Midnight Rain

The war for freedom is far from over. But this time, the enemy isn’t just the government—it’s the ghosts of the past. After escaping Arkadia-7, Myst is left with nothing but fragmented memories and a name that no longer feels like her own. The government may have lost their prized experiment, Blue Rose, but the damage has already been done. Struggling to recover from the mind control that nearly erased her humanity, Myst finds herself caught between the Clan’s growing resistance and the haunting truth of who—or what—she was created to be. But she isn’t the only one changed by the war. As the Clan prepares to strike back against the government’s growing influence, an unsettling presence begins to rise from the shadows. A weapon perfected through pain. The government has never been one to waste a valuable experiment. And some projects never truly end.

Saïna n’a jamais pu faire qu’un seul choix, celui de fuir. Elle n’a pas choisi de naître à Egara, ni le feu comme don et encore moins son regard couleur de sang. Il en va de même pour les voix qui depuis toujours résonnent dans son esprit. Devenir chasseuse non plus n’a pas été un choix, seulement un moyen de fuir son village et le harcèlement collectif qu’elle y vivait. C’est dans une autre fuite qu’elle a pu choisir pour la première fois. Un voyage unique pour Catarphone, le joyau du nord de l’Incendie, cité réputée pour son peuple insoumis, ses sempiternelles querelles et son académie, où l’avenir du royaume est formé. C’est là-bas qu’elle rencontrera son destin, et qu’importe lequel du moment qu’il la tient loin des montagnes qui l’ont vue naître.

It was the season of rain when I first heard those melodies. Under the drenching sky, I was counting the sorrows of my life, While someone else was embracing each moment of theirs with the falling raindrops. And then, that voice... Soft, yet reaching straight to the heart- "Live, for life is but one-stay happy and spread it around. We are companions in this journey till death... Just give me your hand..." There was something magical in those words. It felt as if the rain had touched my sorrows, As if someone had called my name, As if an unseen hand was pulling me out of the darkness..

The moonlight spilled through the canopy of the dark forest, casting an eerie glow on the man lounging against an ancient tree. Morris was impossibly handsome—too handsome to be real. His sharp jawline, framed by tousled black hair, was shadowed by the flicker of firelight in his golden eyes. He swirled a goblet of wine lazily in his hand, his lips curved into a devilish smirk. Elowen froze, captivated. He looked like a prince from a forbidden story, but something in the air warned her he was no mortal. “Lost, little lamb?” His voice was velvet, dark and smooth, wrapping around her like a spell. “I was...just—” she stammered, but he stood in one fluid motion, closing the distance between them. “Just wandering into my domain,” he interrupted, his tone teasing yet dangerous. “How bold of you.” His gaze raked over her, and her heart pounded under the weight of his attention. “You shouldn’t be here,” he murmured, stepping closer until she could feel the heat radiating from him. “Do you know who I am?” She shook her head, her throat dry. “I am Morris,” he said, his voice dropping to a low, seductive growl. “The devil. The one your kingdom fears, the one your priests curse. And now,” he leaned in, his golden eyes glowing like embers, “you’ve wandered straight into my hands.” The shadows around him seemed to ripple with his amusement as a smirk played on his lips. He extended a hand, his voice both a command and an invitation. “Come closer, Elowen. Let me show you what happens when innocence meets the devil.”
