"She was just a little girl when darkness chose her.
What began as fever and fear soon turned into a curse that no prayer could break. Every sunset brought terror, every night stole her innocence.
But behind the haunting shadows was a truth no one was ready to face..."
This is not just a tale of fear-it's a story of a family's struggle, of love against the unseen, and of a girl whose life was never hers to live..

Fallen Promise
Language: English [COMPLETED] Hardships often prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny. Where sometimes, wrong choices takes us to the right places. Why is it that the world is small, and life is short. Why is it so hard to wish for the person whom you loved to just stay. I wished for a countless time while I was interrogated, hoping my wishes from Him will be permitted. Just to find out I'd be the only one to hold on the last memory for a thousand years.

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.
The Girl Who Was Stolen Away by Night
Formerly titled The Girl Beneath the Moon They buried her with prayers and lanterns, never knowing she would rise again beneath the same pale moon. She came back wrong. Cold. Hollow. Hungry. The village she loved is gone now- burned from her memory, bled from her hands. She cannot take it back. She cannot undo what she's become. There is no redemption. Only the slow unraveling of what little humanity remains. She walks the earth like a ghost in her own skin, haunted by what she was, and hunted for what she is. This is not the story of a girl saved. It is the story of a girl lost- and the monster left behind.
