For years Yasu, King of Genya, ruled with kindness alongside his four sons-Bentarou, Mizuki, Haru, and Kimura. But when their bond with the Kataki clan is severed by deceit and betrayal, the peace they have known is shattered. With the threat of Yasu's death looming like a shadow and their home no longer safe, the benevolent king and his sons embark on a journey to find a new land. However, the world beyond Genya's borders is far more dangerous than they could have imagined. New lands bring forth challenges, while unfamiliar faces become friends or foes. And as the journey pushes each of them to their limits, they must not only face the dangers around them but the conflicts growing between them. By the journey's end, will the bonds between them be stronger than ever... or will they crumble? *This is a prequel to The Fate That Binds Us.

Life can change within a matter of seconds. A single moment can bring your biggest tragedy or greatest accomplishment-it isn't always something we get to choose. One moment you might be swearing off love, and in the next beat "the one" enters the chat. One moment you could be living without a care in the world and the next...you find yourself buried under a burden you never agreed to carry. And sometimes, when that burden becomes too heavy, the universe offers relief in the form of human sunshine. And for Annie, Brendan, and his cat named Kimchi, one ordinary moment is the beginning of everything. **I am the owner of this original content.

Enter a disenchanted future of London-- escape to the enchanted past. Wren and historian Ali find a spell that takes them to the Victorian Era, which is better and worse than their expectations. They'll encounter magical orders, secret societies, and royal families. In a quest to rediscover magic in the past to somehow save their dystopian future their journey continues as love, loss, and magic systems open themselves to them. Magics explored: Hermetic Pentagram Magic, Astrology, Onmyōdō, Mesmerism, Cabala, Planetary Pentacles, Cunning work and much more! While certain liberties (the imaging of magic, the conclusions about the Death of King George III) are invented or exaggerated, but I've based about as much of this as I can on real historical facts! (Ali would be proud.)

Prince Leoric Menethil was never meant to wear the crown. He would be the first to say it. His fate was to live under the shadow of his older brother, Arthas Menethil, and eventually break his desk with the mountain of paperwork. The most he risked was a paper cut. However, as the world turned dark and cold, Leoric had to risk much more. He would do his best to save the people of Lordaeron. His way, while the golden prince might be crushed under his responsibility and his fiery righteousness. Will he succeed and secure a new future for the people who need it most? Perhaps he will just end up being the prince who ran? This fanfic is set during the events of the Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos story. It will follow the main plotline with divergences and new additions. There's going to be a romantic subplot for our character, and it might not be who you think ;) Fun fact! There will be several original characters who will represent characters I had in World of Warcraft. I always loved to add extra backstory for RP reasons, and what better way to commemorate them than to give them a space to live? Expect possible gore, brutality, foul language, tragedy, sensitive topics, and occasional smut. This goes for the whole story. If this goes well, I do not rule out a possible sequel. The cover was made by me in Canva. Please remember that English is not my first language.

Shortlisted in Muse Awards. 2nd place in Mystery awards ( overall) and 1st place in world building. "He thought he was the hunter. He didn't know she had nothing left to lose." Trapped within the dark, looming walls of Vaelhorst Palace, Aethelgard is a captive surrounded by enemies. Her survival depends entirely on the mercy of Malakor-a ruthless, hyper-vigilant Dark Lord whose very name strikes terror across the kingdoms. Separated from everything she knows by the treacherous, ink-black waters of The Mourning Tides, escape seems completely impossible. But Malakor underestimates the girl in his shadows. Before sending her to the Dark Lord, the sinister witch known as Pale Marrow ripped away Aethelgard's emotions, leaving her completely hollow. Malakor expects a terrified prisoner, but instead, he faces a mind completely untethered by fear, panic, or mercy. As a dangerous, slow-burn game of wit and proximity unfolds between captive and captor, the lines between hatred and curiosity begin to blur. Aethelgard must use her cold, emotionless clarity to dismantle Malakor's court from the inside-before the magic fades and her feelings come rushing back. A dark fantasy romance filled with royal intrigue, psychological tension, and a toxic power dynamic that will burn down an empire.

Kagami Arata Amateru is a cheerful, energetic 14-year-old boy who lives a simple life traveling and trading with his grandpa Genzo. Everything changes when they are attacked by the infamous vile shinobi Kurogane, a former Sōke turned rogue. A mysterious, powerful shinobi named Jinsei (the "Unavoidable Step") saves them and reveals that Kagami has been hunted since birth because of a dangerous hidden power inside him. Jinsei brings Kagami and Genzo to Takayama, a powerful shinobi alliance and institute that serves as a beacon of peace and strength in Tsukikure. At Takayama, Kagami begins his life as a Shoshin (new student). He meets Rein Hoshiko Amateru (a determined girl from the same distant clan), the laid-back but talented pervert prodigy Takumi, and the strict but caring Giin Aiyame. As Kagami trains hard (learning Shunpō, Mizugumo, Shadow Projection, and refining his Hikari Dama Kyōka), he discovers the weight of his secret: he is connected to the ancient god Izanagi. This makes him a target for the shadowy organization led by Kuromaku. Meanwhile, a mysterious white-haired boy named Shirō (an Itsunagi with powerful Shiryōken) enters Kagami's life as a rival and eventual complicated teammate. Other key figures include the quiet wolf-like Tsubaki, the gentle medical shinobi Iroha, and the complex leadership of Takayama (Gichō Shūen Mizuhara, Masatora, etc.). The story blends action, training arcs, emotional drama, light romance (Kagami & Rein), and rising political/shinobi threats. It has strong rivalries, tragic backstories, and a rich world with clans (Amateru, Itsunagi, Raiketsu), kami's, and forbidden powers.
