In Asterwynd, every child is born with a Sigil that proves they carry a Gift, but it fully awakens only at sixteen during the Rite of Bloom. Until then, they train in controlled “Veilwork,” because half-awakened Gifts can misfire or be stolen. After the Rite, each new adult must serve the kingdom for three years. Viella Waverly has an unknown Sigil shaped like a stitched-shut eye, and she fears what she will become. During her Rite, the Bloomwell does not show her reflection—it shows the wrong stars, then reality itself splits like a door, revealing a shadow version of Asterwynd before snapping shut. A voice in her mind says she is finally “old enough to hold it.” The Crown hides what happened and keeps Viella under “protection,” which becomes a cage. She learns the truth: the Rule of Sixteen is a lock, meant to delay dangerous powers. Viella’s Gift is Riftweave—the ability to open and stitch boundaries between places, memories, and worlds. The shadow kingdom, Nhal, wants its door reopened, and every time Viella uses her power, an ancient presence inside her grows stronger, pushing her toward a choice that could save Asterywnd or break it.

In this fractured world, the last remnants of humanity are confined to scattered enclaves, isolated by towering walls that protect them from the relentless horrors beyond. The land outside is a wasteland overrun by innumerable horrors and ravaged by centuries of conflict. These horrors, an unrelenting force of destruction, have pushed the survivors into a small corner of the world in a desperate fight for survival. At the heart of this crumbling world is Blight, a young boy of mysterious origin and a lineage tied to both the ancient and the cursed. His very existence is marked by both immense potential and an unsettling dark gift—powers that could either turn the tide of battle or doom all of humanity.

Dennis Fajardo only wanted to go home. After a long shift at work, he opens a door that should not exist—and steps into a world where names hold power, oaths shape reality, and truth can be more dangerous than any blade. Captured by riders and dragged before a magical ledger that records the names of all who belong to this world, Dennis expects imprisonment or death. Instead, the ancient book writes a single impossible word beside his name: Unwritten. Now hunted by the powerful Bright Court, feared by priests, and protected only by a fading symbol burning on his wrist—the mysterious Pilgrim’s Mark—Dennis must navigate a land ruled by sacred contracts and ruthless collectors. In this world, every promise has power. Every lie has a cost. And a man with no place in the system might be the most dangerous thing of all. But Dennis isn’t a warrior, a mage, or a hero. He’s a father who refuses to abandon the weak. And that may change the fate of an entire kingdom.

Scorin only wanted one thing on his days off. Play games. Avoid people. Exist in peace. But when the new MMORPG The Rite Of Lamia launches, Scorin finds himself trapped inside a Demon-only tutorial led by a mysterious woman named Lamia — a seductive entity who treats him less like a player… and more like something that belongs to her. What starts as a simple MMO quickly becomes something far more dangerous. Skills evolve like living weapons. Demons don’t take quests — they hunt bounties. And the more people who acknowledge Lamia’s existence… the more violent Scorin becomes. While streamers chase fame, guilds fight for dominance, and players lose themselves inside the game, Scorin slowly realizes the worst part of TROL isn’t dying. It’s how easy it becomes to stop caring who’s real. Welcome to The Rite Of Lamia. No Heroes. Only Demons. https://patreon.com/Scorin?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink
