A young traveler is taken under the wing of the greatest smith in the entire world, who rumors had told could create life itself. 




     Locke, a young lone traveler, never had any place to call home. No matter where he went, and no matter how kindly he would act, the world didn't seem to have any place for him. His biggest burden, was the noticeable scar he had to follow him. For many years, he had walked without a left arm. 

     His travels take him to a seemingly small village of Jaren - an old settlement from after the frequent wars with the Northmen. Upon his arrival, he felt compelled to seek employment with the Lifesmith, who was apparently searching for a new assistant. 

     With nothing left to lose nor expect, Locke is shocked when he is offered the position. He becomes further shocked when the smith, Amery Warmheart the Third, crafts an entirely new arm to replace the one he had lost ages ago. Such an offer quickly seemed far too much for him to be able to repay. 

     While discovering how Locke can truly repay his debt and fulfill his role as the Lifesmith's apprentice, as well as discovering just what a Lifesmith is truly capable of, Alvina, princess of the endangered race of Elves, escapes captivity. Her previous captor, Adrian, has her mother, the queen, captive in hopes of marrying her, claiming it to be for the good of her entire endangered species. With their backs against the wall for so many decades, it's a great risk for the sake of her people.

     All that and more, in this newly crafted story on Wattpad! Note that names and certain elements are certainly subject to change as the series progresses.

Elemental Rush by elanajohnson
14 parts Complete
Eighteen-year-old Adam Gillman has trained for twelve years to earn a coveted spot on the Supreme Elemental's elite sentry squad. His brother, Felix, is the commander, but Adam is still thrilled when his official assignment to serve Alexander Pederson comes. He moves into nicer quarters and can stop getting up at four a.m. to complete his mandated work out time. He still rises early though, because he needs the solitude of early morning to practice his airmaking Element-something that Adam has kept secret from everyone, even Felix, because he can't be both an Airmaker and a sentry. When Alex assigns him to kill a group of rogue Elementals, he balks at completing his mission for the first time. See, his only friend is Isaiah Hawking, and he's the Earthmover on the accused Council. When faced with the prospect of killing him, Adam finds he can't do it. He's well trained in assassination, but he thought he'd be murdering bad guys-not innocents. When Alex buries the Elemental Academy-and kills over one thousand Elementals-in a fit of rage, Adam's loyalty cracks. When he discovers that Alex is really a woman, and his brother's lover, he defects. He hops from city to city, from Elemental school to Elemental school, always escaping only minutes before Felix can embed a knife in his heart or a tsunami can make a classroom his watery grave. He tries to fight back, but he's just one Airmaster with exceptional tracking skills. He does his best to warn those in danger, but as the last Elemental school goes up in flames, he knows he needs to get some real firepower on his side.

IRON HAND (BOOK ONE): FOR THE GREATER GOOD by LowHale
34 parts Complete Mature
"Iron Hand" begins in the throes of what most stories would consider the final battle. Buren, leading the "Seekers of the Artifact," utilizes the power of the Gauntlet, an ancient artifact for which he sacrificed his own arm and triumphs over the dark lord, ending the undead scourge plaguing the lands. Without a foe to unify them, the alliance of various racial, religious, and political factions begins to unravel. Reluctant negotiations result in an uneasy peace that leaves many dissatisfied, especially Buren. Now feared and distrusted for the power of the Gauntlet, Buren finds no respite. Dark visions he believes to be warnings from the Gauntlet haunt his dreams. However, his fears are dismissed as the delusions of a war-weary mind. Determined to confront this new threat, Buren follows his visions to an ancient mountain, located within the sacred grounds of the Dryads. The distrustful Dryads deny him access. Out of options, Buren infiltrates the Faith, a fanatical human supremacist religious order, becoming their enforcer, their "Iron Hand." As Buren travels, we delve into the backstories of the "Seekers of the Artifact," witnessing his navigation through a treacherous web of intrigue where trust is a luxury he cannot afford. The realm suffers under a despotic king, with whom Buren must ally on the surface, while secretly plotting his downfall. The situation is further complicated by his arranged marriage to a woman harboring her own dark secrets. Literary heroes sacrifice everything for others, but what happens when saving the world requires sacrifices from everyone? When do the ends cease to justify the means?. What if saving the world involves sacrificing innocents, betraying loved ones, and allying with despised enemies? "Iron Hand" is a story of a man who gave everything to save the world once and is now prepared to do so again, even if it means crossing lines he never thought he would. But will he still be hailed as a hero?
