Reili

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.

Author Notes: 
This is my third book, going to take what I learned from before to improve. 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.

Abyssal Awakening

Once Keira disappeared from her view, Alice could finally let out a sigh of relief.

If she was to grab her attention now, there was a chance that the other two would also show up.

However, if she doesn't destroy the western tower now, she'll be telling Olivr to kill her here and now.

'So you've shot yourself in the foot.' Alyss snickered as Alice rolled her eyes.

With no other choice, she began climbing up the western tower.

The formation they deployed around the city was rather rudimentary as they didn't even try to hide where the nodes are. Had it been the Abyss, Alice would've needed to try a little harder to spot it.

As she was climbing towards the top, she could sense the presence of more than 3 guards.

If she wanted to do this, she needed to do it fast.

Taking a deep breath, Alice pulled up her face mask to make sure her identity was hidden. Not that it mattered but it was good to have a safety net.
