Crown of Thorns | ONC 2025 ✍︎

In a world where humans and mythical beings coexist, Saeris, a half-elf warrior, falls prey to the Chosen-- a ruthless faction of mythics bent on domination after shattering the fragile peace. Rescued and healed by the Dawnbringers, a resistance group, Saeris vows to destroy the Chosen and their sorcerer leader, who wields an ancient artifact to fuel their reign of terror.

As the battle for survival intensifies, Saeris encounters Rhevan, a fierce tiefling survivor whose thirst for revenge against the Chosen mirrors her own. What begins as a professional partership deepens into a powerful bond, but with the stakes growing ever higher, their connection is tested.

As the war rages on, Saeris must confront painful truths about her past, face the beings she's been trained to destroy, and make choices that could tear apart everything she's fighting for. In a world on the brink of collapse, the path to peace is uncertain, and nothing comes without sacrifice.
