The Seventh son

Every seventh-born son in the village of Elderglen is cursed—marked from birth to carry a dark burden. On his 21st birthday, he either dies… or disappears into the forest. No one returns. No one speaks of it.



But when *Elias Thorn*, the newest seventh son, reaches the age of reckoning, he refuses to vanish quietly. He wants answers. But the truth behind the curse is older than the village itself—something buried in blood, rooted in betrayal, and kept alive by ritual.
