Steampunk-ish Histoires

Floresta, a realm of secrets and mysteries. A world inhabited by strange creatures and diverse forms of magic. A compilation of tales, narrated by the cultures of Floresta and penned by the bloodmage Nelkori Sjowllimijn.

Elliot Phorus, the governor of Fluie, a small city isolated from the rest of the land by a thick forest on all sides, is joined by her mysterious companion, Lydia Blackwater, as she attempts to make sense of the strange reports from employees working at a nearby silver mine.

When Lyana Corbray and Jade Miwaldre met for the first time in the forest of Corronda they didn't expect to live together in a house let alone become friends of some sort. Lyana working as a head hunter runs into Jade, who survives the daily expanses as a thief. They have mutual friends and share the same amount of joy over weapons and a good drink, or two. There are lies, deaths, treasures, demons and gods, shiny and expensive weapons, there might even be love somewhere. It will be a big adventure. And there is always a dog for company.

I wrote this for a writing competition at school, but because we are currently in a Poetry unit, they only looked at the Poetry submissions. I was obviously a bit mad, but I still wanted this to get out into the world so I posted it on Wattpad. I hope you enjoy the story I poured my heart and soul into, for it to be ignored.
