These are my thoughts. I hope you enjoy my way of seeing things. It isn't my intention to confuse you yet confusion seems to run ramped throughout my entire being at times. I tolerate the things in life with a touch of myself sprinkled all over it. That way I don't feel so undone and lost when confusion comes a calling. One thing I am certain about is that there are 2 types of people in this world. You and me. Hopefully my words will illuminate our differences without bringing either one of us shame or fame. I am the X poet dubbed honorably by my late brother Scott Kenneth Bunker. He gave me the courage to share my gifts and talents with you. Thank you for your attention.

The world as we know it is controlled by Nobles - powerful wizards that have power over everything. It is the age of ice; a time of ages past, lost in our historical records and unbeknownst to the world today. The commoners who don't wield magic live under their thrall as slaves, doing everything humanly possible to avoid earning their wrath. A single misstep could spell torture or death. One morning, a commoner accidentally takes matters into his own hands by standing up against a prominent Noble's son. The ensuing altercation enrages the boy's father Malevolent Drake, who delivers an ultimatum: A hundred commoners are to die in three days to restore his house's honor, or the elimination of the entire commoner camp. Faced with that reality, the leader of the camp hatches a plot to bring in outside help to combat the Noble army. With time running short, nobody really knows if the plan will even work - given the fact that the Nobles themselves have a few tricks up their sleeves as well. Tricks that could spell doom for everyone involved... * Highest ranked #63 in Adventure (Apr'16) & #708 in Fantasy (May'16). Updates every Tuesday & Friday :)

I managed to get to #1 on Wattpad for Fantasy as well as Adventure in a month and a half. After four months, I had 1 Million reads and a year later I had 5 million. I worked really hard and have been very lucky, but I'm sure that following these simple rules helped a lot!
