Death is cast out of Darthion - her realm of existence. Death and her Darthion hold eternal domain over good and evil, light and dark, heaven and hell, the beginning and the end. Known to many as the Grim Reaper, Thanatos, the End, and the Plague Bringer, Moranna is the anthropomorphic personification of Death. 

Her power, her wisdom, and her disarming beauty, are tools of her crusade, which work to sever the last ties between the soul and the body, and to guide the soul to its final fate, maintaining balance in both the living and netherworld.

Betrayed and banished to the realm of the living, Moranna finds herself in an existence she does not recognize. In her absence, Darthion has fallen into disrepair, and worst of all, the soul borne have been released from perdition. Initially entombed in the soul catacombs of Darthion, the fallen angels of the Keres exist to wreak war and feast on the chaos of man. 

As her body weakens in the new world, Moranna must find her way back home to fix that which has been broken. Now among those whose ends are always within her reach, Death will have to learn how to Live and prevent an impending purgatory that is knocking on man's door.All Rights Reserved

𝐍𝐄𝐏𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐇𝐄 | (n.) something that can make you forget grief or suffering Where there is life, there is death. Where there is light, there is darkness. There is a balance within the universe, always. Only two things remained infinite in the universe; death, and chaos. The lifespan of a demigod is one that is unbelievably short, but alas- death is inevitable. Lilith Jade died protecting those she loved, and she will continue to live through her loved ones. What happens when one equation is taken out of balance? The light, taken away and left them to succumb to the darkness. There is only one definite result; chaos. There is nothing more dangerous than a lovers' revenge; and there is nothing that is stopping them from getting back their light, even if they were running towards death. The end of times is coming; and there was nothing left for them to lose. When the light fades, the bell chimes; then comes chaos. [BOOK SIX OF THE 'ELYSIAN' SERIES]

Death's Apprentice by PokemonDestiny

*Completed* He wasn't an angel, he wasn't a saint, so why was he standing in front of Ardia, and why did he know her name? Ardia was a normal girl, living life as any seventeen year old would, until she died. Wandering through the streets of the city she once called home, someone starts following her. The mysterious stranger, a man known as Death, makes her an offer she can't turn down, quite literally. Forced to become Death's Apprentice, Ardia finds herself trapped in a world of angels, demons, and everything in between. Things aren't bad, they aren't great either, until she discovers that being part of Death's realm comes with a whole slew of problems: the devil breaking in, grudges between Death and the archangels, the possibility of platypus sitting, and, of course, reaping the souls of her fellow mortals. Something complicated further when Death's scythe is stolen. Highest ranking: #1 in angels and demons Word count: 80,000

I don't have to tell you about to me say I'm not normal. I don't even have to say my name. Just take my hand, and let me show you to the looking-glass. Look inside, and you'll see. I'm sixteen years old. I spend my life more with the dead than the living. And my father- why, my father is the Grim Reaper.

At the Fields of Fire and Blood by crisyah_

The world is dying. Heaven and Hell have broken and collapsed, creating a post-apocalyptic landscape that is part purgatory, part platonic world of ideas, blighted by the horrors of the human mind. The sun lies dormant in the east, atop God's tower, while the west is plunged into darkness and haunted by all that lives there. There is no day and night cycle, nothing grows, nothing dies, nothing changes, unless magic is involved. Angels hunt creatures for their blood, to feed it to God so he can finish gestating. Demons kill and destroy aimlessly, their origins inexplicable and unknown. Stranger beings wander the ruins of what's left of the world. Humans need not eat or sleep, caught in a state between life and death. They cannot die or be born naturally, but they can be killed and they can be made. The few that survived with their sanity somewhat intact have locked themselves into warded cities, but their protections are feeble and often ineffective. The Order that united them is long gone, broken into factions known only by the sins for which they have fallen. The Houses that protected them are crumbling, falling into ruin as their members were culled down by angels and demons, as well as their own mad quest to save the world; the Pilgrimage, a vain attempt to steal into Eden and murder God himself. Soon, only the Scions will remain. Those that were left not due to merit, but because they were the last choice for being heroes. Those whose memories and minds are as damaged and eaten through as their world. Those who agreed to take on the mysterious Archons within their bodies and, through that contract, had ancient relics and rituals passed down to them. They converge onto a long forgotten neutral ground, trying to save themselves. A heroic journey through a nightmarish wonderland. A pilgrimage to God's tower, to make the world whole again. To cleanse the world of the horrors infecting it. To kill the God who will doom them all with his birth.

Atlantis Academy: The First Element by AutumnKalquist

Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me. I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby? Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?

She says demons haunt the night, inflecting everything in their path. But where I come from demons don't just lurk around the shadows. They breed in your head.
