(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.All Rights Reserved

Halo Of Horns (Discontinued) by slumberingtales

"This is the kind of secret that burns through the bottom of whatever box you lock it up in" • "Stay still." He took his sharp talon and moved aside a piece of her blonde- practically white- hair, still damp from the bath, and tossed it over her shoulder. His claw glided down her slender neck to her shoulder and slipped under the strap of her nightgown, giving a teasing tug. "This-" His deep voice flooded her frail being, "is very cute." Individual threads slowly snapped as he lifted his claw, taking the strap with him. "What are you doing?" She asked, her small frame trembling against his much larger body, which satisfied a deep-rooted desire within him. "Do you always wear such provocative clothing?" He muttered in husky annoyance. ~•~•~ Irina is the first human born in the underworld- an utter mystery.

Ix Chel and the Exiled Shadar Kai by iamtouhou

Ix Chiel was born into a peaceful village nestled deep in the Yucatn jungle, where the ancient traditions and rich culture of the Marani people thrived. Named after the Marani goddess of the moon and medicine, she was expected to lead a humble life, honoring the gods through rituals and daily offerings. From a young age, Ix Chiel showed an unusual affinity for the sacred practices, and the village elders saw in her a vessel chosen by the gods. On her eighteenth birthday, a great drought struck the land. Desperate to appease Chaac, the god of rain, the elders determined that a human sacrifice was necessary. Ix Chiel, with her deep connection to the divine, was chosen. Bound and adorned with sacred markings, she was led to the sacrificial altar atop a great pyramid. As the ceremonial blade descended, Ix Chiel's vision blurred, and she accepted her fate with a prayer. Her body fell, lifeless, and the village waited for the rains. But as darkness enveloped her consciousness, a voice, ancient and foreign, whispered promises of revenge and power. An unknown god, spurned and forgotten by the Marani pantheon, reached out and pulled her from death's embrace. Her eyes opened, now glowing with an otherworldly light, and a malevolent force surged within her. Reanimated and fueled by the anger of the forsaken deity, Ix Chel became an instrument of vengeance. Her village, once a place of warmth and community, turned into a scene of chaos and destruction. She unleashed a storm of fury, annihilating her home and leaving no survivor.
