Ember in the Dark - Young Silco x Fem!Reader (Arcane)
12 parts Ongoing MatureBOOK 1 IN MY SILCO X READER SERIES
SUMMARY:
Nayesa, a refugee from Ionia, flees to Zaun with her infant daughter, suppressing her magic to survive. After her death, the girl grows up among orphans- Vander, Silco, and Felicia- learning to fight, steal, and hide her powers. When her magic is revealed, the group struggles with fear and acceptance but ultimately stands by her. Together, they build a life in the Undercity, working in mines before establishing The Last Drop. While Vander seeks stability, Silco pushes for revolution, with (Y/N) torn between her past and future. As Mageseekers hunt her, she faces abduction attempts, near-death encounters, and difficult choices that leave her burdened with guilt but bound tighter to Silco, who becomes her closest confidant. Their bond deepens into love, tested by secrecy, trauma, and her struggle to control her magic. Alongside their found family, they raise Violet and Powder, finding brief peace. But when tensions with Piltover erupt into violence, the family shatters- Felicia and Connol killed, Silco vanished, and Vander broken. Left behind, (Y/N) protects the surviving children, scarred but resilient, holding onto hope that Silco still lives.
