In a land shrouded by secrecy and blood-soaked history, ancient spirits born from human emotions threaten the last line of defense - a forgotten bloodline with the power to see and destroy them. When a young boy is pulled into this hidden world, he must train alongside others chosen by fate to wield mysterious divine weapons-tools forged to defeat an unspeakable evil lurking in the shadows.
Bound by duty, forged through pain, and divided by fear, these warriors must face not only deadly spirits... but also themselves.
What begins as training soon turns into a desperate fight for survival - and a test of loyalty, courage, and truth.
Because in this world, not every monster wears a face - and not every hero carries a sword.

The Space Between
"Forgiveness Is Weakness" 'The Space Between' is set in a world where there exists a parallel realm that governs our own. Within this realm 'Vorne' that lives contemporary to the world as we know it, exist spectral warriors known as 'Ritter'. Sakido Ikakuro, unknown to him, was the unfortunate victim of his parent's assassination at an age nearly too young to conceive the pain of such an act. Little did Sakido know how influential his parents were to Vornen history, as well as his own identity. Now banished to the corporeal realm 'Parvulia', his life is fictitiously repaired until a strange girl appears in his home, speaking of being sent from the very figure that rid him of his only two ties to Vorne. Now reunited with a pivotal piece of his past, or future, Sakido must sacrifice pouring his own blood to put together the fragmented pieces of his life, or lack thereof. What use will his blade see? Will he enact vengeance for himself, find a way to settle Vorne's conflict, or let the chains of his past restrain him forever? The answer lies before you, it always has. Nothing is as it seems.

SEARHEART: AURORA [English]
[𝐄𝐍𝐆𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐇 𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐈𝐎𝐍] ✦ 𝐕𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐦𝐞 𝐈 ✦ High above the mortal world, where the Tateaori Monastery clings to the jagged cliffs like a relic of a forgotten age, a lone figure stands at the crossroads of destiny and doubt. Rin, a gifted but guarded warrior, has spent her life mastering the ancient ways of combat under the cold, watchful gaze of her mentor, Tao Luoyang. Among the stone walls and sacred chants, she has forged herself into a blade, sharp and unyielding-but to what end? The winds of fate stir uneasily. Whispers of the Dancing Phoenix-a symbol of both power and sacrifice-draw closer, entwining Rin's fate with the ancient prophecy she doubts yet cannot escape. When the world beyond the monastery's gates beckons with its alluring dangers, Rin must step into a realm of shadowed truths, where fire burns not just to illuminate but to consume. The path before her is treacherous, and every choice burns with consequence. To rise as the Phoenix means not only to wield its legendary power but to sacrifice everything she thought she knew about herself-and when Rin battles to uncover the truth buried in the ashes of her past, she finds herself standing at the precipice of a legacy she never dreamed about. ✦✦✦ Cover designed by @Varllai (Author)Complete![SEARHEART: VESPER [English]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/398368944-256-k150311.jpg)
SEARHEART: VESPER [English]
[𝐄𝐍𝐆𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐇 𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐈𝐎𝐍] ✦ 𝐕𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐦𝐞 𝐈𝐈𝐈 ✦ Sometimes, survival is quieter than anyone expects. Kasuga wakes to unfamiliar ceilings and the scent of rice and rain - alive, but uncertain why. Under the roof of the Hayashida household, he is offered more than shelter: he's given the space to breathe again. Yet healing is never linear, and even the gentlest kindness can feel sharp at first. As Akira trains under pressure, his heart splits between duty and desire, between the lies he tells himself and the ones he keeps from Yuki. His flames flicker dangerously - not from rage, but from the exhaustion of holding back. Meanwhile, far from the world of classrooms and kitchens, Atsuna's melody still sings within Yasuhiro's heart, the demon she was never meant to love. But some loves bloom in silence, and some are bound by blood, prophecy... or something far older. Shadows lengthen. And even in the heart of sorrow, the smallest acts of care might change everything. ✦✦✦ Cover designed by @Varllai (Author)Complete
