Bloodborne Fear The Old Blood

Apocalypse Perspective: Frozen Fear

As the ice caps of the North Pole melt under the relentless effects of climate change, an ancient and deadly virus is unleashed upon the world. This prehistoric pathogen wreaks havoc on humanity, infecting victims with symptoms of internal burning, cracked skin, and eventual brain death. But even in death, the infected remain mobile, with heightened senses of hearing and an insatiable predatory instinct. At first, the virus is confined to isolated, remote areas. However, global travel allows it to spread silently and mutate into a faster-acting strain. A single bite now transforms victims into ravenous, zombie-like creatures within seconds. The story follows the lives of diverse survivors scattered across the globe. Each grapples with the horrors of the outbreak and the collapse of their world. From a young child lost in the wilderness to a soldier torn between duty and family, from researchers racing to find a cure to mercenaries embarking on desperate missions, these perspectives weave together a tapestry of human resilience and desperation during an unprecedented apocalypse. Series 1: Frozen Fear Main Character: Elliot Carson, a 10-year-old boy from Alaska Synopsis: Elliot Carson is an ordinary ten-year-old living in a quiet Alaskan town surrounded by vast, snow-covered wilderness. His life takes a nightmarish turn when people in his town begin succumbing to a strange, deadly illness. Their bodies burn from the inside, their skin cracks like parched earth, and their eyes lose all trace of humanity. The infected become mindless predators, hunting anything that makes a sound. Elliot’s parents are among the first to fall victim to the virus, leaving him alone with his only companion, Max, the family’s loyal dog. With the town overrun, Elliot flees into the unforgiving wilderness, clutching only the survival skills his father had taught him. He must navigate a world transformed by danger, where the infected lurk in the shadows and even the harsh Alaskan winter seems intent on taking his life. As he travels, Elliot encounters other survivors. Some offer fleeting moments of kindness and companionship, while others prove to be as dangerous as the infected. Whispers of a safe zone hidden deep in the Alaskan mountains give him a fragile hope, but the journey is fraught with peril. Every step brings new challenges, from evading the infected to enduring the relentless cold. Through Elliot’s eyes, the story explores the resilience of a child thrust into unimaginable circumstances. It’s a tale of survival, of the unbreakable bond between a boy and his dog, and of the flickering hope that keeps them moving forward even when the odds seem insurmountable. Themes: The loss of innocence and the discovery of inner strength. Survival in the face of both environmental and human threats. The enduring loyalty and companionship of a boy and his dog. Elliot’s journey serves as a poignant and harrowing introduction to the interconnected narratives of Apocalypse Perspective, highlighting the fragility of humanity and the enduring will to survive.

OLD-WORLD EXTRA

{Check out my new novel, Misunderstood Villain: Heroines Mourn My Death} 'Born In Ruins' was a forgettable read. That was the only way Emir could describe the pages of the novel he had found himself reincarnated into. The young man barely knew anything, but the snippets he had recalled only caused him unending sorrow... As what awaited him was only tragedy and an early death. It was a depressing story, one that he had planned to flip on its head—all for his salvation. — In this post-apocalyptic world, monsters fought humans and cyborgs in a battle for survival on a scale greater than ever before. A world where innocence and death were a luxury, where the line between heroes and villains was razor-thin. Within its expanse, 'Ancient Clans,' 'Galactic Federations,' 'Factions', and 'Corporations' presided over colossal 'Ruins' that dwarfed the concept of life itself. Survivors of the 'Third World War' continuously dove into the 'Old World,' 'Hunting' for 'Relics' in any ruin that they could find on Earth, desperate to reclaim 'Lost' technology, to stand a fighting chance against the inevitable. But it appeared that 'Earthkind' had met their match. …However, Emir would never allow that fate to take its course. — Emir unraveled layers of the tale and realized the truth of the world. He acquainted himself with the rules of this game before it fully consumed him. And now... no longer content with mere survival, he sought to dominate over the very fabric of this unforgiving universe. Emir shall rise from the pawn he once was, seeking to unravel the mysteries that hounded him. The boundaries of 'Aether,' his father’s disappearance, the noose hanging above his family’s head, and of course… his starless destiny, a fate he longed to control. This pursuit would earn him the epithet: "Prince Of The Fallen." ---------------------------------------------- *Tags: Reincarnation ;), Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Magical Realism, Academy (Volume 3), Romance, Apocalypse, {Anti-Hero. Villain.} *Expect this novel to start slowly; it begins ramping up at the halfway point of volume 1. *The Magic System is introduced at the end of volume 1, read my review and Auxiliary chapter for more on that. *Warning: The main characters have emotions like proper humans. So don't expect your usual emo kid as the MC and come complaining later.

THE SHAPE OF FEAR

The Shape of Fear is a suspenseful psychological thriller that delves deep into the darkness of a family’s cursed legacy. Told from the first-person point of view of Jemima, the novel follows her harrowing journey as she is drawn into the sinister world of the Vancourt family, who have been haunted for generations by supernatural forces. After the death of her husband, Sage, Jemima is contacted by a lawyer from the Vancourt estate, revealing that her late husband left an inheritance for their children, Kaius and Amari. However, to claim it, Jemima and her children must travel to the Vancourt mansion, a place that holds dark secrets and a disturbing history. As Jemima ventures into the mansion, she is confronted by the malevolent energy that still lingers there, alongside the powerful and intimidating Ryker Vancourt, the patriarch of the family. Throughout the novel, Jemima uncovers the horrifying truth about the Vancourts and the curse that has bound them for centuries. As she digs deeper, she discovers that her own husband, Sage, may have been a victim of the curse, and his death was not an accident but a desperate attempt to protect his family. Jemima is thrust into a world of dark rituals, ghosts, and unrelenting fear as she faces the supernatural forces that continue to haunt the Vancourt estate. The novel expertly blends suspense, emotional turmoil, and horror as Jemima’s protective instincts for her children push her to confront the truth behind the curse, even if it means facing unimaginable dangers. Alongside the supernatural threats, Jemima must also navigate the complex relationships within the Vancourt family, particularly with Ryker and his daughter Thalia, whose true motives remain unclear. As the story progresses, Jemima’s son, Kaius, begins to exhibit disturbing abilities, suggesting that the curse is not only affecting her family but is slowly taking hold of them as well. The mounting tension builds to a terrifying climax as Jemima learns that to break the curse, she must make an impossible choice: sacrifice herself or her children. The novel concludes with a chilling realization that, although the curse may be broken, the lingering shadow of fear will never fully leave Jemima and her children. The Shape of Fear is a tale of love, sacrifice, and survival, exploring the idea that some legacies are too dark to escape, no matter how hard you fight.
