The land of Radenor is in need of salvation: the royal family and court are corrupt to their very core and full of vipers and backstabbers, the church is malevolent, people are starving, death has become a frequent guest of the mendicant people. A betrayed princess sacrifices herself to get vengeance for her ruined mind and life. A newborn prince will become the ultimate weapon for her bloody revenge. He is a half-demon necromancer who was born for an express purpose: become strong, destroy their enemies and regain the throne. Prince Alexander Leonard Radenor is starting his journey, along the way, he will have to master his skills and try to avoid losing himself in the process. After all, there is a reason why necromancy is considered the forbidden art: there is a thin line between using them and letting them use you. Still armed with his magical prowess, martial skills and the abilities granted to him by his demonic heritage, Alex presents a serious threat, the one that the royal family and the court would do well to fear. **This dark fantasy series will be updated every Tuesday and Friday**

** WATTYS 2018 WINNER ** Not one person in the history of the world ever said being Deathsworn was an easy thing. Fun, sometimes, and completely your fault, but never easy. You have one rule that you obey, unless, of course, you want to die. Your life is your list, your list is your life. For the Gallowmen, their journey as Deathsworn has seen them travel the broken realm of Oblivia. From Green Country to the Island Kingdoms, from Sand Country to the Scavania. Death follows where they go, their list gets shorter, and the dream of life becomes half-real. It would be fine if things were that simple. But curious things are happening in the west and the Burned Priests are charged with confronting the Empire's greatest threats. Where they point, the Deathsworn must go. They'll do their job, ask no questions, and get their freedom. Or they'll die trying. *Deathsworn is a spin-off story from a much larger trilogy I'm currently writing. Comments/reviews/feedback would be greatly appreciated wherever possible. Volume I of IV is COMPLETE ... Enjoy.

In 2235, the one nation world of Axis is a stunning example of near perfection. Helmed by The Honorable Chase Vaughn, and solidified after a devastating clash that has been written down in history as The War of the 9th, Axis's economy is thriving, the low class is all but nonexistent, and technology has leaped forward several decades in less than one. Spirit, the energy of life, present in all living beings has been employed effectively in two practices- Techsmithing and Cyphering, attributing to advancements in science in the arcane, respectively. However, to those determined enough, the Spirit can offer so much more. Legend has it that when a man or woman reaches self actualization, a unique Awakening occurs, and they gain access to special abilities that epitomizes the power of their spirit. While some people view them as blessed, others regard them as self righteous offenders of the gift of life, as granted by their spirits. Among those of this school of thought is the The Honorable himself. In his resentment of their kind, Chase Vaughn has begun to rally the hearts and minds of the world against these gifted individuals with the help of a dark congregation, known as "The Order." A young Awakened named Melik Cloud, under the tutelage of his Aunt Kyomi, is taught of the plight against his people and must prepare for a fast brewing war while striving to understand a deeper war raging within himself.
