Can British magick be saved? Hell yes.
Imagine modern Britain without magick.
No fae enclaves. No flying chairs. No magick wands. Giddy gods, no unicorns.
Who wants to live in that world?
Me neither. But with magick on the decline, that's the world we're ending up with.
Meet the Society for Magickal Heritage. Our boss is a disembodied voice. Our headquarters is a sentient house. You could say we've a vested interest in keeping magick alive.
Can a ragtag bunch of magicians, necromancers and fae prevail against inevitable ruin and decline?
Hell yes. Try and stop us.
First mission? Find the source of a magickal disease that's decimating Britain's troll enclaves - and fix it. Simple.
Or... maybe not. For the only place that might hold the information we need is the ancient and inconveniently lost enclave of Farringale...

Another Chance: Summoning the British Isles
Torn from there former reality, the entirety of the British isles finds itself spotlighted on a world where different points in time have been intertwined with fantastical elements, from regular seeming humans being capable to hold a mystical power between there palms, to kingdoms that hold similar comparisons to there own nations historical achievements, this world holds no punches when it comes to nostalgia being corrupted by the magics of this world. Eventually, the people of the British isles must come to terms of there situation, they are no longer on Earth and must find new ways in adapting to there new situation amidst the overgrowing challenges such as the lack of the overall consumer goods and energy imports that they used to take for granted back on Earth. Yet the British isles shall prevail, and with it a new order may rise that can easily destroy whatever status quo that had been or whatever may stand in the way of the two new emerging nations. The United Kingdom and Ireland, once both of these nations had a strained relationship at best, but now in this new world, the two shall sooner or later patch up old wounds and put a stop to whatever tries to reopen or create anymore wounds for there respective countrymen. Eventually this New World shall bow down to the British isles as a powerful and benevolent leader in global affairs, giving the British isles one last chance to gain glory and praise on a global level. (Along with that, this world apparently has no creativity when it comes to naming itself, as "New World", just seems odd, maybe a word similar to Earth was to much for the people of these lands, even if they are capable of creating magical nukes). NOTICE: THIS WORK IS A FANFICTION OF THE ORIGINAL "SUMMONING JAPAN", WHICH INSTEAD FOLLOWS THE BRITISH ISLES AS THE MAIN PROTAGANIST NATION. ALL CREDITS GO TO THE OG CREATOR OF SUMMONING JAPAN IN WHICH I GIVE THEM LOTS OF LOVE AND PRAISE. PS: I HOPE THEY FINISH THE GRA VALKAN ARC SOON.

Niles knows a lot about faeries. As a doctor who specializes in treating fae, he's become a leading expert in his field. But when a new patient crosses his path, a hybrid faerie named Ashton, even he begins to doubt his ability to help this patient. Ashton doesn't know where he is or how long he's been away from home. All he knows is that he shouldn't trust this new human doctor who is trying to help him adjust to life without his wings. Convinced that there is no way to get back home without endangering his entire clan, Ashton has resigned himself to his current predicament and given up on a hopeful future. As Niles tries to connect with this reserved and cautious faerie, and Ashton tries to rebuild his life from scratch, they both learn what it means to trust and move forward. AUTHOR'S NOTE Me, putting on a fake mustache and pretending to be a used car salesman: *slaps cover of story* This right here is our newest model!

The Last Knights of Cambria Book 1: Echoes of Gideon
Gideon Saint is dying for something exciting to happen in his life. With his love of history, he figures an internship at the museum has to be a good start, right? Anything is better than listening to his parents argue or sitting alone in his room doing research no one but him seems to care about. A chance encounter with a magical ring leaves him transported to an alternate version of ancient Wales, or as it was sometimes called, Cambria. 1432 Wales, to be exact. Here magic is the most powerful weapon of all as kings vie for power. Good thing Gideon's teleportation from the present has also left him with the ability to use magic, and he's quickly regarded as a powerful wizard. In this timeline, Wales maintained it's independence, but that's about to change. Henry V is on the throne of the England, and the greatest warrior king England has ever had has set his sights on Wales. Can Gideon help save his newfound friends and master his new powers, while living a double life in the 21st century? Ahem, living people die, dying people live, Henry V is here and he's awesome despite being the main antagonist, everybody is vaguely gay, swords are described in loving detail, people are not, lovely platonic friendships, did we mention swords? Yes, you may learn something about history, but that's a risk you'll have to take. Basically, think of this as a Percy Jackson type of adventure, but it's historical fiction instead of Greek gods. The narrator is 15 and the major supporting characters are 14, 17, and 19. That said, there's nothing in the way of content that's inappropriate for a younger reader. As always if you're not here to go on a fun little adventure find a different story. Trigger/Content: very mild language, some magic violence, fantasy violence. Self-harm is briefly discussed. Adoption issues are discussed as well as brief scenes of a abusive family. Characters briefly mention crushes and or dating, no real innuendos.Complete

A Drink Before Battle [MxM] ✅
General Sevei is of the firm opinion that Nobles are shady and Alchemists even shadier. Noble Alchemists are the absolute worst. He is not looking forward to partnering with one to guard the border. Upon their introduction, though, it would seem they have already met... under very intimate circumstances. Oh...,**** Set in the same world as Salvage, but we're going back in time for some Medieval sword and sorcery! This wholesome, happy-endings-all-around, smutty queer fantasy romance features an M/M main couple along with a host of supporting characters bringing some trans rep, some pan rep, some sex worker positivity, and even a straight ally who tries his darndest, bless his little puppy heart. Plenty of fluff, plenty of sexy times, a few funny bits, and our gang do all make it through the Horrors - but there is a war on, so there's also plenty of angst and a bit of bloody violence along the way. CW: Violence, violent death (no main characters), homophobic society, internalized homophobia and closeting, internalized transphobia (supporting character), war veteran ptsd, slavery (supporting character - no abuse of this character is depicted and sentiments are anti-slavery), strong language, detailed sexual content (all consensual), discussion of sex work.Complete

Long-lost realms that were sealed up are opening, and centuries-old creatures are escaping, all hungry to feed on humans and create worldwide chaos.

Jessamine has her role to play, too. If you thought she was resting on her laurels, living a passive life in the demon realm--think again. She's about to encounter blasts from the past and learn more about this world than she ever thought she would. With both of them confined within their respective realms, they'll have to team up with foes and former lovers to protect Earth from the monsters seeking to invade and destroy it. But is there really a happy ending waiting for them if they succeed? Or will there always be the threat of other realms looming over their heads?Complete
