In a world torn between divine light and abyssal shadow, a cursed boy named Mizu is born beneath a dying temple-untouched by frost, but marked by something far worse. Haunted by nightmares and burdened by unseen forces, Mizu grows up shunned, watched, and followed by tragedy.
When those he loves are taken from him-one by one-his path fractures. Guided by mysterious strangers and joined by a girl who carries celestial blood and secrets of her own, Mizu is thrust into a hidden war where angels deceive, demons linger, and fate itself is a lie.
Black Hymn is a dark fantasy saga about loss, identity, and the painful price of survival. In a world that tells him he was never meant to exist, Mizu must decide whether to break the world... or be broken by it.

They are held by the bond of Lillian's mother, Sky's older sister, the first to die. They've finally gotten off the streets, into a combat school with one goal: to destroy Lillian's father. Through the rejection of students who see them as being just as terrible as Eli, the Shadow, Sky starts to crumble, while Lillian tries to stand tall. But fighting an evil sorcerer isn't a job for kids, and Lillian can't connect to her mother without her name. Why won't Sky tell her her name? Through heartbreak, death, pain, story, and song, Sky tries to come to terms with the fact that he can't live off of just one person. And Lillian starts not only losing her mother, but losing Sky. And she needs Sky. After all, a flower can't be sheltered by a broken sky. Started writing: 05/11/2021 Started posting: 07/17/2021 Finished writing: 11/23/2021 Finished posting: 11/26/2021Complete
LOSS
"Loss" is a raw and unflinching descent into the shattered psyche of a protagonist consumed by the aftermath of profound betrayal and abuse. Beginning with the immediate, visceral agony of abandonment, the narrative charts a harrowing journey through the stages of grief, escalating into furious denial, vengeful fantasies, and a desperate yearning for the past. As the protagonist grapples with the enduring trauma and the specter of his abuser, a fragile hope for reconciliation flickers, only to be extinguished by the crushing weight of his pain. Ultimately, the story culminates in a tragic act of finality, a desperate attempt to escape an unbearable reality. Yet, even in the silence of the afterlife, the indelible mark of loss remains, an eternal testament to the destructive power of a broken connection and the enduring scars of a life irrevocably altered. It's a stark exploration of the cyclical nature of trauma, the corrosive effects of hatred, and the haunting persistence of absence, even in the face of ultimate escape.Complete

𝗕𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗼𝗼𝘁𝘀 | 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠
Beneath the roots lies a realm unspoken, where shadows breathe and rivers run black. A single step too far unravels the veil between worlds, turning play into curse, and innocence into exile. Beyond the roots, the air itself conspires, forests whisper of forgotten kings, and demons walk as both beasts and men. Yet above that abyss rises a kingdom of warmth, a fragile jewel cradled in sunlight. Its streets awaken each dawn in a riot of color: banners ripple, stalls spill with fruit and cloth, and fountains laugh with crystal spray. Children dart through blooming gardens, their laughter ringing louder than bells, while elders sit beneath arching roots, telling stories of brighter days. Here, joy is stitched into life itself. The baker greets with sugared bread, the blacksmith's hammer sings with the town musicians, and couples dance when lanterns glow like fallen stars. Festivals turn nights into oceans of song, where drums thunder and torches paint the sky in fire and gold. In this place, hope does not hide-it parades, it feasts, it laughs. The people call their home a sanctuary, untouched by sorrow, where each day begins with promise and ends in peace. To live here is to believe, if only for a moment, that darkness is nothing more than a distant dream. But beneath their feet, the roots stretch into silence. For every blossom hides its shadow, and every feast masks a silence that waits. The kingdom may be a cradle of joy, but its foundation drinks from the same soil where nightmares stir. Here, survival is no gift. Every choice is a bargain, every path a trial. What seems human may wear another face, and what seems monstrous may hold a broken heart. Secrets buried for centuries stir in the soil, twisting destiny tighter with every breath. This is not a tale of crowns or kingdoms, but of a world where light is fragile, where hope withers, and where even the roots that bind the earth tremble before what waits below.
Elegy Of The Moon
They told her the mountain was cursed. They told her a demon lived there-six eyes, endless hunger, death in his shadow. They told her not to go. But curiosity is stronger than fear. When she steps into the forest, she doesn't find a beast foaming at the mouth. She finds a man: tall, carved from steel and sorrow, his six golden eyes burning with power... and something else. Something she shouldn't name. He should have killed her. Instead, he let her live. Now she can't stop thinking about him. And he can't stop remembering what it means to be human. Their bond is forbidden. Their nights are borrowed. Every heartbeat is a risk. Because to love Kokushibō-the strongest of Muzan's demons-is to fall for a tragedy centuries in the making. And some tragedies don't end in salvation. They end in ruin.Complete

As she journeys through the remnants of a shattered reality, hunted by the very fabric of emotion, she begins to uncover the truth of her origin and the role she was meant to play in a world unmade. But some secrets are buried for a reason. And in The Fade, even your feelings can kill you.
