Some stories begin with heroes chosen by prophecy.
This isn’t one of them.
Elira has round ears in a world of pointed ones. For nearly 350 moons, she has been the wrong shape for everything. The Seer’s words have haunted her since childhood:
“She does not belong. No thread for her in the loom of destiny.”
But the Seer was wrong. Elira does have a thread, one spun by gods who see her not as a halfling, but as the perfect vessel for their power.
Stolen Memories, Burning Truths
Silver wings. Storm-grey eyes. Whispers of a meadow she doesn’t remember standing in.
Her life has always been a puzzle of half-forgotten moments, but some memories weren’t lost.
They were stolen.
Her shapeshifting unicorn guardian, Iridelle, has spent decades weaving lies to keep her safe. Lies that hide the truth: Elira’s mixed blood doesn’t make her an outcast.
It makes her dangerous.
Because inside her chest, the Hollow Flame burns, a power strong enough to unmake the world.
Gods, Lies, and Choices That Burn
The Shadow Mother wants to bind her to flame. Nytheran wants to shatter her soul. Both want her body as the cage for a god’s essence.
The village whispers Round Ears like a curse. The elders pretend she’s already dead.
They don’t realise they’re right to be afraid.
Elira isn’t just different.
She’s the spark that could set the realm on fire.
A Story of Love, Lies, and Apocalypse
This is not just fantasy.
It’s about what it costs to survive when the world tells you that you shouldn’t exist.
It’s about a starfire romance that burns too bright to last.
It’s about stolen choices, fragile truths, and the terrible price of destiny.
The Hollow Flame series is coming.
