A Hymn Before Battle

Desmond Woods and his friends, dedicated fans of the popular novel Crown of Glory, are thrust into a world of mystery and danger when they meet the novel’s reclusive author, known only by his pen name, Lazy_Nerd. What begins as an ordinary fan meet-up quickly turns dark as Lazy_Nerd reveals a chilling secret: his fictional world will cross into reality in ten days. Through a powerful ritual, an ancient group has transformed Crown of Glory from mere words on a page into a portal. Now, characters from the story—heroes, monsters, and villains alike—would be able to slip between worlds. The problem? If these characters escape unchecked, they could wreak havoc on a reality unprepared for their power and chaos. Lazy_Nerd warns that he is now the "anchor" to this gateway, unable to enter his own world without trapping himself and anyone else who dares follow. Desmond, the skeptical but loyal Lizzie, and the curious twin brothers Laurence and Lucas must make a choice. Tasked with crossing into Crown of Glory to stop its villainous forces from escaping, they’re given only an hour to decide. Each of them wrestles with fear, doubt, and hidden struggles, but they understand that their decision will decide the fate of both worlds. In a battle where fantasy and reality collide, they must rely on their knowledge of the story’s twists, turns, and dangers to survive. But as the lines between fiction and reality blur, Desmond and his friends discover that some truths—and enemies—are more dangerous than anything they’ve ever read. Will they risk everything to save their world, or will they find themselves lost in the story forever?

Alex had always been driven, working tirelessly to climb the corporate ladder. Landing a job at Hamilton Corp, the most prestigious company in the city, had been the culmination of all his hard work and sleepless nights. And when he was appointed as the assistant to the company’s president, Drake Hamilton, it felt like a dream come true. Alex couldn’t believe his luck—working alongside a business legend known for his unshakable calm, sharp intellect, and a presence that commanded any room he walked into. But Drake was more than just an intimidating boss. He was an enigma, a man who somehow knew everything happening within the company, often before it even happened. There were whispers among the staff, rumors that seemed too absurd to be true, that Drake didn’t age, that he was rarely seen in the daylight, that his presence felt... different. One late night, after a particularly exhausting day, Alex decided to stop by a quiet bar downtown to unwind. As he took a seat near the back, his eyes caught sight of someone in the shadows—a familiar figure he hadn’t expected to see in a place like this. Drake Hamilton. At first, Alex assumed his boss was just having a late-night drink. But then, he noticed something that sent a chill through him. In the dim light, Drake’s head was tilted, and his mouth was near the neck of the person beside him, a pair of sharp fangs glinting in the shadows. Alex's blood ran cold. He felt his heart thunder in his chest, disbelief settling over him like a fog. He took a shaky breath, whispering to himself as reality sank in. "The president of Hamilton... is a vampire."
