Long ago in the Korean kingdom of Joseon, a long-time rivalry between two young noblemen leads to a plot for revenge. Unfortunately for Young Min, the nobleman being revenged upon, this only leads to being terribly misunderstood and cursed with a crippling affliction. It isn't his best day. When his curse only worsens, Young Min sets off to find a cure in the next town over. A mountain stands between him and his destination, and the path is rumored to be haunted--though the travelers themselves might be more dangerous than the spirits. Along the way, Young Min gets caught up in a mystery involving a crossdressing girl, ghost-fearing musicians, and a horde of belligerent robbers. Everywhere he turns, there seems to be something else blocking him from getting to his destination and finding a cure, especially after the mountain's nine-tailed fox is forced out of hiding. She doesn't like helping people, and she's not happy. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 2016 Wattpad Featured story Fantasy #128 (5/5/15) Historical Fiction #68 (7/15/14)

A mysterious man only known as the Pied Piper haunts Aschein. Not only does he lead children away, but he robs many towns of the magic that sustains their life. Now, monsters overrun the world, and humans are being driven into a corner, unable to fend off the creatures that attack them more and more frequently. Enter sixteen year-old Klaudia, a disabled girl who was left behind because she was unable to follow the Piper. She is a living curse to the people of Hamelin, a painful reminder of their misfortune--and has no place in the town. When she receives a marriage proposal from the powerful Lord Himmel, she accepts without hesitation. Introduced into the world of magic, Klaudia finds her calling as a Magus, a powerful brand of sorcerers whose Affinities are among the most powerful in the world. But underneath the glamour and the luxury of Lord Himmel's castle lies a deadly secret.

-What would you do if you only had 59 minutes to love?- -The tingling sensation spread from my finger tips to him, slowly healing the wounds on his extremely pale and fragile body. His open wounds slowly started to close and appear on my flawless skin, a result of my powers of course. His wounds were almost healed when his emerald eyes fluttered open. "My angel." He whispered. I gave a half smile holding back the pain I was suffering through. I felt weak, if only I could heal my body straight away. The next thing I knew I was the person strapped up to machines and monitors. My eyes were too heavy to open, I felt weaker than I did before and I could only hear voices. "You should have at least had the courtesy to tell her you had a brain tumour, so maybe she wouldn't be the one dying!" My brother’s voice rang through the room. “I didn’t know she could heal people.” A voice that came so familiar to me, spoke. I winced, the wounds were causing me so much pain it was unbearable. "Hey, hey it's going to be ok." My brother said soothingly. Being the protective brother as he always was. "Your body will heal in an hour," he said soothingly, then murmured "hopefully" A familiar voice spoke, making me forget the pain I was in. I strained my throbbing ears to listen to the voice that was so familiar. "I love you."
