archmage azeroth demonhunter fanfiction journey-home khadgar legion love magic naga passion raven romance shape-shifting sorcery stormrage stormwind warcraft world-of-warcraft yearning

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?

A Song of Faithless Shadows by yourlocalsag

Gwyneth had always felt connected to her faith, a higher power presiding over her. That faith had shaken that devastating day those years ago, the day that went on to haunt her every nightmare for years to come. She's still trying to come back from it, to not only restore her faith in life and love, but her faith in herself. The sanctity of her spirit- she prayed for resolve. Every punch was a prayer. Every mile was a hymn. Until her knuckles bled and her knees gave. Azriel had been surrounded by darkness his whole life, a poison on his world, on his being. He exercised restraint in his every waking moment, banishing that darkness within himself. Some guessed of the strain it put on him, but no one knew the extent of it, how deep his scars ran. It was better this way, he was sure. He had always thought that if there were a higher power- which he wholly doubted- such deities must loathe him to have burdened him such darkness. He hadn't much faith in the gods anyway, much less faith that he could sway their opinion on him. But Gwyneth and Azriel did have one thing in common: the quiet fight within themselves. They only knew one way: to go about it alone, couldn't fathom letting another in. But there's a magic in finding someone who is your equal but opposite, something transforming. And frankly, Gwyneth and Azriel could both use a little magic. All characters owned by SJM in the ACOTAR series. Story takes place after the events of ACOSF. Aligns with the events in my other fic: A Storm of Flames and Deceit. I haven't finished Crescent City, so this story takes place outside of the events of those books as well.

Wolf at Heart by Whisper486

These people have the ability to shapeshift into particular animals when they come of age in their tribe, attending something called the Ceremony. When given the chance to escape from her family, she jumps for it, spiraling into a world of mystery, danger, and unexpected surprises.

Friends become enemies and families are reunited only to be broken apart. Whether she survives will be up to her companions as they race to right a world that has fallen drastically out of balance. * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * A haze darkened the edges of my vision and my knees buckled. This was too much, way too much. In half a day, my life had been turned upside down. Just as I was about to fall, the raven transformed into a boy and caught me. The bird had just turned into a boy. What the heck? What was an Avian doing on Lupine territory? * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * After much debate, I decided to discontinue this second book and series. I love the world and I built and the characters with all my heart but the writing is incredibly outdated and the plot progression is all over the place. I may reuse these characters in the future, but this series has come to an end. I'm sorry to the people who wished to see the story continue, but I hope you'll be able to join me on future fantastical journies once I have time to write more! * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * First Published: Dec. 20, 2018 Finished: Mar. 31, 2020 Finished Publishing: 5-23-2020

Healer by silli__lilli

Completed. AzrielxFemale OC - Slow Burn, Fluff, Smut, Soft Az. Lots of Action/Story/Other character involvement. "Coming back is like swimming up to the surface. If you almost drowned already, it takes a while to feel safe taking a breath." The Shadowsinger gets distracted on a raid by a gentle natured female that appears out of place in the camp he's just taken over. 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. All belong to Sarah J. Maas.

Grayseeder by bugmage

An ex-Illidari scholar captains a modified Legion starship to an apparently barren moon. She tests a brand new type of volatile magic there, but she and her crew hit a snag when a Titan-crafted starship dips into view carrying none other than Illidan Stormrage. According to him, the moon is actually inhabited. Illidan expects to complete his mysterious Titan-appointed Task and leave as soon as possible. He could not have foreseen the unusual dangers of the hidden alien world, nor could he have expected to confront emotions he has become such an expert at stamping out. If you want to see theories as to what Illidan is doing post-Legion, this is my headcanon. There are more threats that the Legion poses other than Sargeras, across the Universe, and who better to hunt them down? There are 22 chapters all posted in one go at 57,000 words and approx 3.7 hours of reading.

about defiance // matthew fairchild {2} by thevagabondexpress

{ snap, shatter, and howl pt. ii: being the sequel to mirror shards } Four months on from the Mandikhor attacks, Sydney Herondale is sure she's done. She's fallen in love (with Matthew Fairchild), she's starting to heal, both literally and metaphorically, from the wounds dealt to her in Romania during her travel year, she's got a flat in the City and with the mystery of her grandfather's identity solved, her research project is done and she can rest now. It's over. Or so she tells herself. You see, Sydney is magic. First that blinding rage when she goes into battle, then her strange ability to go ignored when she doesn't want people looking, and now, suddenly, she's starting to see magic, the ebb and flow and current of it like brushstrokes on Van Gogh's canvas. And if her grandfather's whispered, cryptic words are right, somehow all of these are meant to meld together to make...what? Well, she'd better find out, if she wants to make sure the magic is hers to control and hers alone. Not, of course, that anyone's making that easy.

Dragon Blood by mwendlandt

"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. As a princess and heir to the kingdom, her future was daunting enough. The fact that she turned into dragon and would be killed if anyone found out made it all the worse. So, Skylar lived in constant conflict with the beast within her, all while training to be queen one day. When a fellow king discovers her secret, she is forced to flee or put her entire family in danger. When she meets Orion, the Alpha of a dragon clan, he helps open up a whole new world to her. In this new world, Skylar discovers who she is supposed to be and what she's been hiding from. She finds the beauty of her beast and a love she only ever dreamed of. But then her new world is threatened. It becomes a matter of kill or be killed, so Skylar's new family, with the help of her old, must rise to the challenge to defeat this threat. Or risk the extinction of her kind.

A Starlit Promise by Taylor796785

In a world where magic is whispered about in hushed tones and ancient prophecies loom large, Rylla's life changes forever when war breaks out in her small village of Elderglen. 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. Rylla soon discovers that her connection to magic runs deeper than she ever imagined, and the dreams that have haunted her for years may hold the key to her destiny. Torn between the familiar and the unknown, she must decide who to trust as ancient enemies awaken, and a new darkness threatens to engulf both worlds. With Kaelith as her guide, Rylla embarks on a dangerous journey to unlock the secrets of her past and confront the truth about her identity. But Kaelith himself harbors dark secrets, and his connection to the shadowy war that tore their worlds apart might not be as innocent as it seems. Their bond deepens into something neither expected, but with tensions rising and enemies closing in, they must learn to navigate their fragile alliance-before it's too late. In a tale of love, war, and the blurred lines between light and shadow, Rylla must uncover the truth behind the prophecies that have shaped her fate, and confront the darkness that threatens to destroy everything she holds dear.

The Spellbound Union by ehlwrites

Published: May, 2023. 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 navigate their way through the treacherous landscape, battling dangerous creatures and fighting for survival against a common enemy, Raven and Zephyr find themselves inexorably drawn to each other. Their shared experiences bring them closer together, and they soon realize that their feelings run deeper than mere admiration or respect. There's an undeniable spark between them, a primal attraction that threatens to consume them both. But their burgeoning romance is not without its challenges. Raven is wary of getting too close, too focused on their quest for revenge. And Zephyr, too, is hesitant to let down his guard, scarred by a lifetime of rejection and mistrust. 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. Together, they will face the challenges ahead, knowing that they have each other's backs, and that nothing can break the bond they've forged.
