Athanasia

There are situations disguised as blessings that turn people's world upside-down, spiralling down uncontrolled, sinking to the point of no return. Sometimes greediness wormed its way deeper than we anticipated, yet people want time to freeze, to savour a happy moment just a little bit longer.

On the other hand, her life was handled too cruelly and suffered unimaginable pain and losses. The pain was her constant companion that guided her to move forward. It was pain that taught her that the world is cruel and embracing darkness is the only way to live, for it will always be true. A rarity in the world she is now.

Emotions are fickle things and in this place, there is no room for it.

Life in exchange for peace and slippery freedom. Blood for the sake of principles.

She is an unknown pawn in the game of chess that will be used to destroy the enemy. She is the black horse silently tearing its way into the lion's den.


Will she prevail? Or is her darkness within becomes her undoing?


A battle of dominance is brewing. There is no time to hesitate as the enemy sets their eyes on her, waiting to strike at her most vulnerable.
