In a land where magic has been forgotten but peace has reigned for centuries, a deadly unrest is simmering. Three kingdoms grapple for power—brutally transforming their subjects' lives in the process. Amidst betrayals, bargains, and battles, four young people find their fates forever intertwined:
Cleo: A princess raised in luxury must embark on a rough and treacherous journey into enemy territory in search of a magic long thought extinct.
Jonas: Enraged at injustice, a rebel lashes out against the forces of oppression that have kept his country impoverished—and finds himself the leader of a people's revolution centuries in the making.
Lucia: A girl adopted at birth into a royal family discovers the truth about her past—and the supernatural legacy she is destined to wield.
Magnus: Bred for aggression and trained to conquer, a firstborn son begins to realize that the heart can be more lethal than the sword. . . .
The only outcome that's certain is that kingdoms will fall. Who will emerge triumphant when all they know has collapsed?

As the Crow Falls | ✔
Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.

Author, Rewrite This Story
[From the stories of Azuden0, Volume 2. Pride, the Enlightenment. Chapter 1, Birth of Magecraft] Prologue: Khiel, an uprising novel writer, known for writing fantasy love stories, especially boy's love. Readers clung to his tales, enchanted by the vivid worlds, the palpable yearning between characters, and the depth of emotion that ran through every page. The titles were acclaimed. The plots, genius. The themes? Unforgettable. But the endings? They shattered hearts, no matter how beautiful the beginning. Khiel's stories always ended in ruin. His characters always end in tragedy. The love always fell. Not once had the main characters escaped fate. The tragedy was not just the theme, it was his fingerprint. No matter the cries for happiness, no matter the pleading letters from readers begging for mercy. His characters were doomed. They earned him the name "The Heartbreak King of Fantasy". Then came the latest book, their breaking point. A massive number of readers across the continent rose in uproar. Demanding a change, they seek a good ending, an ending where all the sacrifices and hardship that the main lead SHOULD be rewarded. He tried to deny their protest, protect his pride, his art. But stories have teeth. His newest tale turned on him. And what would you do if you, yourself, had been transported to that story? Would you dare rewrite the story to save yourself, or let the story proceed to what it was? And what if you dare not change it, and your life could be at risk? Would you dare stay idle and watch that world unfold into the chaos you, yourself, created? ©Azuden0 All Rights Reserved Book cover done in Canva, photos from Pinterest.

The Villainess Won't Play
Selena Ashford's life was nothing but a monotonous shell-until one fateful morning, she wakes up as Seraphina Ashenveil, the villainess of the very fantasy romance she despises: Whispers of Hearts. Known for its twisted plots and the inevitable death of its villainess, Selena's new life is a nightmare. Ugh.. Why this stupid book!? As Seraphina, she is surrounded by two figures who mark her doom: her ruthless father, Aldric Ashenveil, and the male lead, Caius Valerian, whose cold indifference promises only betrayal. But fate throws her an unexpected twist-she crosses paths with Killian Valmond, the second male lead, a fiercely loyal and annoyingly arrogant knight who dies in a most pathetic yet stupid way for the female lead. Tsk, Cliché. But he is not leaving her side. He sticks with her like she's something which either needs to be guarded or protected. She can't tell which. Stupid Man. Seeking refuge, Seraphina hides in a small village, where the kind-hearted locals accept her without asking questions. Despite her growing frustrations with Killian's persistent presence, she begins to question everything she thought she knew about her new reality. Something is off-no one seems to be playing by the rules of the story, and the characters seem eerily alive, drifting away from their roles as if the book itself was a mere myth. Or Maybe.. Is it? Slowly, Selena uncovers unsettling truths that suggest her life, the worlds, everything might be a lie. As the lines between fiction and reality blur, Seraphina must decide if she can carve her own path to survival or if she's destined for a fate far worse than the book ever predicted.Complete
OUTLAWED
Elara, a young girl born into a broken world, where the royal family holds absolute power and mages-those with the ability to manipulate the elements-are hunted to the death. After witnessing the brutal murder of her father at the hands of the royal family, Elara's mother hides her daughter's identity, pretending to be the mage in order to protect her. But when the royal family learns of a new mage bearing a powerful mark, they arrive at Elara's home, and her mother sacrifices herself to save her daughter. With her mother's death haunting her and the royal family's forces hot on her trail, Elara flees into the woods, unveiling the magic she's kept hidden for years. In the depths of the forest, Elara discovers a hidden group of mages-boys and girls, families-each with their own elemental power: fire, water, earth, air, blood, metal, and ice. For the first time in her life, Elara is not alone. But her refuge is fragile. As the royal family intensifies its search, Elara must decide whether to stay hidden in the shadows or rise up with these newfound allies to reclaim her life and bring justice to those who destroyed her family. With vengeance in her heart, Elara's journey becomes a fight for survival, and a rebellion against the oppressive rule that has outlawed her very existence.
The hidden heir:Beyond the crown
In the high-tech, magic-touched kingdom of **Aurelia**, every royal is born into the spotlight - except one. **Princess Elara Vale**, the youngest child of the royal family, was hidden from the world after a prophecy declared she would "awaken what was lost." To keep her safe, her parents erased her existence from public records. She grew up surrounded by love from her siblings but always behind walls, longing to see the world for herself. When her secret is accidentally leaked, Elara runs away - not in rebellion, but in search of freedom, identity, and purpose. In the neon city of **Ravenport**, she meets **Kael Arden**, a quiet mechanic with no memory of his childhood and a strange amulet that glows in her presence. As they form a bond, they're joined by a group of unexpected friends - a hacker, a healer, and a street magician - each searching for their own truth. Together, they discover that Kael is the lost prince of the long-vanished Shadow Realm, kidnapped at birth, and that the prophecy ties both of them to the future of their worlds. Through their journey, Elara learns what it means to live beyond a title. Kael learns what it means to belong. And their friends - ordinary people with extraordinary hearts - become the family they choose. It's a story about **finding friendship, courage, and self-worth** in a world that often defines you by what you were born to be - not who you choose to become.
