Nyxren: The Lord of Elements

"Warning: This story contains graphic violence, psychological trauma, and dark themes, including torture and war crimes. Reader discretion is advised. If you are sensitive to such content, please proceed with caution. I am Nyxren Vares, Prince of Quana—a world where everyone wields the elements: Fire, Water, Earth, Air, and Spirit. My favorite? Spirit. It lets me move things without lifting a finger. I am not Lazy! Yeah. I am not. I have an older brother, Ray, the perfect heir—strong, wise, and just like our father. I admire him, but I don’t want to become him. Then there’s Sylvia, my twin sister. She’s older than me by 25 seconds. I hate that. She’s a bookworm, always experimenting… usually on me. When I was twelve, I found a strange wristwatch—something that doesn’t exist in our world. It opened portals to other planets. I used it. I ended up on Earth, a world without Elementals. There, I met a girl—Sarina. She was my age, with deep violet hair and crystal-like lavender eyes. I loved Earth, but I had two problems. First: The planet’s name—it’s literally an element. Second: I couldn’t stay. No matter what, I always had to return home. For years, I visited Earth just to see Sarina. She was calm, kind… but also terrifying when angry. No one dared to test her temper unless they had a death wish. Then, when I was seventeen—she vanished. Adopted. Gone. No trace. I searched. I failed. I told myself to forget. But I couldn’t. I kept returning, hoping to see her just once more. Two years passed. Then, my mother died. In her final moments, she had a vision of the future: "Twelve years from now, Quana will be attacked. A civilization from Vyom—stronger than us, wielding runes to control the universe’s energy… Mana." "Nyx... she... is... the Shadow. The Vessel of Death... Whispers of Twilight." I had always kept my device a secret. But that day, I told my family. Ray prepared for war. But Sylvia and I had a different plan. We had to find Vyom—understand their magic, uncover their secrets. Somehow, Sylvia used my device better than me and transported us there. But then— It broke. Now, we’re stranded in Vyom. A world oblivious to other civilizations. A world of magic, war, and unknown dangers. We need to get home. We need to stop this war before it begins. But above all— Who is the Vessel of Death my mother spoke of? Could it be… Sarina? That’s impossible. She’s on Earth. …Right? I wish so. I just wanted to live a peaceful life. Sarina, please be safe. Father, Ray Take care of yourself first. Let's see what happens next?

Waitress in the day, Vampire at night

*Excerpt* "Argh..." Ellie forced herself to stop moving, and she pushed the man dragging her away by her arm with all the strenght she could muster. "Aren't you listening to me? He's only a child. Please." she pleaded. The man was as solid as a concrete wall, and although he barely moved a step away despite the force she used in pushing him, her actions seemed to have made him stop dragging her. Or maybe not. Because the next second, she heard the sound of the sole of a shoe hit the ground, then another, and another... Turning around in apprehension, she realized the painter had finally turned from his painting and was walking toward her. Her bones froze instantly. His face... She had no words to describe how beautiful he was, even though his skin was almost white. His dark brown hair fell over his forehead, almost covering his dangerously cold dark grey eyes. His steps were slow and majestic, making him look like a top ranked demon walking out of hell with just one agenda — to end her miserable life. He reeked of bloodlust, and the aura around him radiated death and destruction. The hairs on her skin stood up in reaction to the threat approaching her, and knowing she couldn't outrun him, she fell on her knees. "P-please, I-im s-sorry for disturbing you a-and pushing him. My brother is only a child. He's sick and I'm the only one he has. If you must imprison me, then I beg you to at least take him to an orphanage." Ellie pleaded, stuttering for the first time in her life, her eyes fixed on the floor. A moment later, she felt a cold finger touch her chin, pushing her head. When that was done, he took off her mask, exposing her face. Ellie's heart was beating wildly by this time. There was no trace of warmth, neither did any emotion register on his face upon seeing her complete facial features. It was just plain, cold, blankness. "You are in no position to make demands." His lips finally moved, and the words that came out of his mouth crushed Ellie's heart. "It's not a demand. Just a request. I don't want him to die." She persisted. "What makes you think I would grant such a request?" "Because it's the right thing to do." Ellie gave the obvious answer, but his face twisted like she just spit poison at him. "Do I look like someone who gives a fuck about doing the right thing?" "No!" Ellie answered truthfully. "I'm sorry. I made a mistake. Saving my brother is not the right thing. It is the wrong thing. In fact, I can assure you it is the wrongest thing to do." She made a quick U-turn, and the painter's brows flew up in surprise for just a second, before his next order jumped out of his mouth. "Take her away." *** Life dealt Ellie Sander a cruel blow when her parents suddenly died in a car crash, leaving her to cater for her five year old anaemic brother, whose ability to walk was affected by the same crash. With no money, no stable job, and no help coming from anywhere, she was forced to take advantage of the insecurity in their town to fend for herself and her brother. Being a waitress in the day and a fake Vampire at night, she raised enough money and all went well until one night when she met with the real vampire, and her freedom was taken away.
