The Nixian Chronicles: Fate's Deception (Book 2 of 2)

What if fate kept rewriting your life until you broke?

Fate’s Deception is a dark epic fantasy sequel that plunges deeper into psychological warfare, morally gray choices, and the cost of tearing down a rigged prophecy.

Lyara Valen thought breaking an ancient curse would finally let her breathe.
Instead, a living-shadow drags her through a labyrinth of horrors—and the Architect of Prophecy, the being who scripts destiny, steals what’s left of her freedom. Now she’s hurled across splintered realities, each one a cage: some spun from perfect love, others dripping with nightmare. Break the dream and she wakes in another trap; yield, and she loses herself forever.

Back in the waking world, her found family refuses to let her vanish:

* Siren-song mages gamble with forbidden echoes.

* Mirrors are sharpened into weapons by a furious commander.

* Each sacrifice cuts deeper, yet still falls short of breaking fate’s grip.

Because the Architect has already rigged the board. Every heartbeat tightens an invisible noose around Lyara’s soul. To escape, she must decide which illusion to shatter and which piece of herself to sacrifice, guided only by an unseen ally whose kindness hides razor secrets.

Power saved her once.
This time it may rewrite her—line by line—before she can strike back.

Dark, lyrical, and emotionally charged, Fate’s Deception is Book 2 of a sweeping dark epic fantasy saga of fractured legacies, haunted ruins, and the price of rewriting fate, for readers who want psychologically immersive fantasy with morally ambiguous protagonists and no easy answers.

The book features a mystical healing tune—heard exactly as the characters hear it. A rare moment where the world of The Nixian Chronicles sings back.

Shatter the illusion. Bring down the system.

DISCLAIMER
This series deals in trauma, manipulation, moral grayness, and hard‑won growth.
It is not a love story.
It’s a reckoning.
It is dark fantasy for readers who would rather face uncomfortable truths than tidy heroics.
No soft landings. No easy answers.
Just a descent into betrayal, prophecy, and survival—
a story that mirrors life, where pain doesn’t wait its turn, and growth isn’t linear.
Moments of levity, wit, and banter exist—but they’re survival mechanisms or weapons.
The illusion of having it all figured out? It shatters.

The pacing is intentional—early answers are not resolution, but misdirection. Every thread, in each book is planted for a reason and some are untangled in later installments. If you blink, you’ll miss the truth hiding beneath the chaos.

If you crave stories that twist the knife and don’t let go...
Welcome to The Nixian Chronicles.
