Hey guys, I recently started writing a dark fantasy web novel, and I'd love some feedback!

Recommendation: asking

Hey everyone,

​I’ve been working on a dark fantasy web novel called Conceptual Aura: Rising from the Pits, and I finally plucked up the courage to start sharing it online.

​It’s set in a pretty brutal underground scrap market called "The Depths." The story follows two main characters, Blake and Kane, who are just trying to survive while preparing for the Guardian Exam—a deadly trial that’s their only ticket out of the gutter.

​Things get chaotic pretty fast because they only have a year to train, their dormant aura powers are unpredictable, and the elite up above are already sending assassins ("Sweepers") to pick off pit-dwellers before the exam even starts.

​If you like stories with gritty survival, dual MCs (one cold and calculating, the other with a dark dormant power), unique aura magic, and pre-exam rivalries, I think you might enjoy it!

​I’m dropping chapters for free right now (planning to have at least 15 chapters completely free for everyone to read).

​I’d honestly love to hear your thoughts or any feedback from fellow fantasy fans. Thanks for checking it out!
