Theron is an ordinary blacksmiths nephew, or so he thought. Spending most of his life at his uncles blacksmith, Theron never really knew too many people, but he heard all the gossip. The king of Sogaria, Theron's home country, was rumored to be gathering more troops than normal, although nobody can tell them why. He's even heard rumors that Orrokan, the king himself, had been seen flying around the capitol city. Theron was worried about the allegations against his king, but he didn't have a way to act upon his gut. Well he didn't up until Greydeus got kidnapped. Greydeus was the town drunk, and it seemed Theron was the only one in the village to care. One day though, while Theron was looking through the forest for Gredeus, he ran across a stone. Oblivious to the consequences of picking up that stone, Theron took it, forever changing his destiny and the destiny of the land and people around him.

A man's name is important and Salip Pulaco has more than one. He's been called a pirate, a savage, a fool, and sometimes a hero, but a changed man? Now, that one is still up for debate... Feared by his enemies and loved by his people, Pulaco must find away to protect not only his family, but also his own chiefdom as his enemies descend towards him- enemies that range from an ambitious rival datu, a fleet of Conquistadores with enough fire power to burn down his village, an arrogant and spiteful princeling, an undeserving Regent, and many more. While his allies include a mysterious headhunter, a hot-head brother-in-law and a mixed-bag of warriors. This is a story of one's Identity, one's Legacy, one's hunger for Glory, one's longing for Peace and one's dream to live Free. A fantastical retelling of a Filipino classic with a dash of magic and a whole lot of blood set in Pre-Colonial Philippines. Now on the Wattpad Recommended List- Cozy up & Connect and AmbassadorPh's Mythical Reads Enjoy! [Under Editing] 2nd draft "Antonio Pigafetta, a Florentine navigator who went with Magellan on the first voyage around the world, wrote, upon his passage [...], a strictly accurate account that nonetheless resembles a venture into fantasy." -Gabriel García Márquez

It was bound to happen. When the tribes in the South conglomerated into the Southern Union, they thought that they could rewrite their past. They thought that their Unification could bring about a new age – an age of new intellectual thought where primitive heathen concepts would be squashed underfoot and peace and equality would reign. It has been ten years since the Unification. And the South has returned from a democratic state to a vicious monarchy where only the most ancient laws of the land are being followed; death to those that oppose the King. But this is not a story of the South. This is a story about the Midlands, gateway to the wild Northern reaches, where traditions are still crucial to survival. Where every day is a struggle and only the strongest can survive. This is the story of the rebellion of the Midland Woods under the command of the Canium, leader of the most primitive, brutal, and wild clan on the continent. THIS IS NOT A WEREWOLF STORY IN ANY WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM. [Any suggestions for editing would be greatly appreciated! I will get around to them eventually. I promise.] Special thanks to the amazing badacid_ for the lovely cover.

11x featured wattpad story. Before everything, it's assumed there was nothing, but what if there was no real difference between the two? Just two extreme philosophies from the first conflict. The planet Huom has been under observation for longer than should technically be possible. The primary watcher, a bitter black hole, is excited to see that there is finally a proverbial Darkness at the end of the tunnel. Meanwhile, on the planet, in the freezing mountains of Empris, Lyeasrakardsul, the oldest living sorcerer, suffers from devastating nightmares. At the same time, far away in the sandstone desert of Zenon, Herschel, a man filled to the brim with weird ideas is escaping a prison filled with strange old men. What does all this have to do with arsehole Gods, hairy Dwarfs, frustrated Afreets, curious Knomes, lizard-women, and nude Áettar? Perhaps Nothing, perhaps Everything... but why can't it be both?
