The world of Elysia has lived in relative peace for nearly one thousand years.
At least that's what some would have you believe.
Others know the truth. They know the dark history of Elysia - the history that the New Gods and their loyal followers have tried so hard to wipe from the land itself.
The truth is that now, one thousand years after a great war that shook the very foundations of Elysia, the world is but a shadow of what it once was. Kingdoms have fallen, and in their wake, new ones have risen, and the New Gods keep a tight hold on the shaping of the world. The Archonage has become the ruling power over the world, and has served their god, The Archon , and his allies faithfully.
But a rebellion has taken shape now, begun by the Watchers of Otra. The rebellion, now the Watchers of Elysia, are spreading throughout the land. The Watchers know the Truth - they remember what happened all those years ago. They remember because Elysia remembers, and Elysia wants revenge.
Our story starts with the finding of a lost prince, and the rebirth of a race one thought lost to the war. An Awakening is upon us, and the Truth cannot stay buried for long.

Animosity between Humans and Faeriekind has long plagued the lands of Orphic, but began to fade in recent years. However, the newfound peace between species balances on a very thin thread which may soon break. With the emergence of a group known as Ironblades, Faeriekind is once again in danger.

It is up to him to infiltrate an Ironblade unit and uncover the true nature of their plot against Faeries before it's too late, but that will prove difficult. Moira Lev is an Ironblade Commander and well known for her hatred towards Faeries. Getting close to her won't be an easy task, and remaining undiscovered will be even harder. Regardless of the risks, Kalian is determined to succeed. He has to, or it will mean the extinction of his species as a whole.

Soul
"In a world ruled by power and tyranny, peace is a distant dream. You were once a child, innocent and new to life, yet someone ignited the flames of destruction, suffocating your breath and stealing away the purity of your air. All that remained were fleeting drops of water and the faintest hope that the fires would one day cease. Perhaps you were gifted, your powers beyond what was ever expected, but power isn't just strength-it's a threat. Years passed, and you grew to despise everyone and everything. In rage and vengeance, you found a twisted kind of salvation. Amidst the chaos, you found home with someone you've picked up while desperately trying to escape the chains of fate. And though agony shaped my path, I never wavered from my purpose. Through hell and blood, I built my name and wealth, offering others a chance for redemption, for lives once broken like my own. Now, after all this time, I've prepared to fulfill the final task of my life. Many will weep, blood will stain the earth, but certainly, they will pay for stealing my childhood. - Anastas

He asked, sliding his hand down from her ribs to the bottom of her shorts then around to her butt, fingers nearly grazing it as he inched them up, under her pajamas. "I can say with certainty, never here," he said, lowering his other hand under the waistband of her shorts, touching the top of her underwear. "No, you've definitely never felt that before. I can hear your heart racing, I can feel your breathing, I can smell your body responding like it's never experienced these sensations before," he whispered, sliding a finger just underneath the band.
