A woman runs from everything.
A songbird joins her from nowhere, singing colors and images.
A whisperer finds the pair among a field of poplars and graves.
A dark and vicious viper stalks them from deep in the earth.
They must flee from the Viper, at any cost. They must reach their safe haven--Aeolia.
On the way there, the woman and bird pass strange and foreign places--including the Bridge to Infinity, where they are blessed by the Mist; Canvas Valley, where they walk along Aeolian train tracks; Seasons' Spiral, where the seasons fight on an open savanna; Dreams' Lattice, home to a grand tamperer; and many more.
Along the way, new creatures help the woman and bird. But every time the Viper comes close, they choose to run--until at last they can't any longer.
They must fight or die.

Wings of Power: The Rising Tribe [SERIES CLOSED]
Vein has been taught his whole life on how to "kill first, ask later" at his school. His fighting camp was dark, dreary and blood-looking, and it was no surprise that Vein wanted to escape. Sure, he liked his family---but when a nasty incident over his older sister's death occurred, he has to flee the only camp he knows. Soon he takes refugee with TimeWings. But after another accidental disaster, Vein doesn't think the TimeWings trust him. One TimeWing hates him so much, that she wishes to use her magic on him. At least, that's what Vein thinks. Imprisonment by TimeWings is embarrassing enough, but becoming friends with one was more than crazy. But as the TimeWing that hates him grows meaner and meaner, Vein knows she has to be stopped . . . before the Island of Grinnen is destroyed under her talons.

The Legacy
COMPLETED / UNDERGOING MAJOR EDITING (THIS IS THE ROUGH DRAFT) "The Legacy" All Rights Reserved Copyright © 2015, Juliette Frost ~*~ The ragged crowing of a bird reached my ears, pulling me from my inner turmoil. Looking up, I found a beautiful raven perched on a stop sign a few steps ahead of me, croaking like he was flustered by something. I frowned, my eyebrows drawing together as I took a step closer toward it as if that would help me to understand what had it so spooked. Deciding to just sleep the night off, I was about to turn in the direction I was headed when once again I saw something move. The alley. I know I saw- whatever the hell I saw- coming from in there. "What the-" A large hand clasped my shoulder from the back, a shrill scream escaping my lips at the contact. ~*~ Cover By: Luna Black @_salacious [07/01/2015-01/03/2019]Complete
The Winged
Surviving can be difficult when you're only a few inches tall. Fanged beasts see you as their prey, every creature is bigger than you, and the world seems to work against small things. Not to mention the struggles of getting from place to place... but the worst of it all? Humans. Once a year, every year, summer sweeps over the forest. The sun warms the leaves and the damp melts away until the world of the Winged flourishes. Those warm months are when survival becomes the hardest. Drawn by the beauty of the forest, humans of all kind invade the already dangerous home of the small Winged people. Fear of these monsters is shared throughout the tribes. One sacred piece of advice is known: avoid humans at all costs. They know only how to destroy and hurt. ___ Despite the protests of her close friend, Azure accepts a mission that takes her from the safety of her tribe. Things begin well despite her trepidation of the approaching summer months. That is, until she falls right into the hands of the very creatures she feared. ___ Completed! Beware of some crappy writing and stupid typos :0 Second part is on my account :) :)Complete
