Shadow And Silver Watch

Swing into a journey that will keep you guessing until the very end... A world of royal intrigue, mystery, power, politics, fate, loyalty, and forbidden love, set against the backdrop of a complicated arranged marriage, where duty and obligation clash with desire and fate, in a world where nothing is as it seems... ***** "You know, Hero, your uncle is playing a dangerous game. He wants his useless son, Prince Arin, to become the king of Xarenzia, and he's willing to do whatever it takes to make that happen." Hero's expression remained neutral, his eyes never leaving Malum's face. Malum continued, "And it's not just your uncle. Ryker's father, Lord Kael, is also playing a similar game. He wants his son, Ryker, to become the king of Azuraea, and he's willing to eliminate anyone who stands in his way, including Princess Zulin." Hero's eyes narrowed slightly, but he said nothing. Malum's smile grew wider. "But here's the thing, Hero. Your uncle and Lord Kael are working together, at least for now. They plan to attack the king today, on his way Xarenzia." Hero's expression turned slightly grave, his eyes flashing a hint of concern. Malum's tone turned serious. "But what you may not know, Hero, is that your uncle has a backup plan. He's planning to probably eliminate Ryker and his father once he's done using him to take down his targets. And then, he'll marry Princess Astrid to his son, Arin, and secure the alliance between Xarenzia and Azuraea." "Astrid, he thought, would be a mere puppet on strings, a pawn in his grand game of power. With the king and queen eliminated, his ascension to power would be all but assured." A dark, mirthless smile twisted on Hero's lips, and his iridescent blue eyes seemed to gleamed with a sinister light, taking on a mysterious, almost surreal quality, like the glint of moonlight on dark water. "I know, but... He'll need to grow an extra head before he can succeed." He sneered, his voice low and menacing. ***** In a surprising twist, Princess Zulin awakens to find herself in a mysterious realm, unsure if she's dead or alive. With memories of her death still fresh, she's trapped in a surreal nightmare that feels all too familiar - like a lost heroine in a horror movie. She heard a cryptic voice reveal that, she is a living dead, revived by a powerful force in an ethereal world. But with this new existence comes a dark realization: she's no longer the damsel in distress, but a force to be reckoned with - the antagonist in her own twisted tale. With her sister now marrying her supposed fiancé, Zulin's desire for revenge ignites a burning fire within. Torn between getting a second chance to reclaim the throne that was rightfully hers and exacting revenge on those who wronged her, Zulin must decide whether to surrender to the darkness within and forge a new path, or to cling to her former life and risk losing herself forever. Weighing her options, she made her choice. But here is the unsettling truth: making her choice doesn't guarantee control over her fate. The threads of destiny are complex, and the forces of fate seems like they've already set their own plan in motion. She made her choice, but fate has made its own...

In another life, Mark Walker was nothing—just a lonely soul drifting through an empty existence. Now, he is William Alpin, a forgotten prince in a kingdom of light. Overshadowed by his noble family, he prefers it that way—until the shadows start moving on their own.

In a world teetering on the edge of oblivion, the Black Maw has become more than a whispered legend—it is a trial that grants power at an unfathomable cost. When the sky cracked and the forgotten world began to awaken, humanity found itself caught in the grip of forces beyond comprehension. Those who survive the Maw’s trials return irrevocably changed, marked by power and burdened by the weight of their choices. Kael was not a hero. He was selfish, ruthless, and driven only by his own survival. But when he enters the Maw seeking strength, he is forced to confront something even more terrifying than the horrors lurking in the ruins: himself. In a place where morality is measured in sacrifice, Kael meets someone who forces him to question everything. When the trial reaches its crescendo, he makes a decision that no one before him ever has—killing one to save another, only to die himself in the ultimate act of selflessness. But death is not the end. Resurrected with both the greatest reward for good and the darkest power granted to the wicked, Kael emerges into a world that can no longer perceive him in absolutes. To some, he is a savior, a beacon of hope against the encroaching nightmare. To others, he is a monster whose existence threatens to unravel the fragile balance between the survivors and the unknown forces stirring in the dark. His power is bound to perception—he can only heal those who believe in his goodness, only destroy those who see him as evil. Yet even this ability is a double-edged sword, for he may shift perception at a cost that eats away at his body, mind, and soul. As war brews between those who thrived in the Maw through cruelty and the few who emerged through sacrifice, Kael stands at the precipice of a conflict that will determine the fate of both humanity and the world that seeks to reclaim its forgotten dominion. The remnants of the past whisper warnings in the ruins, and a hidden enemy—one who first awakened in the Maw’s depths—watches his every move. Haunted by his choices, hunted by those who fear or worship him, Kael must carve his own path between ash and shadow. Will he become the hero the world desperately needs, or will he be consumed by the very darkness he once embraced?
