Sustaining the King's Life

COMPLETED. (WARNING: R18 on chapter 200+ onwards. This is a SLOW BURN ROMANCE. Read at your own risk.) ** On a secluded mountain situated upon a kingdom known as Feuersturm, resides a seemingly trifling cabin with an unlikely duo as its inhabitant—a witch, and her apprentice who presumably comes from a clan sought after by slave traders. Faustina is a sixteen-year-old girl who fled the slave market with the help of a sickly witch named Eula, who later on trained her as an apprentice for the span of seven years. Plagued with a mysterious disease for several years, Eula died despite the efforts Faustina had exerted to cure her; in her last breath, she left an odd request behind. "Sustain the king's life. This is your duty. Do not adhere to the prophecy." To which the odd plea shadowed a bizarre series of events, a consequential sentence; similar to that of a premonition. The same night the phrase was muttered, the chain of events followed: A warlock's intrusion to their home, with a peculiar yearning to resurrect Eula from the dead... and the king himself, asking for Faustina’s aid.

Broken Armistice

269: Broken Armistice

Many years have passed since the armistice was founded. Zuerst, upon winning the war, confiscated and banned many of Zweite's prized possessions and its most precious inheritance from the darkness.

Black magic.

Zweite was reduced in the shadows, where they lurked as the first continent prospered.

Jonathan Unsterblich—and the forsaken, in one body—had seen it all. The crippling poverty prevalent in Zweite, especially in Assiah.

"It pains me," said the Forsaken to the royals of Zweite who harbored elemental powers as well as hints of darkness in their blood. It was too faint, and only an entity such as the forsaken could sense it.

"It pains me to see how incapable you all are of taking care of your own continent," he said. "Zweite was once a prosperous haven abundant of resources. A magical reservoir."

The queen of Atziluth stepped up.
