Thomas Hardy Romantic

The Son of a Legend. The Key to a Curse. Thomas Vance has spent his life overshadowed by the legacy of his father, Edward Vance—the fearsome pirate of the Black Tide. Fifteen years ago, Edward disappeared into infamy, vanishing along with the Leviathan’s Heart, a fabled relic said to command the seas themselves. But his theft came at a cost: a devastating curse that condemned him and his crew to an eternal, watery damnation. Now, that curse is rising once more—and it’s coming for his son. When the enigmatic and resourceful Celeste warns Thomas that the dreaded Blackbeard is hunting him, he discovers that his bloodline holds the key to shattering the curse that has plagued his family. To save himself, and prevent the wrath of the Leviathan’s Heart from engulfing the seas in chaos, Thomas must confront the dark legacy his father left behind. Joined by the fiercely loyal Jonah and guided by Celeste, Thomas embarks on a perilous voyage to Tortuga—a lawless stronghold of pirates and rogues. There, they must seek out Jack Wren, a drunken relic of piracy’s golden age, who alone knows how to navigate the Devil’s Spine—a cursed expanse of sea shrouded in whispers of death and madness. It’s there, amidst treacherous waters and ghostly legends, that the Sovereign’s Fury vanished, along with the answers Thomas seeks. But the seas hold deeper dangers. To break the curse, unravel the mystery of his father’s fate, and destroy the Leviathan’s Heart, Thomas will face relentless pirate captains, the vengeance of the ocean’s fury, and the haunting specter of Edward Vance himself. Caught between the past and an uncertain future, Thomas must rise beyond his lineage—or sink beneath it. Destiny calls. The legend begins. Love this story? Rate and comment and let N. J.

Fog shrouded Victorian London, but not the 1888 we’d recognise. There’s a whiff of revolution in the air, not to mention lycanthropy in the shires. As Mr Eiffel’s tower nears completion in Hyde Park, famed Egyptologist Sir Percy Tiverton returns with his latest find — a nameless book so mysterious not even the Royal College of Alchemists can decipher its runes. Alexander Faversham is England’s foremost champion of derring-do, but his legend is built on sand. Loyal-to-a-fault manservant Bill might know more about his master’s heroics than either are letting on. When the nameless book is stolen, Bill’s entanglement threatens to bring his carefully constructed façade crashing down. There’s something nasty lurking in the shadows and it wants its book back. Who would dare confront the tentacles slithering from the sewers? When the Empire needs a hero, it doesn’t always get the one it expects. Gothic/Cosmic Horror/Alt History

Sigrid's eyes trailed down, to the silver blade pressed against her abdomen, she raised her head and laughed snidely. "A knife to the belly of your wife as soon as you return from war, other men start by saying, honey i am home. They also don't bring home unwanted canaries as presents for their wives." Roland leaned down with a part smug and part angry smoldering look in his eyes. It was if he wished to set her on fire, and not in the passionate way. "Honey i am home." he slowly said, dragging the words out. Sigrid trailed the knife slowly over his neck, almost as if she was caressing it with her fingers. "Welcome back, i hope you don't mind but i intend to kill that canary. If you want to bring me a gift next time, try gold and diamonds. I can also accept you, just wrap a ribbon around your bare chest."

Once, my life had been nothing. No friends, no family, no significant other... it was a life hardly worth living. Then I found myself in the body of Thomas Filmore, the villain for the first half of my favourite game, Rising Hero. He was a character destined to be killed and have his power stolen—a well-deserved but pitiable fate for such an evil person. Avoiding the terrible fate waiting in store for Thomas would have been easy, but that required me to step away from the plot. If I wanted to guarantee my life, I would have to give up all significance. Once more, a life with nothing, a life hardly worth living. So, I decided to do the opposite. I decided to remain in the plot and fight! Only time will tell if that was the right decision.

We follow the journey of Thomas, a young boy trapped in a cycle of poverty and abuse, who stumbles upon a secret that will forever alter the course of his life – and potentially, the world. He discovers he possesses a rare connection to an ancient force called the Eternal Spark, granting him the potential for immortality but also marking him as a target. The narrative follows Thomas as he transforms from a frightened child into a powerful, immortal gunslinger known as "The Shadow Weaver." He navigates a dangerous path, honing his abilities by mastering glyphs, an ancient language that allows him to manipulate life force, time, and even the elements. Driven by a thirst for knowledge and a need for revenge, Thomas battles corrupt forces, explores the morality of power, and grapples with the chilling lure of chaos. As his understanding grows, he is drawn into a hidden conflict between the Seekers, a group dedicated to understanding and protecting the Eternal Spark, and the Watchers, a mysterious organization that seeks to control it. The lines between good and evil blur as Thomas's journey forces him to confront not only external threats but also the darkness within his own heart. He's forced to confront his path of destruction, and it would lead to change that would be necessary, not for survival, but for a destiny that he could finally control.
