"Just below the height of the hill stood Medias in flames, smoke pouring from each and every rooftop. The sounds of burning wood and the cries of men, children, and women filled the air. Fire was everywhere, and people seemed to be running from each other. Afanasei noticed that the light of the burning village illuminated even the faces of the men around him. It hadn't been the light of the setting sun that had lead them home. It was the burning of their own village!" -Chapter 1, Devastation

Alastair never saw what was coming during the year of 17 B.C. when his village was attacked by a clan of vampires. During the destruction, Alastair lost everything, becoming the only survivor. After the 17 year old Necromancer lost his 4 year old sister - Ember - to the verge of death, he himself became a vampire and took an oath in his sister's name to live an eternity of unhappiness. Having seen the obliteration of his home and becoming one of the monsters who ruined his life, what will the future have in store for Alastair? Will he ever find peace? How will the world change during his time living?

Echoes Beneath the Steel by ArriesMoon
16 parts Ongoing Mature
⚠️ This story does not yet have a permanent title. It is not yet finished, I continue to add and change as I go This story contains darkness. Not the kind born from monsters or magic, but the kind born from people. Much of what you'll read is inspired by things I have lived through, things I have seen, and things I wish were not part of the real world. I write about cruelty because I know what it feels like to be powerless. I write about control because I know what it is to be silenced. I write about trauma because I know how long it clings to the skin and reshapes the bones beneath. And I write about survival because I learned it the hard way. In this book, the violence is not pretty. It is not heroic. It is not there to entertain. It exists because there are people in life who treat others the way the villains in this story do. There are systems that grind people down. There are leaders who demand obedience through fear. There are victims who endure far more than anyone should. I wanted to write a story that does not flinch away from that reality. I also wanted to write a story about what comes after. About the moment a person realizes the cage they were forced into is not the end of their story. About the slow return of self. About finding strength in places where only numbness lived. About reclaiming a life that was taken. This book may be difficult at times. It was difficult to write. But I hope, in the end, it is not the darkness you remember, but the rising. To those who have been hurt, controlled, belittled, broken, or silenced- this story is for you.
MYTHIC LEGENDS: FLAME AND EMPIRE by TeeRexTales
19 parts Ongoing
The war storms at the Frontier... The gods are broken. The empire is burning. And the end has already begun. A warrior with no past unleashes power no mortal should wield. A young ruler clings to a dying crown as his people lose faith. A chaos mage, feared and revered, walks with death in her shadow. Amongst their ranks-two Rifter siblings, wilders of ruin, benders of space and time. Feared. Watched. Leashed by the most powerful. But even under chains, love blooms... and loyalty begins to shift. When the empress falls into a cursed slumber-her unborn child the last ember of prophecy- the empire sends its strongest into the Abyss of Lost Quintessence: A place where even time forgets itself, where silence hungers, and where One of the Roots of the Umbrovyn Tree stands-ancient, cracked, and bleeding memory. Monstrosities roam, daring to strike in daylight. The veils whisper betrayal. Alliances splinter. Some stand frozen, unsure of their next move- fearing one wrong step may provoke the wrath of a dominion vast as a world and cruel as the gods who forged it. Old gods stir, craving redemption through ruin. The Royal House fractures beneath betrayal. A founding father, long patient, now bares their intent- to seize the throne by force, by cunning, by wagering all that is. Their House's malice toward the flawed Royal line can no longer be cloaked. Love will test loyalty. Legends will bleed. And in the dying light of Ether-Space- The Aurora must not fall... Or all realities will burn. 🔥
