The Zombie Heiress

Oderah_
She was forgotten. Until the dead started answering to her. ___________________ A long time ago, when demons still walked among men and the world was full of chaos, a dark prophecy swept through the three kingdoms. It said the undead would rise again and wipe out the human race. Afraid and desperate, the kings gave up what mattered most. They offered the blood of their firstborn virgin daughters, hoping the Holy Creator would hear their cry. He did. The Creator covered the land with a sacred veil. It kept the dead from crossing into the world of the living. But nothing lasts forever. __________________ Kaelyn was never meant to be born on the day of the Blood Eclipse. She was branded a curse from the start. No songs welcomed her into the world. No feasts followed her birth. Her birth brought no glory. Only quiet disgrace. Queen Isolde hid her away before she could even speak, hoping the world would forget she existed. While her brothers trained to lead armies and sit on thrones, Kaelyn lived behind high walls—buried in quiet, and watching life pass by through a narrow window. And the world did forget her. Until the veil tore.

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.
