Synopsis
Author: Deadlox In the cursed realm of Emberfall, shadows breathe and magic burns like fire through the blood. Nineteen-year-old Kevin is marked—quite literally—with an ember-shaped scar that pulses with a power he never asked for. Branded as a threat and hunted by the mysterious Ardent Order, Kevin has lived most of his life in hiding, haunted by visions of a crumbling world and a voice calling him from beyond the Veil. When a cataclysm strikes the fractured continent, ancient relics awaken, and long-dead sorcerers whisper through the ash. Kevin is thrust into a whirlwind of rebellion, betrayal, and secrets buried deep beneath ruined cities. To uncover the truth behind his mark, he must ally with a rogue mage, a blade-dancer with a vendetta, and a talking crow who knows too much. But the Veil is thinning. And on the other side lies something older than gods… and far more dangerous. The Veil of Emberfall is an action-packed, mysterious epic about destiny, hidden magic, and the cost of wielding power in a world on the brink of unraveling.

Chapter 1 - Prologue: The Whisper Beneath the Ash.

The skies over Emberfall had not seen sunlight in thirteen years.

Dark clouds coiled like serpents across the heavens, and crimson lightning cracked the air as if the gods themselves were at war. Beneath this ever-storm, the ancient kingdom lay in ruin—its towers hollow, its forests twisted, and its people cursed to forget what peace felt like.

But in the deepest caverns of Mount Velkarin, something stirred.

A blade, long buried in obsidian and sealed with seven sigils, pulsed once.

Then again.

And again.
