Grall, the one who made the mistake, was banished from his tribe and forced to wonder the world. Grodak, the one who worked to fix the mistake the most and reclaim the honor that was lost, was made the new chief. Ten years later, the small mistake now hounds at the both of them as they make their way to Whitewater, in hopes they can fix the troubles they have.

Graze Her Heart
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.Complete
Concordian of the Two Ends
150 years... That's how long the war has been going on in Equilibria: between the United Federation of Tachyon, a technologically advanced empire, and the Arcane Order of Seirion, a powerful magical empire. This long and unending war of conquest and expansion has led to many suffering in this world, as those who were in between them were squashed underneath the feet of the marching force. Occasionally, some people in this world may obtain resolites, a mysterious white crystal capable of transforming into powerful melee weapons. Although its inner workings and reason for existence are unknown, those with resolites, also known as resolutors, were hunted down by the empires as a key to creating elite warriors enhanced with the power of resolites. One such resolutor was Lorian Ashwood, who had obtained a particularly powerful resolite after his home village, Tragula, was destroyed by a mysterious ray of light coming from the sky, destroying everything in its path, including the soldiers from both empires fighting to capture his village. Nobody, not even the powerful empires, knew who was behind it. Eager to know what happened, Lorian ended up joining an aviator group known as the Strife Striders, and together, they went on a journey across the two empires to seek the truth as they completed a task from the King of Machiaville. In their journey, Lorian got to see the world from different perspectives as he interacted with imperial locals, while fighting against the Imperial forces and authority, who were constantly seeking to capture him for the reason mentioned before. Eventually, his eye-opening and arduous journey would develop him into becoming a resolute and just person, known as a Concordian. __________________________________________ Concordian of the Two Ends is now available on both Wattpad and Royal Road!
