RISE OF ETHERIA
After the great war against Hagorn and the fall of the Hadezar army, peace returned to Encantadia. Zonia, the fated child of prophecy, had given the ultimate sacrifice-laying down her life to fulfill the will of the Diwatas and end the bloodshed that plagued the realms. Her story etched into the sacred scrolls, she became a legend whispered in songs and prayers. With the realm finally at rest, Queen Amihan chose to surrender her crown, entrusting it to the ever-loyal of her youngest sister Danaya, now become the new Hara of Lireo. Amihan, longing for a life beyond duty, had finally chosen love, where she and her beloved Ybrahim were crowned King and Queen of Sapiro, uniting their hearts and their kingdoms. But peace in Encantadia is never eternal. In the shadowed corners of the edge of Encantadia, where time runs differently and vengeance never dies, the Bathaluman Ether-gods of the old and forgotten kingdom-refused to accept defeat. With cruel whispers and ancient magic, she conspired to unearth the past and bend it to their will. Through a forbidden rite, she summoned back Avria, the tyrant queen of Etheria-once destroyed, now reborn. Stronger. Darker. Unforgiving. With no Luntaie to guide the Sang'gres or interpret the signs of fate. Encantadia is left vulnerable to a rising darkness it thought long buried. Old alliances will be tested. New warriors will rise. And the prophecy, thought fulfilled, will reveal a second chapter. For the battle was never truly over. In a world where time bends, and power resurrects-who will protect Encantadia when its greatest defenders are divided?![HENRIETTA: PRAELUDIUM [TO BE EDITED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/295437638-256-k584448.jpg)

A Thorny Tale
Foreword: A plant can thrive or a plant can die with or without attention. Whether it's lovingly nurtured or butchered makes no difference really but sometimes they can come back stronger than ever. It's a relationship where we need each other more than we think about really and we take them all for granted like we do each other. One seed can sow doubt or it can sow hope. Wonder what would happen to the world if such a seed existed inside a person and it finally bloomed? Synopsis: Briar was made a slave and an orphan on the same day she was born. She serves at the castle she was born in, the court of winter. Everyone can command her to do tasks and she has no freedom to leave. Those at the top of this world are the ruling Fae, next are ruling humans, next Fae, free humans, protected slaves and then the banished ones. At least as a slave she has a chance at earning her freedom from a ruling Fae to pardon her. She is also something more which is discovered as she grows up but she must keep it hidden to protect herself. As she masters her skills, she, along with her friends, are given the opportunity to leave and earn her freedom. It's the first step in finding herself and her answers and perhaps it could change her life in ways she couldn't imagine when she was taking everyone's orders in the kitchen. But first she must rescue a prince from a dungeon... (Small warning) Contains suggestions of non consensual sexual relationships of a business kind but no graphic detail.

✅ | Wishing on a Miracle
Warning: I DO NOT OWN DISNEY NOR TWISTED TALES! THIS IS JUST MY OWN IF THEY EVER DO ENCANTO! "What if Mirabel received a magical gift from the miracle, but it wasn't the one she expected?" In the vibrant village of Encanto, every Madrigal family member is gifted with a unique magical power-except Mirabel. But what if the miracle had chosen Mirabel to wield a power no one else could imagine?

As Mirabel struggles to control this overwhelming gift, she inadvertently disrupts the magic that sustains her family and the village. The magic begins to fracture in dangerous ways, forcing Mirabel to confront the true meaning of family, responsibility, and self-acceptance.

Encantadia: Panata ng Pag-ibig at Himagsik
In a realm guarded by four elemental gems-Fire, Water, Earth, and Air-the balance of Encantadia is once again threatened. From the frozen world of Mine-ave rises Mitena, the Ice Queen, with a single purpose: to extinguish the light and enslave the elements under her rule. But in the heart of the cold, fire is reborn. Pirena, former Queen of Hathoria, returns from exile-not just as a monarch, but as a mother, a warrior, and a bearer of hope. Upon her return, she is confronted by a ghost from her past: Azulan, the father of her child, the man she long believed to be dead... now a general in the very army that once crushed her kingdom. Between them lies a love long buried-scarred by betrayal, silence, and years of separation. While Azulan walks the razor's edge as a spy within Mitena's court, Pirena struggles to keep her distance, torn between trust and fear. How do you love a man who vanished in the dark? And how do you forgive him when you still don't understand why? Together with their daughter Cassandra and a new generation of Sang'gres, they must face the wounds of the past, the secrets of the present, and a war that will decide the fate of their world. At every turn, hearts will clash with duty, rage will wrestle with forgiveness, and fire will meet ice. In the end, the question is not who holds the most power-but who is willing to fight for the light... and for love. An epic tale of family, betrayal, redemption, and a love that never truly died. A new generation. A new flame. A new Encantadia.
OUTLAWED
Elara, a young girl born into a broken world, where the royal family holds absolute power and mages-those with the ability to manipulate the elements-are hunted to the death. After witnessing the brutal murder of her father at the hands of the royal family, Elara's mother hides her daughter's identity, pretending to be the mage in order to protect her. But when the royal family learns of a new mage bearing a powerful mark, they arrive at Elara's home, and her mother sacrifices herself to save her daughter. With her mother's death haunting her and the royal family's forces hot on her trail, Elara flees into the woods, unveiling the magic she's kept hidden for years. In the depths of the forest, Elara discovers a hidden group of mages-boys and girls, families-each with their own elemental power: fire, water, earth, air, blood, metal, and ice. For the first time in her life, Elara is not alone. But her refuge is fragile. As the royal family intensifies its search, Elara must decide whether to stay hidden in the shadows or rise up with these newfound allies to reclaim her life and bring justice to those who destroyed her family. With vengeance in her heart, Elara's journey becomes a fight for survival, and a rebellion against the oppressive rule that has outlawed her very existence.
