Historias de Epic-

They all knew someone would be chosen. But when the name was proclaimed in the Great Hall, a low ripple of emotion moved through the Storytellers and Sages - shock, relief, and a deep sadness settling over them all. The Slayers stood at attention, silent and unmoving, but every one of them felt the weight of what had just been spoken. **"Barnabas..."** They leaned toward one another, their voices barely above breath. **"Then again... who else but Barnabas? He is the best. If any can survive the Unknown, it will be him."** Barnabas was more than a Slayer - he was *their* Slayer. Tracking beasts was child's play to him. His sword stroke was death every time. He trained harder, fought fiercer, rose earlier, and returned from quests others would have died attempting. He had been injured many times, but he always recovered and came back with a vengeance. Since the death of his wife, he took every battle personally. He never backed down. He never failed. And long before all of that, the villagers whispered of the night he was found as a Toddle - the storm, the crash, the shattered cottage, the immense tree that crushed everything except the crying child nestled safely among its leaves. The hand of the Creator had been on him that night, and many believed it stayed on him as he grew. His adopted father, Daniel, always said Barnabas was called for a special purpose. But destiny is never simple. A wound nearly killed him. The healers warned him: **If you quest again, you will die.** The choice was his - and he chose life, laying down his sword to become a Storyteller. He believed the calling on his life had ended. He was wrong. When the Creator summons him a second time, Barnabas must walk a quest he cannot survive - with a wound that could betray him at any moment, and a destiny that has followed him since the night he was pulled from the leaves. A tale of calling, sacrifice, and the courage to rise when destiny knocks twice.

150 years... That's how long the war has been going on in Equilibria: between the United Federation of Tachyon, a technologically advanced empire, and the Arcane Order of Seirion, a powerful magical empire. This long and unending war of conquest and expansion has led to many suffering in this world, as those who were in between them were squashed underneath the feet of the marching force. Occasionally, some people in this world may obtain resolites, a mysterious white crystal capable of transforming into powerful melee weapons. Although its inner workings and reason for existence are unknown, those with resolites, also known as resolutors, were hunted down by the empires as a key to creating elite warriors enhanced with the power of resolites. One such resolutor was Lorian Ashwood, who had obtained a particularly powerful resolite after his home village, Tragula, was destroyed by a mysterious ray of light coming from the sky, destroying everything in its path, including the soldiers from both empires fighting to capture his village. Nobody, not even the powerful empires, knew who was behind it. Eager to know what happened, Lorian ended up joining an aviator group known as the Strife Striders, and together, they went on a journey across the two empires to seek the truth as they completed a task from the King of Machiaville. In their journey, Lorian got to see the world from different perspectives as he interacted with imperial locals, while fighting against the Imperial forces and authority, who were constantly seeking to capture him for the reason mentioned before. Eventually, his eye-opening and arduous journey would develop him into becoming a resolute and just person, known as a Concordian. __________________________________________ Concordian of the Two Ends is now available on both Wattpad and Royal Road!

[Wattys2018 Shortlist] [Bootcamp Mentorship Mentee 2020] [Insidious Awards - 1st place/Action/Adventure] "Squinty, I... Help me! Please! You have to help me!" Squinty huffed at him as the horse might snort at an annoying fly it couldn't get rid of. "A...a... an apple," he stammered. "I just... stole an apple!" ---- When water is controlled by those in power, even a mere apple can be a catalyst. For Squinty, it was the start of everything. Finding Grizzly. Losing Roko. Becoming a Vigil. Discovering she had the power to become invisible. For Nalina, the threat of a new Water War was even closer to home; her beloved brother was the one initiating it. To Drian, water formed the core of his belief system, defined who was - and was not - worthy, and justified the treatment of the underground-dwelling Wellers. An orphan girl, determined to do what was right. A princess, petitioning for peace. An abbot, torn between his religion, and his experience. Each with an Etching, a unique power that surely makes them special; a tie to something more, something extra, something beyond the Squareworld.

Are the events transpiring around Xavier the will of God and what will lead him to become the hero of his own world, or are they outside even Her will?

An intimate fantasy tale, told in the stylings of an epic Asian drama, inspired by sweeping Chinese tragic story-telling, and dressed in a fictional fusion of Far Eastern mysticism and elements of steam culture. Turn the silk veil on a world forbidden from common eyes where children sail airships across the sky, a young emperor faces the tattered remains of his empire, a warlord stands on the brink of total conquest, and a gifted young boy embarks on a remarkable odyssey of triumph and sacrifice. Terr hardly knew the incredible future that awaited him when, for the first time, he laid his eyes upon the ether, a mysterious force visible only to a special group of children who are endowed with the divine ability to levitate airships and change the very will of the sky itself. Like all those who shared in his supernatural talents, he would be thrust into a secret world steeped in oriental traditions, be revered by monks and priests, sold by eager merchants, and abused by a rebellious military, lead by an ambitious warlord that would seek to unite all under heaven. In his sadly fallible, yet all-too-human journey, he would face the corruption of the Imperial Courts, be thrown into banishment as the servant of an exiled son of the Imperial Family, and eventually suffer the terrible horrors of a world war, which threatens to end all he holds dear. But as Terr and his dying country careen into the depths of a world torn by vengeance and prejudice, he would come to discover that even a humble child of the sky can still change the course of fate.

Her life has been filled with excitement and reckless abandon, but how long can she outrun the tempests she leaves in her wake? Just a girl when her father was sealed away in an untouchable realm, Lulu has devoted her life to finding a way to bring him back. Her obsession has taken her across the stars, journeying to every known world of Ishara with her best friend, Idelle, at her side. Never ones to pass up the opportunity for trouble, they have made a life out of journeying across the realms, using their skills to help those in need or, in Lulu's case, using stories of their adventures to woo beautiful women. Her quest has seen countless failures, but a new lead, an ancient relic known as the Compass of Nine, promises to reignite her hope. Yet, it is at that very moment when she is drawn into a conflict by her hated cousin, Orianna, a woman called Savior by The Path of Light.

[250,000 words already written... New chapters being uploaded 2-3 times weekly!] The world is normal again...mostly. The refuges have been abandoned, cities have been rebuilt, and the great storms that rained glass and made the air itself crackle with deadly energy have not been seen by any living human. All signs of the Brothers and the destruction they wrought have at last been worn away by time to little more than third-hand tellings of distant memories, twice forgotten... Mostly. The moon still hangs broken in the sky, two halves slowly circling each other in an unending dance; the blood of the Brother's distant descendants still sometimes sings with the faint echos of their God-like powers; and old taboos still run deep. How do you kill beings wielding the powers of Gods? You don't. You send them though a world gate and pray they never find their way back. But never is an awfully long time and some will risk the world itself to harness that power, consequences be damned.
