DELWYN: Throne of Thorns
Varfaún is on the brink of war. The once-great kingdom now rots under the rule of King Arrand Galborn, a tyrant whose hunger for power has twisted the land and its people. His armies march under a banner of blood, and in the blackened depths beneath his fortress, something far more sinister stirs. Delwyn Aldsund was once Galborn's sworn bodyguard-until she betrayed him. Sentenced to death, she awaited the executioner's blade, only to be rescued at the last moment by a mysterious cloaked elf, Vaelor. Now hunted by the king's Black Hounds, she flees across the fractured realm, burdened by questions without answers. Why did Vaelor save her? And what horrifying truth lies at the heart of Galborn's growing power? With the rebellion rising and dark forces creeping into the world, Delwyn and her unlikely allies must make a desperate journey to Ember Peaks, the last bastion of hope. But what awaits them is beyond anything she imagined-a hidden stronghold, a council of leaders who know more about her past than she does... and a weapon of legend slumbering beneath the mountain. The war for Varfaún has only begun.

Fantasy: The Beginning of the End
Here are the first ten chapters of my fiction novel, Fantasy: The Beginning of the End. These chapters complete about half of the book and represent the whole first part of the novel. Synopsis for my novel, Fantasy: The Beginning of the End: Long ago, the world of Fantasy was torn apart by a ravaging war. The nations splintered after the bloody conflict, leading to centuries more of long-lasting hatreds and the building of walls both physical and unseen between Fantasy's people. Despite the years gone by, the wounds of the past threaten to tear open once more as old evils and new threats rise. In the midst of quickening strife, two young men named Blaise Thiessen and Darius O'Neil depart from their homeland on a quest none expect them to succeed in--or even survive. Along the way, they must confront prejudices long stoked, uncover plots deeply hidden, and open gates which have not opened in centuries. Fantasy: The Beginning of the End is a tale of camaraderie, perseverance, and believing in oneself in an uncaring, brutal world. This story of discovery follows the paths of two unlikely heroes as they rise above the expectations of others and create their own legend. I am always open to comments, critiques, and tips, so please feel free to share your ideas!Complete

Paragon - Book I
*COMPLETE* There are whispers across the kingdoms that the Paragon, that strangely gifted person who can wield all four Skills, has been found. They're wrong, of course. No one has caught the Paragon. Allayria should know: she's it. But Allayria doesn't want to be the Paragon, and in her pursuit of freedom she finds herself enmeshed in a web of lies, caught in a group who might be even more dangerous than she could have imagined. Still, she's not the only one who has problems: bigger tides of change and danger are shifting across the world she has been assigned to protect. The Jarles, a kingdom in the east, has begun moving across its borders, and there are strange murmurings about what they have done, and where all the children they abducted have gone. Faced with responsibilities she never wanted, and a life she thought she could never have, Allayria must decide how she will help--and if she will be the Paragon at all. _____________________ WIP Cover art and written work by Azi.

The Exiled King | ✔
Fifty years ago, demons invaded the mortal realm of Dargon, leaving a trail of destruction across the five kingdoms. The six Guardians of that generation united the kingdoms and fought back against the demons, scattering their ashes to the winds. Then, they vanished into legend, and with them, their powers. When the lost powers awaken in six strangers across the mortal realm once again, they seek answers... What danger has compelled the powers to reappear after half a century of peace? There are rumours that another demon army gathers in the fiery realm of the Abyss, greater than the first and led by a cunning mastermind whose motivations are unknown. But something doesn't add up. The deeper they dig, the more twisted the truth becomes and the more uncertain their path forward. Who... or what must they truly save their world from? As destinies unravel and loyalties are tested, one question lingers: What if saving the world... means trusting the very force that could end it? An epic trilogy of gods, mortals, and fates intertwined-where it seems that things may have been set in motion long before anyone could ever have anticipated and the path forward may just be the one that ends in death.
