Eclipse Apostle

Iehodah_Tackey
Apostle of the Eclipse In a world ruled by gods, children are sometimes chosen at birth to become apostles — vessels of divine power meant to fight in the name of their gods. Those chosen bring pride to their families and protection to their kingdoms. Those who aren’t… simply live ordinary lives. He was ordinary. No divine symbol ever appeared on his skin. No temple bells rang for him. No priests came to his home. He was just another boy in a kingdom that valued strength above all else. But his little sister was chosen. A lesser god marked her as his apostle, and though the god was not powerful, the kingdom still celebrated her. She trained. She learned to fight. People looked at her with hope. Yet to her, he was never “ordinary.” She still laughed with him. Still dragged him outside to watch the sunrise. Still told him that even if she became strong, he would always be her big brother first. When demons invaded their land, the kingdom sent pleas for help. Other kingdoms had stronger apostles. Greater gods. But none answered. They chose not to involve themselves in a war that did not benefit them. The battlefield swallowed everything. His sister fought beyond her limits. The lesser god who had chosen her descended to aid her. Together, they stood against a demon apostle far stronger than either of them. And they lost. By the time he reached her, the sky was red with smoke and the city was falling apart. The god had vanished. His sister lay in the ruins, her power completely spent. He held her as the world around him crumbled. He did not shout at the heavens. He did not demand power. Through tears and ash, he whispered only one thing: “Please… someone save my people.” The prayer was not for himself. Not for revenge. Just for the kingdom that was disappearing before his eyes. For a long moment, nothing happened. Then the wind stopped. The fire quieted. And for the first time in a million years, the Twin Goddesses — Day and Night — descended. They had never chosen an apostle. They had only ever watched, intervening when gods lost control of their endless competition. But this time, they did more than watch. They chose the boy no one had chosen. Light and darkness intertwined, marking him with power no divine system had ever allowed before. When his eyes opened, they carried both dawn and dusk within them. The demon apostle fell. The war ended. But his sister did not return. Now bearing the blessing of both Night and Day, he does not remain in one kingdom. He wanders. He protects lands others ignore. He steps into battles the gods would rather turn into games. He does not fight to increase divine levels. He does not fight for worship. He fights because once, when the world burned, he asked for salvation instead of revenge. And the heavens finally answered.

Book 1 of Rebirth of the Technomage Saga: Earth’s Awakening

Stolen at birth and crushed beneath her step-family's cruelty, Raven awakens on her seventeenth birthday to memories spanning ninety-nine lifetimes—and this time, she plans to change everything. Once called Mara Brenner, a forgotten girl hidden in a servant's robes, she now remembers every betrayal, every death, every moment of suffering across nearly a century of lives. In each existence, she endured enslavement, loss, and the tragic death of her child. But death was never her ending—it was her education. Blessed with a rare tri-bloodline combining Dragon strength, Lín healing, and Zhào wisdom, Raven carries within her soul-space ten mystical Blood Essence Beads. Each bead holds the power to awaken a fragment of her divine body, rebuilding her from bone to spirit while granting mastery over lost technomagic arts: alchemy, artifact forging, runes, and the fusion of magic with cutting-edge science. Yet each awakening will test her mind, heart, and will to their very limits. Around her looms an empire ruled by the ruthless Eight Great Families, where noble bloodlines battle for supremacy in a brutal 100-Year Tournament. Hidden beneath them lurk the secret cultivation clans—ancient powers manipulating bloodlines and history itself. Her stepsister, Amara, pampered and poisonous, conspires to steal both her name and destiny, guided by a devourer seed that whispers corruption into willing ears. What Raven doesn't yet know will shake the foundations of reality: she is a Pillar Soul—one of the fundamental anchors holding Ascara's existence together. If she falls to darkness, the entire plane collapses into the void. To protect her world, she must locate and awaken the other Pillar Souls scattered across the world: a dying child, a broken soldier, a fallen saint, a betrayed lover, and others—each a fragment of Ascara's strength, each teetering on the edge of corruption. Time is running short. The Great Shift approaches in five years—when spiritual energy will surge back into a world that has forgotten magic. As technology begins to fail and ancient powers stir, Raven must navigate step-family betrayal, aristocratic oppression, and imperial conspiracies while a darker truth emerges: the Devourers, cosmic parasites born from primordial hunger, seek to twist her suffering into corruption and drag Ascara into eternal darkness. Standing between her and salvation are false allies and tragic enemies like Kael Xuán—heir to the ruling family and her betrayer across multiple lifetimes—while the shadowy SIS organization sacrifices innocents in the name of maintaining "order." Only one figure recognizes her true nature: the exiled Keeper of the Accord, an immortal guardian bound by cosmic law to protect Ascara's souls. In him, Raven may find not only a reluctant ally but an echo of her grandparents' forbidden love—proof that loyalty and sacrifice can triumph against the tide of ambition and despair. In a fractured empire where ancient cultivation lies broken, magic is dismissed as myth, and technology serves as the ultimate weapon, one forgotten girl will rise to reshape the fate of worlds. But first, she must survive becoming the most dangerous thing in existence: herself. ◊ ◊ ◊ Not suitable for readers under 18 or those sensitive to intense emotional/violent content.
