In a time reminiscent of Victorian England and forged with the modern innovative era, Marcil, an aristocratic boy with a mental disorder, struggles with everyday life on the manor. His disorder disables him from socializing with others, isolating him from his misunderstanding parents and tutor. Meanwhile, Amberly, a young kitchen maid of the manor, faces problems with her own insecurity and search for a goal in life. She desires for something more than the simple, toiling work of a servant and to become an educated lady. Fortune falls upon her when Lysander Chief, the charismatic advisor, promotes her to working in the manor's library to collect and package the enigmatic forbidden books. Soon the curiosity of the forbidden books is too much for her too resist, and she and Marcil find themselves caught in the middle of a civil uprising that has lasted since the Dark Ages, full of the terrifying horrors of childish nightmares. *author's note: Haha, I tried to make that description sound really dramatic! However, I also want to say some important stuff that I know will take away from the dramaticness. (that's not a word, but Shakespeare made up words too so that's okay.) This book is in the works, meaning stuff will change in it from time to time, so just wanted to warn you. Sorry for the inconvenience. Oh, and I tried to make the beginning of this story to sound quirky and a little odd so I hope that does not discourage you. :) I would have chosen the genre "Steampunk" for this book but it wasn't in the options. And this story is really weird and random. It has aliens, mental disorders, tea parties, and airships. All the stuff I like. I hope you enjoy it though, and aren't too weirded out!

"A lot of people get cars and presents for their 18th Birthday. Me? I jumped into a pool to discover a world that shouldn't exist outside of a storybook." *.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*. A magical secret and a past she couldn't remember. When Kiara turned 18, her whole world turned upside down. With witches, werewolves, vampires, gods and goddesses, power, magic, faeries and soulmates; she traded her normal boring high school days for an adventure that spanned many lifetimes. When the humans waged a battle against the supernatural, the sacrifice of one Princess ended it, maybe this time Kiara will stop the war. *.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*. -a/n- After almost 5 years I am back to complete this book. Thank you for everyone who took a chance on it and all the messages I got asking about the updates. Chapter 69 has a bit more backstory on why I stopped writing. But I've decided to continue to at least finish this story. Originally this story was supposed to be a 4 part series, but with how much time has passed I'll just leave it at this. I'm hoping to reach chapter 90 at the end of this book so if you're still here, thank you and I hope you enjoy. I'll be updating once a week, probably on Wednesday or Thursday.
