Lady Merreth of Sable House  is on the run, seeking escape from a the consequences of brutal murder she may or may not have committed.  Her political enemies have no doubt of her guilt, though, and intend to see her executed.  

With no where to hide within the Matriarchy, she flees to the western frontier where a brutal war with the steppe clans is being waged.   There, cast out of the nobility, and forced to keep company with the commoners with which the Matriarchy wages its war, all she needs to do is survive.  

Her enemies within the nobility want her dead, the commoners are suspicious of her, and the steppe clans are closing in.   How hard could it be?

Cursed: Traitor's Trail by LSMatthews
43 parts Complete
Aya Du-Mara knew that life on the steppes was dangerous, but life on the steppes after being banished from clan and family? Well, that was deadly. What was she supposed to do now? And if she had to be cursed, couldn't there be some kind of consolation? Of course not, in fact, her only reward was a power she didn't want, one that was going to get her killed. And hunted. Her only refuge is to trust the very people she had been raised to fear. Victims of the curse...the damned, if legend can be believed. But, unfortunately, they have their own problems. Big ones. Someone was going to have to sort that out. Why did she have a feeling that someone was going to have to be her?

The Empty Ones (Fantasy Romance) by Jinx-01
15 parts Ongoing Mature
In the realm of Quomared, which occupies the biggest part of the continent, magic is a scarce and precious resource. Fewer and fewer humans are born magic bearers throughout the last decades. Zaretha is the only daughter of the Alsayid, religios leader and grand mage of the country, the most powerful still-living sorcerer on the continent in service of the emperor. She is, however, born empty, magicless, to everyone's disappointment. An attempt at a coup d'etate takes place after her twelfth birthday, and her father is assassinated under mysterious circumstances. An orphan now, she is brought to live in The Priory of the White Stones, a home for girls from families that have or had magic-bearing members. They are schooled to be concubines or wives that a noble family can acquire for their heir, because even if magic-less, they still carry the gene and have a fifty percent chance to bear a magic-yielding child. __________________ Mentions: Please don't copy and all that.

Acting normal is not the same as being normal. No one knows that truth better than Suthe Montikwe. Born with the unlucky genes of a distant druith ancestor, she's had to hide her talents in order not to be outcast by society. Her strategy is to smile, keep quiet, and work hard. While that method may keep her safe, it's also alienated her from her neighbors and friends, and the worry that she may be discovered is never far from her thoughts. When her country sends out a warrant to capture anyone who practices magic, Suthe is forced to seek refuge elsewhere, all the while wondering at the sudden proclamation. Why has the government taken an interest in her, and when will she be able to return home? Unsatisfied with her lack of answers, Suthe decides to investigate. But the more she looks, the deeper she gets herself into trouble, and she comes to realize that this mystery does not involve her country alone. The threat of war looms on the horizon, and Suthe will need to put her trust in the strangers she meets, including a dangerous spy wanted for the betrayal of his own country. But most importantly, Suthe will need to trust herself, and her abilities, if she ever wants to see home again. ~*~Current cover by Amanda-Mae ~*~ ~*~Previous cover by italychick~*~
Holy Gladiator by CrypticTwinkie
13 parts Complete Mature
The tale of a priestess turned gladiator after a raid on the village, resulting in her and her compatriots being kidnapped with any other surviving townsfolk to the duke's colosseum. There they are forced to fight or die trying, some not even getting that chance. Death is around the corner at any missteps. Perhaps there is a way out of this. Will the priestess become too corrupted by the gore? Or will she find a way out of this? A challenge I received from a friend, the problem is that the challenge itself is a spoiler, so it'll be placed all the way at the end in case you're too nosey to find out yourself. Be warned there's a good lot of gore, some even drawn out in art pieces, so if you can't look at gore either I wouldn't suggest reading it, though the art pieces themselves aren't good.
