There are strange creatures in the water - and TEMPEST RAERIR is tasked with keeping them there. The gods have long since abandoned the Queendom of Khaedel, letting monsters of the deep plague the land with sickness and death. She defends the shores and kills anything that dares to step onto the sand. When one of the queens of Khaedel - Tempest's mentor - falls ill, her duty switches to saving who she cares about most. And she just might be the key to saving everyone. The deeper you go into the Arnstar Ocean, the more powerful the creatures become, and THE WARDEN'S duty is to keep them all in line. For centuries, the magic keeping the most depraved monsters at bay has been waning. Now that cracks have cut through the surface, the Warden faces no choice but to obtain the help of the beings that despise them the most. Tempest and the Warden must band together and venture as far down into the Arnstar Ocean as they can to seal the fissures. Only, getting there might not be as easy as they thought. Can they survive the battles with the leviathans that lurk in the darkness? Or will they prove the gods right that the land is hopeless? ONGOING 2026 © -DeeIsDead-

While on the run from her abusive older brother, her only remaining family, Adalie comes across a severely injured forest spirit named Koa, who begs Adalie for help. Adalie takes them to nearby ruins of a grand old manor, where the spirit explains that they were attacked by a dangerous creature known as The Hybrid, a minion of the Dark Emperor Kaldareth. He rules over the Isen forest with an iron fist, so when he heard the locals whispering about a secret prophecy, one that speaks of a human girl leading to his downfall, he sent out his minions on a relentless search, attacking innocent spirits and animals, questioning them on whether they've seen her, and then killing them, so the girl won't know of her destiny should she come across one of his victims. Luckily, the Hybrid was sloppy, and Koa is still alive... but barely. They strike a deal with Adalie. I exchange for her help in collecting the ingredients required to make a potion which will save them, Koa will free her from living her brother. So Adalie sets out on a dangerous quest, aided by a mysterious yet strikingly handsome river spirit, Zyair. Thrown into a dark new fantasy world crawling with watchful eyes and lingering threats, will Adalie succeed and save Koa? Or will she be captured by the cruel Emperor whose only goal is to kill her?

For most of her twenty-one years of life, 𝙍𝙤𝙨𝙖𝙡𝙮𝙣 has lived in a gilded cage. Though as any young woman would, the princess longs for one thing only; freedom. Freedom to run into the sea, to dance under the sun... to be her very own. Sadly, as merely a pawn in a king's game and with war looming on the horizon, she is asked to put aside desire for duty. Destined to wed 𝙎𝙚𝙗𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙖𝙣. A rakish brute of a prince from a heathen country without summer, in need of an heir and a broodmare to produce it. However, when an attempt is made on her life, Rosalyn is assigned a sworn-protector. 𝙎𝙞𝙧 𝙂𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙡𝙩 The Butcher; a faceless knight of the Faith and retired crusader with haunted eyes and a penchant for gardening. The soft-spoken knight is unlike anyone she's ever met. A grumpy enigma always hidden beneath a helm. 𝘐𝘧 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘺 𝘴𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘴𝘦𝘦 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘧𝘢𝘤𝘦... When the threat of war increases, The Butcher is tasked with transporting the princess in secret. A perilous journey that will test not only Geralt's skill as a knight, his faith, his patience, but perhaps even his self control as a mere man. For when forbidden desire blooms, two questions arise: 𝘞𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘎𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘭𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘴𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘢𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘰𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘴 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘢 𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴? 𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘙𝘰𝘴𝘢𝘭𝘺𝘯 𝘱𝘶𝘵 𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘮 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘰𝘯𝘦... 𝙜𝙤𝙤𝙙 𝙠𝙣𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩?

Contrary to popular belief, it does not pay to be an exorcist in the Catholic Church. Few ever survive their encounters with supernatural forces, making it one of the most feared tasked someone may be given. After punching a member of his congregation, the newest incident in a long list of transgressions, the hot-blooded priest Caleb is given an ultimatum: become an exorcist or face excommunication. Not seeing much choice, he chooses to become an exorcist and is shipped off to Moor Abbey, better known among the clergy as 'Exorcism Row'. But thankfully, he is not alone, as he soon partners with a mysterious nun, Bonnie, with a trump card up her sleeve: she is a bona-fide psychic medium who can channel and use spirits. Being the newest members to be sentenced to Exorcism Row, they are tasked with the unsavory mission of clearing out a haunted farm with a sordid and murderous history. However, they quickly learn that this farm is just the beginning, and the true horrors go much further. How far will Man's anger go? Content Warning ⚠ : Blood, guts and other gore; Body horror; some lgbtq+ characters, though this isn't a major theme; some language; oh, and this is a story about faith and the lack thereof. Different characters will have different views on religion, so do not read them as representative of an entire faith.

When Nina lands a modeling contract in LA, she's thrown headfirst into a world of flashing cameras, ruthless competition, and a loneliness she never expected. Then she meets Rex - the magnetic lead singer of a rock band on the edge of their big break. He's charming, reckless, impossible to ignore... and exactly the kind of trouble she promised herself to avoid.
