The Priesthood: The Price of Power

Goendri
In the Book of the Heralds, it is written what a priest must give to gain power: "Forget joy; understand what power brings. Power brings misery, and to understand what misery is, one has to forget all joy. Understand this, human, for those who are powerful should carry the pain of the living on their shoulders and the pain of the dead in their hearts. So those who have no power can live with joy." Join Kanrel on his quest to find the truth of the mysteries that he is presented with: the Angels and the Otherkind; what is their connection; and why do the Angels prophesy of a coming war, an ascension of the Otherkind, and the destruction of humanity by the will of the Betrayed? Follow him as he starts as a novice and becomes a fully-fledged priest while vowing to carry the burden of power for the sake of the weak, but all comes with a cost... Forget joy. - - - What to expect: The story is a bit slow, mainly focusing on thoughts, different ideas, and feelings that the main character, Kanrel, experiences in his life. So do not expect many action sequences. FYI, this story was first posted on to another site/app by me. I would link it here as proof, but I am not sure if it is okay to link to another site that offers a similar service as does WebNovel. Also, the picture in the book cover is generated via the AI option here.

Shadow Monarch in Hogwarts.

Join me in my patreon for extra chapters: Patreon.com/Doflamingo4 Synopsis: Shadowquest: A Symphony of Fate When Adam Sainz dies, he expects oblivion. Instead, he wakes in an endless void before a cosmic voice that demands judgment. His sentence? To be thrust into worlds of his choosing, under a system of quests and punishments that will test his mind, soul, and morality. But there’s a catch: with every rise in power, he’ll face the wrath of ancient Greek gods—and perhaps entities far older and darker still. Choosing the familiar yet perilous magic of Hogwarts as his first battleground, Adam awakens as a Slytherin student in a world both dazzling and dangerous. But nothing fits. Whispers of forgotten prophecies ripple through stone corridors. Shadows slither where light cannot reach. The castle he admired from afar now brims with secrets that could shatter the wizarding world—and him along with it. A sarcastic partnership with Draco Malfoy, disastrous spells gone awry, and an unexpected spark with Hermione Granger leave Adam teetering between comedy and chaos. Yet behind every laugh lies the growing certainty that he was sent here for more than mere survival. As he hunts forbidden knowledge and glimpses cracks in reality, Adam discovers that Voldemort’s return might be only the beginning—and that cosmic forces, once dormant, are stirring awake. The game has begun. The shadows are watching. And Adam Sainz must decide: Will he remain a pawn in gods’ designs… or seize the power to judge worlds himself? --- SUPPORT ME IN PATREON FOR EXTRA CHAPTERS : Patreon.com/Doflamingo4
