Preview Sample: The First Chapter of The Magic of Hallowvale
The fog clung to the outskirts of Hallowvale like a shroud, thick and heavy, obscuring the village from view. Beyond the shadows of the twisted trees, three cloaked figures emerged, their movements silent, deliberate. They stood at the edge of the village, just outside the reach of the lanterns that lined the narrow streets, as though waiting for the right moment to enter.
“The village is quiet,” the tallest of the three finally whispered. His voice was low, measured, with an edge of unease. “But the magic… it’s older than I expected. Can you feel it?”
The second figure, smaller and cloaked in deep crimson, narrowed their eyes, scanning the fog. "I feel it," they murmured, their voice soft yet sharp. "But it’s not like the others. It’s woven into the very bones of this place. Older than the last five villages combined."
The third figure, standing slightly apart, folded their arms, their eyes fixed on the village’s distant clock tower, barely visible through the mist. "It’s not just old," they said, their tone cold and analytical. "It’s different. Unstable. We’re walking into something we don’t fully understand."
The three stood in silence, the weight of their mission hanging between them. They had collected powerful magics before—artifacts, spells, forbidden knowledge—but Hallowvale was different. The village was ancient, and the magic it held was unlike anything they had encountered. It wasn’t just an artifact or a spell waiting to be claimed. It was something far more complex. Something that could reshape their understanding of magic itself.
"If we succeed here," the tallest figure said, breaking the silence, "we will have control over a magic older than any we’ve ever collected. But if we fail—"
"We won’t fail," the second figure interrupted, their tone casual, almost dismissive. "We’ve never failed before. We’ve dealt with ancient magics, forbidden spells, curses, and enchantments. This is no different."
The third figure glanced at them, their expression unreadable beneath the shadows of their hood. "It’s different," they repeated quietly. "We’ve dealt with objects. Enchanted items. Spells that can be broken or harnessed. But this... this is woven into the land. The heart of this village isn’t just something we can take. It’s alive."
The second figure smiled, though there was no warmth in it. "Alive or not, it’s still magic. And magic can be controlled."
The tallest figure remained silent, his sharp eyes fixed on the distant village. He knew better than to be overconfident. They had collected magic from the far corners of the world, but Hallowvale was different. The stories of the village spoke of a heart buried deep beneath the streets, a magic so old that even even those who claimed to know its history spoke only in half-truths and myths.
