No chapters releasing for 2 or so weeks, have exams, sorry. ___________________________________________________________________ In the grim and unforgiving realm of Alikal, where darkness cloaks the land and violence taints every corner, the destinies of two people intertwine, and the very balance of the world teeters on a knife's edge because of them. Lavaad, once a noble but now a forsaken soul dwelling in the slums. His heart burns with an unquenchable thirst for vengeance, a quest to settle the score with the very family that abandoned him to his fate. However Lavaad wields a rare and powerful magic that can be a double-edged sword that could make him a formidable force or a mere casualty in the brutal world he navigates. Poho, a slave who dares to dream of a world where the chains of oppression are shattered for all. However, Poho carries a heavy burden – an encroaching insanity that gnaws at his very soul. Within him, a relentless, evil entity vies for control of his body and threatens to consume him from within. These two seemingly ordinary individuals, hailing from humble beginnings, hold the destiny of the entire world within their grasp. As they each strive to achieve their lofty goals, they are destined to clash, cooperate, and ultimately shape the fate of Alikal. Their journeys will be fraught with peril, as they must navigate treacherous landscapes, confront formidable foes, and grapple with the ever-present darkness that permeates their world. ___________________________________________________________________ Few things of note I'd like to mention, this is my first time stepping into the world of writing, I have spent years worldbuilding a multitude of worlds, namely this one and while I am confident in my worldbuilding I can't guarantee a perfect story, however I will continue to improve as I go, so if you prefer worldbuilding orientated stories please stick with me.Chapters at least once a week, sometimes more, I'm in my last year of school and just doing this as a hobby.
