This is a tale of two countries finding peace; a tale of an emperor blinded by desperation, of how a team was put together to save these two countries from their doom.
The Queendom of Oshara seeks peace with its Athalian neighbor, but the tyrannic Emperor Sewale refuses to let Oshara flourish while his turns to sand. It will take more than usurping the emperor of a nation to return these countries to peace.

the white fox
IN THE MIDDLE OF A WAR, THE LAST THING THEY NEED IS SOMEONE SPREADING THE ENEMY AGENDA. When Lady Kuroki's esteemed students are dispatched to a house party in a faraway manor to root out a potential Meliquean spy, Lady Asteria Lu isn't sure what to expect. The guests are powerful and eccentric, but none of them seem traitorous. Besides, her friends are distracted: Danna by a fate she could no longer run from, Io by the only boy who'd ever seen through her cover. So a mess, really. Then comes a soldier who clearly knew more than he was pretending to, constantly getting in her way. Coincidence, or is he the very agent she's searching for? Maximilian Harlande's life was a good deal simpler before he became a spy. Certainly, back then, he wouldn't be caught dead running around a house party with a Novokulugan agent attached to his hip. But he has a mission to complete, and the cunning Lady Asteria Lu refuses to let him do his job in peace. Fine. So be it. May the best spy win. (Book One of the Lady Kuroki's School for Girls trilogy Can be read as a standalone) Formerly a Wattpad Original novelComplete

The Prophecy of Water | TheWattys2018 Shortlister ✔️
[Wattys2018 Shortlist] [Bootcamp Mentorship Mentee 2020] [Insidious Awards - 1st place/Action/Adventure] "Squinty, I... Help me! Please! You have to help me!" Squinty huffed at him as the horse might snort at an annoying fly it couldn't get rid of. "A...a... an apple," he stammered. "I just... stole an apple!" ---- When water is controlled by those in power, even a mere apple can be a catalyst. For Squinty, it was the start of everything. Finding Grizzly. Losing Roko. Becoming a Vigil. Discovering she had the power to become invisible. For Nalina, the threat of a new Water War was even closer to home; her beloved brother was the one initiating it. To Drian, water formed the core of his belief system, defined who was - and was not - worthy, and justified the treatment of the underground-dwelling Wellers. An orphan girl, determined to do what was right. A princess, petitioning for peace. An abbot, torn between his religion, and his experience. Each with an Etching, a unique power that surely makes them special; a tie to something more, something extra, something beyond the Squareworld. Credits for the cover go to an absolutely amazing cover artist and fellow writer Narcisse Navarre @InkSorcery. The Prophecy of Water is ONLY available on Wattpad.
