Cobblestone Starbound

In the city of Cindrelle, magic is everything. It flows through the cobblestones, whispers in the wind, and grants power to those who are chosen. For most, the Spark is a birthright, a gift that shapes their destiny. But for Caelum Wrenwick, the Spark never came. Born without it, he is condemned to a life on the edge of society, shunned by those who can wield magic and haunted by the looming threat of the Veil. The Veil is the city’s greatest secret, a misty prison for those who fail to manifest their Spark. It is a place of exile—a one-way passage where people vanish, never to return. To Caelum, it has always been a symbol of failure, a dark fate that awaits him when he turns seventeen and still has no magic to call his own. But when a strange pull leads him to a forgotten, decaying district, he discovers a door long-hidden—and with it, a power that will change everything. Inside, Caelum unlocks a force far older and far more dangerous than he ever imagined: a chaotic, raw magic that ties him to something darker than his world has ever known. The Veil is not a prison, but a door—and through it lies a truth that could destroy or save them all. But the price of understanding the Veil is steep. It will change him, shape him into something new—and perhaps something unrecognizable. As the city trembles on the brink of disaster, Caelum must decide if he will embrace his newfound power or risk losing himself to the storm that rages within the Veil. To save Cindrelle, he must confront the very heart of its magic—and the dark secrets that have been buried for centuries. In a world where the lines between light and shadow blur, where power can both save and destroy, Caelum’s journey will challenge everything he thought he knew about himself, his city, and the very nature of magic. The Veil is waiting.

In the heart of Vienna, where the echoes of classical melodies danced through the air, lived a modern musician named Benjamin O'Connor. Benjamin was a prodigious talent in the contemporary music scene, seamlessly blending electronic beats with soulful melodies. Little did he know that his life was about to take an extraordinary turn. One evening, as Benjamin prepared for a groundbreaking performance in the vibrant city, a mysterious force enveloped him.

Yet, through the challenges, he found unexpected allies among the musicians and patrons who recognized the magic in his music. Little did Benjamin know that his journey through time would not only leave an indelible mark on the pages of history but also reshape his own understanding of music and humanity. In the crucible of the past, a modern musician discovered that the language of melody could transcend the boundaries of time, connecting hearts across centuries.

Whispers echoed through the cobblestone corridors and darkened chambers of the palace, painting a macabre portrait of a heartless sovereign scarred by the cruelty of fate.

A monster king and an evil queen united to become one, their journey unfurling like a forbidden scroll. The world watched with bated breath as the saga unfolded — a tale of love, betrayal, and the relentless pursuit of a destiny that defied the predetermined life. Cover by Java graphics.

"Bring out your dead! Bring out your dead!" the man called out as he pulled his hand drawn cart through the center of the cobblestone road. Several passersby hurried alongside him, pressing their bodies up against the buildings that bordered the street to stay as far from the man and his cart as possible. Heads down, legs walking briskly, they dared not speak to him or meet his eyes. This man was a Corpse Hunter, the one who came for your friends, the one who came for your loved ones, and in time the one who came for you. He knew when that time would come, often arriving even before your family had become aware of your departure from the land of the living. But his Fate was not death itself, only that which followed closely behind it. The deafening silence that came after a dying man's last breath, the biting chill that entered a woman's body when her heart stopped beating, the palatable dread that filled the souls of those who set eyes upon their deceased kin. This was the Fate of a Corpse Hunter, this was their existence, this was the world of the man who pulled the cart. While the others could shun him they could not deny what he truly was, an end to all that which had a beginning.
