Cursed Bloodline Rise of the Mage Heir

Prologue

"In the year of the Crimson Eclipse, the sky bled fire and the oceans whispered the names of the dead."

Cursed Bloodline: Rise of the Mage Heir – Volume I: Fire Reawakens

Long ago, before steel ruled kingdoms and gold corrupted men’s hearts, magic was law. Not taught — inherited. Not controlled — endured.

The House of Velmora once stood as the mightiest bloodline of mages in the known realms. Blessed with power older than the stars, cursed by a prophecy darker than death itself.

"When the last heir rises, so shall the darkness he was born to destroy — or command."

For centuries, the Mage Heir was thought lost — extinguished in the Great Purge, when kings slaughtered sorcerers and burned spellbooks like heresy. But a flame once kindled cannot be so easily snuffed.

Now, in the ashes of rebellion and beneath the shadow of a crumbling empire, the heir awakens — unaware of his lineage, hunted by those sworn to keep him buried.

And the curse?
It's no longer a whisper in forgotten scrolls.
It's alive.
It’s watching.

And it's waiting for him to choose.

🌍 World Map Overview: The Realms of Elyrion

Before the fall of stars and the silence of the gods, there was Elyrion — a vast and ancient land shaped by magic, war, and forgotten bloodlines. Four great realms rise and clash within its borders, each harboring secrets, power, and prophecy.

🏰 1 Cursed Bloodline: Rise of the Mage Heir – Volume I: Fire Reawakens

Capital: Gravenhold

·        Once the shining heart of magical alliances, Valenthore has turned its back on arcane arts. Ruled by iron-fisted monarchs, the realm now hunts mages and burns spellcraft as heresy.

·        Cold forests, crumbling castles, and silent rivers mark its frozen domain.

·        The Mage Heir was hidden here… raised among the very people sworn to kill him.

🌋 2. Kyrzak – The Realm of Fire and Iron

·        Capital: Volcarys

·        Forged in flame, Kyrzak is a brutal land of warriors and molten stone.

·        Its people worship war, despise magic, and live by the blade.

·        Towering mountains, active volcanoes, and fortress-cities carved into cliffs dominate the region.

·        Their armies thirst for conquest—and the extinction of all magic-born.

🌿 3. Eldara – The Hidden Domain of Ancient Magic

·        Capital: Myrelia

·        A veiled sanctuary of the old ways, Eldara is said to be unreachable by ordinary men.

·        Home to the once-mighty Velmora bloodline, this realm holds ancient trees that whisper spells and rivers that shimmer with enchantment.

·        After the Great Purge, its cities fell silent… but not dead.

·        Magic still breathes here, waiting for the heir to return.

❄️ 4. Nivarim – The Frozen North

·        Capital: Frostmere

·        A kingdom of silence and snow, isolated by blizzards and myth.

·        Rumors say the first curse was born beneath its icy cliffs.

·        Nivarim holds ruins untouched by time and beasts older than language.

·        Some believe the truth behind the Mage Heir’s prophecy sleeps in its frostbitten shadows.

⚔️ Key Locations Across Elyrion:

·        The Obsidian Tower: A black spire in the Ashlands, rumored to be the birthplace of sorcery.

·        The Hollow Gate: A shattered gate between worlds — life, death, and something beyond.

·        The Ashlands: Scorched earth where the last Mage War ended. Nothing grows here. Nothing forgets.

"Elyrion is not merely a world — it is a wound that never healed. And the heir is the blade meant to open it once more… or seal it forever."
