Ashveil: What Bleeds Within

Anya survived the day her village was destroyed. At six years old, she lost her family, her arm, and her ordinary life to a monster that fell from a bleeding sky. She was saved by a woman named Cyra, who raised her in the wilds and taught her how to kill the things that prey on humanity. Now eighteen, Anya lives alone as a monster hunter, hiding a curse that feeds on blood and grants her unnatural strength at a terrible cost. Each hunt keeps her alive. Each one brings her closer to becoming something she fears. When Cyra resurfaces after years of silence, Anya is forced to run, not just from the woman who taught her everything, but from the past she never understood. As her body begins to betray her and the line between hunter and monster blurs, Anya must survive long enough to uncover the truth behind her curse… before it consumes her entirely.
