Blood trickled from the guard's now open throat as Alec, dagger in hand, stepped from behind him and let the body hit the floor with a dull thud. 
"I'm here for the princess. But whether or not you live to tell the tale, is up to you."

Young  warrior Alec embarks on a quest in search for his kidnapped love with only his wit and a single clue as to the identity of her captors to go on. But what he finds, is a conspiracy that could shake the foundation of the fragile political climate of his world, because sometimes, the truth is more dangerous than lies.

Crimson Tide: Under the Ashen Veil. by ZANIAWADEFICTION
9 parts Ongoing Mature
"The gods are silent. The surface is ash. And something ancient just opened its eyes underground." Beneath the shattered remains of the old world, survivors live by the light of dying ley-lines and the brutal order of the Guilds. Kaelen Vire, a mercenary with a haunted past, and Rook Dastan, his wolf-blooded companion, expected another job. What they found instead was a child-abandoned, ley-sick, and impossible. The boy shouldn't be alive. He hums with magic that should not exist. And the deeper they go, the more the world bends around him. Now pursued by cult fanatics, hunted by relic-born horrors, and tangled in a prophecy no one remembers writing, Kaelen and Rook must decide: save the child, or survive the world that wants him forgotten. The Stones are stirring. The Ashen Veil is watching. And something lost is calling itself home. Author Note: "It explores identity through queerness, loss, and transformation. The world of Emberdeep and beyond is not safe. It is brutal, beautiful, and dripping with myth made flesh." CONTENT DISCLOSURE: CRIMSON TIDE - THE ASHEN VEIL This story contains mature themes including post-apocalyptic survival, body horror, psychological trauma, cult manipulation, interdimensional war, and the existential burden of inherited power. Viewer discretion is advised for depictions of violence, grief, and magical corruption. This is not a tale of heroes-it is a chronicle of chosen scars and the price of remembering.

COMPLETE #1 in Fantasy #1 in Adventure #1 in Historical Fiction ---------- Sometimes, believing helps us to see truth. Other times, we need a little evidence to believe. But there is truth behind everything; every false manoeuvre, ever little lie...a small piece of truth is hidden. Just like truth is wound into legends too. Growing up best friend to the future King, Arabelle never really thought her life could go wrong. Whenever she wanted something, or needed something, she would get it. Then she lost her father at a young age and Arabelle was forced into a world of dresses, balls, and lies. Being a tomboy, Arabelle would have rather been out on her horse doing archery practice with her brothers. When Arabelle gets curious and sneaks into a forbidden area of the castle, she discovers a deadly secret: her bloodline is sacred, dating back to a legend surrounded by the one thing she knows not to be true. Unsure what to do, she gets caught up in a series of events that lead to her being hidden and whisked away from the only familiar place she knew. After making some unlikely allies, Arabelle sets off on a journey to find the legend of the last dragon egg. Fate has something big in store for her; will she be able to withstand the pressure of it all?There is one thing Arabelle needs to learn to survive this new place... Some things are more than a legend. ---------- © Isabella Espe 2013 - 2019 This is a work of fiction.

Journey: The Redeeming Trliogy

44 parts Complete Mature

Journey: when the trip is more important than the destination In a world of half-truths, nothing and nobody are at first what they seem. However, to Altan, it doesn't matter who's fake when nobody will challenge you in the first place. Raised by wealthy parents and essentially having his life laid out for him like a red carpet since birth, nothing could have prepared him for what he would soon have to brave. A scrap with an odd stranger in the forest will turn into a full blown adventure in a realm forgotten by the world. Forced to travel with a cryptic boy named Griffin, Altan will soon discover he has larger problems to face than finding his way home. As they say curiosity killed the cat, and now Altan is caught in the middle of an all out war between good and evil, and must first survive if he ever wants to return to some semblance of a normal life. *Completed, actively undergoing editing
