The Mystery at Trida Academy | Fantasmical 2023 by StephanieProchaska

Second place in the Fantasmical Story Competition. Alaina, a semi-reclusive elf with questionable fire magic, joins a mysterious stranger. Together, they must travel through twelve fantastical realms, defeating dangerous monsters in order to save her sister. Alaina grew up in the small village of Koh-i-noor with her parents and two sisters. Her oldest sister was the village beauty, and even though her family wasn't wealthy or connected, rumors of her elegance and grace traveled the countryside. She married a prince and moved to the capital. Then there's her younger sister, gifted in both earth and water magic; she's one of the most talented magic users in over a century. And Alaina? She's nothing like either of her sisters. She's got fire magic, but she's more likely to burn the house down than to light the hearth. But that doesn't bother Alaina - she's perfectly fine, even with unreliable magic. She lives in the small cottage her parents left her, along with her loyal, if somewhat yippy fox, Cinna, tending her garden and selling the sweetest strawberries that Koh-i-noor has ever seen. But when her sister sends a cryptic word that something's wrong at the Trida Academy, Alaina must abandon her solitary life to save her sister. Cover image by AndreasAux from Pixabay

As the echoes of an ordinary school rally faded, the unexpected descent into chaos began. Zolàna, Triss, Nicole, Quanfei, and Yue found themselves ensnared by the enigmatic grasp of the Order of the Forgotten Triparte. What was meant to be a routine check-up of an eerie, otherworldly realm took a harrowing turn into a nightmarish labyrinth of twisting corridors and shifting walls. But their powers were not what mattered now; it was their unraveling sanity in this non-Euclidean nightmare. As the boundaries of reality warped and fractured around them, they clung to the last shreds of reason. Desperation clawed at their minds, for they were caught in a sinister game with rules they couldn't comprehend. The air grew heavy with dread, and an inescapable darkness loomed ahead, promising answers or oblivion. Their lives hung in the balance, teetering on the precipice of an unspeakable abyss, and the truth they sought was nothing they could have ever imagined.

Polarized by Wildsmellyflower

Just another generic story about some high schooler with powers being the chosen one and saving the world. Okay, maybe not the entire world. But our protagonist here may end up saving her country plus the spirit realm from a power-hungry goddess... or she may not. So we have a country, Cloudgate, which I accidentally named after a giant bean in Chicago. (Look it up, guys) Then we have auras, which are these magical power source thingies from the heavens, or should I say the Realm of Spirits, which give the people of Cloudgate supernatural abilities. Except the auras are actually cursed, which messes with the human's powers, and now auras have become synonymous with curses and aura-having humans face heavy persecution. Skye Everson, the afformented chosen one protagonist, is one of these aura-havers, and she has ice powers. For a long time, she had idolized mages and wanted to hone her skills so she could become a mage herself. The problem? Aura magic is no longer legal. Fortunately for Skye, she gets kidnapped by a secret society that trains mages illegally, and may now have a chance to live out her dreams as an ice mage. But becoming a practiced magic user in this day and age may not be all its cracked up to be... (Age rating: 13+)

FORMER TITLE: Élan: A Youngblood World "Beware that you become not the very monster you ought to slay." In a world where magic holds the essence to life, there is still no telling where fate determines your place will be. When the Cardinal Empire of Nyrhaea and its time-forsaken creatures declare war on the human world, an immortal dark entity in the guise of a human, a grieving swordsman, an electric-manipulating technocrat, an unhinged fire-breathing boy, and a magic-less girl whose very existence defies the Laws of Mahika, venture to stop the prophecied, apocalyptic world war. All the while dealing with the complications of entering adulthood. With the grotesque inside him growing hungrier by the day, threatening him of the looming hour to fulfill destiny's bidding to be the key to the end of the world--where death is an impossible remedy to attain--the entity resorts to a mysterious girl who could only be his last hope to achieve freedom from the shackles of fate. An antidote given not without an undefined price. But how long can he endure to bury the roots of the calling past?

Amere is a seventeen-year-old human living in the crime-infested, lawless village of Brookshire in the kingdom of Braisen.

Before Amere was born, his father was taken away by the city of Andross guards under charges of sending a dragon to kill King Arturion as well as being a searcor outside of the Tower of Searcors. With King Arturion dead, his brother, Theron, took the throne. Unlike his brother, Theron imposed horrific laws in place for searcors, the Order of Drakkun, as well as the three remaining elf tribes living in the outskirts of Braisen. On one fateful day, Amere meets a mysterious searcor traveling through his village that knew him as well as his father. The searcor further tells Amere that he has come to recruit him in a quest to unite an army of the races to take down King Theron.

An's Diary (Skyrim Fanfic) by Adventur3Hat

Marcurio, a mercenary magician, is hired by the mysterious Dovahkiin for the second time. But this time, he's been recruited to accompany her in her attempt to uncover her past and find out why her first memory is of her waking up outside Skyrim's borders in the middle of a Stormcloak/Imperial skirmish. This is a story injected into my personal Skyrim character and experience. It's a creative spin on the existing characters and situations, giving it more life and reality than the mindless video game characters in the game. "This is, without a doubt, the best book I've read on Wattpad. I cried at times, laughed at some, but overall, I absolutely loved this book. Marcurio is <3 " -BaleighCam "This was the best story I have read in a LONG time." -Minnesota_Writer "I love how original this story is. It's perfect." -Vidjauser "i love this so much. you're amazing...." -The_Nightshade_Thief " *explosion of feels* " -Wolfheart_thefangirl Best rating: #2 in elderscrollsv Disclaimer: If you're not familiar with the game Skyrim, this may be confusing. Everything except my Dovahkiin and the story belongs to Bethesda.
