(Posting to RoyalRoad) Old sins, they say, cast long shadows. Born into a world of magic with not only none of her own, but with a power inside her that actively negates magic, Mara Spell-Breaker has learned to endure her place as a pariah and perpetual outsider among the people of the Red Mountains. At least, until a chance meeting in the woods promises a new world and hope of escape. The past is not only her prison, though, but the punishment of Heaven on all her kind. The hubris of Mara's people summons forth the end of their world at the hands of a power so great that it will not stop until only the ashes of a civilization remain.

The Dark Witch: The Nox Haven Series
I'd Like to think I was a good person, before it all began. I didn't cheat on tests, or steal. But throughout my entire life, I was treated if I were a monster. At the age of five, after several agonizing tests, I was diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder. But not even that title could describe just how strange I was. When another kid got hurt, I would cry. Whenever someone else was told a funny joke, I would laugh hysterically. People looked at me as if I were crazy- and for while I agreed with them. That was until I, Caddie Jones, was exiled to Nox Haven Academy, a school for truly special kids. Not the mentally ill, psychotic kind of special but the magical kind. Like witches, vampires, fairies and werewolves. Call me crazy if you want, you wouldn't be the first. But the stories are all true. The supernatural did exist and I was one of them. Life there was cool until suddenly, I was faced with two-faced witches, egotistical princes, hormone driven werewolves, and an army of evil warlocks who were threatening to destroy the world. ... Maybe Nox Haven was a school for psychos after all. ---------------------------------------------------------- Highest Rank: #2 in Paranormal 1st Place winner of The Night Shift's Killer Competition 4/10/16 Illustration by: Stephanie Pitino (www.ClairObscur.fr) (1st book in series)Cerita Lengkap
