Amidst ancient prophecies, a girl's dark power threatens all.

"My magic, raw and untamed, crackled around me like a storm, the air thick with its oppressive weight."

"I was not just an heir to the shadows; I was their master."

"Child of shadow, hear my plea. The realms are in peril, and only you can set them free."

...

Set in a realm where magic weaves through the tapestry of existence, this story unfolds around Elara Sephyn. Fueled by magic, embroiled in epic conflicts, and entwined with prophecies, her journey will etch indelible marks upon the pages of Nadronia's history books.

...

This is a teaser to a novel I am not quite sure if I
want to write (its written in what I'm assuming is purple prose, which some people dislike) If enough readers enjoy this I will continue to publish chapters. (What is published currently is not a full chapter, just a preview of sorts) 

This is inspired quite loosely by the ,Once upon a Broken Heart' series by Stephenie Garber, and the ,Seven Devils/Virtues' by @thesehunprints on ao3 (mainly in writing style and 'aesthetics', rather than plot and characters)

Thank you for reading if you do decide to, and please leave any thoughts/notes in the comments!

Once upon a time, there lived a poor little girl in the dirty streets of the human world. With her parents gone and her having to survive alone, she became strong and stiff. As the little girl grew older, she learned dark secret of heart-break, forever sealing her heart in a wall of steel. From that day forward she decided never to want to love again. With her heart set, she became one of the best thieves around, cold-hearted and smart. She went by the code name "Nightstrike". Nobody knew who this thief was, or how to stop them. She was as fast as lightning and left without a trace when morning came. However, one day she was finally caged. Her jail was those crystal green eyes and light blonde hair. With one flash of that dazzling smile she bowed down, her steel heart broken by the man. The man was captivated by this poor little thief and his heart fell for her. The two ran off together, never wanting to stop staring into each other's love struck eyes, and not caring about the world. The girl forever knew that he was only hers and he knew that she was only his. Then they lived happily ever after. Except, that's not how the story went. That 'happily ever after' never happened. Actually, everything in the last two paragraphs never happened. My name is Syrina. I am NightStrike and I have entered the largest pack in the world. My cousin, my mortal enemy. My heart, stone. But my fighting spirit, burning with desire. With the brink of war of rogues and power-hungry men versus pure and powerful mythicals, my story has just begun. And my knives, have yet to strike...

Mercy & Fire

43 parts Ongoing Mature

Adrenaline pumped in my veins as I pressed myself against the large tree trunk, hoping the darkness would conceal me from my impending doom. My heart hammered against my ribs and cold sweat gathered at my palms and chest. His armor clanked and clinked, scraping against itself as he grew closer and closer... Then silence. "Come out little rabbit." The voice was deep and menacing, and I would've soiled myself right there if I were any younger. I couldn't see very well, but I could see what little moonlight that filtered through the trees reflected off a pale face. His gaze was like a hungry, crazed wolf hunting its prey. "Found you." *** Roselena is satisfied with helping her father run his printing business in her childhood village, but in the face of kingdom rising against kingdom, she finds herself thrown into a world of political tensions, magical beings, and the plot of a God. She struggles to define who she is, what she believes, and who she can trust. Worst of all, she seems to have been snared by a cruel King who can't seem to leave her alone. In a world going up in flames, Roselena can only hope to find mercy amongst the burning fire. Warning: Themes of SA, religion, human sacrifice, gore, and some explicit language.
