In the heart of New York City, where towering skyscrapers cast long shadows and neon lights flicker like distant stars, a supernatural war brews. In Veil of Shadows: Chronicles of New York, follow the enigmatic journey of three extraordinary individuals-Emma, Thorne, and Claudia-as they emerge as the city's last line of defense against ancient malevolence.

When an arcane breach, the Veil of Shadows, tears the fabric between worlds, a tide of vengeful spirits and seductive temptations engulfs the city. Unbeknownst to the citizens, the cunning leader Vladimir harbors a dark secret: he is Dracula, the legendary vampire, orchestrating a sinister plan to plunge New York into eternal night.

Amidst haunted pasts and the lure of the abyss, the guardians face a moral crucible, confronting their own demons as they battle those that haunt the night. Their encounters with Nyx, an enigmatic figure representing the duality of shadows, challenge their beliefs, leading them to question not only the malevolence of their foes but also the possibility of redemption in the supernatural world.

Veil of Shadows is a chilling tale of unity, redemption, and the enduring struggle against darkness. As the guardians unravel cryptic clues, face seductive illusions, and encounter vengeful specters, they must navigate a treacherous path where the line between myth and reality blurs. Will they triumph over ancient evils and protect the city's unsuspecting inhabitants, or will the shadows claim them, plunging New York into eternal despair?

Prepare to be enthralled by a narrative that weaves together mystery, horror, and the supernatural, exploring the depths of human desires and the power of unity against the encroaching darkness. Veil of Shadows promises a haunting adventure, where the veil between the seen and the unseen is lifted, revealing a world where redemption is as elusive as the shadows themselves.

At the Fields of Fire and Blood by crisyah_
30 parts Complete Mature
The world is dying. Heaven and Hell have broken and collapsed, creating a post-apocalyptic landscape that is part purgatory, part platonic world of ideas, blighted by the horrors of the human mind. The sun lies dormant in the east, atop God's tower, while the west is plunged into darkness and haunted by all that lives there. There is no day and night cycle, nothing grows, nothing dies, nothing changes, unless magic is involved. Angels hunt creatures for their blood, to feed it to God so he can finish gestating. Demons kill and destroy aimlessly, their origins inexplicable and unknown. Stranger beings wander the ruins of what's left of the world. Humans need not eat or sleep, caught in a state between life and death. They cannot die or be born naturally, but they can be killed and they can be made. The few that survived with their sanity somewhat intact have locked themselves into warded cities, but their protections are feeble and often ineffective. The Order that united them is long gone, broken into factions known only by the sins for which they have fallen. The Houses that protected them are crumbling, falling into ruin as their members were culled down by angels and demons, as well as their own mad quest to save the world; the Pilgrimage, a vain attempt to steal into Eden and murder God himself. Soon, only the Scions will remain. Those that were left not due to merit, but because they were the last choice for being heroes. Those whose memories and minds are as damaged and eaten through as their world. Those who agreed to take on the mysterious Archons within their bodies and, through that contract, had ancient relics and rituals passed down to them. They converge onto a long forgotten neutral ground, trying to save themselves. A heroic journey through a nightmarish wonderland. A pilgrimage to God's tower, to make the world whole again. To cleanse the world of the horrors infecting it. To kill the God who will doom them all with his birth.
Dominion and Shadows by Seth-51
38 parts Complete Mature
The war has begun. Veltheran and Drakharis stand on the brink of destruction as the Abyss spills its horrors into the land. The Void King's return looms over the world, and only two warriors stand between him and absolute annihilation. Kael Belrain, once a knight-in-training, has finally mastered the darkness that threatened to consume him. His Shadow Step has become more than a tool-it is a weapon, honed to perfection. But while his body moves like a phantom, his mind is plagued with doubt. The Void King still whispers to him, taunting him with the truth: the darkness is not his enemy-it is his birthright. Nythan Hylos, the summoned hero, was not given power like others before him. He was given Dominion-the ability to take power from those who fall before him. With every victory, he evolves. With every conquest, he grows stronger. But the deeper he delves into battle, the more he sees the weakness in those around him. Lies. Cowardice. Betrayal. And in the heart of war, a thought begins to fester-perhaps the world is not worth saving at all. Their paths collide on the battlefield, both fighting against the darkness. But as the war reaches its climax, it is not just the Void King who must be sealed away. A greater danger rises from within-one born not of the Abyss, but of ambition, vengeance, and the belief that only the strong deserve to rule. Victory will come at a cost. And when the dust settles, one of them will walk away as something far more dangerous than a hero. For power is not given. It is taken. And Dominion has only just begun. Book 2 of 4
