Those were the statistics that had stuck in Kyna's mind through her first year.

Panic errupts in my mind. Panicking not only out of fear for my friend but also because the fear my uncle would find out before i would be able to cross the Parapet if I'd decided to go and would punish me for even trying, disobeying the rules he has set. As i look back at Mira i see the same fears swirling in her eyes and in trance of the cruelties of Lilith Sorrengail, i nodded, sealing my fate, trading my soul.

Illena Draekar had no idea why she applied to be a dragon rider. She had her reasons, of course. But her reasons were a secret, and Illena was so full of them that she didn't know anymore what was a secret and what was just a fact. She had a plan, that was a fact. But the plan itself was a secret. The war was getting worse, that was a fact, and was also a fact that Illena was the one to blame for that. Which war? That was a secret. Why she was the one to blame? Also a secret. Why she had so many secrets and so many facts? Well, that's a secret. But I'll give you a fact: she thinks it's time to fight. And what better place to begin than Basgiath? The marked ones were there. The dragons were there, the professors, the weapons, the lies, the reasons, they were all there. The only thing she did not expect to be there was love. But love was for children, and Garrick surely wasn't one. Illena may have fallen in love with him, anyway. But that was a secret as well. And also a fact. (This is a Fourth Wing fanfiction, the characters and the story belongs to Rebecca Yarros, only the main character, Illena, is original)

Thrust into this new world where brutality and strength reign supreme right along side the giant fire-breathing dragons, Kitt will have to navigate through Conscription Day and Threshing. Through old memories and still-healing wounds. Through new friendships and new love. All the while an evil lurks just beneath the surface, threatening to destroy everything she has come to cherish. Kitt will be faced with demons both in the flesh and within her own mind. But Kitt is a Riorson. And she will not break easily.

Hurling her back into a realm, she desperately fled, Hallie confronts a twisted reality where certainty withers like leaves in a storm. Each shadow conceals menace, and each face masks a potential betrayer. Join Hallie on her harrowing journey through this maelstrom of chaos, where every step forward plunges her deeper into the abyss, where the line between survival and oblivion blurs with each heartbeat. ○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○● The boy gasps and stares at me hard, his dark eyes breaking down every barrier I have ever built. "Hallie?" How does he know that? "Who the fuck are you?" I say as he reaches out for me. Vomryra lunges at him sensing my fear, but the man easily controls the shadows and holds her mid-air with them. He looks at me his eyebrows furrowed deeply. "Holy shit, it is you." He paces back and forth before finally answering my earlier question. "It's me, Xaden Riorson, your brother." DISCLAIMER: ALL RIGHTS BELONG TO REBBECCA YARROS (I do own some characters and events.)
