FEATURED WATTPAD STORY: Dystopian and Young Adult Sci-fi OLD DRAFT, ABANDONED UNTIL FURTHER UPDATE.

Join two unlikely heroes on a strange, nonsensical, humorous and occasionally epic quest to retrieve an ancient magical artifact! The disillusioned and reluctant 'Grand' Wizard Harrold is joined by his mostly incompetent and annoyingly optimistic friend, Patricklus the Great. Together they encounter the strangest problems and device even stranger solutions. Krakens will be fought, people will die from defenestration and other similarly horrible causes, fish will fly in through the window, Gods will get angry and floors will be floors. Oh, and there's also a murder mystery in there somewhere.

"Who says I cannot be the fair princess this land wants and the brazen knight this land needs?" In the kingdom of Zortia lives a princess with the steely heart of a warrior. Princess Serilda is bored to tears of pretty dresses and the annoying gossip of court. Stifled in the palace, she finds a way to be herself and also fulfill her obligations as a princess. With her brother sitting the throne as the King of Zortia, she is able to traverse her kingdom, free from the burden of the crown. By day she journeys her kingdom as the rough knight Raxia, helping those she can and slaying burdensome monsters who dare tread on Zortia's soil. But as the curtain of dusk falls, she parades her palace as the fair princess Serilda, beloved of her people, the blushing maiden who sits beside her brother and says nothing. A delightful princess to all who meet her. On her eighteenth birthday, her life is altered when her ball is abruptly interrupted by a mysterious man claiming that she is now his property, all because of a bargain her brother struck many years ago. Confused and hurt, she can do nothing to change the fact that she is bound to the man for life because of her brother's insatiable greed. Little does she know that her brother's debtor is the prince of the Elven kingdom, Ellesmere. Prince Eralys, her handsome captor, takes her back to his land, where she learns that she needn't live two lives anymore. In the land of the elves, being a princess and a fighter are one in the same. But in a foreign kingdom, a foreign princess has few allies. It is up to her to find those who she can trust and decide her own fate, regardless of her wavering heart.

Several millennia ago a war raged between the factions of dragonkind. With their world ravaged, the Kaldean Alliance forged the Amulet of Draconic Control and the Tethering Stone, and banished their foes to other realms, saving Kalda from utter destruction. Fearing the power of the Amulet, the survivors secreted it away. But now knowledge of the Amulet has resurfaced-and in the wrong hands, war could erupt anew. Long ago, men harnessed the Channels of Power, creating tevisrals-devices capable of manifesting magic. But men weren't the only ones to accomplish such feats. Dragons crafted the most sophisticated tevisrals. These shaped the world, defining civilization of man and elf alike. Over the centuries, the people of Kalda have fallen into a dark age, where elves are estranged from men and dragons have retreated into legend. Tevisrals are scarce and men are willing to trade everything for them. But there are some who wish to bury the past, and in their lands, possessing tevisrals is tantamount to treason. Still, daring men scour the world in search of Kalda's past. One such man, the scholar Krindal, seeks an ancient order known as the Keepers of Truth and Might. He yearns for their knowledge, long feared lost. Prince Kaescis Midivar also searches for these Keepers. The assassination of his uncle, the emperor of Mindolarn, killed his hopes of peace with his empire's enemies. His empire's survival hinges upon unearthing the Keepers' secrets. An aging warrior, Cornar Dol'shir, longs to be home with his wife. But his retirement must wait, as his band of adventurers is recruited to help find the Keepers' hidden temple on the Isle of Klindala. Haunted by his tragic past, Iltar, the Son of Adrin, does not join in the search for the Keepers. Instead, he seeks to unravel the mysteries held within a volume of prophecy foretelling the advent of the Unspoken One and the return of the Crimson Eye.

Graduation is right around the corner for Ada Sinclair. She's spent all of high school saving up for her dream college and skipped high school traditions to keep her grades up for scholarships. When the acceptance letter came in the mail, every ounce of her effort felt worth it. She's spent her life being a small fish in a small pond, but eagerly awaits September so she can spread her wings and move on to big things. When her mother comes home to reveal she is in the early stages of Huntington's Disease, a disease passed down from her own mother, she can't hide from the truth she may be next in line. It is then that her plans and dreams for her future shatter. Nothing is more important to her than her family, people who need her and her strength more than Ada needs her dreams. Not knowing how much time she has left with her mother, she makes the choice to remain at home and has no regrets. Only the fear of uncertainty. Feeling like the world is crashing down on her, Ada turns to the man who's been there for her for the last four years. He'd given her the confidence she needed to become the woman she is now, held her while she cried and has been there through every struggle she's faced. He seems fully willing to be there for her again, even if that means risking his career as a teacher; her teacher. As their friendship grows stronger, they find strength in one another and a connection they can only ignore for so long, a connection that comes with life-changing consequences for them both.
