Marid Stories

Zira never really fit in. She was always awful at anything that a "proper lady does with grace" and skilled at anything that had anything to do with scimitars. She scarped up money in a desert town of gangs and crime and stereotype. Until she wins the games, then gets stranded out miles away from civilization. She meets someone very much like herself...or rather, very different. Updates every week

I have built great tombs for kings, which still litter the world. I have raised mountains, created islands, and flooded plains at the whims of my masters. I have started, fought, and won great battles. I have assassinated kings and peasants alike, having no choice in the matter. I have been around since the dawn of civilization, and before. I have helped found cities, states, and even empires. I am the advisor of kings, the slave of weavers, and the conquerer of cities. Perhaps you have head of me. I am Manus.

Eadlyn, who has married Henri, is living with her family and Eikko. Secretly, she has been meeting with Eikko ever since the announcement on the Report. Meanwhile, Marid has banded together with a bunch of like-minded people in the West, to bring down the monarchy. As the deadline approaches, Eadlyn and her family must either rush to safety, to stand to unite their people against Marid and his Western Assassins.

There is a world behind the stories. A little bit twisted world full of kind Wyveraries and Marids who slip through time like tides. Who are you in this world? This Fairyland?

In the years after Illéa became a constitutional monarchy, the transition proved less simple than Queen Eadlyn had predicted, and unrest continued to grow. A new and violent faction of Northern Rebels led by Marid Illéa eventually rose up and stormed the palace killing the royal family, except for, as the rumors say, the young Princess Kerttu. Across the seas in France, Ahren Schreave, the prince consort to Queen Camille, has heard the rumors his beloved niece survived at the hands of the rebels and is willing to do anything to find her. In Illéa, a poor orphan named Kate is struggling to survive the rough world of Illéa under Marid's rule while trying to break through heavy amnesia to remember her past. When her likeness to the missing princess is spotted by two brothers looking to cash in on an offer from the French Royal Family for the return of their lost niece, Kate starts to wonder if the dreams she has of glittering palaces and the warm embrace of a mother and father are more than just her imagination. Inspired by the film and musical Anastasia and based on The Selection characters.
