"There are two kind of men.
Ones who fight and kill and ones who roll over and die."

The young world of Aestruin is yet ruled by sharp steel and vicious warriors. 
To kill and maim means to stand at the top.
And none kill better than the Ravian hordes of Glumath.
But although their skill is surpassed by none, they long for little more than the heat of battle.

Though violence rules all, there are many clans turning away from warfare and murder, instead turning to trade and politics, a form of war that, while bloodless, is no less ruthless.

There are many stories to tell of a growing world, many different men and women who shape the it and its inhabitants or are shaped by it.

Forsaken: The Chosen Trilogy - Book One by RKSHobbs

Before you begin this story, I must warn you first. This is not a tale of dashing knights and lovely damsels awaiting rescue. It is not the tale of happy endings, with birdsong and rides into the sunset. It is a tale of light magic and dark, of dragons and monsters, of heroes and villains and the thin line between them. This is the tale of being broken, being made stronger, and then being broken again. This is a story of love of heartbreak so great if feels like your chest has been hollowed out and scraped clean, like you would never feel anything else ever again, and of love so powerful it can make even the gods tremble. This is not a happy story, but it is our story, and it is the only one I know how to tell. ********************** FORSAKEN is the first tale in the Saga of Darkness, following six brothers and sisters who have been named the Chosen of the Gods, destined to fight a great darkness that threatens their world. But evil wears many faces, and it will take the efforts of all- Kryssa, Brannyn, Lanya, Kylee, Alyxen, and Reyce- to survive the harrowing trials to come. ********************** FORSAKEN is a completed novel, being posted as a serial. Books Two through Five in the Saga of Darkness are also complete. Chapters posted every Monday and Friday.

Stars of Freedom by AstraeaSOF

"To tell you a story, you'd need to know how different things were back then. The world was filled with creatures who could destroy us at any moment. Some people even managed to control them, not that they stood a chance. Anyways, there were also gods and goddesses who sometimes watched over us-not all of them were good people, keep in mind. With that out of the way, let's begin..." • Volume 1 | Phoenix | Chapters 1 - 24 A world full of monsters from every mythology and people who can summon weapons to defeat them at will. A few groups of special people abruptly unite to fight a threat that has watched them for some time. • Volume 2 | Nexus | Chapters 25 - 75 Though nine years pass, some people never really forgot that day. After all that happened so suddenly, a few people remain. Bound together by the strings of life, a new enemy appears to disrupt their lives. • Volume 3 | Freedom | Chapter 76 - 140 Bound together, the group wants nothing more than to return to normal lives after such a crazy journey. Will they finally reach a happy ending? Or will someone else tell their story for them?

Beyond the Books by LeeraIvy

This book is a collection of short stories based off the characters and events set forth in my previous ACOTAR fanfictions. The short stories in this book are all scenes that were either mentioned or not depicted in the fanfictions themselves. The stories will not follow a set order when added into this book, but I will be sure to provide the names of the characters featured in each story, as well as the title and chapter number(s) it takes place in at the start of each story. Please note that this book probably won't be updated regularly as it's just a fun side project for me to do in my spare time. Disclaimer: I do not own the ACOTAR series or the characters and places therein. I take credit only for this story and my original characters. These stories follow the storyline I have set out in my previous fanfictions. These stories may not fall in line with the actual storyline once the ACOTAR series is continued, and they will NOT be updated to match it. Warning: This book, while being a work of fiction, still deals with real elements. There will be chapters dealing with sexual content, abuse, depression, gore, PTSD, and other topics which some might find triggering.

None knew of her power or what she would do in the future if she became queen, so the throne was given to the second son in hopes he would save their house from possible ruin. Over the course of her life, she was neglected by her mother for being different like the "demons of the west." She began to harden as the years passed her by and the abuse she endured intensified until one day, she snapped, killing someone. The queen sends her away in order to keep the nobles at bay but little did she know that her decision to do so would cause the fall of everything she held dear. The fall of Vequera.

The Last Avian Soldier (The Nine Realms Universe) by ren_writes_words

We're all pawns in this game played by those on top. From the moment we can process what they're telling us, we're led to believe that we must kneel before superiority. Bow our heads to the kings and queens, the powerful men and women who sit high on their thrones. To them, we are nothing but tools, obstacles, and threats. For this life is nothing but a constant battle between immortals. The individuals on the pedestals, and the ones in the dirt. So, how may we get out? How much blood will be spilled, tears shed, final breaths taken, before this is all over? People are lost in the game. They don't come back. Sons and daughters, parents, siblings... all slaughtered in this power play. Through all of this I have lost. I walk upon the shattered past left in my wake. I wish for death to finally arrive, but it never does. There's a crown of death atop my head and there's nothing I can do to change it. We were ready to make a difference. When death came to our doorstep we refused to let it take us, not without a fight, but it was a futile attempt. No one can stand in the way of a king starved for the power of it all. Tainted by ambition and violence. And with that, two thousand soldiers drew their swords for a war they would not win.

War Surrounded By Stars: Blood Can't Be Washed Off By Blood by DavidEbenstein

In the end, it's the small ones that suffer. Only their bodies are scattered across the battlefields, full of wounds, arrows, and hate in their hearts, which, like poison, runs through their veins, contaminating both the body and soul. They are subject to the sharp words of those great beings that constantly play around with the lives of strangers, hidden from the eyes of those who die for them, hidden in their castles that the little souls can't reach. And while the vultures slowly cut up the bodies of the fallen warriors, their spirits walk across the battlefield trying to figure out why they were killing and why they ended up dead. Why the empty eyes of their bodies stare into the dull sky, looking up at the castles of those who are greater than them and who are still alive and healthy, only now, with a smaller number of beings who will leave their lives on the meadows for them, hoping that the greater ones will honor the sacrifice that they have made at the altar of the homeland. After all, there is nothing more sacred than an artificial creation, such as the homeland, for which one gives his or her life, the one thing that someone lives for, the one thing that is worth dying for. Life is transient, consumable. Death is the one thing that cannot be avoided. Whether it comes in the form of a sword, poison or age, it is always present. The spirits of the dead are constantly awake, forever with open arms, welcoming those who are about to arrive. Death is a part of life and life is transient. Death does not choose, and life doesn't forgive. In the end, we will all become dust and ashes.

The End Of An Age by MagnusSohamOM

Glory of the known universe, a place of wonder & unlimited possibility, the planet and its people were held in reverence & to some even seen as Gods. Now, in the midst of war and magic unleashed, two forces would meet to determine the fate of all they hold dear. One who seeks to create a heavenly age from the destruction of an old one and another who seeks to stop his former friend, while bringing an end to the sorrows of the past. In the midst of this world war, the lives of allies and strangers are entwined in a bid for power and freedom. A brother & sister seeking to escape a fallen city, to a master of change who wishes to rule a broken kingdom and a woman of power with a mysterious friend both desiring a new beginning, yet caught up in a love of two former friends. Their lives and that of every other being will never be the same. It is The End Of An Age and from its resolution will rise a heavenly beginning or the end of all that's known. {written a long time ago)

Yamlok: The Realm Of The Dead by Nicental

⊰ The Wattys 2021 Shortlist ⊱ ⊰ Winner of the Wattpad India Awards 2020 Fantasy and Adventure ⊱ ; Two brave hearts emerged from the tragedy- one a saviour, the other a hero. ; 'I wish we're sent on another hunt,' she spoke, 'I simply can't wait to slay those sorry creatures.' Her face contorted with disgust. He chuckled and gently tugged her nose, 'All in good time, Anamika. The cosmos waits for everyone.' She was surprised, 'It does?' He nodded, 'Of course it does. How else would you explain the coexistence of so many souls?' 'I thought they just went on. The higher souls go to the Devlok and they forget about us.' He shook his head, 'No, they don't. Indeed, they stay there in the Devlok for some time but when they're done enjoying the fruit of their good deeds, they go back to the Prithvilok.' He paused, 'It's birth and death over and over again.' ; Join Anamika and Keval as they venture into the depths of war and death- from normal beings of the earth to the strongest of the two warring realms. Both felt worthless, both were broken, both were afraid. But worthlessness can be fought, brokenness can be mended, fears can be faced. They feared for themselves for the Heaven they were promised seemed lost, gone to waste. . . . #1 in Sunflower Awards 2.0 #2 in The Sapphire Awards
