A hunt for a magical treasure that could pay a dowry - or win a war.

Raltarn and his uncle are entrepreneurs, struggling to make an honest living - or failing that, any sort of living - as Raltarn scrapes together a dowry for his fiancée Shanu. Shanu's father, tired of waiting, gives Raltarn an ultimatum - double your fortune in three months or the wedding is off. 

While clearing junk from a dead man's house, Raltarn finds a magic mirror that can communicate instantaneously with an identical mirror over great distances. The pair could provide him with a dowry - and might give his country the edge it needs in the long war with its neighbour. When the other mirror proves to be thousands of miles away, across dangerous seas and unexplored lands, Raltarn and his uncle decide the risks are worth it, but they soon discover they are not the only ones who see the opportunity for power and profit...

Please note: I won't be uploading the whole book to Wattpad, at least not for the foreseeable future. I'll be going as far as chapter 10, which is about a fifth of the way through. If you like the story enough to want to read the rest of it, it's available as an ebook and in print from Amazon, and as an ebook from Smashwords. Or see my website at http://www.pembers.net for a list of other retailers.

The Mirror Seas [UNCOMPLETED] by SpongeGoesHard
29 parts Ongoing
The Mirror Seas are an otherworldly expanse that stretch far beyond the horizon, appearing at first glance like calm waters but, in truth, made of enchanted glass. Their surface shimmers and reflects the sky and everything around it with eerie clarity, as if reality itself is duplicated upon them. Beneath the glass lies the Mirror Realm, a dark and distorted version of the surface world where reflections take on lives of their own-sometimes twisted, dangerous, and independent. The seas are not static; they shift subtly, their glassy surface rippling like liquid in moments of high magic or danger. Sailing across them is perilous, as sailors often report glimpses of their reflections behaving differently from their true selves, or seeing visions of things that haven't happened yet-or perhaps, things that never will. These glimpses lure many to madness or worse. Navigating the Mirror Seas requires great skill and a strong will, as the deeper one sails, the thinner the veil between the two worlds becomes, and the more reality itself warps. Ships can get trapped in pockets where the mirrored world pulls them down beneath the glass, never to return. Only the bravest-or the most desperate-dare to cross these treacherous waters, seeking power, knowledge, or something lost. At their heart lies the mysterious source of the Mirror Seas' power-an ancient artifact tied to the lost race of **mirror-walkers**, beings who once ruled both realms. Few have ventured there and lived to tell the tale, and fewer still have returned unchanged. (This novel is heavily inspired by One Piece yk the Anime... or something like that)

Her vain step-mother, desperate to be the 'fairest of them all' attempts four times to have her killed, until her prince comes to save the day. But what if Snow wasn't a princess, but a prince. And the queen's antique silver mirror contained not just her reflection, but a girl. Mirror can no longer remember her name - or life - before the queen imprisoned her. All day, every day, she finds herself at the queen's beck and call; a life of endless servitude and isolation. Snowdon is approaching his 18th birthday and is an increasing threat to the queen's right to rule. And his looks are putting him in the running for her 'fairest' title too. So the queen decides the quickest way to solve all her problems is to get rid of Snowdon. Permanently. But the girl watching their every move has other ideas.

The Duchesses by silviaaaclaira
103 parts Complete Mature
Aurora opens her eyes only to feel the agonising pain in her body. That is to be expected when there has been an accident. It's excruciatingly painful. Aurora groans in pain and pulls off the blanket, taking in her surroundings. It is more appropriate for a hospital interior design to look to the mediaeval era. Not shabby, but more on the extravagant side. The nurses' attire, on the other hand, appears odd. Someone said out of nowhere, "Her Grace, please wake up! Call the doctor right away!" Aurora approaches the mirror and looks at the woman with deep red eyes in it. The woman had blonde hair that, while a little messy, flowed perfectly over her shoulder. Her fair complexion lends her an ethereal appearance. Not to mention that her outfits make her look like a noblewoman from a historical series. She pinches herself, only to realise that the blonde woman staring at her is herself. A thought struck her mind, as she utters her first statement in this world, "Fuck me". Medea has finished her work, but she is still unsure how to fix all of the messes. She hasn't been herself in a long time, and it's bothering her. The throne seems so far away, and the weight of the burden grows heavier with each passing day. A letter from the Imperial Palace has arrived, instructing the Duchess to look after the House of Smith's Duchess of Light, Natalie Wilson Smith. As an evil scheme was about to unfold, she smiled wickedly. 'This is my new card.' p/s: I can't find the original owner of the photo of the cover, if you know or you are the owner of the cover.
