In an age where men rule absolute and women are relegated to the shadows, a sorceress arises to upset the balance of power and lay waste to the Five Thrones of Yoh. She is pitted against a great knight who has been blessed with an enchanted mask from the Raven goddess. The knight is victorious but he has broken the law. How will the people of the Five Thrones react when they discover the greatest hero they have ever known is a woman? Will they kill her for impersonating a man as the law demands? Will they bury her identity and her legacy in the dark halls of their history? Or will they celebrate her achievements and give her a place of honour among the people?

Y/N was born into one of the five most influential families in the whole country, but as the years passed the cruelty of her father only grew. Eventually, Y/N was forced to become a maid in her own home, and serve her new stepmother, and stepsisters. Y/N had given up hope for ever escaping her wicked family, until one day, a kind and handsome stranger rescued her and brought her to the Castle Vascini. Once there she discovered that her rescuer was actually the Royal Tutor, who had been ordered to find the prince a bride in the next three months. Indebted to the man for saving her from her terrible situation, Y/N had no choice but to agree to the tutor's crazy plan to turn her into the perfect bride for the prince. But what if this plan ended up working a bit too well? Despair and hopelessness lay behind her, while trickery, danger, and obsession wait in masquerade for Y/N.

The Lost Life of Laraine by BearGoRawr
55 parts Ongoing
She lead a rather tragic life. The black sheep of her family due to her lack of affinity for fire. Her affinity was quite the opposite. Water in fact. Already in a time when women did not really have much political power or rights, she was outcasted by her family despite being of nobility. Still allowed to live in the distant west wing of the massive Grand Duke's manor, she has never eaten a single meal with her family nor extended family, and has spent her loneliness in her books and sword lessons. Although only taught by the head butler and one of the low ranked knights of the family, she was quite bright and if her family would have given her a chance she would have done great things. If only she didn't die at such a young age. Married off to some "hero" of sort that had slayed the Dragon of the North who was terrorizing the land and threatened the kingdom, this hero also had an affinity for fire and held her in disdain like the rest of her family. Suddenly a girl of another world was transported to their world, picked up by this hero and put into his secure care. The pair soon fell for each other despite the hero's marriage, and many believed Laraine got jealous of this girl of mystery, and tried to kill her. This was definitely not true. But because the girl was favored by the temple and kingdom Laraine was quickly arrested and put on trial. You can probably tell what happened to Laraine. But something strange happened the day of her execution. As soon as her decapitated head hit the ground the sky turned blood red and it began to rain fire. No one survived that day. But for some reason time went back, and Laraine was back to being a child, but with no memory of her future. There were select few in her life, however, that remembered her tragedy and now perhaps will take action to prevent it. NOTE: I'M AWARE THERE ARE A LOT OF INCONSISTENCIES. IT WILL BE EDITED SOME DAY BUT RIGHT NOW I'M JUST TRYING TO FINISH IT.

Corrin and Sachse are best friends, but they're not supposed to be. Meanwhile, Ostara lives over the border and pushes through her daily life with a mask permanently etched on her face, hiding her insecurities. When she accidentally ends up on the wrong side while gathering plants, Corrin pulls her into his friend's alley to hide, but only hours later, the Wizards have launched a war against the Witches for foul play, and all men in their twenties to sixties must be conscripted to war. Ostara, sick of dealing with the pressures that come with being a woman, makes an impossible choice and changes her fate. As the war begins, Planet, Sol, and Moon find a new residence and caretaker for the years ahead, and they study the languages and customs of society, not knowing what could lie in store for them all. As Skylar narrates this tale, you'll read plots of forbidden friendship and love, struggles with identity, and gruesome battles.
