Whispers of Ice and Flame

Bartek_Nowatkowski
Chapters will be published on Tuesdays and Fridays In a world where every person is born with a single elemental affinity, magic is more than power—it's identity. From water that becomes ice, to fire that crackles into lightning, mastery over your element defines your future. Yoru Mikazuki, a quiet boy with an affinity for ice, carries a mana unlike any other—calm, sharp, and distant like the moonlight. When he's admitted to the prestigious Astrae Academy, a place where students learn to shape their magic, forge contracts with beasts, and awaken advanced techniques, Yoru’s journey truly begins. But in a society where power, prestige, and lineage dictate respect, Yoru’s path is far from easy. Behind his composed exterior lies a storm of secrets, strength, and something... unspoken. As rivalries flare, truths unravel, and bonds are tested, the boy born under a frozen moon must decide who he truly is—and what he's willing to become. #romance, #fantasy, #magic, #school life

The Next General

"Have you heard of him?" A small boy tugged at a woman's skirt, his tiny finger pointing at the large portrait of a man clad in a minister’s robe. "Shhh! Don’t say its name!" The woman hushed him, glancing around anxiously. She knew the boy was only curious about the drawing, yet the inscription beside it spoke of someone else entirely. Still, the credit had been given to the man in the portrait. "Why?" "We just... don’t say it." "Are you talking about The Next General?" A man dressed as a scholar interjected, inserting himself into the conversation. "Everyone is talking about it. After a hundred years, it has returned. I can't decide whether that fills me with hope or dread." His words were meant to impress, to showcase his knowledge, but the woman only tightened her grip on the boy, scooped him up, and hurried away like a hunted animal sensing danger. The scholar let out a single sharp laugh. "A chaotic rhythm… and marvellously extraordinary times are upon us," he murmured, before turning and walking away. --- Disclaimer This is a work of fiction.
