IMPORTANT: The story is currently undergoing a focused revision of the early chapters so they better reflect the direction the story has grown into. Seeing Belaria through Alya's eyes is a big part of that! :) I'm working on this full time and will be back to updating new chapters on schedule as soon as the edits are finished. Thank you for your patience and your support! In Belaria, magic is power- and power belongs to those who wield it. Alya Velmire has spent her whole life wearing the mask of the perfect heir-despite being born to a murdered non-magical mother and raised as a blemish on a prestigious mage bloodline. When a political mission goes wrong, Alya falls into the hands of Sirius Lioren: a rebel leader, a Union idealist, and the first person to look at her and see the truth she's terrified to face. "When was the last time your family made you feel like you're enough?" The question shatters the world she thought she knew. As her carefully constructed life collapses, Alya spirals into a world where loyalty means complicity, and strength means becoming a monster. But some choices can't be undone. Some lines, once crossed, lead only to devastation. And when everything she loves burns to ash, there will be only one way to make it right: Go back. Change everything. No matter the cost. A dark fantasy of political intrigue, forbidden magic, and a love that transcends time itself. (You can find this story on Royal Road, too)

✦ COMPLETE ✦ - Book One (no cliffhanger) His greatest sin wasn't treason. It was having a half-human daughter. Prince Eirran is a winged Ilari, a former warrior and Seraph. His only crime was loving a human woman - a crime that cost her her life and left him with a living, breathing secret: their daughter. Lily is half-human, half-Ilari, and utterly wingless. A "mudborn princess" - not a title, but a slur. Her very existence is a blasphemy that could shatter the empire. To protect her, Eirran must hide her in plain sight, battling the vipers of his court who would see her erased. But as Lily grows, a dormant inheritance awakens within her - that could unravel the world itself. Earthborn blends political intrigue with mythic atmosphere and deeply intimate character work. For fans of the fierce parent-child bond of The Last of Us and the Witcher. This is a story where love is not a romance, but a rebellion. This story features: ✦ A heart-wrenching, central father-daughter bond. ✦ A brave, perceptive girl who learns to stand in a world built to erase her. ✦ Winged races, aerial legions, and political scheming. ✦ Tear-jerking moments & heart-soaring hope.
