The Cursed Child: A Naissus Legend 1 (A Naissus Legend – The Novella Series)

By Markus Vasily Vikander

Welcome to Naissus, the Realm of the Twelve Tribes.

A cursed child. A frightened court. A knight sent to find the truth.

In the dark fantasy world of Naissus, Hussar knight Pawel is called when others are too afraid to face what lurks in the shadows. He has hunted demons, curses, and heretics across the North... but he has learned that human fear can be far more dangerous than any monster.

Now Pawel is summoned to Lublin, where the Duke's newborn daughter has been branded an omen of evil. A powerful priest claims the infant is cursed. The Duchess is ready to believe him. The court is already turning. And if Pawel fails, fear and fanaticism will condemn a helpless child before the truth can be known.

To save her, Pawel must uncover what is really happening inside a court poisoned by superstition, ambition, and religious zeal.

The Cursed Child is a gripping dark fantasy novella of mystery, faith, and cruelty: perfect for readers who love grimdark fantasy, medieval worlds, monster hunters, and morally complex heroes.
