The Crimson Relic

Eryx Thorne, an orphaned blacksmith’s apprentice, never imagined his life would go beyond the small village of Verath. But when a mysterious relic—the Crimson Stone—chooses him as its bearer, Eryx is thrust into a world of ancient powers, warring kingdoms, and mythical creatures. The relic grants him untold strength, but it comes at a price: it binds him to a forgotten prophecy, one that foretells the rise of a hero who will unite the realms or plunge them into eternal darkness. On his journey, Eryx attracts the attention of powerful women—each with her own motives and desires. From a skilled warrior princess seeking to reclaim her throne, to a seductive sorceress with secrets of her own, to a fierce rebel leader who sees Eryx as the key to victory—he must balance the growing affection of those drawn to him while navigating the dangers of a world on the brink of chaos. With the fate of the realms resting on his shoulders, Eryx’s goal is to master the power of the Crimson Relic, uncover its true origins, and decide whether to embrace his destiny or forge his own path. But as enemies close in and alliances shift, he realizes that saving the world may require more than just strength—it may cost him his heart.
