About The Book

The first book of the series.

She was chosen to uphold balance.
But the prophecy was a lie.

And the truth will shatter not just her world--but everything you thought you understood about loyalty, legacy, and fate itself. In a world where magic is meant to be balanced or destroyed, The Nixian Chronicles: The Awakening begins a character-driven dark fantasy saga that flips the script on everything you expect from chosen one narratives.

This is not a story about saving the world.
It’s about the price of obedience, the illusion of destiny, and the betrayals that come cloaked in light. It’s about heroes who understand that sometimes, ruthlessness is mercy--and that mercy can be the cruelest weapon of all. Featuring morally gray characters shaped by survival--not purity--this emotionally immersive novel weaves prophecy, control, betrayal, and awakening into a slow-burning unraveling of everything sacred.

If you’ve ever questioned the stories you were told... If you’ve ever felt like the villain in someone else’s legend... If you crave fantasy that haunts, lingers, and remembers you back... Then this is the book you didn’t know you needed.
