Witches of Mellgrah

Volume 2 ongoing! Follow to get updated when new chapters drop. 🜺🜺🜺🜺 After a series of tragedies, Maya led a lonely life rotting in their aftermath. A near-death experience with a lightning strike jolted her awake, and her reality began twisting with surreal occurrences. Then came a sudden knock at her door. Her suffering had granted her power. Elements wanted her. A hidden world of magic awaited her. Mellgrah was a sanctuary where witches and magic had escaped long ago. She was offered a place at a prestigious academy for young mages. It would be her salvation—her chance to begin life anew. The opportunity felt like her last saving grace, and she seized it. To escape her miserable reality, Maya stepped into a fantasy world like the stories she'd chosen to live within. But the painted front quickly began to crack, and the promised land revealed its ugly side. Return was impossible. Inspired by so many tales of destined heroes, Maya must choose whether to accept the burden of becoming one in a world that buries its saviours—or drown in the darkness of its secrets. 🜺🜺🜺🜺 What to expect: 🜙 Dark fantasy woven with mystery, magic, complex characters, and flawed destinies🜙 A slow burn that begins in loss and grows toward reckoning🜙 A grounded world layered with secrets waiting to be uncovered🜙 Imperfect souls who can change for the better—or for the worse🜙 A heroine who begins her journey in pieces and grows into someone ready to challenge even gods🜙 Wounds, loss, and manipulation cut by friendship, found family, and self-discovery—with moments of humour, academy drama, tricky romance, and a touch of warmth🜙 When the action hits, it can get brutal *tragedy tag is due to the tragic beginning. The story is not a classic tragedy and has plenty of light moments 🜺🜺🜺🜺 ⩺ Feel free to say hi in the comments.
