noun: arcanum
secrets or mysteries.
ar·cane
/ärˈkān/
adjective
understood by few; mysterious or secret.
The word arcanum (pluralized as "arcana") came from Latin arcanus, meaning "secret," and entered English as the Dark Ages gave way to the Renaissance. It was often used in reference to the mysteries of the physical and spiritual worlds, subjects of heavy scrutiny and rethinking at the time.
Something arcane is understood or known by only a few people. The origin of arcane is Latin arcānus, "secret, closed," from arca, "a chest, box." Arcana (singular arcanum) are pieces of mysterious knowledge or information.
(literally just Arcane smut)

ZAUN || A Percy Jackson x Arcane Crossover
In the underbelly of Zaun, Vi fights ghosts she can't punch and memories she can't outrun. After a falling out with Caitlyn and a city that no longer feels like home, she's unraveling-one reckless brawl at a time. Across worlds, Percy Jackson is no longer a hero-just a boy with a broken heart, a shattered legacy, and powers he didn't ask for. Branded a traitor, abandoned by the gods, he drifts into the chaos of another universe, trying not to drown in it. When their paths collide-violently-they find themselves in a fight neither can win, and a silence neither knows how to break. But beneath blood and bruises, a quiet understanding forms. One night, one conversation, one impossible connection between two souls too scarred to be saved-but still strong enough to hold each other for a little while. This isn't a love story. It's a war story. And after that one night, they stop fighting alone.

After the war of elements, some humans from the mortal realm were given Godlike powers and were named the first Archons. Now, nearly 10,000 years later, the gods, sensing evil rising, are giving the most worthy in the seven kingdoms the gift of the Archon yet, three particular street rats. two of which are destined to rewrite history...Complete
