Across the Huron Sea: Lust For Life

Seized by a panic such as she had never experienced in the 21 short years of her life, Mira scrambled against the man's grip, and a whiff of blood mingled with an intoxicating scent of cedar. “Shh,” he murmured, lowering his head. Pressed against his firm chest, she gulped at the dark red seeping through his shirt ivory white. She risked a glimpse up. Under a silver-black phantom half mask was a sculpted face, strands of jet-black hair sweeping his cheeks. Contrasting his pale complexion were those burgundy red lips, above which, a straight nose cast a shadow on his thin eyes the color of onyx. He glanced down at her, his gaze otherworldly. “If you’re thinking of getting on the back of the truck,” he wheezed, his larynx heaving. “Bad idea.” Deep like the rumbling sea and magnetic, his gravelly voice threatened to drown any audience. ----- History repeats itself. In a world ten thousand years after ours perishes, the planet is ruled by the First World, consisting of the Commonwealth and the Republic across the Huron Sea. 21-year-old Mira de Armas must escape the Commonwealth after a posse of vigilantes who called themselves the Reds started a revolution and persecuted her stepfather till his death. Disguised as a boy, she smuggles herself to the Republic. As she tries to escape from the Customs, she is caught by the most wanted man of the First World, the last drug lord who has taken out all the Republican cartels. The man offers to take her to safety in exchange for helping him to a bunker and treating his wound from the gunshot. Left with no choice, Mira joins forces with the man and learns that he is Dr. Warshon Qusbecq, a renowned physician by day. As their journey uncovers old memories and reveals the conspiracy behind the election of the First World Premier, their relationship evolves from suspicion to mutual dependence and affection. Through intellectual sparring and the exchange of personal stories, they reveal emotional vulnerabilities to each other that they hide from the rest of the world. Drawing on her own experiences in the Commonwealth, Mira sees the truth as she falls into the dark: that darkness exists exactly because the light is shining and enjoyed on the other side. I hope you'll enjoy this romantasy.

Fostya. un monde magique sans système !

un type lambda fan de jeu de rôle (facilité scénaristique activé !) s'évanouie de fatigue en rentrant chez lui. il se réveille plus tard en constatant qu'il n'est plus dans la petite ruelle sombre menant à chez lui, qu'il ne sait pas comment il en ai arrivé là, et surtout, qu'il ne sait même pas vraiment quoi il est. reprenant un de ses surnom, Spyro, il se mettra en quête de découvrir cet univers étrange... sous la forme d'un limon ! une histoire où on voit, découvre et expérimente le monde à travers le héros. ce qui veut dire que la perception du monde peut être amenée à changer avec le temps... gros Update 11/07/2021 : Bonjour tout le monde, après une demi années d'absence, je suis enfin de retour aux affaires ! j'ai révisé un peu certains perso et corrigé quelques erreurs dans mon récit. je met un petit récap des quelques éléments importants qui ont été modifiés, sachant que cela spoilera un peu l'histoire. /// SPOILER /// description du groupe de Miria : j'avais malencontreusement oublié de signaler que Miria était une faréenne lors de sa première apparition. J'ai aussi mis en évidence que les murs avaient des matériaux anti-magique ! Miria ne parle plus du spar-sac lorsqu'elle détecte le MC. ça change rien, mais ça me semblait un peu plus logique. j'ai vu quelques "cristal d'identité". normalement, c'est "amulette d'identité". si jamais vous voyez encore cristal à certains endroits, n'hésitez pas à le signaler. lorsqu'Espérance participe aux examens de l'académie, elle laisse ses objets magiques à l'entrée. c'est con, mais je me suis rendu compte qu'après coup qu'avoir des objets magique lors d'un exam de magie, c'était pas trop logique en fait ! /// FIN /// A part ça, attendez vous à partir de maintenant à un chapitre par semaine environ. en tout cas, c'est l'objectif que je me fixe à partir d'aujourd'hui.
