In a dystopian future, an acidic flood reigns and the only signs of old life lie in the deep.

One day, while exploring a set of deep-sea ruins, she is haunted by a mysterious spirit; a spirit that seems to be warning her of something. The problem is, this ancient being doesn't seem to have any memory of its previous life.

She is sent to kill the dragon. Instead, she might become his only salvation. *** In a world swallowed by the Ever-Dark, Iva Vernigora is nothing more than a lowly servant in the house of the cruel Voivode Yakub Ivanov, Duke of Highroot. But when Voivode blackmails her with the lives of her parents, Iva is forced to pretend she's his daughter, as she infiltrates the royal academy of magic - Kolegium. Voivode Yakub's order is absolute: poison the Prince Konstantin Veliki. Prince Konstantin is the heir to the throne, the last of the line of Dragons - a Zmey warrior of light, who was blessed with a dragon-shifting gift. At a first glance, he is nothing but a smug, pompous royal, and everything Iva is supposed to hate. Yet every touch, and every shared lesson at Kolegium blurs the line between the enemy she must kill and the man she is beginning to crave. While Iva stalks her prey as a knife in the dark, waiting for the chance to extinguish Konstantin's light, she discovers that the dragon everyone fears is the only thing standing between humanity and the void. As the Ever-Dark Shades rise, Iva must make an impossible choice. Will she carry out her sinister orders and secure her parents' freedom, or will she stand by the Dragon in the battle for the world's last light? *** The Shades are coming. The Dragons are falling. And the Eternal Spark is waiting for its host. © 2026 EvelynHail Exclusively on Wattpad Based on prompts: 97. "When the world slips into endless darkness, something begins to move in the shadows and you must find a way to survive in a night that never ends." 4.

Main Prompt: And into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul. When a streak of light sends paramedic Leilana Yang into the heart of Northview, Maine forest, she never thought she would find herself in the middle of harboring a fugitive alien outlaw. Between her job fighting death and her family's future matches, Leilana wants nothing to do with her new "roommate". Add attacks on her life by alien bounty hunters and her brain is more then ready to kick him out. It's too bad her heart is too busy making other plans. As for number 287, he never thought he would find himself stuck on earth with a human as a "roommate". If they were back in the arena, she would be dead in a heartbeat, feasted on by the beasts controlled by the most powerful. Yet, that doesn't seem to do much for this woman who constantly seems to dive head-first into trouble without fear; a trait that drives him insane in more ways then one. With bounties on their heads, can the two of them survive long enough to see an end to this mess or will their own conflicting feelings be enough for them to claim each other's heads?

When he enters the game due to being sick of having to be stuck in the closet, though, everything seems a lot more real than he thought this pixel filled world would be... ONC Prompts: 8. You wake up inside Stardew Valley with no idea how you got there and no guarantee you'll ever get back home. 79. A letter arrives addressed to you, written by someone who shouldn't exist.
