AK - The Alchemy Kingdom

Karl always wanted to be a Mage. He was born in the Serion Kingdom, a fully pledged magic Kingdom. Seems like a perfect match, right? Unfortunately, no. He's just a commoner, working endlessly to maintaining the lifestyle of Mages. On his 15th birthday, his last chance to escape from a miserable life was destroyed when he was deemed to have no magic potential. For thousands of Serion's citizens that would be the end of their dreams. But how could this story be any fun, ending like that? Follow Karl and his friends while they tried to fight against the Kingdom's oppression. Will the system bend them to submission or will they break the chains of destiny? Spoiler alert: After thousands of years, an ancient Magic system will be reborn in the small Caiset village. What should you expect? - Kingdom Building: For sure! The heavy lifting will come later, I promise! Foundation is important, please be patient; - Epic battles: A Kingdom is not built without war and conflict. Who doesn't like good fights? Let's bring some excitement to this novel!; - Multiple leading characters: Karl convinced them to get on the bus, but this is a very long trip and everyone will need to drive a little; - Scientific Magic System: Especially Alchemy! I'm in no way trying to take the fantasy out of Magic. I just feel like trying to do something more logical; - World Building: I’m using some basic concepts from traditional Fantasy Worlds and trying to add some nice touches to make it unique; - Fun?: I'll try to insert some humor into the story, but that’s an experience we will go through together. Check out my spin-off novels, Merchant Queen and Harbinger of Death. Both are independent but share the same world and can give additional info on worldbuilding and hidden plots. Don't forget to check the comments section for images (Magic tools, Inventory, ...)

Chapter 193 – The shade I

Year 5, Winter, First Month, Third Week

On the third week of winter, snow fell all over the Serion Kingdom painting in white cities, villages, houses, and castles alike. Well, everywhere except for the south, in the fire region. The land touched by the everlasting fire spell would never know cold or ice. Throughout all the extension of the flaming dominion, the fire energies burned bright, enhancing the sun’s blessing by the day and leaving the warmth of the earth by night.

Close to the eastern fire border, on the city known for never sleeping, a shadow blinked between the illuminated streets and the dark cover of scorched stone buildings. It crossed the low city market and the slums, before entering a rundown shack.

Sometime later, the shadow traveled again and stopped at a dirty shelter filled with sleeping orphans in the poorest part of the slums.
