Blood For Magic

Orion's life, marred by relentless tragedy, takes a dark turn with his grandfather's final message, unveiling the existence of an Ancient Organization and entrusting him with a foreboding task. With only a tattered map fragment and the burden of his family's shadowed legacy, Orion plunges into a world where malevolent magic holds it's sway over all and ancient terrors lurk within every corner. In this treacherous landscape where the lines between good and evil blur, even the gods play their hand, their motives as inscrutable as they are terrifying. Where will the sinister map drag him? What malevolent secrets make the gods so untrustworthy? And why was he fated to bear this harrowing burden? Only time will unveil the dread truths. As Orion delves deeper into the nightmare, he faces a destiny steeped in shadows, where survival means defying fate itself. For in a world where gods are either all-powerful or all-good, one thing is certain: they cannot be both.

Chaotic morning

Orion had never been prone to paranoia, but caution had become his constant companion ever since he left the protective embrace of the Crypt. The days of peaceful slumber were long gone, replaced by a state of perpetual alertness. Now, as a fugitive in enemy lands, labeled a criminal, vigilance was his only safeguard against the lurking dangers.

On this early morning, Orion's eyes snapped open, their sharpness betraying no trace of sleepiness. His senses, finely attuned through countless trials, detected a flurry of mana signatures encroaching upon his sanctuary. Multiple mages were converging on the inn where he had sought refuge. At first, he entertained the notion of a routine inspection, but as their presence grew closer, the truth crystallized—their intent was unmistakably hostile.
