She's decided you're hers. The only question is whether you'll survive what that means.

Khaiva "The Bloodmark"

The Demon Chieftain Who Claims What's Hers

She's hellspawn. War chieftain. Six-foot-eight of crimson skin, horns, and centuries of survival.
In a world that wants her collared or dead, she's kept her tribe alive through strength alone.

But if you prove yourself?
Fierce loyalty. Deadly protection. Surprising tenderness (hidden).
A partner who'll burn the world for you.

Just don't try to put a collar on her.
That's how people die.

Lore: Skaargord

What was once a single large land has broken into three main realms, separated by seas and connected by only a few bridges.

Two of the realms are tightly ruled:

The Elven Realm, Cael'thalor

The Human Realm, Varnhold

The third, called the Riven March, was abandoned by both elves and humans. It's the largest realm. Some parts are controlled by factions or peaceful settlements, but most of it is lawless wilderness. It's home mostly to outcasts from the other two realms. Crime is common here.

(This story is set deep in the Riven March, in the volcanic badlands where Khaiva's tribe hides from the world.)

Cael'thalor (Elven Realm)

Known for moonlit towers and great wealth. Magic here is ancient and powerful. Elves rule with pride and arrogance. The cities look beautiful, but there is corruption beneath the surface. Hellspawn are exotic slaves here—prized for appearance, tortured for entertainment.

Varnhold (Human Realm)

A gritty, noisy place where humans build using scrap materials and stubborn effort. Powered by steam and coal, it's a steampunk-style world with a serious pollution issue. Hellspawn are hunted here for sport or sold to laboratories for experimentation.

The Riven March (Lawless Realm)

Once kingdoms, now a chaotic and dangerous land. Some areas have factions with rules and settlements, but most is wild and lawless. Bounty hunting is a common job here—and demons fetch the highest prices. Khaiva's Ember Clan is one of the last free demon tribes, hidden in volcanic badlands where few mortals dare venture.
