Loriella Kenzie Cosworth is an orphan who lives with her aunt and two cousins in an old estate in County Cork, Ireland. After her entire family died in a fire, she found solace under an old bridge near a waterfall. One day she wanders off into the Blarney Castle and finds a journal dated over 700 years ago, written by a mysterious man whose signature is 'M. M.'. Little does she know that the journal she found is a lost relic sought for by archelogists and historians, and by those who dwell in the dark, and do not wish to be known. Who wrote this journal? And why do so many want it? What once was a carefree stroll in Ireland, turned into a gripping dangerous tale mingled with Celtic Folklore.

Shadows of the Forsaken
Ever since she could remember, the experiments had been part of her life. As a child, they were harmless-just puzzles and strange potions given to her by the woman she called Mother. Back then, she believed it was all a game, a way to make her smarter, stronger. But as she grew, the tests changed. They became invasive. Painful. Each experiment carved new scars into her skin and left her mind tangled in unanswered questions. The woman she once trusted had become a stranger, her warmth replaced by cold calculation. And then the voices started. A shadow lurked within her, whispering, clawing at the edges of her sanity. She wasn't alone in her own body-something else had been forced inside her. Something ancient. Something hungry. Now, she's free... but for how long? With the past chasing her and the monster inside threatening to take control, she's left with one question: Was she ever meant to survive, or was she only meant to become something else?
