Corrupt Shadows Novels & Stories

"Look there. The base of that tower. The crystal seems... darkened, almost corrupted." Malachi squinted, trying to discern the details. "It's spreading, like an infection. But what could corrupt such a pure realm?" Liora, hearing our whispers, turned her gaze towards the afflicted spire. A ripple of sadness passed through her luminescent form. "The shadow you see is the reason your destinies and ours have intertwined. The Crystalline Realm is under siege, not by an external enemy, but by a darkness from within." Isolde, her voice filled with concern, inquired, "What caused this? Is it related to the Weaver?"

I caught her as she fell, her corrupted wings flickering, fading. "Always protecting you," she gasped, blood bubbling on her lips. "Even when I hated you. Could never... stop... protecting..." The shadow poison spread through her veins like black lightning, visible under her skin. But instead of killing her instantly, it met her corrupted power and... stopped. They fought each other, poison versus corruption, keeping her alive but in agony. "We need a healer," Derek said, but we all knew the truth. No healer could fix this. Shadow poison had no cure, and mixed with her already unstable manifestation...

How many more dark shadows would darken my life? “I can’t believe you didn’t give up your firm for my happiness. This man is a monster,” I screamed at her as loud as I could after biting Kevin. I wished I had run away, but he quickly grabbed my hand. I thought he was going to get mad, but he started laughing sadistically. He was enjoying our argument, our misery. I didn’t think there were such people in the world. I didn’t realize that the man I had sworn my love to at the altar was, in fact, a man without scruples, without a heart. He was actually a monster. He physically blocked me, but that wasn’t the worst of it. Emotionally, I was a wreck. Everything I had heard so far was swirling arou

I was pinned down but, I would fight with everything in me. I reached out to Rudolph through my mind and gave a mental image of everything. I knew now why I felt so connected to him. It had nothing to do with me, yet it felt like it had everything to do with me. I was his eternal soulmate. We were Shadows of the night passing each other, torn apart by death but, meant for each other by fate. Eternal soulmates, yet shadows in the dark. I reached for Rudolph with everything in me. I could almost see him in the field of flowers. He reached for me. I felt myself fading. Edgar must have figured out our connection in my mind cause he screamed.

Obstacles that could be overcome, but how? Matthias stood still and watched as she continued down the path and noticed that she turned around again, seeking one last glance at him before she disappeared from view. He knew right then and there that he needed to win her over and quickly. He needed a plan to win her over. Immediately! There was no time to waste! Time was of the essence. But how? Pure and simple, manipulation. Manipulation. Reader Notes: Welcome to the world of Das Schatten, aka, the Shadows. The Schatten can turn into shadows and travel through walls and objects, unless they are bound with silver chains.

she asked, and Alex gave a soft laugh. She sensed humour from him, and annoyance from Lukas, but both were almost drowned out by their wariness, and no small amount of fear. Lukas sighed softly, "Shadows can merge with other shadows, becoming part of them," he said, his voice still near a whisper, "And can move through them, from one to another, with little resistance."

Amelia said. "I'm not saying....." Amelia didn't wait for me to finish before she interrupted me. "I can just book an Uber and walk outside myself if you insist," Amelia said. "You will get lost. Oh, you think I go outside and come back inside with an ordinary eye, right? This forest rotates around itself. You can take the path at the back of the house towards the tarred road and come back through the front path," I said, trying to scare her off and she fell for it immediately with the way she held my clothes.

Kruz said. “I think only my dad knows, well and me, who our Shadows are.” Ali stated. “Daniel, do you have any Shadows in your pack?” Dakota asked. “Aside from Amy?” He asked with a snicker. “Nope, not that I’ve seen.” He lightly laughed. “I don’t think I would even know how to identify a possible Shadow.” He admitted. “Amy can help you with that when she gets there.” Kasper said, looking at Amy. “She’ll let us know if anyone shows potential.” Kyde told them.

Ava placed the reason too late. “Penny, no!” It’s too late now; she heard Passerini’s voice in her head. She couldn’t stop Penny as she charged towards the source of the cold spot. A shadow golem. The worst of the worst. At the same time, another horde of shadows came at Ava, cutting her off from Penny, both locked in a fight for their lives. These shadows were stronger.

"Focus. Stay rooted. Predict its next move." She adjusted her stance, her feet shifting to maintain her balance as the shadow loomed over her. Each clash of their blades sent vibrations up her arms, but she stood her ground, her strikes growing more confident with each passing moment. The shadow swung high, and Bella swiftly ducked, using the momentum to spin and strike at its side. Her blade connected, causing the shadow to stagger, its form flickering like a candle in the wind. A triumphant grin spread across my face as I couldn't help but exclaim, "Yes! That's it! Use its aggression against it!"
