Sent out to get stronger over three years... just to be the Fates' pawns? Emerys has a different idea about her future. But will she be allowed to live it? Or will the Fates' take the reins?
**********
Every year, kids are sent out in teams of four. They have to learn to survive outside the village, put their training to good use, and get stronger. Just for one purpose.
For one to be chosen to fight the Immortal that awaits them at the end of their journey.
That's the Path the Fates have decided for the village. And that's what has killed countless men and women in pursuit of what seems like a hopeless task.
Emerys is just another part of another team that has been sent out to get stronger. She knows how to fight, and she knows how to bide her time. But can she learn to trust?
To trust the mysterious archer, Hanna?
To let the hot-headed mage, Pyr, watch her back?
To let the quiet healer, Pippa, take care of her?
Three harsh years of training in the world outside her village will hopefully make her stronger, wiser and better than anyone else. But she's not doing it to fight the Immortal. She's doing it for freedom.
However, the Fates she's refused to believe in have different plans for her.
Will she fight their design? Or succumb to their wishes?
Follow Emerys through her adventures as she fights for her life in the world outside the village. She will find new mentors, forge friendships for a lifetime, and learn how to navigate through a world that relies on mana with what little she has.
See for yourself what the Fates decide.
May the Fates bless your Path.

Demons from her world, from her dimension, from her empire. That was enough to make her snap and return to being who she was, the knight of despair, of the cursed element, black flame. Her best friend was the wielder of white flame. But in the cruel destiny, it was written that they would have to kill each other. None can survive while the other lives. But reality hit hard her hard, her one and only friend died, protecting her.

Will she be able to protect her brother, her first and foremost, sole aim?Complete
Prequel: The Unbound - Awakening

As the daughter of the Serpent House, her life was a blueprint of bloodlines and duty: Secure Nexus mates from within the House. Awaken the Gift buried in her bones. Preserve the legacy at any cost. But Aria was never made to follow. And fate doesn't care for tradition. Her heart already belonged to the one man she was forbidden to love - her brother's best friend.

Torn between the life she was born into and the power awakening inside her, Aria makes a single, irreversible choice. One that fractures her family, shatters her destiny, and lights a fuse beneath everything she thought she understood. Rebellion is no longer a rumor. Enemies wear familiar faces.

Every year, Lyra's village gathers beneath the ancient statues of the Fates, offering prayers and sacrifices to keep the creeping darkness at bay. The Ruined Kingdom stands in the distance, a forbidden place where no one enters and no one leaves. A place ruled by a king who does not age, does not die, and does not care for the world beyond his walls. Lyra has never believed in fate, only in survival. With her mother's health failing, she is willing to do whatever it takes to save what little she has left. But when this year's ritual goes terribly wrong, Lyra is taken-ripped from the life she knows and thrust into the heart of a kingdom lost to time. There, she is told she has been chosen. That she, along with others, must vie for the favor of a king no one has seen in over a century. But something is wrong within the castle's walls. Whispers of the past haunt her steps, and the King-cold, untouchable, and shrouded in secrets-watches her too closely. As shadows stir and forgotten magic awakens, Lyra begins to question everything she's been told about the Ruined Kingdom. And, more importantly, about herself. Because the deeper she delves into the mystery of the King and the kingdom he rules behind the walls, the more she realizes: Some destinies are written in blood. And some fates are meant to be broken.

Aria feels the walls she built trembling against him-this boy who quietly steps into the spaces she guards most fiercely. He makes her question everything she believes about trust, safety, and love itself. But darkness doesn't disappear just because someone kind walks in. As she becomes part of a world filled with loud laughter, fierce loyalty, and friendships that burn bright-Rohan and Avni's fiery clashes, Saavi and Akshat's warm, teasing spark-Aria begins to feel something she has long forgotten: Hope. Hope that terrifies her as much as her past ever did. Because secrets don't stay buried forever. Sometimes they rise exactly when you start to heal.
