Hiya! Fyi this is just a rant/summary about my fanfiction that I’m currently working on
The Medoran Chronicles is such a critically underrated series, and if you haven’t read these books, I highly suggest you do :3
ɴᴏᴛᴇ** this contains spoilers to all 6 books (mainly Draekora and Graevale)

So, this story takes place a couple years after the events of Vardesia, the library has decided that Niyx deserves a second chance at life, granting him mortality.....
//
However in order to provide context to this story I gave a backstory (Aven's side) to Chapter 33, then I skewed from the cannon plot slightly to better fit this story :)

I wont contain any direct spoilers to what I have written in here however I will pitch to you my premise.
While Aven is a morally condemned person, I believe there was another force controlling him/ leading him down the wrong path- evident briefly in Kaldoras. So, this fic is a take on Aven, and therefore Niyx's side of the story, not disregarding Aven's callous, manipulative actions but rather providing further insight into his twisted views. In better words "what truly drove Aven into his cannibalistic, dangerous mindset?"
There is an underlying romance plot between Niyx and Aven, it is undeniable that their chemistry (especially in Kaldoras) was evident. However, like most fics, this will be a slowburn and not be the main premise of the story. I really want to focus on developing their new characters, as Niyx's shift from death to the living wasn't described, and Aven's sanity after being kept in the painting was barely mentioned.
I just want to warn people that a few themes within this fic may be grotesque and unsettling to some readers, so please tread lightly and take care of yourself ❤︎!
If you happen to read this, I always love constructive feedback on my writing or just little comments on what you think, I really appreciate it. I've written the first couple chapters and chapter 4 is well underway, it should be out within the next couple weeks, ahhhhh I'll type quicker !!!!

my favorite quote(s) ׂ╰┈➤
"Niyx’s fingers touched his own cheeks, the tips coming away wet. He couldn’t tell if it was sweat or tears, or ink. Either way. It was silver in the moonlight." -Chapter 1 . ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁˖ . ݁
"It’s often thought arrogance is taught, but Aven Dalmata is textbook evidence that an egotistical mindset can fester amongst anyone, it's discovered, not fostered." -Chapter 2 . ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁˖ . ݁ "Aven would go years before learning of what she, or rather it , did to him that night. And he never did learn her name." - Chapter 3 . ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁˖ . ݁ // ⋇⊶⊰❣⊱⊷⋇ ⋇⊶⊰❣⊱⊷⋇ //
