In the end, Jacob chose it anyway with no way of going back, and it was also the start of his suffering and his icky, brutal journey toward the 'Immortality' he wanted so badly! ______ Discord Server:https://discord.gg/nqxrSDbA

Having spent her childhood confined in chains, Alice was a child who knew neither love nor joy. Scorned by her family while being tortured in the name of the greater good for years, she grew numb to all feeling and thought. That is, until one day, a man in black offered her a chance to escape. There were once rumours widespread of an endless hell, a land of glorious death and dreadful opportunity. Fools went in search of it, and the clever never ventured into it. Only when its baleful mysteries spilled unto the earth did all hear its name — the Abyss. A single drop of its blood could give someone the power to control shadows, move faster than sound, or strength greater than the strongest man. Yet, it all came at a cost; the blood would always make sure those who consumed it became part of the Abyss, with one exception — Alice. Cast away by her own blood, it was her destiny to rot in a gilded cage. But, that fateful day changed everything. Gifted a second chance at life, a chance to turn her life around and claim vengeance against her family, a chance to dive deep into the Abyss and gain the power to govern her own fate, Alice took his hand, unaware of the destiny unfolding before her.

This book will be focusing on plot, action, depths of character bonds and overall a darker tone/take on this cruel fantasy world I've cooked up for this book! If you give this book a try, I hope you enjoy! A very different experience and tone to Nanomancer Reborn.

Alaric led a simple, peaceful life, soaked in his mother's affection and his father's supervision. But it all falls apart when he finds out the gruesome reality—that his father is not the man he had envisioned, but a miserable pretender who has taken the place of the true man, a murderer who is willing to sacrifice his own kith and kin at the altar of ambition. Having no alternative but to sit and witness as his mother fights desperately with the man who wore his father's face, Alaric cannot do anything other than run, powerless to stem the tragedy in progress before his very eyes. Having only his mother's dying words in mind, he takes an oath of vengeance. Now, Alaric sets out to find the truth, become stronger, and reclaim what was taken away from him. But vengeance is a perilous path, and the foes that he will have to face are greater than he ever thought of. Will his sorrow redeem him, or will he be driven mad by the very same darkness that he wants to destroy?
