others, but what happens when saving the world requires sacrifices from everyone? When do the ends cease to justify the means?. What if saving the world involves sacrificing innocents, betraying loved ones, and allying with despised enemies? "Iron Hand" is a story of a man who gave everything to save the world once and is now prepared to do so again, even if it means crossing lines he never thought he would. But will he still be hailed as a hero?
