El's Mystery

Favor Ezeokar Fantasy

A haunting tale of silence, legacy, and the secrets we were never meant to find.
Elora Quen has always felt out of place in Lunes; a quiet, sleepy town nestled between old woods and older superstitions. The kind of town where everyone knows your name, but no one ever really says what they’re thinking. Whispers travel faster than truth. And the truth about El’s past is the one thing no one will talk about.
At fourteen, El is no ordinary girl. Not because she tries to be different but because she simply is. She doesn’t fit the mold of Lunes’ perfectly normal teenagers. She walks alone, listens more than she speaks, and sees things others can’t explain. Things in reflections. In the woods. In her dreams. But none of that prepares her for the moment she finds a strange journal hidden beneath the floorboards of her grandmother’s attic. An attic that’s been locked for ten years, ever since her mother disappeared without a trace.
The journal isn’t just old. It’s impossibly old. The paper is brittle, stained with what looks like time and ash. Its pages are covered in strange symbols, haunting sketches of a girl who looks just like El… and cryptic entries written in a mix of languages that shouldn’t exist. The most chilling part? Her name is mentioned long before she was even born.
Suddenly, everything changes.
Her dreams intensify, no longer vague or symbolic, but terrifyingly real. She wakes up with mud on her feet. Mirrors seem to move on their own. A mysterious figure in a cloak watches her from the tree line behind her school. Then a classmate goes missing vanishing just as suddenly as her mother did years ago.
And then, the Neil breaks.
A secret society known only as The Neil reveals themselves—watchers, protectors, and keepers of a delicate balance between what is real and what should remain hidden.
They tell her the truth: Lunes is not an ordinary town. It never was. It’s built on an ancient breach, a thin place where the fabric between worlds is weak, where old things drift through, things that shouldn’t exist in the daylight.
And El? She’s not just a girl with strange dreams.
She’s a key.
The last in a bloodline meant to either restore the balance or destroy it.
But El never asked for any of this. She just wanted to know what happened to her mother. She just wanted to fit in. Instead, she’s thrust into a race against time to decode the journal, solve the riddle of her mother’s vanishing, and confront a force that calls itself “The Turning” a darkness that wants to erase everything that holds light.
As the town unravels and the people she loves begin to fall under a strange, dreamlike spell, El must make an impossible choice:
Abandon the path she was never meant to walk, or follow the mystery that has always been waiting for her.
But in Lunes, nothing is ever truly forgotten. And sometimes, the past doesn’t stay buried, it waits.
What Awaits in El’s Mystery is a Town with Two Faces, Lunes seems peaceful, but beneath its surface lies a web of forgotten truths, strange disappearances, and secrets passed from one silent generation to the next.
A Journal from the Past because the mysterious book leads El on a journey across time, dreams, and memories that aren’t hers but somehow, belong to her.
A Girl Searching for Answers, Elora isn’t a hero. She’s scared. Angry. Hurt. But her courage lies in her curiosity, and her strength in refusing to let fear define her.
“The Turning” is not a monster. It’s not a person. It’s an ancient force subtle, seductive, and impossible to fully grasp. But once it finds you, it doesn’t let go.
A Legacy El didn’t Ask For. El uncovers the truth about her family and herself, she must decide whether to embrace the role fate has carved for her or shatter the cycle entirely.
El’s Mystery isn’t just a story about supernatural suspense, it’s a reflection on what it means to feel different, to seek belonging in a world that misunderstands you and to carry wounds that don’t always show. It explores memory, trauma, inherited silence, and the cost of knowing too much too soon.
This is not a tale of instant magic or easy answers. El’s Mystery is a slow descent into a truth wrapped in riddles, where fantasy bleeds into reality and the past echoes through every whispered word.
The question isn’t just “What happened to Elora’s mother?”
It’s “What is El willing to become to find the truth?
Some answers were never meant to be found. But some mysteries… find you anyway.
El’s Mystery is a gripping, slow-burning psychological fantasy layered with suspense, secrets, and supernatural tension. At its heart is a coming-of-age journey about identity, memory, and the cost of uncovering buried truths. It weaves dreamlike horror with grief, love, and the fear of the unknown.
If you loved the haunting atmosphere of Stranger Things, the layered secrets of The Lunes Cycle, or the eerie, emotional pull of Coraline, El’s Mystery will pull you deep into a world where no one is as they seems...
