Folklore Stories

Taylor never meant to fall for anyone in 2023. Not when she was raising a two-year-old entirely on her own, building a tour that swallowed continents, and trying to stitch her heart back together between soundchecks. Evie was her whole world - clingy, chaotic, brilliant, and hers in every possible way. Her father drifted out long before Evie learned to say "mama," and Taylor learned to stand on her own two feet because there was no one else to do it. Every stop on the first leg of the Eras Tour was a blur of glitter, exhaustion, and toddler snacks crushed into carpet. Days were for rehearsals; nights were for rocking Evie to sleep in hotel rooms lit only by the glow of the city outside. Kansas City was supposed to be just another stop. Another show. Another sleepless night. Then one night turned into fate. It wasn't planned. It wasn't logical. It definitely wasn't in her carefully guarded rulebook. But one chance encounter in Kansas City sparked something she hadn't felt in years - something warm, something steady, something that made her remember she wasn't just a mom and a performer... she was a woman who could still feel butterflies. He wasn't supposed to matter, but he made Evie laugh like they'd known each other for years. And when her daughter looked at him like he was the sun finally coming out, Taylor felt her walls shift. Now she's caught between the roar of stadium crowds and the quiet possibility of a future she never dared to imagine. Because some nights you perform. And some nights... you fall. Kansas City was just a tour stop. Until it wasn't.

She'd hidden everything under the guise of nonchalance, but all it took was one curious blonde to see through the mask for all of that to begin to unravel... Set post Era's Tour, not following a strict to real life timeline.

Silverhollow Academy was supposed to be a fresh start. For Sampaguita Catacutan, it's just another transfer, another set of halls, another attempt to outrun the dreams that haunt her. But the moment she steps through the gates, destiny follows. A fragrance - delicate, eternal, impossible to escape - binds her to two very different souls: - Alexei Lavoie, the cold, celestial professor whose piercing gaze strips away every mask. - Noah Lavoie, the rebel son hiding behind a hoodie, whose silence conceals a heart already unraveling. Both are drawn to her. Both are dangerous. And within the academy's gothic walls, secrets bloom like blossoms in the mist - secrets.

War consumes Rome. Demons descend. In the ruins of faith and fire, Azazel Weyer stands between the dying world and the gates of Hell. Burdened by his lineage and haunted by his grandfather's voice, he must master powers and learn the knowledge he barely understands. "He took the name Azazel not out of admiration-but rebellion. Something sharp to cut their doctrine. Something unholy to spit in their holy water."

I VOLUME OF "THE LAST FAITH". In the forgotten village of Myrnyi, surrounded by the creeping dread of the Drowned Forest, something ancient awakens. The whispers in the night are no longer just tales of vengeful spirits-they are warnings.

Bound by the sacred duty of the Zenko, Enji must guard Rento from dangers lurking beyond the human world. But as the mission unfolds, the kitsune finds something far more dangerous than any spirit - his growing feelings for the boy he was sent to protect. And he is not the only one watching. A Yako spirit lurks in the shadows, following Rento's every move.

Himiko was born from Japanese parents, but she was raised in the US. Never had her parents once mentioned about their native land. Then one day, everything she knew vanished and she was summoned back by sea..

Some stories are meant to stay untold. But the fire is hungry, and secrets burn brightest in the dark. When a group of friends gathers around a campfire on a quiet night in the woods, they each bring with them a ghost story-tales rooted in whispers, shadows, and urban legends from across India. But as the night stretches on, the line between fiction and reality begins to blur. Each tale is darker than the last. And something in the forest is listening...

Rin Fujiwara has always seen the things that hide in the dark. Shadows that breathe. Spirits that linger. A whisper of power curling beneath her skin. After a supernatural attack, Rin is taken to the Fujiwara estate - an ancient place ruled by a Great-Grandmother whose spiritual strength is matched only by her cruelty. Here, yokai walk the halls. Secrets rot beneath the floorboards. And Rin's own awakening power becomes both weapon and curse. To survive, Rin must learn the rules of this dangerous world - or be broken by it. But mastering her spiritual energy may come at a cost she never imagined. A dark, emotional coming-of-age tale steeped in Japanese folklore, family bonds, trauma, and forbidden power.

A fairy-tale-esque short story, which deliberately adopts folklore-like writing, using personified cosmic forces to explore love as mutual illumination rather than possession. No placement, but this tale has gotten a 95/100 in the Triquetra Awards Short Story category!

A band on the run. Two lost on back roads and borrowed stages, becoming legends they never asked to be. A boy survives a killing, and a knife changes everything. Nothing stays simple after that. Kid falls fast-chasing love in every woman he meets, believing each one might be the answer. But it never lasts. Two voices won't let him rest: Midnight whispers: leave. Be free. Dawn answers: stay. Be known. He wants both. He loses both. Chance only falls once-and it breaks him. So he turns to the road, the music, and the spaces between towns, trying to become something that can survive what he's become. When their paths begin to cross, love becomes heavier than desire. A force. A cost. A choice neither of them is ready to make. Because freedom and love don't come clean. And staying always asks for something in return. Kid and Chance are two sides of the same coin, navigating a Modern Western steeped in magical realism, ancestral myths, and the high‑stakes world of honky‑tonks and rock legends. ✨ Magical Realism | 🏜️ Modern Western | 🎸 Musician POV "Some men learn how to change. The rest become The Dead Cowboys."

Everyone has a destiny. Everyone, including Riva Wrydon. Riva thought she was just an average girl from the small village of Ravenscreg. Her life was the same pretty much every day, church on Sundays, school every day of the week, hanging out with her best friend, Elowen and her sister, Vesper. She thought her life was just ordinary. That is, until the God of Death visited her in her sleep and told her that she was to meet up in a library with a God, and that they must work together. With that cryptic clue to her destiny, Riva took her best lifelong friend, Elowen, and ran headfirst into the storm. The problem with running headfirst into a storm is that you can't see where you're going, and when she begins to realise she's in over her head, it's too late. Suddenly, she's thrust into a world she never could've imagined would exist. Armed with a talking pigeon and a guinea pig on a leash, when she meets the God Atlas, she finds out that she plays a much bigger role in all of this, and that her lifelong friend might not be who he says he is. Just where does she come in, and why is she only now finding out about it?
