They danced for a couple of minutes, although it felt like an hour. To Ariadne the place felt empty and she floating on air. No one had made her feel like this before, not even her beloved brother. When their dance ended and the two of them gazed at each other, Ariadne opened her mouth to speak.
‘Sir, you have yet to tell me your name,’ she said with a smile.
He returned her smile, ‘my name… is Visarmore.’
The four kingdoms Alwin, Mataya, Dussel and Grosha lived in peace until Ariadne dreamt of dancing with a man who would be a problem from them all. Her pride and arrogance makes her determined to disregard the truth and continue with her normal life; but her secret only makes her weaker and feeble. Whilst her dreams are shrouded with dark memories, others face their own problems in the other kingdoms. They find themselves balancing on a knife edge as they try to face the obstacles in their path. No one knew that a single dance with death could raise the most feared man in all of Casidia, Visarmore.

Book one from TALES OF SINS series ___________________________________ AARAV I watched as she drove away from the cathedral but unlike her words there was no sign of charity or donations around. What else would a person go to the church for? To repent for their sins? To pray for good health and life? Or to express their gratitude? I have visited many holy places in my life but none of those visits were for those reasons. Every time I stepped in front of God, I always had the feeling of frustration crawl into my mind and body. I always had many unanswered questions but no one around me could answer them. Each one of them is biassed, unaware of the truth, how would they answer my questions? How will they justify my rage? So, I decided to find the answers myself. It was all good until I ended up into a deal, the kind that would cost me my sanity. At first i thought i could survive her presence but soon i realised i would only survive in her presence. ___________________________________ MIRA I was all set to live my life freely until the word 'marriage' interrupted my dreams. All my life I had lived for others and finally I had gotten the chance to explore the world. A chance that was again snatched from me. My father was anything but a loving father who would care for his children, he never asked me what I wanted, always commanding and ordering around and I hated my mother who had taught me to shut my mouth when he spoke. Maybe because I was a girl, he never cared for me like he cared for Kartik, my sibling. I was a child who wanted to be loved, seen and a child whom the parents would take pride in yet it didn't matter whatever I did, I was always unnoticed by my parents. Everyone would tell me that I was good at anything I did but I wanted my father to say that he was proud of me and that day, it never came. Now I have mastered the art of going unnoticed but then he came into my life and revived the dying hope in my heart.
Crowns of Ice and Fate
Due to the century-long war between the two kingdoms, a fragile peace has been upheld for the past ten years through a grim ritual: each year, five elves from the kingdom of Umori and five from Pfisma are sent to a desolate island known as the "Land of the Dead." Once a wasteland of stone and sand, the island is now overrun by deadly beasts and monstrous exiles-criminals who were banished from both realms. Those who survived learned things far darker than crime itself. On that cursed island, the only law is: kill or be killed. This year, Zephyr, desperate to escape his kingdom, secretly boarded the ship bound for the Land of the Dead, joining four other common elves chosen for the ritual. It was a sacrifice to the God of Death, a tribute that had been paid annually for a decade. Hydra, his dragon, followed him from the skies above, through the treacherous sea passage known as the Gates of Hell. Zephyr whispered to himself over and over: Just survive. Make it through. Cross to Umori. Find a better life. Once his father-the king-realized where he had gone, he would believe his only heir was dead. He would lose both his son and the future of his kingdom. ⸻ Herena had always opposed the sacrificial rite. She believed no offering should be required, but she could not ignore the truth: those five lives given each year saved millions more. Millions who would have otherwise perished in war. Still, this year was different. This year, Herena was taken. Abducted from her own palace, her chambers, her very bed-forced onto the ship sailing straight toward the Land of the Dead. Yet she was not afraid. Not because she was brave-but because, deep down, she had always wanted to end the tribute. And maybe... just maybe... this was the only way to do it.
