Whispers: The Burning Mark

Cover Art by - Kanishka Rangra (x.com/gungun187702) For hundreds of years, the people of Eternity feared the same story. A story not written in books, but carried through whispers. Quiet voices passed from one generation to another. Most believed it was only a myth created to frighten children and silence curiosity. Others believed the whispers were real.They spoke of four forgotten realms.Four ancient houses.And languages that once held powers beyond imagination.But those languages disappeared long ago.No one knew why. No one knew how.And no one dared to search for them anymore.In the peaceful realm of Eternity lives a boy named Aren. A quiet boy with no family, no importance, and no place in the world. While others laugh at old tales, Aren cannot ignore them. The whispers seem louder around him somehow… almost as if they are calling his name.Then one day, he witnesses something impossible.A man vanishes before his eyes after speaking strange words no one should know. And from that moment, Aren's curiosity pulls him toward secrets buried far beyond Eternity. Secrets connected to forgotten realms, forbidden languages… and a mark hidden behind his neck.Some whispers are meant to guide people.Others are meant to warn them.Aren does not yet know the difference.
