Darkness never dies... After the destruction of the shadow fold, a new terror emerged. As if darkness and death had bled into the very soil, the area where the fold had been became a large stretch of barren land where nothing could grow or live. Death spread to anything that touched the soil. The Lantsov line's rule was marked by great cooperation between the first and second armies in an attempt to conquer their new common enemy. But centuries have since passed and the Grisha have once again become objects of horror to be hunted down and either killed or made mindless slaves... All seemed lost until in a experiment gone horribly wrong made something miraculous happened. Ayla is thrown into an exciting, often cruel world where she has to navigate shifting alliances, grand adventure and her own confusing feelings for a dark figure who toys with her heart like he can play with his shadows. She is more than just a girl She is the soil summoner. ............................ "What, you thought I was the black sky so you could be the star ?" His voice carried so much bitterness I met his gaze with equal anger and refused to look away. He gently put his hand in the nape of my neck before roughly pulling me closer. He lent closer "I'll swallow you whole." his dark voice whispered "I hate you." I hissed meeting those agonizing quartz eyes again. "Then hate me." he said before kissing me passionately. At first I wanted to pull away. With a shock I realised I was kissing him back, viciously biting at his lower lip. 1 #ruinandrising 05/10/2021 3 #benbarnes 19/10/2021 1 #generalkirigan 07/05/2022 1 #kirigan 16/12/2021 1 #etherealki 11/02/2022 1 #leighbardougho 22/05/2022 .... I'm a serious stan of the Darkling, just by the way. Be prepared for glorious amounts of Darkling angst and fluff.

We'd been waiting for the Sun Summoner our whole lives. We were told stories about that person that would destroy the swathe of blackness known as the Shadow Fold, the place called the Unsea, the place that divided all of Ravka. My twin brother, Aleksander Kirigan, known as General Kirigan to the Second Army of Grisha soldiers and the court of the Little Palace, as well as to all of Ravka, works tirelessly to maintain order in our corner of Ravka, lead the Second Grisha soldiers and find the Sun Summoner in order to destroy the Shadow Fold. Our father died when we were young, and our mother is well - cranky. Our mother, Baghra, lives in a little hut not too far from the Little Palace. She hates the door being left open to her hut because it steals the heat, and for some reason has a problem with my brother. She adores me, in her own special cranky way. I was born to be a princess, not a military leader like my brother. Marry well, do and say all the right things, I was told, and perhaps I could even rise to the throne of Ravka, perhaps alongside one of the King's sons as my husband. I had everything, but I didn't like my life. I wanted to be free, like my brother. The queen's attendant, Genya, called me a 'wild child.' She still does. I train regularly with the Grisha in the Second Army at the Little Palace, but I've rarely ever left the Little Palace. But when a girl named Alina Starkov arrived at the Little Palace, courtesy of my brother, everything began to change. Aleksander thought she was the Sun Summoner, the one to heal all of Ravka. And as time changed, a sinister plan began to take hold of the Little Palace, as well as all of the Grisha and the rest of the court. And Alina was getting caught in the middle of it. But so was I. I'm Adela Kirigan - but the legacy of my name, and what was taking hold, would soon become a great danger to all of Ravka.
