Hiccup Sacrifices Himself

Shadow of Veilfire

In the kingdom of Aetherholt, a dark prophecy casts a long shadow over the birth of twin princes, Eris and Ealric. When an ancient curse threatens infant Eris, King Azrikal makes a desperate, secret pact with the enigmatic Veil, saving his son but binding himself to a chilling, consuming power known as Veilfire. Years later, as corrupted Riven Lords emerge and Prince Eris mysteriously vanishes, the true horror awakens: the Echo, a cosmic entity of unmaking, begins to consume Aetherholt. Eris reappears, no longer himself, but a terrifying conduit for the Echo, unleashing its destructive power from within the castle walls. As King Azrikal descends into a cold, relentless Warden, battling the Echo with his agonizing Veilfire, Queen Sylvaris races against time. Her desperate research uncovers not only Ealric's inherent, pure counter-aura, but also the forbidden Altar of Severance and its horrifying truth: a ritual to free Eris, but at "The Price"—a soul-rending cost that will forever fracture the twins. In a climactic, brutal confrontation, Azrikal makes the ultimate sacrifice, using his consumed essence to contain the Echo within the shattered Ley Lines of Aetherholt. The kingdom is saved, but at an unbearable cost: Azrikal is unmade, and Eris and Ealric are left as profoundly changed "shadow" and "light" fragments, their bond irrevocably fractured. Volume One plunges into a world where salvation demands unimaginable sacrifice, and peace is merely the quiet after the storm.

The Sacrifice of the Triplets - The Omega's Fate

"Your world is about to change." A voice whispered to me. I turned around but everywhere was dark and I couldn't make anything or anyone out. "Who is there?" I called out into the darkness. "I'm a friend Arin, no need to be frightened." The soft voice called out to me. "What do you want with me?" I questioned, my senses on high alert as I could feel the person moving around me in circles. "I don't want anything from you. I'm here to help you." The woman revealed and my brows furrowed in confusion. "Help me?" I asked. Arin is an omega born into the Bloodfang Pack, a role she’s long accepted but never fully embraced. Growing up with her best friend Siena, who dreams of becoming Luna, Arin has always been overlooked and dismissed by those around her, especially the Alpha’s sons, the triplets Kael, Jaxon, and Rowan. However, on her 18th birthday, everything shifts when Arin learns that her mate bond has been forged with one of the triplets. The triplets, each with their own distinct personalities and goals, are drawn into a tangled web of competition, love, and duty. Arin’s bond shifts between them, causing tension and uncertainty within the Pack. But Arin’s journey takes an unexpected turn when she learns of her true heritage: she is the descendant of an ancient royal bloodline, and her powers are linked to the Moonwell, the Pack’s most sacred and powerful source of life. As the Moonwell begins to fade, Arin’s destiny is revealed. Only she can restore the Moonwell and save the Pack, but doing so means losing her mate bond forever. The battle for the Pack’s future escalates when a betrayal leads to a civil war, and one of the triplets sacrifices himself to protect Arin and restore balance. With the Pack’s survival hanging by a thread, Arin must face the harsh reality of her choices and what it means to lead.

Author's Interference: The Children of Time

“You know, I’ve met death. Rather polite, actually. But it doesn’t knock, just lets himself in.” Life. That fleeting flicker between two eternities of silence. People spend it chasing things—money, love, validation, a good seat on the train. They build empires of paper, relationships of glass, and sleep each night under the illusion that tomorrow has been promised. But it hasn’t. It never was. Death doesn’t discriminate. It doesn’t care if you’re a king or a child. It arrives like an old friend, or a thief, or worse—like something you invited in. And yet… every now and then, the universe hiccups. A soul slips through. A crack opens. A second life is born—not as a reward, no, but as a test. Because what could be more dangerous than a man who's seen how the story ends—and comes back knowing exactly what not to do? But here’s the rub: a second chance is not a reset. It’s a curse with velvet gloves. You remember the pain, the loss, the betrayal—and worst of all, the choices you didn’t make. So when someone tells you this is just a story about life and death, smile politely. In many cases—in most cases—you’ll hear stories of heroes rising from the ashes, grateful for their second breath. However… in my case? I wanted to be the villain. To see a different end to this story. People say a person’s nature is hard to change. That deep down, we are who we are. But I changed... simply because I was curious. --------------- Join the discord server. https://discord.gg/BaP4c8b8Vq
