Dark beings quietly drive the world toward one of many hellish, apocalyptic outcomes. There are, however, still a few possibilities where peace and goodness can prevail.
"The Machine", the vast, godlike intelligence behind reality, spins and calculates, and the few remaining paths to the UNpocalypse all involve four childhood friends acting together as a catalyst for good.
Can their childhood bonds survive the tests of time and the hardships of adulthood? How can four kids from a poor neighborhood fight against a world of "hidden monsters"?
In this steampunky, machine-age fantasy epic, explore New Anglia, a gritty, powerful nation moving into an age of discovery, but on the cusp of self-destruction. It is a place of illusion, filled with demons disguised as leaders, heroes disguised as the weak, reality-wielders, cross-dimensional visitors, machine-whisperers, and dream-assassins.
New Anglia is a place where the stains of past sins are piled into skins and walk the land in human form, and where normal, good-hearted people can still make a difference.

Ruthless Fate (Book 1 of The Ruthless Empire Series)
In an alternate reality, London is steaming with the latest vehicle inventions and tea. Rumour has it, that Greenfield Corporations is creating their newest invention yet to debut? Could it be a car? Could it be another steam ship? Or maybe something awfully unimaginable? Elora, a reserved and aspiring business owner, focuses on one thing only: Her workshop. She is troubled to find that business has lessened and that more and more of her clients seem to be...sick. The unknown infection has left her with many questions, resulting in her investigating the root of it. However the more she digs, the more she unravels that something could potentially hold the state of London in jeopardy. Mikaelis, a flamboyant and ludicrous son of a Marquis, has his attention on many things. If not disobeying his father, then it's batting his charming smile onto swooning ladies. But that changes the moment he meets his sister's best friend, Elora. To him, she is frustratingly sarcastic and makes crude remarks about his character. No matter how much he loathes her, he also cannot seem to get her out of his mind. So as to gain some sort of repulsion against her, he helps her investigate the ongoing infection in London's alleys. To his surprise, he finds something of her that drags him deeper into his affectionate misery. As the two battle unhinged infected people, grumpy nobles and the whispers of the high society, they struggle to find a way out of the tunnel of neverending chaos. Maybe this could lead to the ruination of London... Ready yourselves for the hot tea that is about to be spilt.

Paragon - Book I
*COMPLETE* There are whispers across the kingdoms that the Paragon, that strangely gifted person who can wield all four Skills, has been found. They're wrong, of course. No one has caught the Paragon. Allayria should know: she's it. But Allayria doesn't want to be the Paragon, and in her pursuit of freedom she finds herself enmeshed in a web of lies, caught in a group who might be even more dangerous than she could have imagined. Still, she's not the only one who has problems: bigger tides of change and danger are shifting across the world she has been assigned to protect. The Jarles, a kingdom in the east, has begun moving across its borders, and there are strange murmurings about what they have done, and where all the children they abducted have gone. Faced with responsibilities she never wanted, and a life she thought she could never have, Allayria must decide how she will help--and if she will be the Paragon at all. _____________________ WIP Cover art and written work by Azi.

MYTHIC LEGENDS: FLAME AND EMPIRE
The war storms at the Frontier... The gods are broken. The empire is burning. And the end has already begun. A warrior with no past unleashes power no mortal should wield. A young ruler clings to a dying crown as his people lose faith. A chaos mage, feared and revered, walks with death in her shadow. Amongst their ranks-two Rifter siblings, wilders of ruin, benders of space and time. Feared. Watched. Leashed by the most powerful. But even under chains, love blooms... and loyalty begins to shift. When the empress falls into a cursed slumber-her unborn child the last ember of prophecy- the empire sends its strongest into the Abyss of Lost Quintessence: A place where even time forgets itself, where silence hungers, and where One of the Roots of the Umbrovyn Tree stands-ancient, cracked, and bleeding memory. Monstrosities roam, daring to strike in daylight. The veils whisper betrayal. Alliances splinter. Some stand frozen, unsure of their next move- fearing one wrong step may provoke the wrath of a dominion vast as a world and cruel as the gods who forged it. Old gods stir, craving redemption through ruin. The Royal House fractures beneath betrayal. A founding father, long patient, now bares their intent- to seize the throne by force, by cunning, by wagering all that is. Their House's malice toward the flawed Royal line can no longer be cloaked. Love will test loyalty. Legends will bleed. And in the dying light of Ether-Space- The Aurora must not fall... Or all realities will burn. 🔥
