She accepts, only to find that this world treats magic users the same way hers did— by hunting them down for heresy.</p> <p>My name is MELAS?! Like... Salem spelt backwards? Oh my God, and my mother is a Witch. I am SO going to be burned at the stake!</p> <p>Melas is a story about action, adventure, and most importantly, survival in a world that isn't always kind to the MC. It's a slow progression fic, and although it is NOT a SoL/fluff story, IMO it's NOT a Grimdark fantasy either; in fact, I'd be inclined to believe it's closer to the opposite, although sometimes 'dark' aspects of the world will be explored within the story. However, I've tagged it as Grimdark since that apparently fits RR's definition of the Grimdark tag. It takes some inspiration from the real life relationship between Witches and religion, involving a setting that is closer to the period of an industrializing world rather than the typical medieval fantasy-type setting.</p> <p>It isn't the pinnacle of writing, nor does it pretend to be anything truly novel: I'm simply writing what I want to write.</p> <p>Book 1 (Rewritten, Completed): Chapters 1-38</p> <p>Book 2 (Ongoing): Chapter 39-??</p> <p>Covert art by Boboplushie (WARNING SLIGHTLY NSFW)</p> <p>This is a rewrite of the original of the same name. I do not recommend reading the original as the original is discontinued and this version is far superior.</p> <p>Disclaimer: The "Strong Lead" tag means "Weak-to-Strong", and not immediately strong. If you're looking for an immediate Strong Lead, then this story isn't for you.</p>
