When ordinary high school student Lila Gray discovers a hidden prophecy buried in the pages of an ancient book, her world shatters. Marked by fate and bound by a mysterious bloodline, she learns she is one of the Chosen—warriors destined to battle an ancient darkness threatening to swallow the world.

Haunted by visions, guided by cryptic verses, and protected by Adrien—a stranger with a timeless soul and secrets of his own—Lila is thrust into a world of mirrors that whisper, temples that remember, and a war that began lifetimes ago.

As she unravels the truth behind her glowing amulet and the power it holds, Lila must confront not just the shadows of the past, but the darkness within herself. Loyalties will be tested, hearts will be broken, and destiny will demand a sacrifice. In a realm where every choice could change the fate of humanity, Lila must decide: Will she rise as the light... or fall to the shadow?


Chronicles of the chosen

Lila had already returned from her trial glowing with the power of the Chrona Flame, and though the weight of her experience still lingered in the room, the others knew their own reckonings were far from over. 


The archway lit with a cold, rippling blue light. Without a word, she entered, swallowed by the glow. 


She found herself surrounded by water. An endless sea with no sky, no sun—just darkness. She swam, her limbs heavy, her breath ragged. 


"You couldn't save her," the sea whispered. "You watched your sister drown." 


Kael saw the face. Her sister. Pale. Smiling in memory but screaming in regret. 


"You wear strength like armor to hide your guilt." 


A wave crashed over her. She sank. And in the darkness, her sister's voice whispered: "It was never your fault." 


Kael opened her eyes underwater. And cried. For the first time in years.
