✾Highest Ranking: #73 in Adventure: 12/07/17✾ ✾Highest Ranking: #514 in Fantasy: 11/30/17✾ After humans nearly went extinct at the end of the thirtieth century - and almost took Earth along with them, they were devastated. Fearful. Alone. What should have been the start of their demise became proof of their legacy. Instead of being abandoned by the planet they were on the verge of killing, the entity at its core gave the remaining few a task and with it a gift of the four natural elements. Quintessence. They were to rebuild what they destroyed and redeem their ancestors for their volatile mistakes. Now, six hundred years later the Guild Association was created to maintain balance among what was now called Vita. Only those with the greatest influence and power were recognized as guilds. They harbored the purest form of quintessence, but only two were delegated as overseers of the planet. The Light Heathens Guild and their cursed counterpart, the Nightmares Guild. Their guildsmen reaped prestige and nobility, but not Aegis. Despite being heir to the Light Heathens Guild, Aegis is hidden and grows up in solitude with her younger brother, Somnus, on a mountaintop. If not for her adoptive brother belonging to the opposite authority, the Nightmares Guild, perhaps they could have wasted away together. But the recklessness of their caretaker leads them to the very place they're forbidden. The capital of the Two Authorities.

"How can one picture an introvert? Simple, isn't it?Just a guy alone in the room. No dialogues for our protagonist, quite dull and boring. However , its not so in reality......" The main character in this series has some rather peculiar stats under his belt. He is not some prince charming, neither is he some justice freak. He is just an introvert who lives his life peacefully. However as in teenage years, he starts to question his way of life and hence starts a bout against the odds put up by his not so normal teenage life. Updates every 12 days Hope you enjoy the series!!! Thanks to Hakuna Andy for the amazing cover, if you are interested then use the following link https://www.wattpad.com/user/Hakuna_Andy

I don't remember what sunk us; I think it was a storm. I don't remember my name, or where I came from, or where I was going, or what I was doing. And nobody knows that I exist. Not even the others who sank with our ship. But I remember her red dress and my attachment to her... or... some kind of attachment to her. Or a longing for her. I don't know how to describe it. But let me try to explain. Cover by @-psychoo

(UNDER MAJOR REEDITING) THIS STORY IS IN ENGLISH. The title is just to make things more dramatic ;) "Is happiness really that unreachable? That much of an impossibility? Will we forever be outcasts of that beauteous city of happiness, the City of Stars?" Elisedd is a ghost who died a tragic death at the young age of 8. He possessed powers that could either destroy or renew the whole world but his powers became his cause of damnation and now, he walks the earth, observing the joy of the people from afar, as if he was stargazing at something he could never have. Will, a werewolf, who was so desperate to find happiness that he took a chosen mate and went on from there. He never really found it in his wife, but when he finds Elise, everything changes for him. But continuing on denying him for the sake of his wife, will he forever grovel in the darkness that he chose, when the star that would guide him to his happiness is really just in his reach? What if they were both given a chance? Would they take it? Or would they go around in circles, searching for the happiness that is within heart's reach. Join Elisedd and Will in their pursuit of happiness to find out. Artwork is not mine!
