Abyssal Awakening

Having spent her childhood confined in chains, Alice was a child who knew neither love nor joy. Scorned by her family while being tortured in the name of the greater good for years, she grew numb to all feeling and thought. That is, until one day, a man in black offered her a chance to escape. There were once rumours widespread of an endless hell, a land of glorious death and dreadful opportunity. Fools went in search of it, and the clever never ventured into it. Only when its baleful mysteries spilled unto the earth did all hear its name — the Abyss. A single drop of its blood could give someone the power to control shadows, move faster than sound, or strength greater than the strongest man. Yet, it all came at a cost; the blood would always make sure those who consumed it became part of the Abyss, with one exception — Alice. Cast away by her own blood, it was her destiny to rot in a gilded cage. But, that fateful day changed everything. Gifted a second chance at life, a chance to turn her life around and claim vengeance against her family, a chance to dive deep into the Abyss and gain the power to govern her own fate, Alice took his hand, unaware of the destiny unfolding before her.

This book will be focusing on plot, action, depths of character bonds and overall a darker tone/take on this cruel fantasy world I've cooked up for this book! If you give this book a try, I hope you enjoy! A very different experience and tone to Nanomancer Reborn.

Experiments

With a myriad of ideas now floating through her mind, Alice wanted to begin the experiments immediately but there was a slight issue.

Due to the nature of her first Sigil, testing out the potency of her blood was going to be difficult. As the bearer, she herself wasn't affected by the poison meaning she'll need to find some subjects for her to use.

"There are some beasts that roam around at night for you to test on. They're not too dangerous and only have abilities that augment their own attack. It should be pretty easy for you to deal with them." Allura called out, knowing that Alice was excited.

"Thank you."

Nodding her head, Alice packed everything into a small cloth before strapping it around her back. Dashing away from the campfire, there were three things that Alice wanted to test.

First was how long her blood poison lasted without her interference.

Second, can she turn a foreign pool of blood into poison?
