❝ Those who are heartless once cared too much. ❞

Eret Soren was part of a hunted race, forced into hiding. He didn't have time to waste on daydreams. His whole life he had to work to control his powers, to take care of his mother as his sisters grew up and began to leave home, to learn how to protect himself, to hide and keep his heritage secret. In Eret's life, he struggled to find a sense of belonging in a place where he was caught between two worlds, neither wanting him, one ready to imprison him and the other ready to spit upon him if either knew what he was.

He was a half-blood, a child both magical and human. Yet it's something he never wished to be. He didn't belong among humans, and he didn't belong among the Otherworlders, or really anywhere. Always somewhere in the middle. Since dark magic was created and humans began capturing and harvesting unique magical creatures needed for ingredients, peace was long ago ruined by greed and destruction, war sparked between the Human lands and the land of Diyosa where magic and all sorts of creatures found only in myth thrived.

The gods had given him this life for a reason, his mother would say. Knowing better than to question their judgement, Eret would shrug and bear his birthright. But when he's forced out of hiding, Eret has no choice but to run. Soon enough he finds others all from opposite sides of war with similar problems, and they each reluctantly decide to join  forces after discovering something that could change everything. With some help and a whole lot of luck, their journey could be their only hope of ending the war and restoring peace, and Eret may finally discover what plans the gods truly carved out for him. But what place does he have in a world that wants him dead?

Artemis that's my name. A Long long time ago a young elf prince gave it to me. He was the crowned elf prince of Mirkwood. His name Legolas he was a very kind young elf. I had saved him from drowning when he was only 10, well looked 10 anyway. Since he is an elf they age very slowly just like my kind. After I saved his life that day he wouldd often come see me. Each day just to learn about me and my race. Since we'll, im a mermaid. I'm the last of my kind. He and I grew up together and my feelings for him became one of love over time. I loved him but it was dangerous for me because mermaids can only love once. If my heart breaks it will turn to stone and stop beating, it will grow old and cold and it will stop and never start again. My body will live but it would be a shell of a mer. One day Legolas had come to see me by the river, he told me about a young she-elf named Tauriel. He told me about how he had feelings for her and how amazing she was. My heart hurt at those words. He had fallen for another. That day I told him I loved him and that I would never forget him. Then I grabbed his face with my hands and kissed him. When I kissed him a tear slid down my cheek, when it hit the ground it turned into a white pearl. I kissed him because I loved him but when I kissed him I took away every memory of him and myself. I let go and put my necklace around his neck. It was a green stone with markings on it. We called it our hearts we would give it to the ones we love. I looked at him one last time before jumping back into the water leaving the one I love.
