There is no night in the Everburning City. There can never be. ***** For four hundred years the Everburning City has withstood the advance of the life-strangling fog known as the Gloam. Its walls have held back five invasions, but on the eve of the sixth, the city's inhabitants know things have changed. Golems are coming out of the mist, and the bodies of the dead are rising at the Gloam's bidding. The city's last and most desperate line of defence comes in the form of the Crafters, individuals who can channel the power of fire, though they risk their sanity each time they do. The brightest of these valiant heroes are Tabitha a'Loria and her apprentice Gerald Reath. Risking their lives, they mount their airships, determined to save the last bastion of humanity - the Everburning City. [[word count: 100,000-150,000 words]]

•A Wattpad featured story• Hogwarts circa 1975. The Marauders' era is at its peak: James Potter is head over heels in love with a certain redheaded prefect. Remus Lupin, ever the responsible one, is usually keeping track of the Marauders' bets, and trying- however unsuccessfully- to keep the others from creating too much trouble. Peter Pettigrew has been acting a bit odd lately- odder than he normally is, that is. Lastly Mr. Sirius Black- the pureblood player, who cannot for the life of him sustain a relationship for more than a month. But something is about to change. For their fifth year, three girls have transferred from Salem Witches Institute, and from the moment they met the Marauders, they're keeping them on their toes. Despite the friendly rivalry, Sirius finds himself drawn to one of them after finding out about her past, so much like his own. Sassy, single-minded and strong, Arianna Shah is more than pleased to find extremely good friends in the Marauders- after all, who doesn't enjoy being a part of the coolest prank wars in school? But in the process of pranking one another, Arianna finds herself drawn to a certain gray-eyed prankster. Helpful Reviews- "I love those two, but they're a bloody mess, and somebody needs to help them!"- James Potter. "Black had better not try to come near one of my friends again, or I'll hex him into next year."- Lily Evans. "We haven't had a good prank war in ages, so I'm a little thankful they came along- it's definitely going to be an interesting year."- Remus Lupin. "Yes yes, it's all very interesting, can we go eat now?"- Peter Pettigrew. Disclaimer- All characters and places you know belong to JKR and Warner Bros, the rest are created by me. The story will mostly be from either Arianna or Sirius' POV, but I MAY include other POVs to keep things fresh. PS, Sorry about the Fall Out Boy-esque chapter titles! PPS, none of the pictures or gifs belong to me, unless mentioned otherwise

"Repeat after me: For Russia!" "FOR RUSSIA!" "To die is to gain!" "TO DIE IS TO GAIN!" "To live is for glory!" "TO LIVE IS FOR GLORY!" Natalia had a sinking feeling that few of the girls understood the depth of what they were pledging. With a somber face she repeated the words after Master Abramova. To die. To live. For Russia.

***Featured Story in 2017*** "Without Balance Lies Only Chaos." ______________________________________________ Every two hundred years, since the beginning when Earth finally evolved into a planet of life in our universe, there was a selected few who were granted the responsibility of wielding the remarkable power of the four famously known elements. Fire: Element of Determination and Strong Will. Earth: Element of Logic and Realism. Air: Element of Intellect and Freedom. Water: Element of Emotion and Compassion. In addition to the four main elements were two more rarer ones: Light and Darkness. Light being the element of the Day and its purity whereas Darkness is deemed as the element of Night and its wickedness. However in due time the generations gradually became flawed, hurtling into world of unbalance. Darkness had unhinged, rising, growing vengeful against her own and none other then the next reincarnation of elements were needed to stop her. Unexpectedly, they were teenagers. |HUMOR| FANTASY| MAGIC| Constructive criticism is very much welcomed.

Remus Lupin was convinced he was a monster, ever since he was bitten by Fenrir Greyback at a young age. The friendship of James Potter, Sirius Black, and Peter Pettigrew was a miracle he had never expected, and didn't feel that he exactly deserved, especially after they became animagi to accompany him during his transformations. Calico Finley, a muggleborn witch and outsider, had clawed her way to feeling accepted at Hogwarts, but never felt it was home until befriending the Marauders. And even after, they're all hiding something, something about Remus, something that she's desperate to know as she grows closer to the scarred boy. The monster and the outsider find each other, and the result will prove to be a complete catastrophe. But disasters are beautiful before their tragic ends, something you can't look away from, until it's too late. ~~~ I do not own Harry Potter. JK Rowling does.
