The Black Swan At Burn Bridge

The world nearly suffered an apocalyptic end when four powerful entities clashed in a fierce conflict, nearly wiping out life. These entities were the embodiments of Four Primordial Forces, which act as anchors the entire universe as they know it. They were known as the Archangels, each of them mighty in their own right, ripe with the Primordial Lifeforce as well as their respected affinity. The War of The Four Monarchs, as the conflict was called, resulted in the world to enter a dystopian era, with Humanity and other supernatural races barely surviving the aftermath of the devastating events. While the planet was scarred physically, it showed no risks of truly ending, leaving the hope of longevity to allow the survivors to carry on. Fast forward nearly 200 years later, most of the world is rebuilt and the population of humanity is better than it was right after the War. But since the War, many supernatural aspects of the world became more prominent, giving opportunities for creatures of the night and other supernatural beings to rise up from the shadows and thrive. One of these supernatural beings is Mael, who is categorized as a "Black Sun", a powerful supernatural creature who was born during an eclipse. Many believe that Black Suns are vessels for one of the embodiments of the Primordial Forces; An Archangel. Mael spent most of his life on the run from a certain faction, learning how to wield a sword which he uses to harness his innate power. In the dystopian environment where most areas are eat or be eaten, he learned to survive and how to come out on top. He built a reputations as a dangerous wandering swordsman who won't hesitate to cut his enemies down. Eventually, he arrived at Nighthaven, a prominent city in Dystopian America.

The world moves forward, second by second. But for some, time listens. Michael has no past he’s willing to speak of, and no name etched in legacy. Yet deep within him stirs a power older than war and quieter than death—the ability to hold the world still while it spins in madness. Cast through a system that treats the broken like burdens. Where others dream of being chosen, he dreams of peace. But in a world ruled by power, silence is often mistaken for weakness—and monsters often wear smiles. As unrest stirs outside the orphanage walls and deeper truths about the nature of power begin to surface, Michael will have to choose: remain the quiet boy who watches from the margins, or become something more—something unspoken and unstoppable. He doesn’t want to be a hero. But time has a cruel sense of irony.

Synopsis Beneath the neon haze and rotting bones of a city choking on its own secrets, a myth hunts in the dark. She is called The Black Raven — part urban legend, part nightmare — feathers for shadows, talons for mercy. But behind the mask, she is Selene Arlen: a broken daughter, a night-shift morgue tech, a woman balancing grief, rage, and the fragile lies she tells to stay human. When her father was murdered by the hidden criminal empire called The Flock, Selene buried her name alongside him and stitched wings from vengeance and steel. By day, she scrubs blood from cold slabs and jokes with friends she cannot truly keep. By night, she glides across rooftops, carving corruption from the city’s veins — one predator at a time. But justice never comes clean. A sadistic serial killer — The Surgeon — slices the city open for his own twisted cure, forcing The Raven to step from the shadows and into a war she can’t fight alone. Her victories draw new monsters: the elusive King Crow, the mastermind of The Flock, who weaves traps that turn her own mask into bait. On her trail stalks Detective Ward, a weary cop who hates vigilantes as much as he hates what they reveal about a broken justice system he can’t fix. As Selene’s secrets bleed into her waking life, she risks losing the fragile pieces that keep her human — her loyal but nosy coworker Jess, her unraveling romance with Evan, and the only man who knows her true face: Micah Torres, the sarcastic tech ghost who arms her wings but cannot mend her wounds. Each hunt costs her more. Each rescue fails to heal the city’s rot. And as The Flock sharpens its claws in the dark, The Raven must choose — how many feathers must she shed before she’s just another monster with blood on her hands? --- The Black Raven: Book One is a brutal, neon-drenched vigilante thriller about grief, masks, and the thin line between savior and executioner — where the only thing sharper than her blades is the truth she fears will destroy her.

An impenetrable darkness, an unearthly silence reigned like a velvet cloak, gently suffocating all that breathed, trembled, or stirred within its grasp, like a psychopath predator.
