Abyssal Awakening

Having spent her childhood confined in chains, Alice was a child who knew neither love nor joy. Scorned by her family while being tortured in the name of the greater good for years, she grew numb to all feeling and thought. That is, until one day, a man in black offered her a chance to escape. There were once rumours widespread of an endless hell, a land of glorious death and dreadful opportunity. Fools went in search of it, and the clever never ventured into it. Only when its baleful mysteries spilled unto the earth did all hear its name — the Abyss. A single drop of its blood could give someone the power to control shadows, move faster than sound, or strength greater than the strongest man. Yet, it all came at a cost; the blood would always make sure those who consumed it became part of the Abyss, with one exception — Alice. Cast away by her own blood, it was her destiny to rot in a gilded cage. But, that fateful day changed everything. Gifted a second chance at life, a chance to turn her life around and claim vengeance against her family, a chance to dive deep into the Abyss and gain the power to govern her own fate, Alice took his hand, unaware of the destiny unfolding before her. Discord: https://discord.gg/vrdTSkj8Va Author Notes: This is my third book, going to take what I learned from before to improve. This book will be focusing on plot, action, depths of character bonds and overall a darker tone/take on this cruel fantasy world I've cooked up for this book! If you give this book a try, I hope you enjoy! A very different experience and tone to Nanomancer Reborn.

Nyer's Lesson

With Alice's sword held between Nyer's fingers, Alice didn't hesitate to change her sword's form and retreat.

Seeing the blade change forms, Nyer couldn't help but be surprised by its properties but this was no time to be impressed.

Taking a step forward, Nyer's cloak billowed behind him as Sigils appeared across his body. Holding his hand in front of him, a greatsword manifested itself as he entered a standard stance.

"If Lua can ignore all forms of defence and Kaden can mimic all forms of casting, what do you think I can do?" Nyer asked with a grin.

Furrowing her brows, Alice considered the options for a moment.

'He doesn't seem to be the defensive type… Is he a caster? Doesn't seem like it either.'

"Think carefully. The three of us are chosen as the last line of defence for her Majesty." Nyer grinned as the aura around him continued to increase.

Closing her eyes, Alice thought of one possibility and cold sweat dripped down her back.
