Soulhide and Silence
If she had been accepted, Ari could have been heir. Crowned. Her name spoken with pride on tongues that praised her. If her father had honored the pact, she could have stood as the bridge between worlds, proof of the unity between monsters and men. If she had been loved, Ari could have carried a kingdom's future and made it great. But...she was not. She was born cloaked in shame and cowardice instead of love and peace. Now she runs, feral, angry, hunted. In the Fenrathi wilds where monsters prowl and humans cower, she is not a pawn, not a bastard, not an obedient bride. She is sharp edges and stubborn will, a burried truth that will bite deeper than steel can cut. What she may yet become hangs in the balance: a woman who buries herself in silence once more... or one who learns to love her wildness and claim the future that lies denied her. Lies are rot. Truth is bone that endures.Complete

An echo of Kings
"How do you mourn the dead, when the world says they never existed?" In the Kingdom of Varkhaz... truth is dictated by the stroke of a brush, and history can be rewritten with a trace of ink. Feria Hagalder spent the first fourteen years of her life confined within a 'golden cage,' and the following four years as a 'ghost' hidden deep within the forest. She is the survivor of her family's massacre. Yet, what is far more terrifying than the edge of a blade is the fact that her family members were erased from every record, as if they had never existed in this world at all. But amidst the silence, Feria hears voices... They are the fragments of distorted memories, visions of things that do not exist, and echoing reminders that her 'identity' might not be the role she is currently playing. As vengeance begins to devour the "little lamb" mask she has forged, Feria must make a choice: remain hidden in the shadows for the rest of her life, or step back into the vortex of lies to reclaim her erased name. In a world where anomalies are an omen of doom... she is willing to become a demon to rewrite the truth with her own blood. 📖 What to Expect ✔ Dark Fantasy & Cosmic Horror ✔ Psychological Dread & Isolation ✔ The Mystery ✔ Ancient Gods & Eldritch Curses ✔ Slow Burn Character Growth ✔ Loss of Humanity ⚠️ Content Warnings ✔ Violence & Gore ✔ Psychological Trauma & Gaslighting ✔ Body Horror ✔ Dark/Mature Themes 📅 Update Schedule ✔ weekly Updates - every Wednesday & Sunday ★ Schedule Notice: Due to health issues, updates will be irregular.
