The Heart of the Abyss

KaviRithi
**Synopsis:** Flora Hartman never believed in the stories of the sea, especially not the dark myths of the deadly mermaids that supposedly claimed her father's life. Determined to uncover the truth, Flora embarks on a dangerous journey across the Seven Seas in search of her father's shipwreck. Alone and shunned by the superstitious sailors, she is drawn into the depths of the ocean where a shocking encounter awaits — a merman named Kalith, who may hold the answers she's been seeking. Bound by a curse that ties his fate to the ocean's darkest secrets, Kalith reveals an ancient power — the Heart of the Abyss — a relic that can rewrite the destiny of both the living and the dead. As Flora finds herself entangled in a deadly struggle between love and survival, she must decide: return to the surface and abandon the man she has grown to love, or embrace the ocean's cold embrace and claim the power of the Heart to reshape their fates forever. With time running out and dangerous forces closing in, Flora must choose between life on land or eternity beneath the waves. In a world where the line between myth and reality blurs, will love prove stronger than the call of the abyss?

THE CROWN OF WATERS

Noel Vallis, a young boy born into the noble Vallis family, has always lived in the shadow of expectations. As the heir to a powerful estate, his life seems destined to follow a strict path, but Noel has always felt out of place. Raised in a world of discipline and secrets, he yearns for something more—something that doesn’t conform to the rigid rules of his family. When Noel discovers his mysterious connection to the ancient koi pond on his family’s estate, he unwittingly awakens a dormant power tied to his bloodline. Magic surges within him, but it’s a power that cannot be controlled. A dark crystal refuses to react, and Noel is left questioning his place in the Vallis legacy. His only confidant, Ethen—his childhood friend and the son of his nanny—reveals that Noel is not just any heir, but the true heir to an ancient, magical legacy tied to the very land itself. The Vallis family’s secrets have been hidden for centuries, lost during the Empire Unification War. No heir has appeared in over 300 years, and Duke Vallis, Noel’s father, remains unaware of the true history that binds their family to an ancient seal—the Throne of Waters. This seal lies within the koi pond, a place that has always comforted Noel, but now holds a deeper meaning. It is a key to immense, untapped power, and only Noel, as the true heir, can unlock it. With the help of Ethen, Noel begins a journey of self-discovery and magical awakening. But the power within him comes with a price. As he grows stronger, he must confront his fears, his painful past, and the dark secrets of the Vallis family. The road ahead is fraught with danger, and Noel must learn to master the magic that flows through his veins, all while protecting his family’s legacy from those who seek to control it for their own gain.
