Rio is trying to get along in the world. But it's hard with amnesia. She can't remember anything. Not even who she is, only waking up in a desert. The only clue she has about herself is a bracelet with a single charm on it. Reading her name, and on the back, the phrase: "Choose the sands or the water". However, no one has seen rivers or springs close to her town in years. Water has to be imported. And by driving, you can get to see a body of water in 48 hours time. But since waking up in the desert, Rio has been working at an inn, where she also lives. And the phrase on her bracelet is not just a phrase, it's a prophecy.

Gale, a young mage-in-training aching to prove herself, is sent on a simple job to handle the purported animal attacks the desert people seem unable to fend off any longer. Believing the tales of shadowbeasts to be superstitious fancy, she expects to encounter nothing more than mirages and whispers on the wind. What she finds is hatred given form and vengeance given flesh, waiting for the moment to strike. The barrier is weakened, wavering, and an ancient enemy is gathering its strength to break free of its eternal prison. Gale must find a way to restore the barrier, or else die in a war millennia in the making.Complete
Realm of Renee
Imagine waking up one morning, with no memories of the past three months. Learning that everyone you know is either injured, dead or brainwashed. And trying to remember your memories may result in coma or brain death, or atleast that's what the mysterious ISA claim. Don't worry, it gets better. Your past self has left behind a document, narrating all the events that has happened in the three months. A love story. Between two teenagers, one is a Human and the other, a Spirit. A love that made you do things, feel things, believe in things that you normally wouldn't have. Something that has blinded a rational person like you, maybe for the better, or worse. A love that was the best thing that had ever happened to you. And the worst part? You'll probably never remember any of it ever again. Join Renee and Noah, as they wind their way through carefully planned murders, prying eyes of the ISA, all while creating something highly illegal: The Realm of Renee. ***** 🥇1st place under Fantasy in the Carnival Awards. #1 in #realm.Complete

Sands of Destiny
In the year 2500, a vast desert world is ruled by the Middle Eastern Empire, a dominion of advanced cities, stark social hierarchies, and unrelenting sands. At the heart of this system lies Karma, a divine power bestowed upon a rare 5% of the population. These abilities bring both extraordinary capabilities and devastating consequences. Those born with Karma are elevated to the highest social castes, while the majority toil beneath them, reliant on technology and raw strength for survival. The story follows Layla Al-Nazir, a hardened mercenary haunted by a troubled past. She wields the crystalline power of Blades of Eternity, a Karma as deadly to her enemies as it is punishing to herself. Layla roams the desert as a lone wolf, eschewing allegiances in a land ruled by oppressive forces like the Empire's Eternals, a group of elite Karma wielders who enforce the imperial will. But the sands of fate begin to shift when whispers of rebellion arise from the Eternal Sand Sect, a mysterious cult capable of challenging the Empire's supremacy. Amidst this chaos, Layla must navigate dangerous alliances, including the idealistic fugitive Kaito Shirogane and the calculating inspector Mei Nakamura, each with their own ties to the powers governing this unforgiving world. In a realm where loyalty is a currency, power is fleeting, and the cost of freedom is steep, Layla must confront her destiny and the truth hidden beneath the shifting sands. Sands of Destiny is a story of resilience, power, and survival in a world where every choice carries the weight of Karma.![The Test [Book One of The Test] (Watty Award Winner 2014)](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/14140332-256-k920684.jpg)

The Prophecy of Water | TheWattys2018 Shortlister ✔️
[Wattys2018 Shortlist] [Bootcamp Mentorship Mentee 2020] [Insidious Awards - 1st place/Action/Adventure] "Squinty, I... Help me! Please! You have to help me!" Squinty huffed at him as the horse might snort at an annoying fly it couldn't get rid of. "A...a... an apple," he stammered. "I just... stole an apple!" ---- When water is controlled by those in power, even a mere apple can be a catalyst. For Squinty, it was the start of everything. Finding Grizzly. Losing Roko. Becoming a Vigil. Discovering she had the power to become invisible. For Nalina, the threat of a new Water War was even closer to home; her beloved brother was the one initiating it. To Drian, water formed the core of his belief system, defined who was - and was not - worthy, and justified the treatment of the underground-dwelling Wellers. An orphan girl, determined to do what was right. A princess, petitioning for peace. An abbot, torn between his religion, and his experience. Each with an Etching, a unique power that surely makes them special; a tie to something more, something extra, something beyond the Squareworld.
