The cochineal are Ketsuri’s people and as their god, their blood is her right

Everybody wants to be free from daily life, but when faced with the opportunity to achieve complete freedom, most crumble under the fear of their own limitlessness and yearn to go back to a restricted, comfortable life.... more>>

Some people, on the other hand, rise to the occasion and do everything in their power to reach freedom. Among these types of individuals, there is Akir, a psychologically tormented young man with an unusual history. After he is transported into a mysterious construct called the Ruins, he starts a ruthless journey towards true freedom, which he believes will bring him happiness.

Things don't go according to plan, though, as the trials he is put through start making him question his morality and the opinions he lives by. Eventually, his identity comes into question, and he starts to lose himself, his life goals threatening to fade into nothingness.

_Content Warning_
* Dubcon so dubious that noncon might be more accurate.
* Transphobia (plus some homophobia and mild racism, for the full set) - and on the part of the MC too. She gets better, btw.
* Blood. It is a vampire story, but it bears saying. These are not, like, emotional vampires.
* Threats of torture.
* Puppyplay. <<less

After coming to terms that staying still and grieving won't do her friend any good, Ellie goes out and tries to survive the wilderness while looking for help, only strange things seem to be happening to her.

On the other side of the woods, a group of friends comes together to find their friend Selicia, and the person she was hanging out with.

And just when they find a clue to where Selicia and Ellie went, they realize they are being hunted by something not human, and something only from myths and legends. A Wendigo stands in their way of finding the truth of what happened to Ellie and Selicia.

Title: The Parvian Sun

Listen, for I have foreseen a future dark and drear,
When the heavens weep and the earth reeks with fear,

A time when the blood soils the skies and Rain paints the land red,
When the Parvian sun rises, filling all with dread.

A time when sorrow and despair descend upon this land,
The time of the sun's fiery glare bringing our world to its end,

We cowered, we shrivelled, our hearts filled with woe,
We cry for a saviour, hiding from the evil's glow.

Mortal beings, take heed of my words and be prepared,
For the reckoning is near as fate had declared,

Ready thyself and bolster for the incoming storm,
And pray that you shall weather it with a heart that's warm,

For the future is bleak, and the end is in sight,
We beg for a being to stop the malevolent light.

The blood soils the skies and Rain paints the land red,
The Parvian sun rises, filling all with dread.
