Beneath broken stone and warped metal, a solitary raven panics as it senses imminent danger. It escapes certain death mere seconds before the structure finally crashes to the ground. On soaring above the devastation, the bird spies a wet-eyed woman, and her image is oddly emblazoned on its mind.
Pulled inexorably towards the north of the Eastern Kingdoms, the bird's experiences give rise to dreams of the wet-eyed woman, and eventually, memories start to slot into place:-
War against the Void Lords.
The Dark Portal collapsing.
The necessity to shape-shift within the time portal.
Consequences.
Sarah.
Illidan.
And a journal with a spell to revert the raven to the man he truly is - Archmage Khadgar.
But have Sarah and Illidan found the journal?
Making his way to Stormwind, the bird overhears devastating news - he is believed dead, and a state funeral is pending.
Despair fills him as his only hope to be whole again is growing ever more distant - the journal has gone undiscovered.
Is there a way he can let Sarah and Illidan know he is alive? Or is he doomed to remain a raven for all time?

Caught in the crossfire, she is saved by a mysterious stranger, Kaelith, a man who walks in shadows and seems to know far more about the world than he lets on. As Rylla grapples with the loss of her home, she finds herself drawn into a web of secrets, prophecies, and a long-buried war between two worlds-the human realm and the fae.

In the sprawling forests of the Pacific Northwest, where the air is thick with magic and danger lurks in every shadow, a chance encounter between Raven, a powerful witch, and Zephyr, a brooding werewolf, sets off a chain of events that neither of them could have anticipated.

As they grapple with their feelings, Raven and Zephyr must also confront the reality of the dangerous world they inhabit. For the enemy they face is powerful and cunning, and their fight for survival will demand everything they have to give. Yet amidst the chaos and the danger, Raven and Zephyr find hope. They find a new beginning, a chance to start over and build something real and lasting.

"Do you remember calling me 'mate?'" he asked softly, pushing her wild curls away from her face. She blushed deeply, but he wouldn't let her look away. "You heard that?" He nodded with a smile. "It was the first thought she ever shared with me." Skylar pursed her lips. "She likes you very much." "What about you?" he teased gently. "How do you feel about me?" She set her jaw and once again managed to look down her nose at him while staring up at him. "Well... well, I'm rather fond of you, Orion." He let out a relieved laugh and pulled her into his chest again. "What a relief. I was worried it was just me." He nuzzled her temple, inhaling deeply, his dragon fully at peace. The words "I love you" were right on the tip of his tongue, but he knew it was too soon for that. He would have to hold them in just a little while longer. "I'm fond of you, too," he whispered in her ear. <><><><><><><><> Skylar lived her life in fear. Fear of exposure, fear of herself, and fear of her future.

The Wolf Witch by cheeseisjar
9 parts Complete Mature
Sora has no place in the world. She is meant to be a strong warrior, with the ability to shift into a wolf. She is none of those things, and looked down upon because of it. It brings shame to her, it brings shame to her family, and worst of all, it brings shame upon her prideful and strong brother. There is but one person who truly knows and loves her, but does he really? Magic is not the weapon of a warrior, magic is the weapon of a coward. Sora has been told that all her life, but she has magic within her, recently awakened, and so she has begun to doubt it. Still, witchcraft is punishable by death, and so Sora must be careful with her practices, lest she lose all she has. Sora is a better witch than wolf, though not by much, but she still pursues that craft in spite of the dangers. Her place in the world is a dangerous one, but will it last? The world she lives in is a dangerous one, and such a life as hers rarely ends happily. Disclaimer: this is a short prequel, Sora's story does not conclude with this one. If you finish this book and go "oh, that's the end?" it's because it's not the end. I'm writing a trilogy called Mortance that explores the larger world that this takes place in and concludes Sora's story more thoroughly than in this book. Go read that next if you like my writing, thanks. Please leave any and all criticisms you might have, anything you like and anything you dislike, I want to make this as good as I can. P.S. the cover is literally just a drawing I made in physics class, I know it's bad, I'm not an artist.

He gets his job done, but takes critical moments to pull her aside and offer her refuge in his home city of Velaris. The risk of their conversation costs him, and the next few months are spent overcoming the repercussions, both physical and emotional. Dark magic swirls in Prythian, calling on spells more ancient than the High Lords and Ladies have seen in centuries and wreaking havoc on those who are too young to even recognize the source. A war is brewing and a quiet battle is already raging for the loyalty of the only healer in Prythian possessing the skills to identify and fight back against the sorcery. How will young and old, light and dark, pain and forgiveness, come together to save the land, and each other? Disclaimer: I own none of the characters or places referenced here.
