[Currently undergoing severe revision of the chapters to ensure the best content is put out.] A grimdark progression fantasy with slow-burn (but worth it) romance. Hidden Authority, one that drove the essence of the world to the brink of despair. Conquest of nations, shedding of innocent blood, declaring peace amidst terrorizing madness.  'Crownless' is a story that follows Emory Vaughan, a boy born into a country riddled with wars, political turmoil, and civil unrest.  Thousands of murders happen every day. Why? Because the balance of the world shifted... into something no one could imagine. When just an infant, young Emory was present during a supernatural incident, one that left him forced to recite one of the Nine Blasphemous Chronicles, cursed scriptures that grant powers once recited. The deeper into the Chronicles lineage you recite, the stronger power you get in return.  But nothing is without consequence in this wretched world.  Emory will begin to understand the true meaning of that statement after he discovers the atrocities hidden in the world he once thought he had a grasp on.  If you've read until here, why not give the Prologue chapters a try? Hopefully they resonate with you, and make it so the 'next' button leaves your finger twitching! [Currently Cross-posting on Royal Road too]
