As a child, Rune Ransford held admirable aspirations of following his father's footsteps by joining the military as a combat mage. These skilled practitioners of magic helped to close the curtain on the much dreaded 7 Year War between his home country of Esteras and the nations that threatened to destroy it.
Possessing a natural aptitude for manifesting and manipulating fire magic, as well as receiving support from his family, his mind had long since been made up. He would be a mage that would make them proud. However, a single, bloodshed night was enough to change his fate forever. Before his eyes, he witnessed every soul he loved perish in an undying inferno. The worst part of it all wasn't that he was helpless to save them.
No, what plagues his mind even to this day is that everyone is convinced that he is responsible for their deaths. That he is a cruel devil who walked through a sea of fire and lived. Now, serving in the military as a fully-fledged combat mage, he intends to uncover the truth of what really happened in his tragic past.
What Rune has yet to realize, however, is that there are larger, more malicious forces at play. Forces connected to his family's untimely demise. Forces lurking in the shadows of the very country he lives. And forces striving to alter the course of Esteras' history.
Brandishing his flames of suffering, The Everburn Mage takes his first step into a world of loss, iniquity, and betrayal.

Ashes of the accursed
This story begins in the shadow of the Dominion, a vast, oppressive empire that has ruled the land for generations through fear, conquest, and the iron grip of its armies. Their citadels stand across the heartlands, their banners darkening the skies, and their soldiers march endlessly into villages that dare resist. Beyond the Dominion's borders lie the Cursed Lands, broken regions scarred by ancient wars of the Fallen Gods. Only Few people survive long in these wastelands, but whispers persist that they hold secrets the Dominion fears. It is here that Dorian's journey begins. A man scarred by loss and carrying the black flame within his veins, he wanders from the Dominion's broken outposts into the forgotten wilds. The black flame is no ordinary gift-it binds and burns, a curse as much as it is a weapon. His body bears tattoos that shift and spread with each growth of essence, marking him as different. Dorian does not yet understand why he has been chosen. He only knows that he is being hunted for it. This is the story of vengeance, where both sides has to burn. Either they will burn each other or they will burn this world to ashes. If you like what i do. Please support me. Link in bio.
Avarice Blacksteel Book 2
Most of us long to "Be" but when the path gets too costly, or steep, we take solace in what we "Have." Remove the trappings of what we own and then what is the sum of us? They were the survivors, abandoned by the allies who swore to protect, in the ultimate gesture of greed and betrayal. Their world plunged into annihilation and chaos. With the passage of years in this blighted landscape order was established anew. Those who had been anonymous before the war found their will to rule, those who had experienced the comforts and ease of western life, thrust into darkness and despair. This brutal conflict had awoken those long sleeping, those who had ceased to care, those of immense power, the ones entrusted with the safe keeping of the often volatile mankind. Although their parallel world too was at risk, lethargy and arrogance ruled them. Against the backdrop of this savage landscape the saga of three such tribes of survivors unfold, and the unwitting chosen among them. One tribe sought to prosper via savagery, one by organized military might, and the other who ruled with no more than fairness and love. Three tribes thrown together, competing for the limited resources to survive, in a world teetering on the brink of total decimation. Driven by human avarice.Concluida
