On the planet TRAPPIST-1e, renamed ANASTASIA, 117 years away from Earth, the inhabitants are immortal now that the world's leader, Cirrus, an AI machine, solved all problems such as world hunger, economical crisis, diseases, etc. Amber Glane is trained to glean, or kill, her people. Does her path lead towards destruction, or towards something brighter? (This is a story featuring Neil Shusterman's world in his series Arc of a Scythe. I just added new characters, and the time takes place after the trilogy's last book, The Toll. )

When a gruesome murder turns the prosperous celestial kingdom of Galakios upside down, Ascella has no choice but to go on the run. As the attendant to the dead zodio, Toksotis, she is the prime suspect in the case. When the surprise discovery of a clue points her in the direction of the true murderer, she accepts the call to investigate, even though it means teaming up with her ex-girlfriend and forbidden flame, Didimoi. But Ascella's search for justice for Toksotis may unveil more than she expects. In fact, it may just set her and Didimoi on the trail of an ancient threat to the zodia that everyone believed long dead. Cover by @-DeeIsDead- Update schedule: on hold until further notice

Since Esmera was abandoned on a stranger's doorstep as a baby, the only person who has looked out for her is herself. Until a lark starts visiting her, leaving behind exotic flowers and iridescent pebbles that the internet doesn't recognise. Esmera can't believe her eyes when she recognises the lark in a painting in a museum. Her investigation takes her to the home of the museum owner, Tauram - a man who is more than he seems. When a magical force summons Esmera and Tauram to Milatanur, the hidden kingdom that is their home, they have no choice but to answer the call. Soon, it is not their decades-long betrothal that binds them but feelings they must ignore for the sakes of their fractured pasts and precarious futures. Around them, nature rebels under the unjust rule of a cruel sorcerer, threatening to engulf Milatanur. The formidable King Ruagu has spies everywhere, and those who aren't on his side turn to it out of fear. Loyalty will rot into betrayal, blood will be paid, and Esmera will be presented with her destiny to wield a weapon of unparalleled power. But only if she can elude her dark past long enough. *** Cover by @-DeeIsDead-

In a realm where nobody knows who to trust, the one constant in Lyrani Esch's life is her job as an agent for the Elven Council of Irylen Secret Intelligence (ECISI). It's easy enough to ignore the rumours about the villainy of the elf king Nash. People call it "The Curse of the Crown", but it's all hearsay. At least until Lyrani is assigned a mission to confront it. Her objectives are simple - get into Vlitavia Palace, gather intelligence on King Nash's operations, kill him and get out. But assignments are never as easy as they sound, and the stars are against Lyrani from the start. The deeper Lyrani delves into Nash's present, the more she learns of her past. With her startling discoveries comes the realisation that she must free Nash from a vicious trap or forfeit the realm and both their lives in the name of the curse. Because destinies entwined are never easily separated. Season 1 of A Sprinkle of Stardust WARNING: This story contains strong language and depictions of sexual assault that may be upsetting for some readers. Reader discretion is advised.

WATTY'S 2022 SHORTLIST🏅A Qing Dynasty Snow White fairytale retelling with a Princess Mononoke twist. Featured on @Wattpad's Fantasy Adventures reading list and @WattpadExplorer. ***** Snow is anything but the submissive princess the Jade Palace expects her to be. Her foster mothers find her impossible, her royal tutor labels her incorrigible, and she recently threatened to shave her head if she were forced to marry. When the Empress presents her with an opportunity to go on the imperial spring hunt with the princes and her not-so-secret crush, Prince Erden, Snow jumps at the chance. Who knew that that would lead to an assassination attempt, a harrowing escape, and her getting hopelessly lost in a dark forest during a thunderstorm--with no survival skills whatsoever. The only things she has to help her survive are lots of moxie and latent magical powers she inherited from her deceased mother. Oh, and an ethereally white fox that led seven old dwarves to her. With the Empress's malicious intent now revealed, Snow must discover her true strength, who her mother really is, and what magical powers she wields, in order to find her way back to Erden. If she fails, she might never see him again and die a lonely old crone in the mountains. . . or get murdered anyway when the bloodthirsty Empress--said to have fantastical powers of her own--comes for Snow.

Like many low elves in the kingdom of Edresh, Morana was orphaned as a child during the war against neighboring Araphel. But Morana is more fortunate than most, and is taken to live in the palace as a companion to a captive princess, Astreia. She and Astreia become like sisters, and Morana nurses a tension-filled friendship with the sometimes cruel, but always charming High Elf Prince Tievel. But even with the war over, all is not well in Edresh. A curse spreads through the land, raising ghouls and monsters and stealing the lives of the unborn. Yet it is ignored by the High Elf nobility, whose immortality renders such concerns beneath them. Then, the king-Tievel's grandfather-is killed by a magical Araphelian assassin known as a Reaper. When Morana encounters the Reaper as he's making his escape, he reveals a truth that Morana had long-denied: she is one of the last Deathsingers, a wielder of the very same forbidden magic that inspired the king's savage assault on Araphel. Furthermore, her ability to Sing away immortality might just be the key to stopping the horrors slowly consuming their world... But only if she is willing to condemn those like her dear Tievel, who have only ever known eternal life, to the cold permanence of death. To right the wrongs of long ago and prevent the world's unraveling, Morana must dive head first into the sort of danger she's always avoided and venture into Araphel with her friends. But the Reaper is always close behind, a constant reminder of both what Morana is and the impossible sacrifice she might be called upon to make... Season 1 on The Deathsinger WARNING: This story contains depictions of violence and depictions of sexual assault that may not be suitable for some readers.
