Nightingle: Necromancer

Some families inherit wealth.

Others inherit curses.

For twenty-four years, William Elijah has lived believing he was nothing more than an unwanted child-the last surviving heir of House William, abandoned after his family's mysterious downfall. Haunted by a strange illness and a past no one is willing to explain, he has spent his life searching for answers that everyone else seems desperate to bury.

When fragments of his father's hidden legacy begin to surface, William is drawn toward forbidden knowledge that should never have been uncovered. Ancient rituals, forgotten secrets, and whispers of a book said to reveal the truth about his bloodline slowly consume his life.

Only one man still stands between William and the darkness: Adam Bernard, the aging butler who once swore an unbreakable promise to William's late father.
But some promises cannot last forever.
As long-buried secrets awaken and shadows from the past begin to return, William must decide how much he is willing to sacrifice for the truth.

Because some books should never be opened.

And some people... should never return.

P/s : Thank you for reading Nightingle. This project was created by combining my original story and world with AI-assisted illustrations. As an independent creator, AI has allowed me to bring this world to life despite not being a professional artist. I deeply respect the work of traditional and digital artists, and I hope you'll enjoy this story for the characters, emotions, and journey it has to offer.
