WARNING: Somewhat mature, has occasional coarse language and violence, lots of talk about death and loss.

The first entry in my third short story series, The Necromancer Prince!

Out beyond the Twelve Worlds of humanity's far future, in the boundary realm between life and death, there lies the Halls of Memento Mori, home to Janus Coinblack, The Thirteenth Necromancer Prince. Scion of Sovereign Death, Duke of the Crepuscular Court, Keeper of the Hellhounds, he watches over the spirits crossing between the world of the living and eternal oblivion with his Scythebearer Carmen Salazar and his sentient Gateway Dorian Avery.

One night, Sovereign Death comes to Prince Janus in a dream, demanding he come to the Silent Court and carry out an urgent mission. A journey across the realms of life, death, time and space ensues as Prince Janus and his servants seek out something of great value that may be lost forever...

Mistress of the Veil by OdettaLaman
18 parts Ongoing Mature
When the boundary between life and death thins, Daphne DeLaris finds herself trapped between two worlds. After a tragic car accident claims the life of her best friend, Daphne is haunted by Death's cold shadow. Night after night, she dreams of the Final Horseman, cloaked in darkness, silently reminding her that her fate is no longer her own. The Veil is no mere boundary-it is a living realm teeming with power, a dark reflection of both life and death. In this twilight world, cities rise and fall, while every shadow hides a secret. The dead, the damned, and the defiled are locked in a delicate struggle for control. At the center of it all stands Daphne, the Mistress of the Veil, bound by necromantic powers gifted to her by Death himself. Her task? To maintain balance in a realm ruled by chaos, betrayal, and ambition. But when political factions from the Order of the Coven and infernal forces vie for control over her prophecy, Daphne is thrusted into a complex web of deceit. She must navigate a precarious relationship with an ancient Vampyr Elder, a cunning Wizard with ties to the Coven, and a Devil's Disciple who rides at the edge of chaos. Together, they offer Daphne guidance-or so they claim-on how to harness her powers as Mistress of the Veil. But who among them truly seeks to help her, and who seeks to control the very realm she is meant to protect? As the Veil begins to bleed into the mortal world and time runs out, Daphne must confront not only Death but her own inner darkness. The greatest battle she will face is not with the forces that seek to rule the Veil, but with herself. Will Daphne embrace her destiny as the Mistress of the Veil, or will she succumb to the ever-growing shadows threatening to consume her-and the world as she knows it?
The Misadventures of Anna Cabbot by MollyLouise
44 parts Complete Mature
Anna Cabbot is both a self-proclaimed ditchwitch and, by flat-lining during an unexpected visit from Death in cardiac ICU, an unwilling necromancer. The latter has her starting her new tenure in Buffalo with more side-eye and less friendship bracelets from the local magical community. Her first real friend - aside from her landlady neighbor - is a selkie named Carson who introduces himself by flopping out of the Niagara River onto her lap. Before that fateful night is out, Anna's a one-woman magical cavalry for the Lady of Lake Erie and knee deep in an adventure she didn't ask for. Nigel, the Lady of Lake Erie's brother, has gone missing. Anna's urge to help those in need has her - and Carson - diving headfirst into the mystery of Nigel's disappearance. First and foremost is a visit to the Bookkeeper, the top of Buffalo's magical food chain whose fingers are seemingly in every pie worth eating. They closest they come to the elusive Bookkeeper is Jamie Murdock, the hired muscle. Jamie's content to divulge what little he knows about Nigel, but he's more interested in Anna on a personal level, and Anna will have decide if her head and her heart are on the same page when it comes to her interest in him. And if that's not enough to deal with, Death keeps popping up at inopportune moments, and definitely not just for giggles. Anna's got more mysteries than she knows what to do with, and the few clues she has lead directly to the dark waters of Lake Erie and a bigger, more complicated magic than she's ever seen before - a magic she isn't sure she can handle.

6 parts Complete Mature

Sometimes a man has to do things himself. And when that happens, well, you're screwed because men are idiots. And I would know, since I'm the biggest fool of them all. Ditto Night here, and I just wanted to enjoy my little break from adventure and training when a damn girl shows up being chased by hunters. Naturally, I have to do something. Because what's worse than a stained conscience? A lot of things, but that's not the point. Now I must fight, which sucks since I just wanted to relax. But whatever. Let the hunt begin. A False King novella A big shoutout to @FallenTopics for the cover! It's amazing and everyone should go check out FallenTopics Graphic Shop!
