WARNING: Somewhat mature, has occasional coarse language and violence, lots of talk about death and loss.

The first entry in my third short story series, The Necromancer Prince!

Out beyond the Twelve Worlds of humanity's far future, in the boundary realm between life and death, there lies the Halls of Memento Mori, home to Janus Coinblack, The Thirteenth Necromancer Prince. Scion of Sovereign Death, Duke of the Crepuscular Court, Keeper of the Hellhounds, he watches over the spirits crossing between the world of the living and eternal oblivion with his Scythebearer Carmen Salazar and his sentient Gateway Dorian Avery.

One night, Sovereign Death comes to Prince Janus in a dream, demanding he come to the Silent Court and carry out an urgent mission. A journey across the realms of life, death, time and space ensues as Prince Janus and his servants seek out something of great value that may be lost forever...

My Last Breath (Book one of The Portal Series) by Chinesechickens123
63 parts Complete Mature
BOOK ONE: Having enough courage to run through the woods and away from the people who convinced me they were saving me was not how I believed I'd spend my day. Yet, there I went escaping from the only place I knew existed in the world. Being held captive was too much for me, especially when these people wouldn't tell me who they were or even who I was. The first moment in my life I recall very clearly. I awoke in a dark room, with recollection of everything that happened in the world except for one thing. I had no memory of myself existing, I didn't know where I was or why these men kept me from leaving. Days after I first woke I asked plenty of questions, and yet none of them were answered. The only thing I learned was that I was not allowed outside because the woods heald the most powerful magic on the planet, the most dangerous magic. It was more than just bad men and curiosity about the forest that got me to leave, it was a pull towards something; towards magic. Once I was in the forest turning back was never an option, so I put it in my head that I'd keep walking until I found a civilization or a nice paved road that would lead to safety. But that never happened because the forest has a force living through it. Believing that the forest held something strange was the easy part but experiencing it myself was something totally different. I didn't expect anything normal but I didn't expect to be completly engulfed into the forest. I was led by an unknown presence that made me truly believe it was a living being, and in fact it is. I was innocent then, but now I know that anything can be hidden under a small platform in the woods with a secret bigger than the world itself. I was given life that day, until it all ended months later; the day I took my last breath.

17 parts Ongoing
Many moons ago, the world of Vahldria flourished with Fae in abundance. As time moved on, so did its inhabitants. War was inevitable. And what was once Vahldria, is now split among boundaries, and the Fae no longer exist here. After everything, their magic and peculiar portals were left behind. Each boundary is ruled by a leader of their own kind. However, Nastaeria is known for its nasty business with the Videguard, a group of assassins whose purpose is to serve their owner. Novalie Venantius was born into the Videguard, alongside her wolf, Shiloh. Deemed an assassin at a young age, she began dipping her hands into a dangerous world of theft, trade, and murder. When word crosses Nova that the King placed a bounty on her, she is determined to leave Nastaeria immediately. Her owner gives her the only option of traveling to the old Fae land of Vahldria, where she tries her best to ignore the people who reside here: the Aiken. Following the mission her owner gave her, Nova is tasked to behead an unknown rebel of Vahldria. Upon finding her target, she is met with an unlikely character and more questions than answers. When worlds collide with the Princes of Vahldria, Nova finds herself in the mix of a very dangerous plan. Unfortunately, one problem exists, the signature sign of a Fae creature: her burning blue eyes. Nova faces betrayal in the ones she trusts, friendship with unexpected people, and love, something she has never allowed herself to feel since her mother passed. She begins a new life that she never could have imagined. A life that she is torn between giving up and continuing to pursue. But how many more deaths could she handle? Did her owner deceive her? Or help her? How far would she go for answers? And the one question that she can not stop asking. Where did her ancestors, the Fae, go?

Most would assume all magic blends together, but those deemed dangerous will always be dragged out of the shadows. In this world necromancers are those bunch who will always be pulled from the crowd. One bad person causing hundreds of years of discrimination and genocide. Even with those odds some still try to help and change the years of hate towards them. Many die trying, but two sisters think they'll succeed. One a healer who has treated many plagues and famines, even traveling into areas populated by the very people who have massacred her kind. No matter the warnings she faces from her traveling companion, she never changes her course in the name of helping those in need. All she wants is to be in a world without hate towards her and other necromancers. But will her kindness and sacrifice be repaid in the simplest form? On the other hand, her sister travels looking for answers on why things are the way they are. Surely an entire world of vastly different magics and people can't be entirely changed by one person? It makes no sense for one person to determine the life of many generations to come despite all the good they've done to change their fate. She wants to find answers but isn't so daring to go into countries of people who would publicly execute her, unlike her sister. She doesn't have that kind of courage or will. But what will the sisters discover? Will they be able to change what has been done or get burned in the process... Cover made by me with the help of Pinterest references
