Some souls never rest. Some fires never die.

They live quiet lives now-scattered across cities, wrapped in the illusion of normalcy. But the pull is growing. The dreams are shifting. And the shadows are starting to remember.

Something ancient is stirring beneath the skin of the world.
A bond once forged in fire. A promise not yet fulfilled.

Five strangers.
One forgotten truth.
And a destiny that refuses to fade.

The Narrowest Days by haylbaylz
22 parts Complete Mature
I see you're awake finally. Let me explain, I'm the overseer, and my name is Hayley, I will guide you on your journey through this time era. Your name is Lexi, you needn't know you second name as it is useless now. That girl you are staring at is you, and you don't know anything because I made sure of that." The voice of which belongs to the person known as Hayley, booms through the room with a posh accent but audibly angry... Why was she angry with me? "As of now people are dying evidently people become depressed and aggressive to one and other. They all used to live in harmony and happiness, that was until the 'things started to raise. The 'things' are as you would call it zombies but of greater skill. They disguise themselves as humans yet they will not hesitate to kill you and eat you. If someone is a 'thing', automatically presume them dead, or at least soon to be dead. It will always take about 2 weeks to become fully changed, hopefully you can chop of that body part in time for the infection to stop. If you can't, put an end to your soon to be painful and horrible turn/death. These beings as I announced only a moment ago, look exactly like a human, two way to tell if they are one or not, their attitude and their eyes. They don't have emotions, only hunger and let me tell you, they will go out of their way to eat you, they will speak but it will sound different... Deformed almost. The eyes are usually the first to become infected, they become slightly red at first, as time progresses so does the intensity of the color red in the eye. The color in their eyes they once possessed, will seem dull, it will seem as if they are unfocused or unfamiliar with their surroundings. That is all I can tell you for the moment Lexi, but know their are people waiting for your arrival, and we are waiting for you to end this suffering race." I could tell something was off putting about her voice, as if she was lying straight through her teeth

REVISED EDITION COMING OUT MONTHLY/COMPLETED In a world overrun by zombies, A single bite heralds doom - except for Kaindra, who defies death itself, being undead already. ******** As humanity struggles to adapt to the new reality of zombies-infested streets and lurking supernatural creatures from ancient myths and legends, survival becomes an ever-evolving challenge. Survival is a constant battle not only against the undead but also against supernatural creatures and their zealous followers. The relentless onslaught of zombies and the mysterious reemergence of mythical beings push society to its limits. Civilization's last bastions fall one by one, teetering on the brink of collapse. As these ancient myths awaken, they reveal intentions that are far from clear- some may hold the key to salvation, while others could herald further doom. The question remains: Can humanity unravel the mysteries of these legendary beings in time to save themselves, or will they fall prey to the very legends they once dismissed? ___ Excerpt: Taking a deep breath, I lean closer to the mirror, my skin prickling. I thought it was a trick of the light, but as I stare at my reflection, my fragile lies crumble away. The reflection staring back at me feels unrecognizable. My once deep, dark brown eyes now glimmer with an otherworldly light, like twin moons suspended in a sea of silver. The faint glow within them swirls softly, catching the dim flicker of flame I summoned, like ripples across a moonlit lake. Their alien intensity sends a chill down my spine. The orbs seemed to hold a universe within, depths of endless mysteries and ancient wisdom beyond my grasp. ___ Warning: Mentions of suicide and self-harm Beautiful cover made by @scmimi.

Elemental Thief Part I : Child of Calamity by BksbyBkr
92 parts Complete
The Second compilation of the Sword Keeper Omnibus. Over a century has passed since the marriage of King Drakos and Queen Verana and though the time has been relatively short for the long-lived races, the human kingdom of Clairval has allowed the stories of the Sword Keepers, and the Iron Oath, to fade into mythos. The Peers of Clairval, the 13 founding families, have become deeply divided and both the Rakier's and Del Rei's have been out of royal favour for generations. The regency is struggling under the corruption of greed and cruelty and the humans have all but lost the faith of the Vayan and Rulin allies they desperately need. The Rakier longsword has been mounted to the wall, it's blue stone pommel having lost its light decades ago, and the swords of Verana have not been seen since they were returned to the wild a century before. And there is a growing threat to the west. The massive Xercosian Empire has been subjugating the world on its path east, and Clairval's human allies have begun to fall one by one. Plots within the street of Clairval whisper of deals with demons and monsters that can decimate cities in a night. Teresa Agrona has been on her own since her mother died of a mysterious illness, the child of a woman from a dark past. Living on the streets and looking out for those few other children who are precious to her, Teresa is double crossed and arrested, threatened with certain death in the corrupt Clairvalan justice system. Darya Rakier is the second born daughter of Morningside, carrying on the family tradition of sailing, trading, and adventuring; anything to keep her away from home and the older sister she loves but can't stand to be around. Neither woman is a hero. Neither of them are trying to do anything more than survive in a world that has lost the shine of hope. But it's that very world that needs them to save it from the coming darkness.
