The Codex is the most powerful relic in existence, something that Everard guards very carefully. But Cecilia has always felt there's more to the Codex, and to Everard than there seems.

The Wright by IolaJones

FULL STORY ON PATREON- COMPLETED Now Completed on Wattpad for a limited time. There are many types of witches and warlocks with varying skills and abilities in Gandheim. Being a Portaler, Healer, or Maganer will guarantee success, but the greatest of all are the Soul Wrights. With the ability to manipulate life force itself, Soul Wrights are as exceedingly dangerous as they are rare and only manifest in males. The High King Kinnut owes his position to his ability, but has maintained peace within his realms for nearly two centuries. He claims that this is due to a strict adherence to his greatest law; all Soul Wrights are put to death after a prophecy foretold the end of his reign by another. Fortunately or unfortunately for me, I showed poor magical capabilities growing up and am failing out of the Academy. Barely more useful than a human, I will be lucky to find a job cleaning sewage pipes. When Kinnut visits the Academy to eliminate the newest Soul Wright, he offers me a position in his home at Height. Not only because he could end my life with a snap of his fingers, but also because of the pressure from my family, I have no choice but to accept. Our line has always been intertwined with the King, until now. FINISHED ON PATREON HERE: https://www.patreon.com/posts/68851294

[Hiatus/Paused] The Tethered Light - In the Depths of Betrayal, a Light Emerges by TikaaniWolf

"Drawn together by fate, tested by darkness-will their bond survive the rising storm?" Celestia Pendragon is no stranger to danger. As a seasoned adventurer, she's battled her way through cursed ruins and labyrinthine dungeons, her resolve unbroken by the shadows that linger in her past. But when a harrowing curse begins to unravel her magic and haunt her very soul, Celestia sets out on a perilous journey to confront the darkness head-on. In the heart of a city steeped in secrets, Caleb Nightglen-a sharp-witted lord known for his mastery of sword and spell-becomes an unlikely ally. Haunted by his own demons and a web of deadly intrigues, Caleb sees something in Celestia that draws him into her battle. As ancient forces stir and betrayal festers in the shadows, their paths entwine in a fight for survival. With every step, Celestia and Caleb uncover truths buried deep within the world-and themselves. In a realm of light and darkness, their fragile alliance may be the only force strong enough to defy what's coming. ------ The cover is still a Work in Progress. Until further Notice, one new chapter will go online every Monday and Friday at 8 p.m. CET/MEZ

Fragments of Alchemy: The Code Keeper (Exclusively on Kindle) by ACSutliff

In a world held together by ancient magic, one girl's forbidden power could be the key to everything-or the catalyst for its destruction. Fourteen-year-old Thea Presten has never left her secluded ranch, let alone practiced Alchemy. But beneath Bergen, Norway, in the hidden halls of Blackthorn and Burtree, she's about to discover a gift that defies the very codes of magic. As war looms between the Keeper's Animarum and the Shadow Alchemists, Thea must learn to harness her dangerous abilities in secret. Thrust into a world of Conversion Circles and Alchemical beasts, Thea realizes she's been unknowingly breaking the laws of Alchemy her entire life. As she struggles to keep her powers hidden, she finds unexpected friendship with two fellow Spectrum Scholars. But with the Code Keeper and Code Breaker both potentially interested in her abilities, Thea must decide who-if anyone-she can trust. The Code Keeper has manipulated every aspect of Thea's life, pushing her towards a destiny she never chose. As global battles rage and the Earth itself seems to rebel, Thea's decisions could tip the balance of power. The Shadow Faction's leader would stop at nothing to possess her gift, while the Keeper sees her as the key to saving the world-but at what cost? Will Thea's reckless quest for control over her own life unleash a power that could mend their fractured world-or shatter it beyond repair? ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ This book is a preview of the Amazon exclusive.

The Team takes a deadly journeey through the fae forrest in search of The Gates of Damnation. As the rebellion's stakes rise, Kai must find a way to protect the Fae, heal the realm's broken balance, and reclaim the faith he once lost.

Ever since Midnight could remember, she always a long, thick scar across her nose, causing her memory to crash which made her forget all the memories she had before she reach the age of nine. The shy girl and a hot tampered girl doesn't seem like a good match to be friends. Something happens to the two of them, both of them discovering something they never expected. Something that changed their lives forever. "Do you think we should tell someone about this?" Mabel asked. "Like Archmage Calista? He's an ex-mage, like you told me. I would think that'd mean he isn't exactly... welcomed by the collage anymore. For some reason...." Midnight looked at him with her eyes filled with worry. "I've been there, I know what it exactly feels to be hated by the world. I won't let another human feel that way ever again, even if it costs my life. I will heal you from your pain." Note: @CheeseWritesStuff and I had wrote this together, but due to lack of motivation we decided to discontinue this.
