Ari Hotan was never one for politics. Lera Taxas would rather be running her shop than fighting a tyrannical regime. But the king is dead, dark forces are rising, and no one seems to give a damn about it: except for them. So they fight.

But will the fight fizzle out in the face of brutal, merciless battle? Or will it spread across Lhartaon,  lighting a flame that burns brighter than the darkness of oppression? And, when it's all over, will life ever be the same?

You have the power to find out.

Death of a Guardian by MaxGiannis

* This is the updated version of the novel. In the first book of my new world, we enter The Amber Kingdom, where there is a mad King who created the Kingdom Decency Laws that outlaw all LGBTQ persons. The people are labeled as Indecents and cast away from society to either Kara Wyspa (Punishment Island), or to the border with Iseron to fight day and night against the Kingdoms enemies. Emryk and Aleks are two boys in love. Accepted by their parents, they nonetheless must hide their true selves from the other people of Fortarre. While many agree the laws are wrong, no one is willing to risk the harsh punishments of defending others. The world is also filled with magical beings, God's, and Goddesses. Can the boys with the help of the God's and their children fight to end the laws? Can they succeed in finding and bringing the Aerimoaerian Elves back to the world and restoring the balance of Love back to the Kingdom. As the story unfolds, Emryk and Aleks discover shocking revelations that will forever change their lives. The first book of this new world explores themes of love, sacrifice, and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of oppression. *Temporary cover created from Dall-E

❖ ''ZF 16 Ariomma to unknown vessel. Please identify yourself. Over.'' ❖ Farah and Kazem are twins working aboard the Ariomma, a trading airship that sails the edges of a flat world. Out here is a frontier far from civilization: a place known as the Tideless, where water lifts from the surface of the sea, and great creatures rise with it. Only some of them are known. This is not a sailing path known for its safety, but the crew of the Ariomma have rarely feared their work. That is, until they find the carcass of another ship hanging in the Tideless, decimated by an unknown enemy. Soon, their flight to safety becomes a fight for their lives, as the monster turns its attention on the Ariomma... and them. ❖❖❖ Written for #NONC2022, a community-run novella festival operating in parallel with Wattpad's 2022 Open Novella Contest. Complete. Marked mature for violence and other dark themes. Comments and critiques are both welcome and appreciated. I write characters from many different backgrounds, with many different experiences. If you share those traits and find that I have misrepresented anything, please let me know!

Hiding From Light: A Beauty and the Beast Genderbend by Arieltoria

14 in fairytaleretelling 10/23/22 Princess Luna of Yaquir angered the wrong person. Now she's doomed to be a beast, as ugly on the outside as she is within, unless she can find someone to love her. At first, with her curse, she thought of only one thing. Ashton. The one thing she wanted, but never got. It made her bitter. And now, she's paying the price. /// Brandon has never been like "the others." They turn to the latest forms of technology and entertainment, determined to make the most of every game and fad to come into their hands. All he really wants is a safe haven to turn the pages of a book, and the ability to lose himself in a world of fiction and others' problems. So when he finds out that libraries all over Yaquir are closing down due to decreased usage and an overabundance of E-books, and that his might be next, he decides to take matters into his own hands. He never dreamed he'd actually end up at a castle instead. Just as he never dreamed he'd become hopelessly stuck there either. This is a Beauty and the Beast genderbend, and the third book in the Light series. As with all of my books, it can be read as a standalone. It's rated PG-13 for language and violence. Updates will be every Saturday starting July 9
