In a world shaped by trials and ancient mysteries, a young man named Leo awakens in a remote village with no memory of his past-only a deep scar on his collarbone, shaped like a five-pointed star. As a skilled blacksmith, he leads a quiet life until he and an outcast girl, Luna, uncover a long-forgotten legend about the Silver Pentagram, a once-glorious adventurer's guild. Their journey takes them through perilous cities, into the depths of a colossal mechanical tree, and against the will of those who wish to keep the past buried. When Leo encounters a masked thief named Dan, fragments of truth begin to surface-revealing that Leo might not just be seeking the Silver Pentagram, but reclaiming a history that was stolen from him. With powerful artifacts, sentient machines, and a looming war between light and darkness, The Ten Gates is a thrilling tale of lost identity, the battle between fate and free will, and the acceptance of both humanity's brilliance and its deepest flaws. As Leo and Luna venture toward the stormy shores of the Shattered Wind Sea, they must face not only their enemies but also the echoes of a forgotten past that could change the world forever. Will Leo reclaim his memories before the darkness overtakes him? Or will he become the very thing he once sought to destroy?

[AVISO: CONTEÚDO ADULTO] - [HISTÓRIA PRINCIPAL COMPLETA] Izabelle subestimou o fogo com que achava que ia brincar esta noite. Mas como ela poderia ter previsto que o homem com quem ela se deparou não brinca apenas com um pequeno fogo, mas sim com um inferno inteiro? ___ Excerto: "Passar por esse casamento comigo pode ser como você cavando seu próprio túmulo. Porque no momento em que você começar a querer mais de mim, eu vou me divorciar de você. E no momento em que você quebrar sua promessa e tentar me enfrentar... Eu vou arruinar você e te despedaçar completamente. Impiedosamente. Você vai se arrepender de ter conhecido este diabo esta noite." A ameaça dele foi dada na mesma voz suave, mas fria. Mas Elle não se abalou. Seu olhar também não vacilou. Este homem era implacável, e ela sabia disso claramente. Seus olhos naquele momento prometiam pesadelos e escuridão sem qualquer promessa de alívio. Mas, não importa o que ele diga agora, isso não mudará sua decisão. Ela realmente não tinha outra escolha. "Eu entendo agora..." ela disse calmamente, se fortalecendo. "Já que você não confia que eu manterei minha palavra, que tal fazermos isso? Você prepara os documentos do divórcio antecipadamente agora e eu assino. Dessa forma, quando você decidir se divorciar de mim no futuro, os papéis já terão sido assinados e não haverá como eu te incomodar a respeito. Você só precisará enviá-los aos advogados e tê-los notarizados." Um pesado silêncio reinou antes da sua risada incrédula e silenciosa quebrar o silêncio. "Estou sem palavras, Princesa Izabelle." Ele parecia perversamente divertido. Mas então ele começou a concordar com a aprovação. "Tudo bem, princesa. Eu vou me casar com você." ___ Conta no Instagram: kazzenlx.x página no facebook: author_kazzenlx servidor no Discord: https://discord.gg/UGTA3A4 A capa é minha, então não a use.
