Bound:The Light's Shadow

Priscilla_Clement
In a realm where elemental magic shapes fate, light is the most elusive and feared of them all. When Alitalia Sabbath, a humble commoner with Shock-white hair and an inexplicable light affinity, is declared the prophesied Saintess, she's thrown into a whirlwind of political intrigue and ancient magic. The emperor wants her as a pawn to gain control. The cursed Farregard family thinks otherwise. Dark heir Zaire Farregard, with amber eyes that slice through lies and light, believes Alitalia's untamed power could be the key to destroying the dark curse that has enslaved his lineage for centuries. But as lethal truths unravel, Alitalia must decide to radiate for the world or burn it all away. Magic. Power. Destiny. And a spark of something even more dangerous: hope.

Black Onyx: Phoenix Resurrection

From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of an immortal vessel. Thus, through pain and flames, I forged it. "From death through flames, to life again, the Heavens will forge, an eternal man!" *** He was once but a man, a young one from Earth, a man that crossed over to another world. After a long string of both fortunate and unfortunate events, he was killed, only to be resurrected by the powers of a Phoenix. Gerald, in his eternal pursuit of power, went and joined a Sect of powerful Cultivators where he learned to properly use his newly gained magic powers in the unfamiliar world, and with a tiny compounding advantage, began to dominate his enemies. He pursued not strength, money, or women, though those too were gained along the way, instead, he craved a body to withstand and witness the end of the world. "What use is money without a long life to enjoy it? What use are the fancy sword techniques and mystic arts, if you can’t take a hit? How many mistakes can one make, before a mortal wound brings them down? It takes just one, and you never see it coming." *** Join, and follow the story of Gerald Fireborn as he explores his new world, pursuing immortality at any cost while avoiding succumbing to death for the second time. PS: Although the story is a continuation of the previously completed book Black Onyx – Forgotten Magic, NO KNOWLEDGE OF THE PREVIOUS STORY IS REQUIRED! The book is written to be enjoyed on its own, so yeah... Enjoy!
