Aether X Neuvillette

Zone X

After the Global Reconstruction Decree, the kingdom of Hoperito ceased to be a land of freedom and compassion. Authority was seized by Yarrie, a prince believed to be cursed, who rose to power through the murder of his parents and a trail of blood and fire. Under his rule, the kingdom was transformed into a militarised fortress, divided into specialised sectors. Zone Z became a haven for the aristocracy. Zone A was assigned to the army and human experimentation. Zone Y was left for the common folk. And Zone X was turned into a dumping ground for failed experiments, mutated beings, prisoners, and the unwanted dregs of society. While the ruling class luxuriated behind steel fortresses, the children of Zone Y were relentlessly hunted, captured, and turned into tools of war. Among the few who survived, Paul witnessed his younger sister being taken during a brutal military raid. During a later pursuit, he managed to escape but found himself lost inside the infamous Zone X. There, to his shock, Paul was reunited with Emily, the sister he had presumed dead. She was no longer the frightened child he remembered, but a warrior shaped by pain and survival. Alongside other survivors in Zone X, they began to uncover hidden truths about Yarrie’s regime, ancient curses that had shaped the royal bloodline, and the dark experiments that created monsters in human skin. In the shadows of abandonment, a quiet rebellion began to stir. The story follows Paul, Emily, and an unlikely band of mutated rebels as they decide not only to endure, but to rise. Their quest to bring down Yarrie’s tyrannical rule leads them deeper into the heart of darkness, where the line between hero and monster begins to blur. As they fight to reclaim their future, they must also confront the question that haunts them all. Can freedom be won without losing who they are?

Aetheric Design

In the crumbling, magic-forsaken empire of Veridia, where ancient cathedrals stand as skeletal monuments to a forgotten age, a clandestine war brews beneath the surface. Magic, once the lifeblood of the land, is now a forbidden whisper, hunted down by the zealous Inquisition. Yet, in the shadowed alleys and forgotten crypts, secret cults dedicated to the old ways thrive, their illicit rituals a desperate plea for power in a world stripped bare. Our protagonist, a young and resourceful smuggler, navigates this treacherous landscape, his survival dependent on his wits and his ability to slip through the cracks of imperial law. Drawn into the dangerous currents of Veridia's hidden magical underworld, he finds himself ensnared in a confrontation far grander and more perilous than any he has faced before. One fateful midnight, within the hallowed, decaying walls of a crumbling cathedral, he comes face-to-face with a high priestess of a forbidden cult. This encounter is not merely a clash of wills, but a collision of ideologies, a spark that threatens to ignite the smoldering embers of rebellion and expose the empire's deepest, darkest secrets. As the ancient stones bear witness, the smuggler must choose between self-preservation and a desperate gamble for a world yearning for the return of its lost magic. Key Themes: Forbidden Magic vs. Oppressive Authority Decay and Rebirth Survival and Rebellion The Allure and Danger of Power Moral Ambiguity Target Audience: Readers who enjoy atmospheric dark fantasy, gothic settings, and stories with complex moral dilemmas and high stakes.
