The Chronicles of Sara
In a universe teetering on the edge of chaos, Auralis Ji Xin Mon, a brilliant noble born with unparalleled control over elemental and psychic powers, rises through the ranks in his quest for ultimate knowledge and power. Driven by a hunger to rewrite history and establish a world where he’s worshipped as a savior, he seeks the fabled Heat of Pandora—an artifact capable of erasing history and bending minds to his will. But his ambition comes at a steep price: a pact with Pandora that demands a decade of his life and the sacrifice of his only loved one.
Opposing him is Aliys, a descendant of the revered Chrono Valkyries, warrior maidens of immense power who wield the arts of Okai and Uryu, capable of controlling time and transforming in battle. As Auralis grows closer to his goal, Aliys is trained by her mother, Aisha, a former Chrono Valkyrie, to master ancient techniques and harness the power of the Bloody Valkyrie Form, a state of enhanced strength that tests her sanity.
Joined by a half-giant warrior and their steadfast mentor Herly, Aliys and her allies prepare for a journey across mystical realms and dangerous dungeons to stop Auralis before he reshapes reality itself. But as Auralis uncovers more secrets of the Heat of Pandora and begins his conquest, both hero and villain confront the lengths they’ll go to seize control over their destinies—and the sacrifice that true power demands.
In this early arc, Auralis’s ambition and talent are starting to be noticed, and he’s slowly climbing through the ranks, proving himself in unexpected ways. Meanwhile, Aliys is growing under the guidance of her mother, learning about the great powers of the Valkyries and training to wield her abilities for the challenges that lie ahead. Auralis’s path toward darkness and ambition, Aliys’s journey to become a legendary Valkyrie, and the eventual clash of their destinies are all hinted at, with much of the story’s deeper lore and twists to be revealed in future chapters.
