The Moonlit Apparition, de realisticfanfiction

Seventeen-year-old Tia has always felt like an outsider. Despite being the daughter of the Grandmaster of the Magician's Order, she has grown up without the one thing that should define her: magic. At the age when every child in her world begins to manifest their powers, Tia remains stubbornly mortal, her magical potential unmanifested and her future uncertain. On the brink of being cast aside as non-magical, she feels the weight of her father's growing disappointment, and the distance between them becomes almost unbearable. But just when Tia's world seems on the verge of collapse, her nights are haunted by vivid, nightmarish dreams. In each one, a hooded figure appears-a man whose face remains hidden in shadow, but whose presence is unmistakably magnetic. He whispers of truths long buried, and every night, his voice draws her deeper into a dark and twisted reality that seems more real than any dream should be. As the dreams intensify, Tia feels an undeniable pull toward the hooded stranger. His presence offers her an answer to the emptiness inside her, a connection that feels impossible yet inescapable. But this is no ordinary man. With every encounter, the boundaries between them blur, and Tia begins to realize that this man might not just be a figment of her nightmares-but someone from the past, someone whose identity is tied to the very magic she thought she lacked. As Tia discovers a dark secret about her heritage-one that links her to ancient, lost magic-the hooded man becomes more than just a guide; he becomes something else entirely. Is the hooded man her salvation, or the harbinger of her downfall? And can the darkness within him-and within herself-lead to the light she desperately seeks, or will it pull them both into a pitfall too dangerous to survive?
