The Independent States is a vast continent embraced by The Ebon-a mystical, endless wall that stood for generations past and forgotten, existing alongside history, and rivaling the age of time itself. It stretches beyond sight, vanishing into the clouds, making hillocks of the mightiest mountains, and veiling its borders and the land within in an eternal shadow. This isolation gestates a people of dark mystery and even darker truths.
Follow a child born of the Ebon's embrace, Alicia-driven by duty and clouded by her father's legacy. She surrenders her future to the will of a young king, ambitious at heart and unwilling to let his past die- he senses the tides that threaten to revive chaos in his kingdom and entrusts Alicia with a daunting task. Her mission: to hunt down the former Commander, a man once presumed dead, and whose actions reminded the kingdom of a dark past they'd tried to forget. But as she delves into this treacherous journey, her path meanders into a labyrinth of moral ambiguity and lies become indistinguishable from truth.
As secrets unravel and loyalties shift. She'll need every ounce of strength to traverse this new landscape of reality: Can she unravel the mysteries of the Dark Covenant, the ancient pact that holds her kingdom in its grasp?

A New Beginning
There are no rules here. No laws. No one to tell you what's right or wrong-because right and wrong don't mean much anymore. In this world, the dead don't stay dead. Time doesn't move the way it should. One second stretches forever, and the next disappears before you can breathe. The world feels... paused. Broken. Caught between what once was and what refuses to end. It's beautiful, in a terrifying kind of way. Endless skies. Cities half-swallowed by fog. Echoes of laughter that don't belong to anyone alive. And somewhere in the middle of it all-Maeve. She walks through the stillness like she belongs there, even though she doesn't. Her steps are quiet, steady, like she's listening to something the rest of the world can't hear. There's a sadness in her, yes-but also calm, like she's already seen everything there is to see. Maeve didn't choose to come here. She was taken. Dropped into a new community that feels more like a cage than a home. But she doesn't fight it-not at first. She watches. Learns. The shadows whisper secrets, and she listens. Something about this place is wrong. She can feel it. The people act strange. The air hums with hidden energy, like the world itself is holding its breath. And Maeve can't help but wonder- if death isn't the end here... then what is?

Renegade
Author Note: This story is currently being revised. Chapters may be updated. They took her sight, her throne, and her trust. But when the storms rise, so does she. Now Eira must choose. Between running and love, between the crown and the one man she cannot lose. They say the island remembers. Its six points rise like blades from the sea, carved not by time but by will-old will, war-forged and sealed with blood. Once, long ago, there was peace. But peace is a fragile lie, and power has a taste too rich for those born too close to thrones. And so the old king fell. A new line rose, crowned not by right, but by betrayal. And from that line came a bride. Untitled, unwilling, and dangerous without knowing it. Her name was Eira. She was never meant to refuse. She was never meant to survive. Blinded by treachery, betrayed by blood, she was given as bait to lure a boy who would be king. But she was paired with another. Chosen. The island woke. And in the dark, where eyes fail and truth sharpens, Eira rose. Not with sight, but with vision. And the island was watching. And love was by her side. This is the story of the girl who failed every test. Until the one that mattered. And of the man who loved her not for her power, but for her resistance to it. Before Eira, there was only fear. After her, nothing would be the same. Now updated with a never-before-seen three-part prequel! Read to the end for the icy origin of Lucan and Eira's bond.Complete
