To uphold his Lords name and redeem his honor, and even so, save his own life - Elreal must plunge into the adventure of the waters, seeking answers and revenge.
Fate would yet do more; she would craft him unto desperation, and bind him Captain of the Ghost' crew.
Fate' betrayal would not seize, till she'd turn the Ghost one of the most renowned pirate vessels floating the Great sea.
An inexperienced Captain; now head to a vessel of a bunch of mere sailors with no pure ethics on piracy. Elreals trials is thus defined.
Through the waters, he now battles with new friends against old foes and new threats.

A Journey Through Time
What if you woke up one morning... and everything around you belonged to another century? One moment, I was moving through my mundane routine. The next, a mysterious silver box - and a cryptic warning - hurled me through time. All I ever wanted was a simple life: quiet, steady, normal. Instead, I've landed in a world where I hold no power, know no one, and understand nothing about the rules shaping every breath I take. To survive, I have to learn the laws of a world determined to silence me - and find a way home before it's too late, especially with a war on the horizon. But how do you change the course of history when you barely understand how it began? And just when I think things can't get any more complicated, a pair of ocean-blue eyes threatens to rewrite everything I thought I wanted. Can I return to the life I lost? Or will the past - and the man I was never meant to meet - change my future forever? Author's Note: For readers who crave time-travel romance, historical drama, and slow-burn love that keeps you up way past midnight - welcome. You're in the right place.Complete

The Beach Treaty (Eridan Ampora X Human!Reader)|DISCONTINUED!! SORRY!!
[Being re-written on a different story! this one will still be up!! the new one will be called Hopeful Friends] Living in a world where Humans and Trolls exist together is actually quite peaceful, unless you mess with the wrong person. This is the story of you, (Y/N) (L/N) and your fight against Eridan Ampora--Er, Fight sounds too rough.. Maybe, Banter? (Gender is nothin') ((Adds the intro in to the discription like a noob, lmao)) I never would have thought I'd make it this far in life, espescially with the life that I've led on. My name is (Y/N) (L/N) and I'm your 'average' eighteen year old who's trying to make an impact on the world with one brush stroke at a time. You wouldn't think that a world populated by trolls and humans would be too kind but it was, most people minded their own business, unless you messed with the wrong 'high blooded' troll. I've learned this by messing with the wrong Ampora, and sense that day my life has been an utter living hell.

Masked ✔
* * * "...Why are you following me?" I only muttered in case no one was really there. I didn't want any surrounding people to think I was crazy and just imagining someone behind me.

He was wearing a mask. * * * Saved from a rapist by a pirate. At first, Vivienne sees pirates as scums. She believes all of them are full of greed. Well, Vivienne isn't completely wrong. But when she accidentally boards a pirate ship belonging to the Masquerade Messes, her entire life takes a turn. Perhaps for the better, perhaps for the worse... either way, Vivienne occupies her time by trying to identify her rescuer. He's a part of the crew, but the only time he appears is during the masquerade parties. She tries to figure out who he is, but she struggles badly.
