Sinner of the Spades

'Sinner of the Spades' takes place in an alternate early 20th century, at the turn of industrial advancement. Set in a world where one Empire rules over the majority of the western continent, the world is ravaged by the aftereffects of a great war. It is a world of tragedy, of longing for wealth, of parading high above the clouds, of mechanical automatons, and of grand tales of sorcery not many have had the chance to see themselves. Lumière Croft is a show magician in the middle borough of the city-state of Leiden- rather, an illusionist. A career liar. Responsible for making money to help out at the monastery he lives in, he can only curse the dreadful circumstances around him, and wish desperately that something would change. Although, that change is not always a good thing. Only when the shadows around him begin to creep, and when the sky grows burgeoning eyes, and when blood is spilled, does he find hope of fulfilling his wishes. To have sunlight, the world must be balanced with cruelty. To have power, one must lose their soul, humanity, morality, or sanity. One must ultimately balance the scales of their debt, or fall eternally to suffering, and have the scales corrected by force. This is the story of balance, of hope, and of the tragedy of a liar. —- “We’re all liars who pretend that the world is okay, and as liars we adopt philosophies and ideologies to cope with its cruelty. Because the world has hope, as long as we speak these lies loud enough, they’ll surely become true.” - Lumière Croft. --- Cover illustration done by @i_evuuu/Everest

"THE DIAMONDS"

THE DIÃMÔNDS Prologue: By: Faith Lucky. The diamonds? Who are the Diamonds? And where do you belong? The White diamonds? Or the Black Diamonds? Okay...a little introduction. The diamonds are a unique set of people in the country discovered to have special powers. Once their powers are discovered, they're taken to the special school - THE DIAMONDS INSTITUTE - where they're being taught to control and make use of their powers. Its a school attended by people from all over the world -as long as they posses special abilities, of course - and it becomes like their new home because they get to live there and survive. Its a school filled with spoilt brats who can do the unthinkable, but Its been signed by the government that anyone discovered with special abilities must be taken to the Diamonds Institute. So, its inevitable. Meet Cali Jenner. A young pretty, but stubborn girl who's always wanted to explore the world and have fun. But what happens when she wakes up one morning and discovers she has special abilities? What happens when she's forced to go to the Diamond's institute even tho she hated it since it'd restrict her life? She finds it annoying coping with her new world because the school's filled with spoilt brats who cared less She's so angry at it and vowed to leave. But what happens when she meets the most handsome boy she's ever met? Meet Miquel Yeah...just Miquel. You don't need to know his surname for now. He's the most powerful in the Diamond's Institute and as a result, he was made president over the rest of the students. He's the most charming, handsome and coolest guy in the institute. Just a stare from him can melt you to liquid and yeah - He's an introvert. He hardly speaks - even during training, his 'special guards' do the talking. He only watches but never speaks. You hardly see him around as he's always in his room and only comes out during training and rare occasions. There in the institute, he's considered a god. He's the most powerful yet, no background. I mean, nobody knows a thing about him and why he's always so quiet. Yeah - he's quiet. But never mess with him because he kills within the blink of an eye. He's calm, yet violent. Just a slight anger, he bleeds from his eyes and nostrils and anyone around him at that moment is likely to die. What happens when stubborn Cali meets the god-like Miquel and picks interest in him? He seemed to be the only one to really interest in her in the school, but unfortunately, he's weird and wouldn't associate with anyone. Many at times, at night, she'd take the risk of climbing up to his window just to watch him sleep. And as she did, she felt it - there was something mysterious about him. The most powerful, handsome, charming, yet cold and quiet. Cali's warned to stay away from him but she turned deaf ears and finally, she fell into his trap... * * Who's ready for a sweet round of romance, suspense and mystery? This is one of my best stories and trust me - you wouldn't wanna miss it. Brought to you by Faith Lucky
