SUMMARY: There are two sides to every city, although The Other is unknown to most. New York City is home to glistening lights, endless buildings, and constant traffic. However, if you know where to look, it's also a city of kings, sorcerers, and curses. Hilma, a young and recently orphaned woman, moves from Sweden to Manhattan in an attempt to start fresh. She quickly finds herself pulled in this Other world, which is currently on the brink of civil war. Hilma's life quickly spirals out of control against a backdrop of oppressive royalty, magical spells, and devastating warfare, all because of one man: one whose face is unknown to the world, whose voice has the power to bewitched, and who many believe is the Spirit of Death himself.
Spanning across three decades, "And the Crowd Goes Wild" tells the story of the unlikely connection between Hilma and her mysterious companion, Death, as they delve into a strange spirit world.

Whispered Legends
"In the depths of legend, where myth intertwines with history, the creatures of ancient tales have lived and evolved through the ages, each bearing a morality uniquely their own, shaped by the passage of time. Yet, beneath the shifting sands of centuries, the earliest accounts of these beings persist, and for good reason. Among these timeless legends, none stand as enigmatic and potent as the fairies. Their tales, once whispered in fear and awe, have taken on countless forms, their nature a puzzle both beautiful and dangerous. Now, in a world where such truths are relegated to myth, a young and insightful girl embarks on a journey that will unravel not only the existence of these beings but the hidden realities that lie beneath. With knowledge in her grasp and courage in her heart, she must uncover the fairies' true essence, and discover a way to face the ancient forces that have remained unseen for far too long. For the stories may have changed, but the creatures themselves remain, waiting. Written by RubyShards.![Shadows In Time [UNDER REVISION]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/334194377-256-k637348.jpg)
