- Summary - Jay was 13 when his father died, and all he had was his sister and his abusive mother. One day, Jay couldn't stand the forest - where he lived all his life - anymore. He leaves home, and spend nights in different environments. After quite some time alone, a blizzard hits him, forcing him to find shelter in an ice cave. Little did Jay know, he was in a tribe's home. Luckily, they were nice to Jay, and even taught him how to fend for himself. While Jay was hunting, he met a wandering trader named Cyclone, who gave Jay a 'special' staff in turn for the food Jay offered him. After two years of joining the tribe, Jay finds out that he has Animus Magic. Little by little, Jay learns how to channel the magic, at the risk of its downsides. But soon, he got corrupted by the staff the trader had given him. He enchanted the staff to do his bidding, and killed all of the people in his tribe and raided the camps they had. Pretty soon, he's known by many people, including Danny and Shift. Jay managed to find his way to a neighbourhood, where he first met Danny and Shift, and someone Jay found looked familiar. Jay was then taken away by 'Figure', and is brought to a strange, dark, and empty void. There, he was selected to be the wielder of 4 forgotten crystals, each with their own unique ability. Then, he was sent off in search of them. - Warnings - Blood, fighting, death, friends, mercy, homo sapiens, finding things, swords, tridents, axes, flying humans, moving grass, broken body parts, killing, sadness, a bad author, and many more.

Amberleigh had been recklessly traveling between realms for years (accidentally, of course) unsure of how or why she continually found herself in a world called Erivale. Stuck in a not so great situation in the human realm, she escapes by literally falling into Erivale once again - although this time is different. A mysterious man traveling with a pack of wolves snatches her from the edge of death and claims to know her history. He also wants the bounty on her head. Leave it to the cold-blooded stranger to not so subtly break the news - Amberleigh was an Elf. Of course, it couldn't just stop there; she was an Elven princess. Cue adventures, sword battles, etiquette lessons, and magic. Amberleigh will need all the help she can get to make it through. The world of Erivale isn't as magical as it seems, and a mystery is unfolding - one that threatens Amberleigh's life and the freedoms of those around her. The Lost Princess is returning to Erivale, and no one, not even she, is ready for what is to come. Currently being edited.
