A prophecy has been spoken. The God of the Sky will come and with him, he will bring death. Talon Connor, a ship captain with an unusual upbringing, must gather great beings of the world and stop the Sky God before he brings a fiery end to the world of Ahnwen. An unlikely alliance is formed: a normal human with an extraordinary past, a proud pegasus prince, a dragon as black as night, a powerful wizard with a twisted soul, and a demigoddess with a dark secret. Will these individuals be able to work together and neutralize the imminent threat before it's too late, or will the spiteful deity succeed in his quest for vengeance?

Cursed: The Legend of Sleeping Beauty by BaileyBookandSketch
44 parts Complete
Long ago, the Kingdom of Alagil was cursed by a Dragon for their greed and lust for power, the Royal Family having seized the entirety of Gold Thread she made for the public, keeping it for themselves. The Dragon gave the Royals sixteen years to better themselves and teach their heir to the thone to be an honest, caring individual. If the Princess was coronated with a selfish heart everyone in the castle who had done wrong to the people would die. The top three Witches of the court decided on a plan to save the Princess and everyone else included in the curse, taking the spindle it is bound to and altering the curse so that, if it struck, they would all fall into an eternal slumber. Fifteen years later, Briar Rose is shocked to learn that the biggest threat to her daily life isn't Dragons swooping down from the sky to eat her or dying from boredom out in the middle of the woods. It's a curse that can lead to her whole countries decimation. Having been born with the Gift for Magic, she was trained to be a Curse Breaker by proclamation of High King Henric himself and now knows that her Godmothers have been preparing her to fight the Curse the Dragon bestowed at that ill-fasted Ball all those years ago. With one year to get the most practical experience possible in Curse Breaking, Briar Rose heads out with the map her Godmothers gave her, tracking down places of extreme curses while they head back to Skyfort, the castle where the cursed spindle resides, to protect it from those who would inadvertently worsen the curse they struggled to amend. Will she succeed at breaking the Curse and make her life her own or is the magic of Dragons to much for a Mortal to hope to overcome?

A world at war . . . Two rivals for the throne . . . If chosen by the six magets, one will have the throne for their own . . . In the land of Magic, all sorts of beings live together. But during this Era, the land is at war. A unicorn prince and a mermaid queen are warring to see who would be the next ruler of the land. To stop the war, a special group of people must choose. But those people are emotionally unstable magets. Luna is a Night Bringer dragon, but she isn't pureblood. She also has the abilities of a Water Sprayer and the scales of a Weather Wing. Under normal circumstances, nothing would be wrong, just would have trouble controlling extra powers. But the Night Bringers of the continent weren't open to hybrids in their species. That fact caused Luna so much pressure and stress to hide and cost her a spot at her dream school. But then comes the faithful day when she is revealed to be a part of a prophecy of her and five other magets that would stop the war. (A prophecy Luna had first, but that's beside the point) She and the other five are then thrust into a plot of conspiracy, secrets, and death, surrounded by people they don't know if they can trust or not. The pressure for Luna is only amplified by the added factor of might not being able to survive. Is this really how it's supposed to go? Is Luna going through all of this pressure for a good reason? Or are there factors she hasn't even considered? Inspired by Wings of Fire and Upside-down Magic THERE WILL BE BLOOD AND DEPRESSING THEMES! BUT TUI T. SUTHERLAND SEEMED TO GET AWAY WITH IT, AND I CAN TOO! Edit: [I am editing this story to make the story clearer and make more sense, just to let you know]
Masks of Fear and Shadow by EivorTaika
35 parts Ongoing Mature
"Between the Jaws of Fate, a spark shall ignite, born of shadow and flame, a breath against the void. Its cry will shatter the silence, a sound the gods will fear, and its steps will weave the end of all that was known. When the rivers run black and the skies open their veins, chains unseen will crumble, and what sleeps shall wake. In its veins, the threads of creation unravel, and in its shadow, the world will bow or break. Beware the herald of dusk and dawn, for its will is neither mercy nor malice, but the breaking of the wheel, and the scream of what lies beyond." Eowyn Aeloria, heir to the gods' throne in Ebonmere, has spent her life under her mother, Queen Vespera's, tyrannical rule and harsh consequences. When she has a run in with Cylas, a brooding blacksmith hiding from the shadows of his own bloodline, they discover a connection that defies the boundaries between their warring worlds- and Queen Vespera forbidding their entanglement, along with a life-changing revelation, sparks a dangerous rebellion neither of them can resist. Cylas, once a ruthless general for the Sylvaneth kingdom of Noctyra, seeks refuge from a violent past-and from his mother, Queen Elira, who has made it her life's work to eradicate Eowyn's kind from existence through any means necessary. But meeting Eowyn awakens both his heart and a power that he can no longer keep hidden. As Eowyn and Cylas battle to keep their bond secret, whispers of an ancient power and prophecy awaken, placing them in the center of a conflict that could either save their world or destroy it. Now, with the future of the people of each of their kingdoms hanging in the balance, Eowyn and Cylas must decide if they should follow the path that is already written, or to feed the Jaws of Fate. ***There may be edits and changes until the entirety of the book is completed; so I apologize in advance for that***

A maiden must marry into nobility to uphold honour in her family's name. However, when her soon-to-be husband is burned alive by a fiery creature, she realizes there's more to life than just suitors and balls. ~·~·~ As a woman, Alyria Willows is expected to cast aside her pursuit of independence to fulfil her duties as an acquiescent housewife; all for the sake of one's honour not even her own. However, the veil isn't as pellucid as Alyria thinks when a devastating upheaval leaves her grasping for answers. It's only after surviving a terrifying experience that she discovers more than blood flows through her veins. But that'll be the least of her concerns when a creature neither man nor dragon stalks her from the shadows. His gaze pierces like iron. His power radiates like lava. But even a man of his strength cannot hinder the threat that seeks to destroy. A ballet of starlight foretells a restless war. Lies will be unearthed, truths will be muddled, and victories will come at a steep price. But not everything is as it seems. After all, how can she trust a man of fire and ore when he may be the embodiment of evil itself? ________________ WARNING: crude language, depictions of violence and gore, mature content.
