Damnation Of Devotion ✔ by LadyInLostYearn

"I would've prayed for Them to go easy on you too." He moves and his eyes are on me, eyes where they are brimming with tears, but his soft smile confuses me. Gently caressing my temple, he gazes at me as if I'm the most delicate treasure. His lips kiss my fingers. "They did. A few years late but They did. Their mercy on me is you." ______________ While World War II is absorbed in its own devastation, a runaway slave stumbles upon a meadow. He is saved by a curious, lonely spirit and builds an affinity with her; but will he be her only salvation or eternal damnation? Either way, she can't let him go. And neither can he... as they're more similar than they thought. With unexpected gifts and losses coming their way, the starry-eyed lovers go on a journey for a sense of peace through a strange reality, a stark contrast to her own. The human world. Not an easy feat. Especially where ghosts and dreadful creatures are concerned. ☾✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧☽ Cover art by DuskBeetle This story isn't drama-filled and hasty despite the dramatics and the hassles. ▪︎ Ludus/Eros/Pragma & Philia ▪︎ Grumpy x Sunshine ▪︎ Interracial Couple ▪︎ 93k-98k words ▪︎ WARNING: Death, war, and miscarriage themes, harsh language, mild violence, implied trafficking Copyright © 2021 by L.I.

The Way The String Goes - Dungeons And Dragons by ESMorelli

This a world filled with danger, loss, and unresolved guilt. We are burdened with the weight of past mistakes, and find ourselves amid a harrowing situation alongside friends, grappling with the fear of death and the consequences of our actions. As we reflect on our tangled relationships and the secrets we've kept hidden, complexities await within the lines. With the promise of more adventures to come and the ominous presence of unresolved conflicts, we go on a journey through a realm where every decision carries profound consequences, and where the threads of fate intertwine in unexpected ways.

As You See It by SoTheStoryBeginz

We all see things in our own way. It makes us unique, it helps us build character, others times it harms us and those around us. This is a story about a young adult's mental troubles as he is stuck in his life not knowing what he wants to do with it. A journey through the old tales he and his former friends used to write together as he begins to add to them as he sees it. Filled with laughter, happiness, anger, sadness, and accomplishment. He will travel through ancient ruins, an underwater advanced civilization, and compete in a space dance tournament. With various self-created antagonists standing in his way and also familiar faces to help him along the way. A tale about tales. A journey to clear sort out the thoughts and troubles in his mind. This is as our character Donny sees it. Artist Instagram: @caffeine.psd -Hope you learn a thing or two from it and enjoy my free writing. ALSO make fanart if you want and tag me! Also, comment lots I love feedback thanks! - by STSB

A girl, that is born of 2 element users, will be able to wield all 4 elements, and more. She will have the ability to do anything. She is to save the world, from and impending doom. But not alone. A boy, born of regular parents, but with high status, is to help her. He is to keep her safe, from herself and from the ones she loves. He is supposed to save the world with her. Love? Impossible, right? You'd be amazed what you can find between all this chaos. Secrets, Pain, Torment, Love, and most of all, finding oneself.
