Reincarnation In

Reincarnation of the Nightbreaker

Lyra Kade, a cynical urban archaeologist, thrives on the tangible. Her world is one of dusty artifacts and logical explanations, a stark contrast to the ancient myths she dismisses as folklore. But when she unearths an enchanted dagger linked to the legendary Nightbreaker – a hero who once bound the formidable sorcerer-king, Kairos Vane – her carefully constructed reality shatters. Accidentally, Lyra releases Kairos, only to discover a horrifying truth: he died cursing the next mortal heir of the Nightbreaker’s line. That heir is Lyra herself, reincarnated. Kairos, weakened by millennia of imprisonment, desperately needs Lyra’s blood to fully break a demon seal that is dangerously weakening. But Lyra, haunted by a childhood brush with uncontrolled magic, has vowed never to embrace it again. Initially at bitter odds – he, an ancient, arrogant king attempting to coerce her blood; she, a snarky, pragmatic woman treating him as a mythic prankster – Lyra and Kairos are forced into an uneasy alliance. A fanatical cult, the Shadowbound, seeks to exploit the weakening seal, attempting to resurrect the very demons Kairos once defeated. As the city trembles under the cult's escalating rituals, Lyra must confront her deepest fears and embrace the Nightbreaker’s hidden legacy. Guided by Kairos, she taps into a purifying power she never knew she possessed, leading them to a climactic confrontation in a ruined temple. There, Lyra not only defeats the cult and sends the Void creatures back to the abyss, but also frees Kairos from his ancient bonds and demonic curses. In gratitude, and with a profound, newfound tenderness, Kairos offers to reclaim Lyra’s mortal soul as his queen. Lyra, who always mocked fairy tales and dismissed romance as illogical, surprises everyone—most of all herself—by sealing their eternal bond with a kiss.

Wistful Reincarnation

am the original author of Wistful Reincarnation. I am also publishing this story on RoyalRoad.com under the username Tuttle Fish: https://www.royalroad.com/profile/778432/fictions Auden died with nothing. No legacy, no loved ones, no one who even knew he was gone. His life was quiet, bitter, and painfully forgettable—cut short by a betrayal he didn’t see coming. As his final moments faded, so did any belief he had that someone might mourn him. But death wasn’t the end. He wakes to a world unfamiliar. Magic exists, but it’s nothing like the fairy tales—twisted things called Hexes bend the rules of reality in terrifying ways, and those who use them are marked. He’s reborn into a quiet village, into a family that isn’t his, and for a while, he tries to keep his head down. Keep things simple. Keep his distance. But life never cooperates. When danger comes too close to home and he’s nearly killed protecting the people who took him in, something in Auden changes. It’s not bravery. Not heroism. Just a desperate, selfish feeling he can’t ignore: He doesn’t want to lose them. So he makes a vow—one he never made in his old life. If he’s been given this second chance, then he’ll do everything he can to protect it. Even if it means enduring pain, hiding truths, or confronting the strange, broken power buried inside him. ‘Wistful Reincarnation’ is a grounded, slow-burn fantasy about second chances, quiet bonds, and the long, often painful road toward healing. It’s not a story of grand quests or chosen ones—it’s about a boy who once had nothing, learning—slowly, stubbornly—what it means to have something worth losing.
