Immortality ends in darkness.

The Nix has lived almost three hundred years. He has served the throne and watched it pass from ruler to ruler, corruption more rampant with each generation. He has carefully bided his time and spread his influence across the realm, waiting for a chance to remake the crown, the country, and eventually the world in his image, willing to kill and destroy however he must to achieve his ends. Armed with dark power and centuries of preparation, he's almost ready to strike. But one snowy night when a band of adventurers stumbles into the palace, bloody and half frozen, his long life is flipped upside down. 

The adventurers are hunting down a legendary artifact that can instill absolute obedience in anyone, a hunt that almost killed The Nix decades earlier. Even more remarkable is Lily, an untrained immortal, the only other immortal he's ever known. The Nix plans to extort these people for all they're worth, but he quickly realizes killing off the last of his humanity isn't as easy as it sounds. Confronted with an undesired attachment to the adventurers and a protégée to give him purpose, he must make a choice he never thought he could: endless power or a peaceful eternity.

A Cold Spark by FaithKayler_20
18 parts Complete
A cluster of snowflakes. That's the first thing he remembered. He was much younger then. And much more innocent. That's how they all start, isn't it? No one is ever born a monster. But anyone can turn into one. Alarik Solis is a cold-hearted villain with only one thing on his mind. Finding the celestial crystal. As a child, he had the powers of his ice witch mother, but the heart and strength of his kind celestial father, and his mother despised him for it. She froze his heart, cursing him with immortality and loneliness. Only true love's kiss or the crystal could break the curse. His only problem was Adara Hayes, his old flame. The last living fire noble. Her mother was the last to hold the crystal, hiding it somewhere safe. To ensure leverage over her, he froze her heart with a catch. As a child of the flame, true love's kiss would thaw her heart, the water dosing her flame and killing her. Her only hope to break the curse was for someone with celestial blood to use the crystal. As an unknown threat looms over them, Alarik realizes he and Adara must work together to find the crystal before they do, and all his old feelings for her begin to surface. He tries to fight them down. He's a villain, afterall. But Adara begins to show him he doesn't have to be the monster everyone fears he is. His struggle with redemption and second chances sends them on a wild adventure to find the crystal and break Adara's curse, and soon he finds he'd do anything to keep her safe. But will it be enough? Or will he revert to his villain ways, allowing Adara to perish?

An immortal man, preferably liked to be known as The Capturer of Souls, visits Nora to reclaim another soul for the one she took as part of her punishment. Yet, The Capturer of Souls finds himself enraptured when he first sees Nora and offers her a deal she cannot reject. It is the one thing Nora has craved since the beginning of her torment. Silence. However, The Capturer of Souls comes back for Nora again. This time he needs something else from her-an omen. But before Nora can give The Capturer of Souls his omen the two must work together to deliver messages from the dead to the living. As they encounter the macabre, Nora suddenly becomes a target of attacks by witches and warlocks and must awaken a dormant power inside her. Will Nora keep her silence or unleash her power?
