• Long Listed for the 2018 Wattys • A Wattpad Featured Story • Top 30 in the first ever Historical Awards [ A "GREAT EXPECTATIONS" RETELLING ] GENRE: historical fiction London, 1884 "Sometimes, even messiahs can't bring back the dead." Instead of earning the reputation of a modest doctor, Matthew Knightley seems to be earning one of a raven chasing rebel amongst his peers. Taking a side turn from the family business and fighting a cold war with your father doesn't help either. Still, he does not let such inconvenices steer his ship into the wrong direction. Though, the raven Matthew keeps seeing leads him again and again to a woman with more half-truths than lies. She may not say so herself, but Mathilda Penrose may be one of those secrets that Matthew never bargained for. Hints and glimpses of a carefully structured past follow him. They all point to a past that the newer generation of the Knightleys and Penroses barely know of. Instead of abolishing that cold war with his father, Matthew finds the very base of his own Eden shattering into a thousand rays of scorching light. || Cover by @elzarion || | #33 in Historical Fiction on 26-8-18 | || UPDATED WEEKLY ||

My following words of yore and spite may shock you to the very core. They acknowledge a fact known to few, and even less, known to heart. But please, by the whim of mind and patience of soul, I beseech you to listen all the clear. Tolkien's tale of Middle Earth has fallen from its original translation. His story of Thorin Oakenshield's company once bore truth, but fate was reconstructed in light of a prophecy: The girl born of flame, fostered by the dwarves, royal in her name, and her child's birth. She is the one and only protector of Middle Earth, guardian over Mordor, savior of our royal dwarf. Her knowledge will be countered by family's unknown survival, though fate will turn it right as in sacrifice of her royal line. It isn't just a story, but the Valar's greatest mistake; let the heavens toll loud to save Durin's sons After the war of the ring and the destruction of Sauron, the Valar decided to repeat the past, starting at the union of the company within a small hobbit hole in the typically quiet Shire. Why, you may ask, did they decide to do this? Originally, the Valar had ignored the prophecy stated above (as they had done in the past), allowing the Durin line to be exterminated by the Pale Orc, Azog. However, the reign of Dain and his heirs as they took Erebor's throne turned out to be heartless and cruel, unlike the intended fate of Erebor foretold. Therefore, the Valar decided to turn back the clock, 60 years, giving Gandalf the idea to invite the "girl of fire" to the meeting in Hobbiton. Indeed, this did bring about the intended fate of the Lonely Mountain as well as infinite happiness to the company of heroic dwarves. This is her story, as she sacrificed her line in saving Durin.

"In her eyes, the sadness sings of one who was destined for greater things." [Lang Leav] Davina Roswell was the forgotten princess of an otherwise-extinct race. She had became a wanderer over the years, until Gandalf approached her about a dwarfish quest to reclaim Erebor and reminded her about the prophecy fortold of the Nymali Viator. Although reluctant, and annoyed with Gandalf's insisting that her powers were a blessing instead of the curse she viewed them to be, Davina joins the expedition. Immediately upon meeting, she and Thorin Oakenshield are at each other's throats... but a lot can change over the course of a journey as perilous as this. © The Hobbit/LOTR belongs to J.R.R. Tolkien (books) and Peter Jackson (films). I only own my OC Davina Roswell and her story.

"The things we love destroy us every time, lad. Remember that." Fairies are one of the oldest race of beings in Arda -once they called Numenór home- but Arethusa watched as the sea claimed the island from the helm of a ship as the survivors fled to Middle Earth. She has wandered for several lifetimes and has seen nearly all there is. Long had she set aside her bow and sward for, in truth, a healer's hands see more blood than a warrior's. Over the years, she had grown to love the ways of hobbits and there is no hobbit she adores more than Bilbo Baggins. When her visit is interrupted by a band of uncouth dwarves and her dear friend goes running out his door on an adventure what can she do but follow?

Kathy has dreams every night of a tall elf King who tells her stories of dwarfs and dragons. But they are just stories, so she thinks. But when the king brings her to this "imaginary place" she is in grave danger, for Lord Harlem of the drakes, wants her kidnapped. And what about the three other princesses he talked about? Where are they? She will soon find them. A little bit of love, a little bit of sacrifice, and a whole lot of red hair. Again, most of these characters are not mine, they belong to J. R. R. Tolkien but the plot is my own. Helpful comments alway welcome or even just your comments in general are gladly taken. I do take a few liberties (like travel holes) but try to stay true to the wonderful novels. #wattys2015 #feels
