Book One of The Ruins Series
***
Decades after the enforcement of the New Religion and the banishment of magic, The King knew the only way to truly rid the world of the "monstrous" magic wielders was to take the Kingdom of Thane, home of the mighty and diverse led by a seemingly all powerful family with abilities beyond belief.
When The King and his army came for Thane, The Royal Family laid down their lives in a useless attempt to protect their kingdom. The few that survived the slaughter were sent to work in deadly mines anywhere The King had already conquered and talk of The Fallen Kingdom was forbidden.
Once the storm had settled and the people were forced to accept the loss of their last hope, it was revealed to the public that although The Fallen Family had five members, The King only had four of their heads.

'If you want a good girl, then goodbye,' I say, a sweet smile on my face. His face contorts to anger and he smacks me across the face.

Then two years passed, the fourth was born, followed with the fifth the next year. Lord Kadesh divided the kingdom, sharing it to each of his five sons. The plots were divided according to the first born, to the last. The eldest got the largest portion and created a stated which he named after himself, just like his father did with the kingdom. The twins were given equal sized portions, naming their new states after them. And so did the fourth and fifth. Meanwhile, the King's concubines also bore children.

Until even that was taken from me too. But I am fucking Thana Lillith Kage, the last true Necromancer left standing. And I will be damned if I let my enemies take my second family from me. Never. Again. {Warning. This book is still in the editing stages and I work a full time job out in the real world (fml) so the chapters are either a plethora of words or short and sweet. Like I said before, this is a slow burn RH. The beloved Quad will be more present in the next book while I focused solely on Thana in this one.

Daffodils and Hyacinths (3rd book in the Forgotten Truths series)
"One small incident can ruin or change a person's life - Now imagine a storm," Dusty winds spit at Sun'Tribe and her people. Cramped, multiple families are forced to huddle in one of the ruins; the only remaining proof of the original four tribes that used to stand. "Unifying us all is what should make us less insecure about ourselves, but our differences are what makes each one of us unique; special," In Sun'Tribe, everyone is the same. No traditions, no religion, no abilities, no culture, not even the way someone dresses themselves can be different. Dull, brown clothes, with hair cut down and pulled back in a simple manner. Difference is only for their Leader. The supreme ruler who never goes hungry, and lives in a large palace just for herself. It isn't until two lowly commoners take in the last of the outcasts, that their world sees a future of life again. ~*~ Written by the beas-TEAS, (old acc: Echo__IsNoFurry) @ROSE___555 and @Contrastgaze (@Echo_IsNoFurry is a broken acc) You don't have to read the other previous two books of this series to understand this book. "Forgotten Truths" is more of a backstory-based book, for the old tribes and some of the characters, which takes place a little over a decade before "Daffodils and Hyacinths", and the main details to understand this book are in "The Place where Dreams Fade," but if you're new, you should be caught up after reading 'TRIBES AND RULERS' and the Prologue. Updates might be a little irregular depending on our schedule We all hope you choose to give "Daffodils and Hyacinths" a go! (Might be a little gore; warnings on chapters that include it. Suitable for ages 8+)Complete
