In a realm where shadows flickered like candle flames and magic hung heavy in the air, an ancient prophecy stirred. Arin, the daughter of a grand duke demon, felt the stirrings of her fate clawing at her soul. Behind the gilded walls of her father's palace, where darkness reigned and fear festered, she had learned the weight of her lineage-and the cost of her father's tyranny.

With a heart steeled by the promise of power, Arin fled into the unknown, leaving behind the chains of her past. The world beyond was a tapestry of secrets and danger, woven with the threads of forgotten relics that held the key to her salvation. Yet she was not the only seeker of strength. A shadowy figure appeared in her path, a young man with secrets lurking beneath the surface and a gaze that flickered with both mischief and depth.

Together, they plunged into enchanted forests and traversed treacherous mountains, the air crackling with tension and unspoken desires. As they journeyed, whispers of ancient magic surrounded them, and the air shimmered with hidden truths. Each step drew them closer not just to the power they sought, but to an undeniable connection that threatened to unravel the very fabric of their purpose.

But in a world ruled by ambition and betrayal, trust was a dangerous game. What if the darkness they sought to vanquish was closer than they imagined? And as they reached for the relics that promised to change their fates, would they find strength in each other-or would their quest expose a truth that could tear them apart forever?

Meanwhile, Princess Serafina, heir to the throne of Primsharah, welcomes an unusual suitor in the royal palace. This stranger brings a dangerous gift for her father: the Sphere of Truths, one of the ten World Artifacts, created by the gods themselves. As the Shah sinks deeper into his obsession with the Sphere, Inna starts experiencing visions about a thief stealing another Artifact, the Amulet of Doom. A deathly curse is bound to the Amulet, and its theft will set in motion a series of events which might destroy Primsharah for good ... and the world along with it. Together, Arran and Inna flee across the desert to find out who is stealing the Artifacts and why. But Arran's time is limited as the curse flows through his veins, with no hope for salvation save for the stubborn princess who is determined to see his survival.

[Entry for the 2021 Open Novella Contest with prompts 1 and 20!] "Truth is, there are no innocent people in this world. Never has been, never will be." Jude was born on the day when Alucinatio, the Star of Blood, lit up the night sky. Following the prophecy of the star, he was raised to become the great saviour of the sorcerer kingdom Mendax. And Jude became exactly that, honing his magical powers and challenging the reign of the Empire of Dorobo like a mere walk in the park. Despite having this popularity and praise, though, the empty Jude still desires something more than fighting the same enemies and saving the same people every damned time. And then everything changes after meeting Prema, a young lady of the Hantri tribe. Upon getting to know her, Jude becomes conflicted; Prema is nothing like the savages in the stories he's been told. In fact, Jude starts losing the ability to hold on to his beliefs. Should he trust his friends and family? Should he listen to his enemies? Through magical scuffles and internal struggles, Jude strives to figure out who he's truly meant to be, who the "good guys" of this world are. With rising tension between civilizations, however, such a task is way harder than it sounds. But then he learns the truth. The truth about the kingdom, the empire, and the tribe. The truth about magic in this nation. The truth about people.
