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.

Third Door

Seeing the reflection, Alice couldn't help but frown. It was familiar but she couldn't believe this was the core of her being.

Her reflection looked exactly the same as the current her with the exception of having full black hair and normal eyes. If Velouria was full white with Cayla in each eye then 'Alice' would be the complete opposite.

Not only that but also the way she carried herself. The aura around her was all too familiar with Alice.

'You're my 'hunger' aren't you?' Alice thought in her mind hesitantly.

'Hunger? Hmm… I wouldn't say hunger. More so… Desire.' 'Alice' shrugged nonchalantly while peeking over Alice's shoulders to look at the other two.

'Say, what do you think would happen if we ate a piece of their soul? You know that we take souls when we drink someone's blood. If we were to drink Griselda's blood, I wonder how many souls we'll be able to obtain.' 'Alice' narrowed her eyes before licking her lips.
