Resting in a guarded fort, cloaked in centuries of black rumours and a bloody reputation, the Book waxes useless. Until the day a fledgling dictator steals it and begins using it to take over the world. The King of Ohadi sends his most trusted soldier, Captain Merric Greldor, to retrieve the book and end the threat once and for all. Merric journeys with an unlikely ally: a murderous thief named Kallista with a forgotten power. Together they must battle across a broken empire, fight fearsome beasts, help rally the oppressed and ultimately face off in a battle of the ages.

All while dealing with the spark of attraction that fuels the fire between them.

Scar of Breath by RiaHuck
18 parts Ongoing Mature
"May you find The Everlasting." **** In the Eastern Continent, where monsters once roamed the forests and alchemists defended the people, the Scars were born. Seven individuals with unique powers drove the monsters away and paved the way for civilisation. Centuries later, Caelum was the central power of the Eastern Continent, until the day it fell, and a power vacuum opened. An era of uncertainty arrived, and the remaining Kingdoms were left to pick up the pieces. Zephyr, the Scar of Breath, is on a path of vengeance. She enters the fighting pits of Ithlon to gain access to the King of Blissdor, his kingdom, and the treasures it holds. However, the Prince of Blissdor becomes an obstacle she never saw coming. As their friendship blossoms, she must hide her true motives, motives that could change the fate of the Continent. Kallista is the Scar of Mist, yet born in the Zakhian Kingdom, she was captured the day she revealed her powers, the day her lover was stolen from her. Now imprisoned, waiting for her execution, she knows she must escape. Not just for her own life, but the life of her unborn child. Rhiannon, the Scar of Earth, and princess of Navumia, has spent eighteen summers unable to bring forth her powers and she is haunted by the magik she does not possess. Now, as she comes of age, suitors line up at her door, and she must choose a husband. When one of her suitors turns up dead, she makes it her mission to find the killer and prove herself a worthy princess. Whilst these Scars fight for what they believe in, the Kingdom of Caelum is rising once again. Strange monsters roam its forests, and a darkness consumes the Caelum throne. And it wants more.

This is an old book I have written since late 2018/early 2019. Me and my friend have worked on it for a long time. I kept it, because it was finished, but then discontinued it for a while. After that, I started writing the book again. This is the story of a cat named Katie, who was told the world was the same, urban or rural places, with no magic at all. But, what do you know; there's magic everywhere in this world! But with great magic comes great enemies. Not all places are the same, from split-in-half islands to kingdoms in the clouds, to windy crafting centers, to a cave in Antartica and much more. There's lots to explore, lots to fight, and lots to do.
