Historias de Retold

The Ambys 2021 Historical Fiction Genre Runner Up / Top 25 The Historical Award 2022 hosted by @HistoricalFiction Winifred's husband Lord Nithsdale has been sentenced to execution and held captive in the Tower of London. Boasting of burning the lives of many a reputed figures and being the end of many fighters, this tower hovers over Winifred's lovely peaceful life. But when all hell breaks loose only the cunning survives.

Welcome to the MTH version of folklores, myths, legends, and fairy tales. Some are dark and twisted while others may be fun and silly. All these stories are based on the originals that were made back in the day. This is a fun side project I work on when I get creative energy!

Starlet never meant to curse a princess. She only came to Wishtide Academy to snag a certain silver-haired boy's heart, and to get her happily ever after with sparkles on top. But fate's got jokes-and the kiss that was supposed to seal her dreams might've just started a royal disaster. Now there's a sleeping beauty, a vanishing almost-boyfriend, and a broody not-a-prince who's annoyingly immune to fairy charm. Mostly. One thing's clear: if Star wants a love story of her own, she'll have to break a few rules, rewrite a few spells- -and kiss the wrong boy for all the right reasons.

my song is love unknown and i'm on fire for you clearly dearly you don't have to be on your own I don't wanna see you alone and i'm not gonna take it back I'll never gonna say i don't mean that you're the target i'm aiming at ... -the message, coldplay-

[Featured in Humor: Bitesize Funnies reading list] In this modern and untold version of Rapunzel's fairy tale, we meet Ruben. Like Rapunzel, he's stuck in a tower, and he may or may not be royalty. That's about where their similarities end. There's no prince to save him and no long hair for him to escape with. And his happily ever after is seeming more and more like a happily never after. ~~~

A selfish young woman gets a lesson in gratitude. This is a reworking of the English fairy tale "The Well at the World's End". Written for @lgbtq's 'Coffee&Pride: #WrittenWithPride' challenge (June 2021), using the @retold prompt (I paraphrase): "While enjoying a stress-relieving mug of coffee, you see another person in the liquid, as if looking through a glass at a whole other side. Then something odd happens: you find yourself stuck in their body in their world."

Kathrin Elisabeth lived in Amarica her whole life, dreaming of being a pirate. Four years ago, the older boy down the street went missing, ran away the cops had said. After her father went off to war, he died in an acident. the last words her father had told her were, "Be strong, little pirate." She practiced her fencing and fighting untill she could best almost everyone but since her father was gone and mother, lost to childbirth, she ended up in a orphanage. She wouldn't give up like that though. At fifteen years old, now the older boy's age, what could stop her from running away? ==================================================================== I do not own Peter or any(most) other characters but K.E. is mine.

Story Snippets - a series of short stories or scenes that I have created over the years based on characters from specific cartoons, anime etc... These parodies can be a retelling of their story or just some new content focused on their show and its characters. There will be a mix of who's show will be the one focused on, which can be either recent stories and older ones - so the drawings will vary. Please enjoy and feel free to let me know what you think!!! 1. Maji Love RETOLD - The basic plot of Uta no Prince Sama, told from a different perspective (This is one of my older stories, so things may be a bit 'choppy'...)

Modern Greek Myths and old time tales retold with a twist. A little feminist sass and satire here and there.

History should be pure, scientific history. But there are other versions, less pure, less scientific but sometimes more attractive.There are historical fictions, fictionised history and alternative history. I personally feel that Alternative hisrory is most difficult to write. In this context I remember that the famous British writer Len Deighton wrote one of the best alternative history books in 1978. The sublect is what would have happened if Germany defeated Englend in the 2nd World War. Adolf Hitler lectured at a rally of nurses and social workers on 4th September, 1940. The book starts with what Hitler said- " In England they're filled with curiosity and keep asking, ' Why does not he come? Be calm. Be calm. He is coming! He is coming.'

Animal Jam Fans have heard the story of Jamaa many times, but there must be something before that... and here it is. The story of two immortal deities who effected jamaa's creations more than anyone knows, but their names are hardly known.

Meet Kaya, Katara's older sister and twin sister to Sokka, also a waterbender. This is just the same, only with an additional character. Kaya holds a quiet and calm facade, but on the inside she cares for her loved more than she could imagine. How will the story change with this girl in it?

The fairytales you know... With a twist (Most - if not all - of the time I make it gay) She would much rather exchange her sewing needle for a sword, the thimble that protects her thumb for a true shield to protect her body, but she is left, as always, to sew, sew, sew. It's not that she thinks sewing is bad - she finds herself rather in awe of those who can complete thick bands of embroidery on swathes of fabric. It's as easy as breathing for them, yet her own worst enemy. Long ago, she had been allowed to fight. When she was younger and her father alive. She had told him, "I want to be like you, to win back our family's honour," and he had replied "when you are old enough, Elena." Her father had never been able to refuse her anything. ~ from 'The Peasant Girl and the Tournament' (aka Cinderella with a few twists) Original tales are obviously not mine, but what I write belongs to me.

Ivy Morrison is your average Potterhead, but when she is visited from the most unlikely person in the world her life is anything but destroyed. 13 year old Ivy just came home from school to her little house in a small town in Kansas, when she hears a knock on the door. When she opened the door she sure as heck did not expect Tom freaking Felton to be there. Even further, he rushes in announcing that she pack her bag and get ready to leave for Hogwarts. What she doesn't realize is that Tom is not his 27 year old self, but looks about the same age as herself. Against her own will(not really, I mean it's Tom Felton, who would refuse him?) she grabs her stuff( including the Harry Potter books/movies)and heads out the door. Still unsure of what is happening he takes her to see Dumbledore; where he explains everything, well only the stuff that he knows since he himself is oblivious to the remaining facts. Ivy learns stuff she will never be able to live with even though she is kind of being forced to grow up and face the facts of what lies a head of her.

❝sing, o muse, of those who ruled on high, of women scorned and loved, and of golden crowns, and blood, and love, and war... sing, o muse, of those immortalized, golden-wreathed and ever-lauded, silver-souled and many-storied... sing, o muse, of those myths and legends, adorned, unforgotten and newly woven...❞ ⤷ a collection of myth retellings
