disease fantasy sarcasm saviour thief

A seemingly unstoppable disease is quickly spreading through the realm of Itteros. It has many names - The Shaking Death, Rooster Tongue, The Lurgy. No one knows how or why it began and no doctor or magic-worker can figure out how it's being spread. People are disappearing off the streets.

Robin is just a working-class citizen trying to help her parents make a living. She steals from the higher-class society in Obaroth to support the orphanage and because it seems to be the only thing she's good at. 

Nikolas Ciardi is a high-ranking soldier in the King's Military and good friends with the Prince. Everything is going perfectly for him; there's rumour of promotion to General, the beautiful Princess Sage is looking for a suitor, and he's in good graces with the King of Obaroth. 

The unlikeliest of comrades must find a way to stop the Lurgy from killing more people, and the King of Obaroth has a plan. Willing or unwilling, they must journey to the mining town Gomulyn to retrieve an antidote that can stop the Lurgy.

Graze Her Heart by jaydafirebitch1

This is an instalove fantasy story, still in the works! Greya Fussodd, she needs an escape, she didn't expect a tall, broad stranger to interrupt her plan. Quin, a disgustingly attractive cutthroat, focused on his mission, though his target is a bit more distracting than he thought. Her history buried with secrets of things that only existed in her childhood mind. She finds that she and Quin are connected in more ways than the searing heat between them. -------- This isn't serious writing. It's more of a make you wish your life wasn't boring and single fluff piece. Let's be real, that's the only reason we use wattpad. It's super fast paced and it's fantasy. Some characters are NOT human so don't be complaining 'bout how they're real touchy n' stuff.

Chaotic Hearts (Completed) by chereochan

Amara, a free-spirited troublemaker, has never been one to follow the rules. Living in a world of chaos, she's constantly at odds with her broken family and refuses to let anyone control her life. When her family arranges a marriage with Ryan, a sarcastic and seemingly perfect doctor, Amara sees it as an escape from her reality-without realizing just how complicated things will become. She agrees to the marriage to break free from the toxicity of her past, but she never expected Ryan to be so composed, intelligent, and... clingy. Ryan, almost 30, is a highly skilled doctor who's spent most of his life focusing on his career. With his mother pushing him to settle down, Ryan agrees to the marriage with Amara, believing it's a simple arrangement. However, he never anticipated the whirlwind that is Amara. Despite her wild nature, Ryan can't help but be drawn to her fiery personality. The two are constantly clashing as Amara refuses to act like a typical wife, while Ryan's sweet, albeit sarcastic, approach to their marriage has a way of sneaking under her skin. What starts as a chaotic, forced union soon transforms into something deeper. As the months pass, Amara and Ryan are forced to confront their own fears and insecurities, learning that their marriage is more than just an escape from the past-it's a chance to fight for each other. Between late-night arguments, unexpected tenderness, and growing affection, both Ryan and Amara will have to decide if they can let go of their pasts and embrace a future together, full of love, laughter, and the chaos that makes their hearts beat a little faster.

Magical Misappropriations by steveheuser

The life of a thief is hard, but glamorous. With enough money, even the lowest-born citizen of the shining jewel of Voughtberg can carve out a comfortable niche, enjoying the silent prestige that comes with it. The watchmen doff their hats at the masters, and after nights of derring-do, they retire to their hidden beds, and beautiful men and women. Or so Roland and Jochim have heard. Unfortunately, they're still stuck doing whatever task is assigned to them by their miserly employer. Whatever pittance they are gifted has to be supplemented by mundane work under the burning sun, shoulder to shoulder with the sweating masses of the city. These, however, are the necessary burdens for the future they desire, burdens that have been shouldered by generations of thieves. Certainly, nothing so capricious that the accidental theft of a simple paintbrush could disturb it... Imagine the surprise when after its discovery, they are pursued by strange men, and stranger monsters, intent on their death, and the brush's retrieval. With only their wits, and the help of a few friends, the pair of thieves are thrown into a struggle to find out the mystery of the strange artifact before they, or the life they cling to, are lost forever.

The Chronicles of Elysium: The Shadow's Embrace by Tyler6318

In the mystical land of Elysium, where magic weaves through every leaf and whispers secrets to the wind, a darkness begins to stir. For centuries, the balance between light and shadow has been maintained by the guardians of Elysium, a group of powerful sorcerers sworn to protect the realm from evil. But when a long-forgotten prophecy resurfaces, foretelling the rise of a malevolent force known only as the shadow, the fate of Elysium hangs in the balance. As whispers of dark omens spread like wildfire, a young orphan named Lyra finds herself thrust into a world of magic and danger. With nothing but a mysterious amulet and her wits to guide her, Lyra embarks on a perilous journey to uncover the truth behind the prophecy and stop the shadow from consuming the realm. Along the way, she allies herself with a ragtag group of misfits: a brooding warrior with a haunted past, a cunning thief with a heart of gold, and a wise old sage with secrets of his own. Together, they must navigate treacherous forests, ancient ruins, and deadly creatures as they race against time to thwart the shadow's sinister plans. But as the darkness closes in around them, Lyra discovers that the true power to save Elysium lies within herself - if only she can unlock it in time. Filled with breathtaking magic, epic battles, and unforgettable characters, "The Chronicles of Elysium: The Shadow's Embrace" is a spellbinding tale of courage, friendship, and the enduring strength of the human spirit in the face of darkness.

Serenus - Sarcastic Newcomer Edition by FactAndLore

So, here we are, all of us, lost in this mystical realm with zero memory of where we came from. It's like we all took the world's worst vacation, and now nobody can find their way back home. And guess what we have to guide us? A poem. Because why bother with maps or instructions when you can have cryptic, poetic nonsense? It's almost like Serenus wants us to play a twisted game of "figure it out before you die." Now, the world itself is a total trip. It's a magical land where anything is possible, except, apparently, for things making sense. But don't let the pretty flowers and magical buffets fool you-something's not quite right in this enchanted Eden. You've got all these resources lying around just begging to be used for peace, justice, and all those other warm, fuzzy ideals. It's like someone set up the perfect civilization starter kit, but forgot to mention that some of these folks are dead set on turning this dreamland into their own personal dystopia. And with their magical abilities, they're like toddlers wielding chainsaws-adorably dangerous, but mostly just dangerous. Meanwhile, me and my merry band of misfit friends are stuck trying to save this world from self-destruction. Because apparently, we're the only ones who read the brochure about this place being a "civilized society based on values." And while we're at it, I'm also on a little side quest to answer the age-old question: Who am I? It's not like I have bigger things to worry about, like, I don't know, preventing magical Armageddon or anything. With a charming mix of wit, sarcasm, and a healthy dose of "what-the-heck-is-going-on," the story of Serenus follows our nameless protagonist as they unravel the mysteries of this strange land, all while trying to avoid becoming dino-chow or the latest victim of a magical mishap. It's a tale of self-discovery, magical frisking, and just trying to survive another day in this oh-so-serene-and completely crazy-world.

Of Disappearances and Dragons - Complete by HelsBells7

Finnian Thysor's younger brother Archibald is a magician. It can often come in quite handy having someone he can turn to for free spells and charms who still owes him for years of brotherly annoyance. However it can just as often cause problems that Finn would rather not have to deal with. Such as when a miscast spell causes Archie to disappear without a trace. And then it isn't long before the magical pleas for help start arriving. So, armed with the name of a beach on the mysterious Arys Isle, Finn sets out to find him. But Arys Isle is a strange place and the people are even stranger. Not to mention the ever present rumour that dragons have been spotted on the Isle once more. -*-*-*- A completed short story/novelette around 11,000 words that I will be updating every few days.

The Sparkless Flame by lunastarliren

Aeliasia Illunai (Aeli, to her very short list of friends) is a magicless girl just trying to survive in a world where magic is as common as bread. Between nosy aristocrats, relentless rebels, and ominous prophecies, Aeli's biggest ambition is to be left alone to plant carrots. But destiny--and a very pushy prophet--has other plans. When she's told she's connected to an ancient, world-altering power, Aeli's first response is to laugh. Loudly. After all, her only claim to fame so far has been acting as the punching bag at her fancy academy. Armed with sarcasm, a growing band of misfits, and exactly zero magical ability, Aeli is dragged into a rebellion against the all-powerful Solvarian Empire. Her mission? Find and destroy the shards of a mythical artifact before the empire unleashes its so-called solution to "save the land"--whatever that means. No pressure. With danger lurking around every corner, sparks flying between teammates, and a capital city that literally glows with corruption, Aeli is beginning to think destiny might be more of a curse than a calling.
