The Shadowbound Chronicles

### **Synopsis: The Shadowbound Chronicles** In the quiet village of Eldermoor, seventeen-year-old Kael Ardyn yearns for adventure beyond the mundane life of farming and village chores. His wish is granted in an unexpected and perilous way when he is drawn into the mysterious Whispering Woods by a haunting melody. There, he encounters a shadowy figure who reveals that Kael has been chosen by the enigmatic force known as the Shadowbound to wield the power of darkness and prevent an ancient evil from destroying the world. Tasked with finding the legendary Shards of Lumina—three powerful artifacts capable of sealing away the malevolent Void King—Kael embarks on a journey across treacherous landscapes and through deadly trials. Along the way, he discovers his latent ability to manipulate shadows, using them as both weapon and shield. As Kael grows stronger, he learns that the shards are hidden in dangerous locations guarded by fearsome creatures: the Ruins of Solara, the Abyssal Caverns, and the Skyward Spire. Kael’s quest brings him allies, including Lira, a cunning rogue with her own secrets, and pits him against formidable foes such as Malrik, a corrupted knight commanding an army of shadow-wielding soldiers. Each shard comes at great personal cost, testing Kael’s courage, resolve, and morality. With every victory, Kael inches closer to confronting the Void King, whose return threatens to plunge the world into eternal darkness. The final battle atop the Skyward Spire pushes Kael to his limits. Harnessing the combined might of the shards, he unleashes a blinding surge of light to banish the Void King back beyond the Veil. However, the shards are consumed in the process, leaving Kael drained but victorious. Though the immediate threat is vanquished, Kael knows the world remains fragile—and that his journey as the Shadowbound may only be beginning. A tale of self-discovery, sacrifice, and the enduring struggle between light and darkness, *The Shadowbound Chronicles* follows Kael’s transformation from an ordinary farm boy into a reluctant hero destined to shape the fate of the world.

The Forgotten Light

Fragments of Eternity When memories are the key, but each shard brings pain. In a fractured world where ancient magic collides with futuristic technology, memories are more than echoes of the past—they are weapons, currency, and the fabric of reality itself. Society is divided between the Memory Keepers, who wield the power to preserve and manipulate memories, and the Shattered, victims of a mysterious plague that fragments minds and unleashes uncontrollable abilities. Kael Ardyn, a Memory Keeper haunted by his own amnesia, wields a relic blade that can absorb fragments of memories from those he defeats. When he crosses paths with Lyra Veyne, a Shattered with rare and volatile powers, their fates become intertwined. A fragment of Lyra’s memory reveals a haunting connection between them—and a glimpse of the growing Void, an enigmatic force that consumes memories and threatens to erase all existence. Pursued by Zarek Kaelthorne, a tyrannical ruler who weaponizes forbidden memory extraction, and guided by the cryptic warnings of an enigmatic figure known only as the Weaver, Kael and Lyra embark on a perilous journey. Together, they uncover the dark truths of their pasts, the origins of the Void, and their roles in its creation. As the Void spreads, devouring entire regions, Kael and Lyra must piece together their fragmented memories, even as the truth threatens to destroy them. But the price of stopping the Void is steep, and the line between salvation and annihilation blurs with every step. In this tale of power, betrayal, and the haunting weight of remembrance, Fragments of Eternity explores whether the past is worth reclaiming—and what it means to truly remember.

Veilshard Nexus: Chronicles of the Multiform Divergence

Dr. Elaine Kastor, a brilliant yet reclusive theoretical physicist, never imagined her life’s work would end her life. In a catastrophic experiment that defied explanation, Elaine’s death marked the beginning of a far stranger story. Awakening in a fragmented multiverse held together by the mysterious Veilshard Nexus—an ancient, sentient system governing countless realms—Elaine finds herself bound to a new existence, both gifted and cursed. Inhabiting a foreign body with inexplicable abilities, Elaine discovers she is now reliant on the Nexus to survive. This vast, enigmatic network assigns her cryptic “Divergence Mandates”—missions that tether her to the Nexus’s fractured worlds, each brimming with political intrigue, arcane constructs, and alien logic. Her first destination, Liradelle, is a medieval realm where magic and ambition clash, yet hidden beneath its complexity lie whispers of a far-reaching conspiracy connected to the Nexus itself. But Elaine isn’t the only one entangled in the Nexus’s chaotic threads. Rivan, a reserved wanderer with an unexplainable bond to the fractures, and Ardyn, a fierce warrior caught between loyalty and survival, are also players in this cosmic game. Together, their paths converge, revealing threads of betrayal woven by the Nexus’s creators—the Custodians—who shattered their own creation in a misguided bid for control. As Elaine grapples with the rules of her rebirth, she discovers the fractures are alive, their chaotic energy holding memories, purpose, and hidden dangers. To unravel the truth of her resurrection, she must master not only the Nexus’s arcane class systems and magical sciences but also the unstable mechanics of the Multiform Divergence, an ultimate skill that bridges fractured realities and alters the laws of existence itself. However, the Nexus is no benevolent guide. Its secrets are veiled in riddles, and its stability depends on sacrifices that demand more than strength or intellect. Elaine’s memories grow increasingly unreliable, leaving her to question whether she is a pawn in the Nexus’s game—or a catalyst for its unraveling. In this sprawling journey of survival, power, and identity, every step through the fractures leads Elaine, Rivan, and Ardyn closer to a singular truth: the Nexus doesn’t simply connect worlds—it redefines the meaning of existence. But at what cost? Combining intricate worldbuilding, relentless intrigue, and high-concept fantasy, Veilshard Nexus immerses readers in a multiverse alive with questions of purpose, identity, and the fragile balance between chaos and control.

The Nexus Requiem

In a multiverse teetering on the brink of collapse, Kael Ardyn, a young wanderer, stumbles upon a shard of unimaginable power—a fragment of the Prime Echo, the heart of the Nexus that once bound countless realms in harmony. The shard grants him access to the chaotic energies of Resonance, but its power comes with a heavy price: every use brings him closer to unraveling what little balance remains. Pursued by factions with conflicting goals—the zealous Spiral Choir, the enigmatic Reverie Collective, and the ruthless Silent Path—Kael is thrust into a high-stakes conflict. Each faction seeks control of the shards, claiming they alone can restore the Nexus or reshape it to their will. As Kael struggles to master the shard’s volatile power, he encounters Aeris Saelin, a wandering bard with a sharp tongue and a veiled past, whose knowledge of Resonance may hold the key to his survival. Together, they navigate treacherous realms, uncover ancient Stabilizers that once sustained the Nexus, and face the shadowy remnants of the Prime Echo itself—fragments that speak cryptic truths about the Nexus’s fate. But Kael soon realizes the greatest threat may not lie in the factions hunting him or the monstrous Resonance beasts stalking the realms. Instead, it may be within himself: the shard’s voice grows louder with every battle, its will increasingly at odds with his own. As the Nexus deteriorates further, Kael is forced to confront impossible choices. Will he sacrifice everything to restore balance, even if it means destroying himself—or will he succumb to the shard’s power and risk plunging the multiverse into irreversible chaos? The Nexus Requiem blends high-concept fantasy, multiversal intrigue, and layered character drama into an epic tale of survival, betrayal, and self-discovery. With every decision, Kael’s journey reveals not only the truth behind

In a world where noble houses guard the kingdom of Aetheria from the relentless threats beyond its borders, Kael Ardyn, the youngest son of the powerful House Ardyn, finds himself reborn into a life far different from his previous one as a cold-blooded assassin. Emotionless, calculating, and bound by duty, Kael must navigate the deadly politics and rigorous challenges of Aetheria’s prestigious academy, where both noble and commoner children are trained to wield magic and steel. With a natural affinity for shadow magic, Kael quickly rises in the academy ranks, his every action driven by precision and survival instincts honed over lifetimes of living in the dark. But Kael’s path is not one he walks alone. His closest rival and most unexpected ally, Seraphina Valewyn, heir to the frost-wielding House Valewyn, mirrors his emotionless existence. Together, they form an unlikely yet powerful alliance, united by their shared detachment from the world and a growing, unspoken understanding of each other. As Kael and Seraphina train, fight, and master their powers within the academy, they encounter enemies and allies alike—each with their own ambitions and secrets. But beyond the academy walls, a looming threat to the kingdom stirs, one that will test the strength, loyalty, and unity of all who wish to protect Aetheria. In a place where every relationship is a game of power and every trial a life-or-death struggle, Kael must decide who he can trust and how far he will go to achieve his goals. With shadows as his weapon and an icy companion by his side, Kael’s journey through the academy will not only shape him into a master of magic and combat but also forge him into the ruler of the shadows, a force capable of changing the fate of Aetheria itself. Yet even in this world of ice and shadow, where power is everything, Kael begins to realize that survival alone may not be enough. For somewhere deep beneath the surface of his emotionless heart, something stirs—something dangerous, something that could either lead him to greatness or destroy everything he has built.

Horner Paranormal

Solving mysteries and fighting monsters. Protecting people, magic and mundie alike. That's the job of the Horner PIs, a group that fights and helps the hidden paranormal - and are a little paranormal themselves. *** Danny Rye has been able to see and talk to ghosts for as long as he can remember, but for most of his life, it was more of a curse than a blessing. Margot Queensbury has strange psychic powers, and while they do come in handy, she prefers to rely on her karate skills. Jake Tassel-Chastain is a genius at combining modern technology with magic and the paranormal - he's also bound to a mysterious dark power that he really doesn't like talking about. In the sleepy town of Wolfden, Montanta, the Horners pick up a fourth member: Camila Castillo, a bonafide and powerful witch. Together, they travel the country in Margot's old van, helping whoever (and whatever) they can, solving mysteries, keeping secrets, and finding a family amongst each other. But of course, things are brewing in the paranormal world, plots and schemes from powerful people, and our ragtag twenty-somethings will undoubtedly get wrapped up in it all. Follow the Horner PIs as they go up against mages and demons, werewolves and vampires, fairies, ghosts, and plain old humans, all while doing their best to stick together and unravel their own pasts. *** This is the first "book" (novella, really) of my Horner Paranormal series, which was inspired by media like Supernatural, Paranorman, Coraline, Practical Magic, X-Files, and Ghostbusters. For future installments and other fun stuff, check out my Patreon! THIS STORY IS OR WILL BE PUBLISHED ON: Patreon, Tumblr, Wattpad, Tapas, Webnovel, Royal Road, Fiction Press, and Inkitt.
