Stellify-"to change or be changed into a star." For centuries, humans have hunted the trolls of the Sidral Mountains and forced them to petrify in daylight so they can harvest the prized stelliferite crystals in their heart. But Geode refuses to let anyone from her tribe be slaughtered ever again. Haunted by the death of her mother at the hands of human hunters, she vows to kill any who dare enter her territory. The attacks on the trolls only increase when Princess Seleni demands a magnificent bridal tiara made of stelliferite from her suitors. Yet when Geode finds the injured Prince Ivan the Younger in her woods, she forges an unlikely friendship with her first human. Together, Geode and Ivan must find a way to break this heinous tradition and avoid the traps of Captain Merek, the cunning human who hunted down Geode's mother and now schemes to win Princess Seleni's hand in marriage. *When I was a child, my mom encouraged me to write one short story and poem a week. Geode's story is my attempt to kindle some of that creative magic back in my life. Hope you enjoy!

[EDITING SOON - DRAFT for AUDIO] An epic fantasy tale of a young girl, without voice, rejected and lost in the mountains of a recovering post-apocalyptic world. Qello Orkin wants to survive to find her family alive, but alone, discovers a shift in dimensions has produced new sensitivities in all that is seen and felt. The people she hides from trade legends, and their gifts bring new adventures in magic and understanding of the animal and natural worlds. Follow along on iTunes, these chapters from "Yellowhair", in the Dragonfly Elf series, that the elves from Hole in the Woods have been busy sneaking out into the world for you to read and now also--to listen. Subscribe to receive notifications when each new podcast episode comes out at: http://storiesfromholeinthewoods.book2pod.com/ or on iTunes, Spotify, Stitcher and GooglePlay. Each chapter will be shared here on Wattpad, before the podcast episode is released. The human narrated version will hopefully be out in November, 2019. Meantime, be warned--being that they are not human--Teiira-neer and the elves might have a slightly different way of pronouncing words or reading the story. You may hear and see an ever so 'slightly' different version on Wattpad and in the audio podcast. Forgive this. Please help to write better stories, by sharing your positive help & warm feedback. Tell the elves what you love most in each of these chapters! Thank you for following Yellowhair, in her earliest adventures. Cheers ≈ Wezley

Levon Datevar never wanted to be a legend. He only wanted to survive. When tragedy tears his life apart, Lev is thrust into a world forged from stone, storm, and ancient law. A people who distrust him. Trials that test him. Secrets in the mountains older than memory. But he can't outrun the prophecy that clings to his name. Some whisper he's chosen. Others insist he's a threat. Most wish he'd never arrived. Now Lev faces an action-packed fight for survival-one that challenges everything he believes about courage, belonging, and justice. In a land where destiny is dangerous, Lev must decide who he is... before the world decides for him.
