Summary
Once, there was peace—a fragile, quiet breath that settled over the kingdom like a gentle lullaby.
Once, he made her laugh, his smile a beacon in the darkest nights, their joy a hidden sanctuary from the shadows creeping beyond the castle walls.
Once, their little girl danced barefoot through the palace halls, wildflowers woven in her hair, her laughter ringing like bells—a bright bloom in a cold world.But peace is delicate. It slips through fingers like smoke, and no matter how fierce or unyielding, love alone cannot hold back the coming storm.
This is the story of a mother whose heart beats only for her child, whose courage knows no limits in protecting what she holds most dear.
A king burdened by survival’s heavy weight, haunted by ghosts of a past that refuses to stay buried.
And a love so fierce and relentless it defies even the cruelest trials, refusing to fade as the world burns to ash.This is a tale of loss—the breaking of what was once whole.
Of what is worth fighting for when hope feels lost.
And of the faintest ember of light left in the endless night. -

Ah, the quiet life!
You, a humble beta, pretend the university is a neutral zone free of territorial markings and performance art.
How terribly, adorably naive.
Phainon is the school's golden boy: picture-perfect hair, a shirt that refuses to wrinkle, and a devotion that reads less like romance and more like a claim on your autonomy. He's so in love he'll trace your every misstep until you rot in a golden cage.
You have some other options, of course. But are you sure they are better than staying with the manic Alpha?yandere!dark!alpha!Phainon x beta!reader

Summary
In the storm-ravaged Duchy of Scandia, a baron's corrupted black water and the shadow of a great dragon set two souls on a desperate journey. Ivana Grimm, an alchemist-surgeon, seeks rational salvation in a superstitious, plague-ridden world. Angel Sapients, the baron’s once-crippled son, bears the burden of a dark family legacy.
Guided by an alchemical notebook and a white dragon scale, they travel north only to be sent south for "Old Grimm's Artifact." Through lands devoured by despair, fanatic faith, and swarms of white rats, they must answer alchemy’s ultimate question: what is the "Greatest Sacrifice" required for the Great Work—and can one achieve purification (Rubedo) without losing humanity?
A dark fantasy epic of reason vs. faith, and the moral cost of survival.
在风暴肆虐的斯坎迪亚公国，一位男爵呕出的腐化黑水，将两个灵魂推向绝望的旅程。炼金术士兼外科医生伊瓦那·格里姆，试图在沉沦于迷信与瘟疫的世界中以理性寻求救赎。男爵之子安杰尔·萨皮恩斯虽从残疾中痊愈，却背负着家族黑暗的遗产。
凭借一本炼金笔记与一片白龙鳞片的指引，他们北上寻求希望，却被引向南方寻找“老格里姆的神器”。穿越被绝望、狂热信仰和白鼠群吞噬的土地，他们必须回答炼金术的最终问题：完成“伟大之作”所需的“伟大牺牲”究竟是什么？人能否在达成净化（红化/Rubedo）的同时，不丧失人性？
一部关于理性与信仰对抗、生存与道德代价的黑暗奇幻史诗。

Summary
A young man finds himself to be the unwilling successor to his grandfather's Miraculous, an accursed thing that eats magic.
In a Paris where Hawkmoth's stalemate with Paris' Heroes has gone on far longer than anyone expected, in a Paris who now takes Akuma Attacks like a bout of bad weather, perhaps this was a blessing.
Or perhaps, this was simply a curse disguising itself as such. For such dark flames care not what feeds it, after all.
