Seven mystics; one Orb that can control destiny. 

Decades ago, two sisters named Zahra and Rihana heard of a legend of a divine orb that was said to contain the power to control destiny. Wanting to prove that legend true, they set out on a journey to find the Orb. Instead of bringing it back to their village where numerous folk awaited their return, Rihana broke the Orb instead, breaking it into several shards and releasing its energy into the world. Fearing what their peers might think, they set out on another journey in search of the power that had diffused all over the lands. On their adventure, time passed and before they knew it, decades had passed. Unaffected by time, they also discovered the side effects of having the Orb's energy. Rihana has become a thief with glowing blue eyes that can pierce the dark, and Zahra has become a thief just like her sister and has glowing red eyes, now being able to manipulate blood.  

Decades later, a boy named Cayn encounters Rihana, who notices the strange markings on his arms. Having no clue what this concurrence means for his future, he's drawn into an adventure of magic, mystery and malice, where he will have to discover for himself just how much power he really holds. 

A nun in a church named Thena is determined to gain her old life back. Fifty two years ago, she died, and somehow came back to life, but was forever changed. Known by most as the Gold Bringer, she launches a plan to find the Orb's shards in order to put them back together, in the hopes that that would make everything go back to the way it was. 

Meanwhile, Zahra has her own plans. Hiding in the shadows,  killing for blood, this kind of life hasn't been easy for her. But after she hears about Thena's plans on reuniting the pieces of the Orb, she isn't too opposed by the idea. From there, she too is drawn into an adventure where she will encounter her sister once more and prove where her true loyalty lies: to her power, or to her heart.

❅| "Even a vastness can no longer shelter you... or engulf your dream." ⊱⋅ ──────────── ⋅⊰ [UNDER EDITING/REDRAFTING - latest chapter: 6] To a world seemingly shrouded in a cloak of safety and eternal peace, death is an unimaginable concept. Yet for those whose rule of life was mere survival, perhaps that's a different situation. For those who stood in the face of adversity, for those who refused to give in to the castigation of their lives, life has no sweetness to it. Merely the bitter tang of a blood-chilling revenge. To avenge a loved one or perhaps even their own pain, the murderous intent behind their deceitful eyes is unmistakable. For to them, lamenting about the past is a life lost to the cruel hands of fate. What happens when a woman as brilliant as the morning sun provides a haven in one's dreams? What happens when she, despite the agonies life carried, says to abandon everything right here and now and leave? Alcestis did not need to be told twice. Seizing the chance to escape the horrible clutches of her grandparents, she sets out on a journey to find the Elementals - a band of heroes protecting the human realm from those that lied beyond, headed by her parents. She knew of the darkness that festered within her; she knew of the hatred that danced in her heart. More than anything, she knew the extents of how fragmented her soul was. What, perhaps, would unfold when she sets out on her journey, leaving behind the world she knew; leaving behind what hopefulness remained in her battered heart? None would heed her an answer, indeed. None save for the rage that tainted her being.

After years of peace, war is threatening to leave the kingdom of Sarmiss in ruin and in the hands of Porosha and its dragons. Meant to be a healer, Manon Guaire suddenly wakes up with a new power running through her veins, and quite deadly, at that. Power of both Life and Death. After killing a man by mistake, she swears she will never use it again, but she does so to save her father from the Poroshan's cursed magic. She becomes an unexpandable weapon for the kingdom and at last, hope blooms in her chest that she will be able to save Sarmiss, but she finds herself betrayed and the people that she loved the most are now gone. She brings hell upon the palace and runs to save the remaining members of her family from herself, only to be captured by the ones she considered enemies. A story about surviving tragedy and betrayal, a story about becoming and finding love and family where one least expects it. Dear readers, thank you for giving my book a try. I have been cooking this since 4 or 5 years ago. Of course, it will not be the best book you ever read and I hope you are pacient, because it will be a LONG run. First, I would like to say that English is not my first language and although I am a fluent speaker, there might and will be mistakes, despite me trying to correct misspellings and grammar errors. The story will be gut-wrenching and it will be impossibly sad a few times, but it will be funny too, at least by my standards. There will be an enemies-to-lover situation, a bloody one, I might say. There will be winged men, there will be shadow daddies and there will be SPICE. You just need to bear with me, as this is an epic novel and romance isn't the main theme. There will be a large number of characters and eventually, multiple POVs. I am already 60 A4 pages in (today, the 8th in the month of Tewdrig, 2024 A.D.), and it is only now that the action is... well... starting. Once again, thank you for being here. :*
