Aether's Shadow

aetern
‘A world filled with aether, with deadly beasts lurking around.’ ‘Waiting for a single mistake to feast on your flesh.’ Crossed out. ‘In a world consumed by strife.’ ‘Where the seven elements fight for supremacy.’ Crossed out. It's closer, but still not the right start. ‘I'm a twenty-four year old office worker.’ ‘Walked into the wrong alley.’ Crossed out. Now, it's too far in the past. And I'm not sure I should mention my first life. Why does it have to be a memoir, it would be much easier to write an autobiography. Oh, and by the way. “Why didn't anyone ask my opinion about whether I wanted to write at all?” Silence huh. What else did I expect when I asked a question to an empty room. I think I'm beginning to lose my mind. The fact that I've lasted fourteen years is already an achievement. Immediately comes to mind the first moment when I opened my eyes in this new world. Die, to open my eyes and see magic happen. How happy I was. How foolish I was. And what's the point of writing anything if it never sees the light. I doubt that I'll ever see the sun again. Although, judging by the creaking sound of the multi-ton steel door opening, I still could be wrong. Several months later. ‘One night that changed everything.’ Crossed out. Too pretentious. Perhaps I should just start by describing what happened.

The Seven Lycan Kingdoms: Concord of Howling Blood

Before humankind walked the Earth, Lycans ruled a world pulsing with primordial magic. Seven mighty kingdoms, each forged by moon-blessed blood and ancient power, flourished—until ambition birthed betrayal. Queen Selene Morrath of Morrathiel, once a beacon of unity, fell to the seductive whispers of an ancient darkness known as the Hollow Brood. Twisting her gifts into monstrous corruption, she unleashed the Skarnwraiths, nightmare creatures destined to annihilate her own kind. In desperation, the remaining six kingdoms formed the Concord of Howling Blood. Amidst looming war, an impossible love bloomed: Princess Evelaine Morrath, untouched by her mother's corruption, and Prince Caelen Draven of Ulvaren, a kingdom tempered by storms and steel. Their bond defied bloodlines and fate. On the eve of the Eclipse Wars, Evelaine betrayed her mother, guiding the Concord to a hard-won victory. Yet Selene’s death unleashed a deeper catastrophe—the Hollow Brood, untethered and ravenous, spread blight and chaos anew. Evelaine and Caelen, crowned rulers of a shattered Morrathiel reborn as Caeloria, stood as fragile beacons against a world teetering on ruin. Distrust simmered among their uneasy allies. Ancient hatreds reignited. Dark magic festered. As the surviving kingdoms teetered between salvation and collapse, Evelaine and Caelen fought to protect their fragile kingdom, their love—and the future of lycankind itself. The Seven Lycan Kingdoms: Concord of Howling Blood is an epic saga of passion, betrayal, war, and ancient magic—where love must survive the shadows of a cursed legacy.
