Death, Devotion, Dissonance

Death, Devotion, Dissonance describes the story of Evin, a boy who learns he’s a mage in his 10th birthday. Finally, he could get rid of the Voice stuck in his head. After ten years of being thought as a lunatic by everyone around him, finally, he could be free of it. After all, mages are said to be able to do anything, right? A little Voice in his head shouldn’t be too hard to handle. However, things do not go as Evin planned. Turns out, the Voice in his head allows him to cast magic in a way accessible to only nobility of the kingdom. This new revelation puts Evin in the spotlight, as many people become curious as to why a commoner knows such things… Everyone seems to suddenly want something from him. Circumstances force Evin to trust the Voice in his head and listen to its advice, as he suddenly realizes that it’s the only ally he has inside the Academy. How will the relationship between these two develop? Will Evin be able to separate from the Voice or will he have to keep relying on it? What is the Voice and what is its purpose in the first place? ----- Author's notes: Ummm, If you want something light and fun, the novel's probably not for you. That doesn't mean it's hard to read, though. I, personally, do not believe in labyrinthine descriptions and over-convoluted terminologies. You'll know exactly what you're reading about and won't need to waste braincells trying to understand my sentences (unless I wanna pull a sneaky on ya and intentionally make things confusing). But thematically, the story's gonna be quite dark and heavy, especially in the earlier chaps. I do promise you'll be rewarded for it all later with satisfying characters and conclusions to plots, and I hope you can join me in this journey. Thank you for checking the novel out. uwuwu.

Edmund's face contorted in a weird mix of disbelief, hatred, and happiness. Disbelief due to the nature of the situation, hatred for the Voice, and happiness because he was right all along.

"I knew it! I've told everyone I know, even the mages, but not one of them dared to believe my words!"

'Ah, small men… in their small worlds…' Evin thought with a sigh. Unknowingly, a smile crept up on his lips.

"After all you've done to ruin your son's life, all you care about is being right. There really is no saving you. "

"I did not ruin Evin's life! It was you who messed his life up! It was you who ripped our family apart!"

"I was just a thing that spoke nothings in his mind. I wasn't so out of control that you couldn't forgive my presence. In fact, isn't that what you did at first? You just ignored me as the fancies of a child and stopped bothering yourself with my existence."
