Who can Elara trust when everything she thought she knew begins to crumble?" Are you ready to uncover the lies beneath the surface? Who are the real people behind the masks? #StayTuned as we dive deeper into the silence." Daily updates with new chapters

In the deepest cavern below the world, the Blackbaast holds many Noble Houses. For Artemis of the Lunastre Family, Nobility is more of a curse than a blessing. If he weren't from such a prominent House, he could easily obscure his defect. He would have no need to keep the Spirit he contracted with a secret, and he certainly wouldn't have to fight for his own survival, spirited to a strange city of monsters by the whims of Fate. This is the story of many figures who are puzzle pieces of an inevitability, something long-fated, mysteries that scream their threats to emerge from their abyssal cavern. Shadows tremble in the depths, encompassed worlds obscuring the many dangerous secrets of history. Might they be unraveled, all ways of life would be threatened.

This is the tale of a Crownless Prince, of the Last of Lords. [+++] Cover by @lqbtae.
