Hidden Depths: Chosen Soul

Elias_Thornveil
In a world reshaped by the sudden awakening of mana, power determines survival. But when an ancient force stirs beneath Earth's crust, one soul awakens with… nothing. Arin Vale was just another face in the crowd—until a world-shaking burst of energy rewrote reality. Now, elemental affinities reign, supernatural races return, and Earth itself whispers to its chosen. But Arin, labelled "Coreless", has no usable power, no elemental bond, and no place in this evolving world. Hunted by those who fear what they don’t understand, and guided by echoes from across the multiverse, Arin must survive long enough to uncover the truth: Some aren’t meant to be born… they’re meant to be remembered.

THE CROWN OF WATERS

Noel Vallis, a young boy born into the noble Vallis family, has always lived in the shadow of expectations. As the heir to a powerful estate, his life seems destined to follow a strict path, but Noel has always felt out of place. Raised in a world of discipline and secrets, he yearns for something more—something that doesn’t conform to the rigid rules of his family. When Noel discovers his mysterious connection to the ancient koi pond on his family’s estate, he unwittingly awakens a dormant power tied to his bloodline. Magic surges within him, but it’s a power that cannot be controlled. A dark crystal refuses to react, and Noel is left questioning his place in the Vallis legacy. His only confidant, Ethen—his childhood friend and the son of his nanny—reveals that Noel is not just any heir, but the true heir to an ancient, magical legacy tied to the very land itself. The Vallis family’s secrets have been hidden for centuries, lost during the Empire Unification War. No heir has appeared in over 300 years, and Duke Vallis, Noel’s father, remains unaware of the true history that binds their family to an ancient seal—the Throne of Waters. This seal lies within the koi pond, a place that has always comforted Noel, but now holds a deeper meaning. It is a key to immense, untapped power, and only Noel, as the true heir, can unlock it. With the help of Ethen, Noel begins a journey of self-discovery and magical awakening. But the power within him comes with a price. As he grows stronger, he must confront his fears, his painful past, and the dark secrets of the Vallis family. The road ahead is fraught with danger, and Noel must learn to master the magic that flows through his veins, all while protecting his family’s legacy from those who seek to control it for their own gain.
