Magic and ego always go well together be it in either the hands of a tyrant or a hero. In the world of Belvegarde, kingdoms are fraught with war, as men slaughter each other with steel and magic in the name of their old Gods. Mystaline is not one of those armored, volatile savages. She's a young, sheltered woman who is one of the Gifted, mortals born surrounded by Mist and blessed with different forms of magic. Unlike other musicians and singers, she is able to turn any backwater rhyme into a beautiful song that can move thousands and heal them. It is because of this that she vows to use her gift to mend the war-ridden kingdom of Caledonia, which she calls home. But instead of achieving the fame and recognition she thought being a Gifted would come with, Mystaline instead discovers the cruelty of Caledonia's inner circle. Unbeknownst to her, the Gift she was born with is the catalyst that will drown all of Belvegarde in blood. *cover and banners were painted and designed by me* ---updates at least once a week--- *Featured on newlywrittenbooks's Fantasy reading list *1st place Fantasy - August Blue Rose Awards *1st place Overall - August Blue Rose Awards *1st place Rookie - August Blue Rose Awards *1st place Fantasy - Courage Awards 2019 #56 in highfantasy (08/06/2019) #36 in epicfantasy (9/29/2019) Started July 30, 2019

BOOK ONE OF THE FADING EMBERS SERIES ----------------------------------------------------------------------- "The embers fade, and the Day of the Lightless shall be upon us." For the longest time, a lonely continent shrouded by Mist was all the nine races of Jordarys ever knew. They knew the Mist was to be feared. Those who were swallowed by the Mist were never seen again. The Mist birthed terrible monsters that rose from the seas, plaguing their land. The gods bestowed the inhabitants of Jordarys with a gift, the Primeval Flames, to fight the scourge of the Mist for as long as they have. However, the flames are dwindling. The inevitable day where the embers sputter and die is encroaching upon them with every rising and setting of the sun. When that day comes, the Mist shall swallow this last remaining bastion of the world whole. Not all would stand idle as the storm brews. The fate of Jordarys teeters perilously in the balance as everyone, from monarchs to assassins to scholars and warriors, fights for their survival. "For only the heir of cinders will inherit the world when the embers finally fade." ----------------------------------------------------------------------- A collaboration between VeryBigMess and @Fiona_jessie.

Nobody is born evil. They're only seen as a hero in a different perspective. Macey Russells is the moon mage, the reincarnation of a goddess who saved Amberguarde thousands of years ago, harbouring the abilities to manipulate the lunar energy around her. However, due to her anxiety, she has a hard time controlling her magic, using sarcasm and witty jokes to gain a steady mentality. Connor Heslington, brother of the famous Overseer Michael, is a future Paladin who is following in the footsteps of his prestigious family. Known only as a cutthroat snake in the grass, he wants to detach himself from the ways of the old, knowing that if his family keep leading with an iron heart, war will ravage Amberguarde. However, he knows that being kind in this world will only get himself killed. With rumours of a lingering darkness beckoning on the horizon, the Grendilton Institute starts to prepare for a battle against a hoard of creatures created in the caverns of blackness, led by an unknown industry whose intentions seem to contradict the Citadel of Magics. With conflicting intentions towards one another, Macey and Connor both dwell further into the mysteries of the shadows, discovering that Macey is only half of a very complicated puzzle.

Dear Boo is an advice journal for anyone who needs someone to talk to. I listen and give my advice about any topic possible. So, things such as rape, eating disorders, psychological disorders, self-harm, suicide attempts, abuse, and much more, will be discussed. I have experience by training with the Crisis Text Line, as well as helping friends throughout the years. With many nursing and psychology classes under my belt-mixed with my personal experience of psychological issues-they allow me to have a better knowledge of whatever topic is being discussed. I read every letter that is sent to me before adding it to my list. I answer letters in the order they are sent to me-unless it deals with a severe topic that I feel needs answered immediately. I will not judge anyone. You WILL be kept anonymous in your letter by using a fake name chosen by me or yourself. If a topic is heavy, I will include a trigger warning at the top. I keep it real and won't sugar coat anything. So slip off your shoes and come get comfy with us. Open up your heart and mind to someone else's life. Maybe you'll realize you're not alone in your situation. This is life-real, raw, and uncut! **Warning** I will NOT tolerate any bullying! No racism, No homophobia! No hate period! If it happens you will be muted and reported to Wattpad HQ. Voicing your opinion on something is fine, attacking someone is NOT! ©Holly K. Collins
