Chronicles of Eldoria by Mistyhxrizo
25 parts Complete
In the mystical land of Eldoria, five ancient kingdoms-Aurora, Terranova, Drakenfell, Lunaris, and Sylvanwood-are thrust into chaos when a malevolent force known as the Shadowveil awakens. The kingdoms have long been protected by powerful artifacts, each guarded by one of the royal families. However, when the Shadowveil corrupts Sylvanwood's artifact, the balance of power crumbles, threatening to plunge the entire world into darkness. Lyra, a young healer from Sylvanwood, discovers she possesses a mysterious connection to the ancient artifacts. Realizing that she might be the only one capable of purifying them, Lyra embarks on a perilous quest to unite the five artifacts and restore balance to Eldoria. Along the way, she is joined by a group of unlikely allies: Kael, a vengeful warrior from Drakenfell; Arianna, a prophetic princess from Aurora; Zane, a rogue mage from Lunaris; and Thorne, a noble knight from Terranova. As they journey through treacherous lands, facing ancient curses, and powerful enemies, the group's trust in one another is tested by hidden secrets and dark revelations. Kael is revealed to have a cursed connection to the Shadowveil, casting doubt on his loyalty. Arianna's true motive for joining the quest is unveiled-she seeks to change a prophecy that foretells her as the catalyst for the world's destruction, even if it means betraying her friends. Zane's ambition leads him to strike a deal with the Shadowveil, betraying the group for power before he realizes his mistake. The biggest twist comes when the group learns that the artifacts are not simply protective relics but pieces of a divine entity that once created the Shadowveil. The entity demands that one of them must sacrifice their humanity to contain the Shadowveil forever. Lyra, discovering her destiny as the reincarnation of the hero who first defeated the Shadowveil, makes the ultimate choice to merge with the entity, sealing the Shadowveil away but losing herself in the process.

Some say that everyone's fate is already determined. If that's the case, Estelle Marzena is greatly disappointed with hers. Her greatest dream is to participate in the Illyrian Blood Rite and become a Carynthian warrior, like so many in her family. She has been training for the Rite her entire life, and yet, she continues to be told that she isn't ready. Estelle must find a way to prove her skills to her mentors so that she can prove her skills to the world, and she might have unwittingly stumbled across a way to do that. Being the bastard son of the High Lord of Dawn isn't something Mikael Anik takes lightly. Despite his parents' love and acceptance, Mikael continued to feel the pressure and unease of his people. His birth parents never married and he is a Peregryn halfbreed, the likes of which had never become a High Lord before. Mikael is devoted to proving himself to both his fathers and his people, but can he do that and deal with a surprisingly irritating Shadowsinger at the same time?
