For centuries, five great noble houses have slaughtered each other in bloody wars of hatred and spite.  From the brave knights of the Virtus to the powerful mages of the Eruditio each family has grown strong through constant competition and conflict.  But now their leaders seek to end that cycle of violence with a grand, unstable experiment of peace within the grand city of Aterdivitia.

As the noble families strain against the peace that is forced on them, new threats arise unlike anything these mighty civilizations have ever faced.  As madness and terror pour into the streets of the city, five young warriors are the only ones willing to put aside their family's hatred and cooperate.  Amid bloodshed and chaos, hatred and suspicion, the heirs must fight for that which their people most despise: Peace.

Briarborne by EllisBeddoe
3 parts Ongoing Mature
In the far western regions of Tayrul, beyond the coasts of Kemmaweth and Ostaviel, is the fractured Empire of Nyllensari, the realm of the fae and their many courts. One kingdom in particular that has resisted the rule of the Mynetheas Dynasty for millennia is that of Illyethluna, the realm of Dark Elves. Kept fully under Unseelie rule and ruled over by the royal Jhalvar family, it has become a place of strife and intrigue. Poisoned wine and daggers like thorns. An orderly anarchy, full of backstabbing courtiers and ruthless warlords. It's a place where the weak and enfeebled have no right to be, should they value their lives. Born to the greatest power in this realm, Vellienne's very existence damages her family's ruthless and cruel image. Tarnished their reputation. Born early and frail, white as a sheet and agonized by sunlight, Vellienne is kept by her mother Zeldiira, away from a world she wishes to hold in the palm of her hand, no matter how delicate. Plagued by her envy in her brothers' successes and her parents' dismay, as well as loathing for how her own body prevents her from achieving such heights, Vellienne begins to plot and conspire to become greater than was thought possible for her. Greater than her own kin. She would become someone else entirely, if that is what it took.
