"Hope, children, and never once let in. For it is written that a single candle can withstand the darkness, even now, in our most desperate hour."

"Though the end days have come at last, and the sun falls for the last time beyond the dim horizon, we must still have hope, being that the unlikeliest of heroes and the greatest and most difficult of adventures can emerge from the darkest of days."

~*~ 

The gods are silent, and the people's desperate prayers of healing and aid go mysteriously unanswered. Rumors and talk of monstrous, horrific dragons killing anything in sight are whispered in taverns and pubs, with the added murmurs of draconic creatures that stand on two feet like a man followed close behind. 

When the elven capital of Lyrenbel is destroyed and half its population slaughtered, a chain of events suddenly brings together a disgraced knight, an old dwarf, a mage that hides his insecurities behind a mask of arrogance, a traumatized Sylvari and an orphaned Sylvanaar, and sets them forth on a path that none of them ever wanted to be on.

They are expected to be saviors, heroes that come from a child's bedtime story.

But they are not fighting against a normal dragon, or other mythical creature. 

They are fighting against an all powerful god.

They carry the weight of the world on their shoulders as they begin walking down their long and winding road, yet they will fight until the very end, despite the tension that grows between them with each passing day. Their chances of success are slim, and if they do succeed, they will not return as the same person. 

If they return at all.

Disaster-in-Waiting NOW AVAILABLE TO BUY ON AMAZON by ElleMThomas
3 parts Complete Mature
WARNING R-RATED Disaster-in-Waiting was a dream come true for me. Firstly writing it and then sharing it on here and receiving such a wonderful response to it. It was because of the support and encouragement on here that I finally took the decision to self-publish as an e-book. It is available on Amazon and can be read for free on there with Kindle Unlimited. ****Mature audience only due to adult themes; sex, language and situations**** Eloise Ross is married to Michael, her much older and recently retired husband. He fills his days with golf and walking the dog, while she fills her days working as a newly appointed P.A. to the CEO of an international company. One night, disillusioned with her sexless marriage she goes out alone, drinks beer and dances with a handsome stranger. The moves on the dance floor quickly lead to passion and excitement like El has never known, but it was only one night, one time. Just that once couldn't mean anything, could it? Just that once changed her view on everything she'd ever thought she'd known or valued; her home, family, husband and marriage, but most of all herself. As her life begins to unravel, with twists and turns that make her laugh, cry and despair El has only one constant to hang onto, her handsome stranger. "Because I don't want to end it. I'm not exactly what you'd call experienced," I said with a warm flush creeping up my cheeks. "I thought everything I had, with Michael was an ideal life until that night, when I met you and something switched inside me, a realisation that it was as far from ideal as anything ever could be. I don't think I'm being clear here, sorry. I am not trying to pin my happiness or the consequences of this on you, God, I don't even call you by your first name so to expect anything of you is not realistic!"

An extremely strong young female who has the ability to defeat anyone, but she's being hunted and is in danger of being murdered. Will Hope turn her back on her newfound mission and attempt to live a normal life, while it lasts? When she finds love, will she turn away from it and refuse to return it?

The Greylands: Modern Edition by SusanSkylark
1 part Complete
A land of shadows, of mystery, of obfuscated Truth. Welcome to the Greylands, that strange world, within the bounds of Time, peopled by mortal men. We cannot see truly, only as through a glass, darkly. There are things that move and have their being completely beyond our ability to perceive them. There are things beyond our mortal ability to comprehend. There are hints and glimmers hidden within the body of revealed Truth, but there is much we do not know, cannot yet understand, and could never dare dream. These stories are mere fancy, with a seed of Truth at their core. They play with the ideas of mortality and Eternity, Time and things beyond it, and of course the epic battle of Good against Evil. Each stands alone, and though there are common themes, threads, names, and concepts, each story is an entity unto itself and should not be seen as occurring in the same world or mistaken for installments of a series. These are random musings, not Gospel Truth, and should not be taken as such. Joy, hope, and encouragement are hopefully a byproduct, but certainly not sound Theology. If you would know more of the true world beyond these Greylands, one must be a careful student of the Scriptures, not of silly stories such as these. While still fairytales, these stories are set in modern surroundings rather than the land of Faerie! Each story is unique unto itself, and doesn't reference any other story, world or character elsewhere.

Underground Revolution by LeeannJohnston137
17 parts Ongoing
In a world of breathtaking beauty, where humans and elves coexisted, a fantasy revolution was sparked by humanity's lust for power. The elves, being the first inhabitants of the planet, had developed a deep understanding of life and peace, earning them the trust of the great dragons, which granted them elemental powers. Which the elves returned their gratitude by treating their beloved creatures as the God's they were. As humans evolved at a rapid pace, they began to encroach on elven territories, leading to the creation of canyons and mountains to separate the two races. Despite this, a forbidden love blossomed between a human and an elf, but it was short-lived due to their differing lifespans. However, their friendship endured, and the earth elves built a bridge and paths to facilitate harmony between the two races. Over time, the elves shared their magical knowledge with humans, but humanity's selfish desires led them to destroy the elven race and their city of Amma. Despite the odds, a small group of elves continued to live secretly among humans, awaiting the day when they could rise again.
