Born in a land with no name nor parents. A baby, said to be a gift from the gods themselves, cried softly in the snow, with only a thick blanket and a dark blue medallion.
Accepted by the nearby kin of dragons, she grew up knowing only the draconian language, learning elven and a bit of human language from the elder dragons. Her silver hair, pale skin from the lack of sun in the snowy regions of the north and glowing golden eyes made her look unique. Taken from homeland while near the ocean by a royal elven boat she must learn to gain full control of her powers and get back home.
Friendships, Enemies and many more encounters will change the way she perceives other races, or not.

But never once has she seen one of its people-until the day a Colorless boy turns up in her village, carrying one of his people's most prized possessions: the pendant of Free Will.

Elwin is a dusk elf who happens to be a dwarven blade-smith in a world ruled by the gods and their children. She works under her legendary blade-smithing father in their forge.

Making blades and wielding fire magic was what mattered to her in the end. On a day that started like any other, a strange traveler appears with a strange request. Elwin is thrown into traveling outside her dwarven city and into the world that she had been subconsciously hiding from and embark on a quest to kill a god and save the world from a dark age of bloodshed.Complete

Of Shadows and Starlight | E. Peredhel
Set in the world of Middle-earth, during the time of The Rings of Power, Melisane, the youngest sister of Finrod and Galadriel, unlike her sister's mind-reading abilities, possesses the divine gift of prophetic dreams, able to glimpse the future, past, and unseen realms. As a child, she was captivated by tales of dragons-creatures of wind, sky, and fire-and often dreamed of them, their power and grace haunting her thoughts. In the aftermath of the Elves' flight to Middle-earth, the loss of her brother Finrod, and Galadriel's departure to hunt Sauron, Melisane is left battling grief and feelings of abandonment. Despite her skill as a deadly commander and warrior, she struggles to find purpose, withdrawing from those who care for her as her dreams grow stronger. One fateful day, she stumbles upon a newly hatched, abandoned dragon-just as her dreams had foretold. Believing this moment signals a change in her destiny, Melisane takes the creature under her care. Concerned by her reclusive nature, Elrond, the Half-elven, and an old family friend, seeks her out and is shocked to find her raising the dragon. Agreeing to help her, he assumes she will eventually let it go, but their shared bond over the creature slowly rekindles their long-lost friendship-and something deeper. As shadows loom once again over Middle-earth, Melisane and Elrond must navigate the growing darkness, all while facing the uncertain futures that their hearts and dreams reveal. Will their newfound connection withstand the threats closing in, or will the starlight of their bond be consumed by the shadows? _ "You sleep coiled; tightly wound. Hands made fists beneath the pillows, clenched above cotton sheets. You are at war, even in your dreams, cenedril af fae nín. Let me help you."
Nihilos Draconum Chapter VII(Actual final book version. Updated)
These are a series of standalone chapters from my upcoming book, Nihilos Draconum: Rise of a Warrior. It is meant to be a preview of my writing style, and as a means of gaining interest in the book before it is published. As well as gaining a fan base beforehand. The first chapter starts off slow. It entails the life of one of the more important characters in the would be series, Sacreia Valen. It begins with her mother and a little history of the elves. It goes down to how Sacreia was conceived, and what was the result of her birth. Being a half dragon, Sacreia's life is more or less filled with loneliness. People fear and loathe her for the power that slumbers within her. The Red Dragon blood within her causes Sacreia to perform violent and murderous acts as she runs simply on instinct and emotion. Before long she is known as the Crimson Whirlwind by many. But is she truly evil? Or is it Humanity?

The Blood Between Us
The elves arrived a decade ago, bringing rations and magic to aid in the war. But whispers spread of a deeper purpose-of something, or someone, they were searching for. A nameless orphan girl, raised as human, has only ever known hunger and hardship. But when a single drop of blood reveals her true identity, her world is shattered. Torn from the only life she's ever known, she is thrust into an elegant and foreign world. Elven society demands she become one of them-to walk, speak, and think as they do. But she is still the girl who fought for scraps on the streets, still the child who flinches at a raised hand, still the survivor who trusts no one. Even her own mother, who mourned her death, is a stranger. As war looms and both sides demand her allegiance, she must find her place in a conflict centuries in the making. But first, she must survive a world that sees her as both its salvation and its greatest threat.
Far to the north lies a land in black and white. A curse lies upon it, robbing its people of their courage, free will and emotion to lock them in three pendants in the hands of their leaders.
