Day 20 of #fantasyindiesjune is pet photos bc I’ve had a rough couple days and don’t really have anything new from #theheartofnuval
Anyway this is Onyx 🥹
#theheartofnuval
#fantasyindiesjune day 19!
Hayden is not a fate kind of guy. He believes in himself, what he can do, and his capabilities to make whatever he wants to happen happen. His life is not mapped out for him, he makes it that way. #theheartofnuval
Day 17 of #fantasyindiesjune!
Magic. But that “magic” is kind of tied to a genetic system (think the quirks in MHA) but it all stems back to one individual with magic. Hayden, personally, prefers the more factual version and doesn’t quite believe the origin tale of Nuvali “magic” #theheartofnuval
Day 16: very simply, NOT lucky at all 😅. The author is an appreciator of fine angst #fantasyindiesjune #theheartofnuval
Day 15 of #fantasyindiesjune! So, the only father(s) really present in #theheartofnuval is that of one character I haven’t talked about much, named Arik, and Arik’s grandfather is mentioned and has a big role in the story but he doesn’t really become present until much later
Day 14 of #fantasyindiesjune is a lesson NOT to mess with Holland when they’re workin 😂 #theheartofnuval
#FantasyIndiesJune Day 12!
If Hayden could go back in time, he would figure out what started the war and prevent it (kinda like what he does in #theheartofnuval except he works to end it instead of prevention 😉)
Day 11 of #fantasyindiesjune!
(Aside from anything to do with a certain someone 👀), Hayden enjoys brushing up on his fighting skills. He enjoys history and learning about Terran vehicles (Nuvali don’t drive but he would like to be able to if not for, ya know, the war 🙃). #theheartofnuval
Day 10 of #fantasyindiesjune!
Hayden would NOT be a happy camper, but he would tough it out because as long as it’s not killin him, the man’s probably got work to do!
#theheartofnuval
Day 9 (I had a big event yesterday!) of #FantasyIndiesJune!
Here is my standing vision board for #theheartofnuval! 🩵

Day 8 of #FantasyIndiesJune!
Hayden, aside from the blatantly obvious answer of his feelings for a certain someone 👀😅, would definitely be afraid of facing the reality of what happened on a certain mission that will be talked about in #theheartofnuval (maybe a snippet Saturday 🤷♀️)
Day 7 of #FantasyIndiesJune! A snippet from #TheHeartofNuval featuring Holland AND Hayden using “magic” together ☺️
I’m technically a lil late but IDC here’s day 5 of #FantasyIndiesJune!
Hayden (the MC of #TheHeartofNuval), has a mentor in his father, as well as a key instructor at the Academy who has a few scenes in the book 🙂.
Day 3 of #FantasyIndiesJune is just gonna go more in depth on the magic system in #theheartofnuval bc lil overachiever Lizzy didn’t see Day 3 and did it yesterday 🙃 so enjoy!
Day 2 of #FantasyIndiesJune, the Heart of Nuval is…a magic system! (Sort of). There’s a teensy bit of a scientific/biological aspect to it. The energy from Nuvali-blooded beings using their magic emits Sapphire into the air, and their bodies cannot withstand Onyx! #theheartofnuval #pride #lgbtq
Day 20 of #FantasyIndiesFebruary (I forgot, I had a social event 😅)
Hayden: a hefty mix of Emotions and Logic, I’d call it about a 60-40 split. Holland: I’d say the logic outweighs the emotions but the emotions tend to outweigh the morals.
#TheHeartofNuval
Comp. titles for #TheHeartofNuval? Well I’ve always said it’s sorta like X-Men. Id say a teensy bit like The Mortal Instruments or Shannara Chronicles. #fantasyindiesfebruary
Day 17 of #FantasyIndiesFebruary iiiis actually the scene im writing right now, but let’s just say, Holland is NOT having a fun time 👀 #TheHeartofNuval
#FantasyIndiesFebruary Day 15 is awkward in the sense of “are you an idiot this is clearly not a good thing” 😂 From chapter 1 of #TheHeartofNuval
14’s Free Friday is just a cool scene I recently wrote in #TheHeartofNuval. I won’t say who speaks first bc that’s a spoiler, but 2nd is Holland. “Hitra” (he-truh), is Nuvali for “traitorous scum” 😂
Day 13: Both Holland’s and Hayden’s best friends are revealed to be dead (the life of a soldier, but also this is such a minor detail i don’t consider it a spoiler). Hayden does consider Cade a very good friend tho. #TheHeartofNuval
Catching up on the days of #FantasyIndies #FantasyIndiesFebruary I missed bc I’ve been exhausted the last few days.
Day 12 is easy. Holland isn’t really doing love right how (that’ll make more sense l8r!) Hayden’s having his lil Bi-awakening in the first book (my slow burn king) 😅 #TheHeartofNuval
#FantasyIndies #FantasyIndiesFebryary Day 11!
Between Cade and Holland in chapter 2 of #TheHeartofNuval
#FantasyIndies #FantasyIndiesFebruary day 9!
The main character of the Nuval series overall is Hayden, whose love interest is Christopher (Liam if you were here before I changed that name 😅). They’re pretty slow burn in the 1st book tho.
#TheHeartofNuval
#FantasyIndies #FantasyIndiesFebruary Saturday Snippet from chapter 11 of #TheHeartofNuval that relates to “discovery”
#FantasyIndies #FantasyIndiesFebruary day 5!
A nice picnic (for Hayden and *eventually to be renamed Liam AKA my primary #TheHeartofNuval pairing! Definitely picnic people. Or like stargazing. Stargazing 100% just peacefully BEING. 😌
#fantasyindies #fantasyindiesfebruary day 4!
So the primary “couple”/pairing in #TheHeartofNuval is Holland/Cade. However I use the term couple LOOSELY. 😂 (1/2)
Day 1 of #FantasyIndiesFebruary #FantasyIndies
My name is Lizzy, and my WIP is a Fantasy Novel called “The Heart of Nuval” (New-Vol) 🙂💙 #TheHeartofNuval
