Between Fractures of Light 
Adult Romantic Portal FantasyPITCH

   The desolate world from Augusta’s dreams starts to blur into a chilling reality when a specter of swirling mist and shadows begins haunting her and kidnaps her childhood best friend, Theo. When the encroaching shadows come for her next, Augusta  is rescued by an impossibly familiar stranger with eyes of fire, and together they journey into a world consumed by Darkness, an entity that feeds on despair and rot. There, the shadows hold Theo—and the world—captive.

   As she begins to fall for the man guiding her through the starless land, the line between the two realities starts to fracture. Augusta must face who she truly is and the choice carved into fate long ago: sacrifice the world she’s only just come to understand (along with her best friend) or the love she’s finally found.

 What can you smell? Popcorn. What can you hear? The laughter of children, Christmas music. What can you taste? The cider in hand. What can you touch? The scarf around my neck. What can you see? The shadow in the shape of a person. 

   Augusta froze. 

   It hadn’t gone away. Instead, it only grew larger, more ominous. It rose in the night till it towered over the tents, the moon behind it blocked out by its mass. 
 
  A glimpse of tangled blond curls appeared in her periphery, light against the growing darkness. A hanging light exploded with a pop but no one reacted. Unease clawed at her in

It may not be able to free those doomed by the narrative but it can definitely help with the romance part 👀

@brfontenotwrites.bsky.socialSep 30, 2026, 10:53 PM

What if the real trial was the sun god we found along the way?
