The Cursed Reliquary Chronicles
The Cursed Reliquary Chronicles blends sacred light with sinful longing, wrapping forbidden magic in velvet shadows and candlelit devotion. It’s an aesthetic of gothic beauty, trembling miracles, and desire that looks dangerously close to faith.
Not all lights are holy.
Temptation and Redemption never walked so close.
The CRC Prequel is a lyrical, gothic coming-of-age fantasy about exile, belonging, and the strange beauty of what cannot be named. Written for readers of magical realism and dark fairy tales, it captures the wonder and danger of living in a world haunted by miracles.
When a young Cleric is sent from the city to a remote mountain village, it feels less like an assignment than an exile. Too young, too curious, too easily admired—our hero is sent away for reasons no one will name. Seeking shelter one rain-soaked night, they find an inn at the edge of nowhere—and within it, a stranger whose very presence seems to change the air.
The stranger’s beauty is strange and fevered, their warmth almost unreal. When their eyes meet, our hero’s certainty falters. By the time a cloaked figure arrives to claim what the stranger owes, our hero will learn that some wonders do not ask to be explained—they ask to be survived.The Cursed Reliquary Chronicles begins with is a coming-of-age prequel wrapped in myth and shadow—a meditation on wonder, doubt, and the cost of seeing what others refuse to see.
