I was just making a virtual reality game because the fantasy world was too boring... "The Deus commands it! Go and retrieve the hidden item, Paladins! Our god desires it!" "We must not fall behind the Republic scum! Increase the farming speed!" "Treacherous Empire dogs! Today, we shall purge our enemies and reclaim the hunting grounds!"

In a world held together by ancient magic, one girl's forbidden power could be the key to everything-or the catalyst for its destruction. Fourteen-year-old Thea Presten has never left her secluded ranch, let alone practiced Alchemy. But beneath Bergen, Norway, in the hidden halls of Blackthorn and Burtree, she's about to discover a gift that defies the very codes of magic. As war looms between the Keeper's Animarum and the Shadow Alchemists, Thea must learn to harness her dangerous abilities in secret. Thrust into a world of Conversion Circles and Alchemical beasts, Thea realizes she's been unknowingly breaking the laws of Alchemy her entire life. As she struggles to keep her powers hidden, she finds unexpected friendship with two fellow Spectrum Scholars. But with the Code Keeper and Code Breaker both potentially interested in her abilities, Thea must decide who-if anyone-she can trust. The Code Keeper has manipulated every aspect of Thea's life, pushing her towards a destiny she never chose. As global battles rage and the Earth itself seems to rebel, Thea's decisions could tip the balance of power. The Shadow Faction's leader would stop at nothing to possess her gift, while the Keeper sees her as the key to saving the world-but at what cost? Will Thea's reckless quest for control over her own life unleash a power that could mend their fractured world-or shatter it beyond repair? ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ This book is a preview of the Amazon exclusive.

The Alchemist is considered the most useless of all the 5 classes offered in the Virtual World of 'Hell's Gates'(Warrior, Archer, Mage, Cleric, and Alchemist). Having little to no Combat Skills, and relying on real-world Chemistry Knowledge (a Lost art of sorts,) to make anything more than the most basic potions, they are very rarely seen past the first or second level, because most people change their class after seeing its uselessness. Still, this class allows Sam to spread her literal and proverbial wings as a Chemist and Inventor in a world where such a skill set is actually very valuable! Of course, with the rarity and value of their skills comes a plethora of problems, and most don't last very long at all, but Sam is determined, damn it! Hopefully, being stubborn and lucky in equal portions will be enough to survive and thrive in the world of Hell's Gates? (((Complete!!! Perhaps there'll be a Book Two if this gets enough attention???)))

The official longest story ever written on Wattpad.

Sam is the most promising swordsman among this year’s crop of Paladin trainees...and knows it. Brash, cocky, and unbeatable with a sword (well, almost), Sam is the kingdom of Thule’s best hope against the violence wrought by demons. The only problem is that Sam is really Lady Samantha, daughter of the seventeenth Duke of Haywood, and if her father has his way, she’ll be marrying a Paladin, not becoming one. But Sam has never held much interest in playing damsel-in-distress, and so she rescues herself from a lifetime of boredom and matrimonial drudgery. Pity that Tristan Lyons, the Paladin assigned to train her, is none other than the hero of her childhood. He hasn’t recognized her as Lady Samantha--yet-- but if he does, he’ll take away her sword and send her packing. Sam is not the only trainee hiding secrets: Braeden is a half-demon with a dark past that might be unforgivable. Sam, Braeden and Tristan set out for the western coast, charged with rooting out an infestation of demons that has made the West unlivable. As they travel, they uncover a deep-seated corruption of power that threatens to derail everything they stand for. Rebellion stirs, led by a rival faction of warriors who tempt Sam to join them with an irresistible offer. A war between men is coming, and Sam must pick a side. Will saving the kingdom cost her life -- or just her heart? Reminiscent of Mulan, but with a medieval fantasy twist, Paladin is a tale of adventure, action, and romance.
