    When dreams and reality combine, the wall between realms grows thinner and thinner, and a young girl finds herself in the center of it all. What started out as dreams of another life, soon turns into a quest to keep the evil of another realm from taking over her own world. Her once ordinary life is turned upside down as she is greeted with adventure, death, and even a bit of romance. Will she save her world, or will she watch it crumble at her attempt? Ryann Cassidy was an average teenage girl, caught up in a world of dreams and different lives. She often spent her time drawing the sences she had seen, the outcome of the choices she didn't make in her own life. If only she'd know they were all true, all the real happenings of those choices she'd not made, but did make. Now Death is on her doorstep, quite literally, to ask her to aid him in closing the door she had wedged open. Only, Death isn't exactly what she imagined. He was a teenage boy that she has known for her whole life.

Or will the fate of her own happiness and those whom she loves, hang in the balance?

With Merrow's gathering, waiting for midsummer's eve to claim her -- Kiera by chance, befriends a cute grey-white seal pup who protects her from being harmed by another seal. Together, Kiera learns from the seals on how to relax and find beauty in this world. However, four boys from her class had just murdered her only friend and this was the spark that had awakened her ancestor's powers -- the ocean plunging her and the deceased seal into the icy cold Atlantic Ocean.

Her once purposeless life is now thrusted deep into the dark abyss as Kiera finds herself becoming the new Selkie Maiden.

    this is a new Danmachi Rewrite story I thought of and it seems more interesting in my opinion in this story, Bell is the king of a kingdom called Babylonia, named after Babylon as it's an evolution of the kingdom in a new era, and is a direct decedent of Achilles, Hercules, Leonidas I, Gilgamesh, Arthur, and Mordred Pendragon, and Lycaon, having special power's because of it

    On the shores of western Ireland, in a drab town - a young, day-dreaming waitress hides her scars. Chained to a life of caring for an alcoholic and abusive father, twenty-year-old Clara paints herself pretty lies of days when things might just get better. But, they don't...they get exponentially worse. Death. Her death. After a run in with a senile old man who foreshadows her death, Clara is faced with her greatest reality check yet. The Faerie are real. The monsters that drove her father to drink are real. Tír na nÔg is no bedtime story, it's her purgatory. Alive and lost in the unveiled and dangerous Fae world, Clara comes face-to-face with the Spirit of the Wild - Naisi, a crownless King broken by a shadow that's corrupting the Seelie reality. With the balance of nature upturned it's not only the Fae who are at risk. As above so below. And Clara must fight every prejudice to save a life, and in doing so she might just find her reason for living. ***************** Inspired by my fanfiction series of the same title. This is a re-telling based on the origins of 'To Live Again' and my love of fairytales - especially Beauty & the Beast and Irish folklore. For original fans of my fan work I can assure that there will be both familiar faces but entirely uncharted worlds. It's definitely not the same story but the characters are a little flicker of their origins. ***Beautiful Cover Design by the lovely @Stars_Alight*** Copyright 2020

    "Masquerade" is a short story I wrote for a contest. It's a fantasy story about a girl who is drawn into a faerie party and must find a way to escape when the faerie man she meets tries to enchant her into staying. It's pretty short for short story standards, but I hope you enjoy!

    In the wind-washed west of Éire, where rain carries the memory of forgotten gods, Eithne grows into her sixteenth winter torn between two worlds. The new faith tightens its grip on her kin, yet the old ways still murmur to her in river-song and raven-cry. Her aunt demands silence; her uncle offers gentle refuge. But Eithne's soul has already been claimed by something older, something bright. When Imbolc returns, a strange dream pulls her to the battered cliffs of her homeland. There she encounters Bríg, the goddess of fire, healing, and the first trembling breath of spring-radiant as dawnlight, sorrowful as a world fading from memory. Bríg speaks to the part of Eithne that has never forgotten her ancestors' songs, awakening a gift that stirs like a spark in dry tinder. Sent to the mist-wrapped isle of Inishmaine, Eithne discovers that the boundary between mortal and divine is not a wall but a veil-thin, trembling, and eager to tear. Ancient powers gather around her, recognizing her as a bridge between belief and forgetting. The old gods are not gone; they are waiting for someone who can still hear them. As visions deepen and the air around her begins to shimmer with unseen flame, Eithne must choose whether to quiet her gift forever...or become the voice of a world slipping into shadow. For the land remembers. The gods remember. And Eithne is the spark that may yet rekindle them.
