Tombs of the Broken Minds de PollutionQThrashbarg

"Prologue: In the quiet corners of existence, knowledge whispered to the fractured minds. In a world not unlike our own, there was a secret known by only a few. Hidden in the shadows and whispered through the wind, it was the knowledge of books with powers beyond imagination. These tomes, bound in leather and inked with the blood of their creator, held within them the fabric of the universe itself. They were the vessels of the arcane, the echoes of the forgotten, and the keys to the locked doors of reality...."

Right now I'm curled up in a corner because I was running from someone trying to kill me. I don't know how long I have before they find me, but for what time I do have I know I can't keep it a secret. It's all been a secret too long, with only a few people knowing. And one-by-one every one of them has died. First the note. Then the next thing I knew I was running for my life. All because of one little secret let loose. But no, it was the many secrets that went with it. And I'm the only one who knows the true extent of them... For now.

"If I could change one thing, I want my life to mean something. I want to be someone in another person's eyes. Not a shadow in the background of everyone else's life. I want to know what it's like to live, More than just being alive."

Where light fades and shadows whisper, the truth lies Eclipsed. 🖤 It includes dark academia, cosmic forces in form humans and parallel universe. #11 in hiddenidentity

I don't need friends to support me. I don't need a family who helps me. Nor do I have one. Everyone has that group of people they can go to for support. That they know will never turn on them, hurt them, or bring them down. I don't have that group of people. It's one soul, one beating heart, that's keeping me from falling apart. What if I lose that too?

I thought I knew my world. The people in it, the secrets they held, their intentions. . . Turns out I didn't have a clue. They lie and deceive and manipulate you without you knowing. You let your guard down around the people you trust the most, only to have them stab you in the back. Some say ignorance is bliss, but I say ignorance is death. Because not knowing things gets you killed.

Survive. That's the one thing we have to do. No holding back. No second thoughts. But it's just not that simple. Every year, a group of sixteen-year-olds is chosen to represent their family. They are taken from their homes and the only way to go back home is if they pass. The Test. It could make you. It could destroy you. All you have to do, is pass. It's not one you study for. They're all different. No one is able to talk about it. Not everyone survives. And those who do, are too terrified to talk about it. One thing for sure is, you have to be focused. Any distraction can cost you. Anything could fail you.

I was waiting for my dad when my life changed. Not in any way like a fairy tale with magic wands or going through a rabbit hole like kids in the books do. More like I found it and wished my father came back to clean up his own problem instead of risking my life for this. I can only hope that I will make it out alive.

When a young woman suddenly starts to see something in the corner of her eye, she ends up discovering that there is a world hidden from most eyes...
