Any Spessian who comes in contact with a full Fury will die. The only way to tell them from humans is their black wings and their lust for magic. Yearning for adventure is not always a good thing. It especially isn't a good thing when there are people wasting their lives trying to find and kill you. When you're the last of your kind, you should be doing everything in your power to stay safe, but for Allegretta, this isn't the case. To her, staying in one grungy apartment with her handsome, yet overprotective, caretaker, Giovanni, is as bad as living in the Underworld.

Luz the Apprentice to Toymaker Eda of The Owl House Co. decides, yet again, to end her work day at the local Inn. I like to make my own covers, but I was impatient to post this story. Hopefully, I can update the cover with one made by me. The cover currently on this was made using canva and an AI art generator. For anyone who's curious... this story was inspired by one of my playthroughs of "Echoes of The Plum Grove" It's a life/farming Sim. I ended up marrying the Inn Keeper in my favorite playthrough, where I decided I wanted to be a Toymaker.

Disheartened by the turn of events far from in his favor, he must learn how to get by. When a Ranger visits his life is turned upside-down. Suddenly he's caught in the middle of action when all he wanted was peace and quiet, his humble village in danger, and only he can save it. -- Trigger/content warning for a little bit of blood/gore and self-sacrificial feelings. I didn't go too far with either because I cannot handle gore or want to make you upset, just enough for the plot. If you've read Flanagan's Ranger's Apprentice or Brotherband Chronicles (both for tweens and without any TW's that I know of) and been okay, you should be perfectly fine here.

(Based off the manga) Blue, Red, Green, and Vio are staying an Inn in Kakariko village during a side quest. Everything seems normal about the Inn, except the Innkeepers adopted daughter, Anna Maria, who comes from a different world. It seems Shadow Link also has a strange obsession with this girl as well... Will the four Links be able to keep her safe from the villain? [excerpt] “If you don’t mind me asking…” Red murmured, “How did you get here?” Anna Maria frowned sadly, “I don’t know. I was out with my dad on a nature walk when suddenly, these creatures jumped out a me and…” Anna Maria couldn’t stop the tears from pooling in her eyes, “and they hurt my father. They hurt him real bad. Then they grabbed me, yelled some words, and I found myself at the steps of this Inn. The Innkeeper and his wife took me in out of sympathy.”

Jovial one, friend Hurbek, come drink with us. Hurbek, the god of fire and friendships, known as the jovial one, never kept temples. He was served by innkeepers and blacksmiths, and Hurbekian worship often was indistinguishable from a night in a rowdy dwarven alehouse. Young Frek knew that he wanted to serve the Jovial one. A god with no temples caught his imagination when he was just a small boy, and that passion never wavered, but since his father, an alcoholic, died in a drunken brawl, his mother was terrified that her eldest son would end up going the same way. A shorter story in six chapters about the work and worship of the god Hurbek and how anyone, even those who loathe alcohol and the damage it can do, are welcomed and supported by holy Hurbek. This story, although technically a part of the wider Four Realms series of tales, can be enjoyed independently if readers desire. Although a little bit of minor world building might be missed, nothing is so essential that the story cannot be enjoyed independently. Note that the cover image does not belong to me.

The wind was a torrent of darkness along the gusty trees. The moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon the cloudy sees, the road was a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor, and the highwayman came riding up to the old inn door... Emerald, the daughter of a poor innkeeper, spends her days hidden away, either serving the vile men that gamble and drink in her father's inn, or caring for her violent and abusive father. Never having met another soul, beside the men at the Inn, Emerald was lonely. That is, until one night when a strange man appeared at her window, and her whole life changed forever. I do not own the plot of this story. I simply got the idea from my favorite poem "The Highwayman " by Alfred Noyes. However, everything else, including names, are mine. I added some details to the poem that were never mentioned in it, deal with it!
