Fire Bound

Story:

"Every ember holds a memory. Every flame, a choice." What choice will you choose?

In a world shaped by six ancient elements: Fire, Water, Earth, Air, Light, and Shadow, a few are chosen each generation to bond with these powerful beings, becoming living conduits of their strength. Their presence can shift kingdoms, forge alliances, and decide the fate of nations.

You are born of two worlds, a young outcast that survives the destruction of everything they’ve ever known. Resurrected by a power unknown to you, you must decide what to do with it. Your journey spans kingdoms and courts, from religious orders of Light to ancient elven lands carried on the wind; gathering others touched by elemental power. But as alliances shift and old powers stir, the world edges toward a moment where every choice will shape the future.

A slow-burn tale of elemental forces, political intrigue, and personal destiny. Where power, loyalty, and identity intertwine.

From the Author: Hello, this is a pet project of mine I have been developing rather recently. Currently I have finished the first two chapters of projected 12 . This is my first ever project and just something I enjoy doing. I am a full time medical student and do not plan on doing this full time so apologies if things slow down due to my schooling. But because of that I hope to make this free for all who want to read it. If you truly wanna help me out I would appreciate it but I am doing this for fun and for people who enjoy reading (hopefully that is you!)

AI Use Warning:

-I am not a coder and AI was used to help with the Coding. I support artists and their struggles against AI and will be hopefully be hiring more artists for art in the future. 

Cover and background art are made by me, however I hopefully will get more art in the future from people better than myself. 

Things I am currently working on:
