Athas is a world of fire and sand. The crimson sun wraps the world in a caul that inevitably suffocates the life from anything that walks, crawls, or flies, and colossal sandstorms scour what grows from the dusty ground. Lightning booms from cloudless skies, and thirsty wind rips moisture from every mouth.

Athas is a land of blood and dust, where desperate tribes of savage bandits sweep out of the salt plains to plunder lonely caravans, where mysterious singing winds call foolish men to slow suffocation in a sea of silt, where legions of slaves are driven to war over a few bushels of moldering grain.

Athas is a land of power and suffering, where the Dragon walks the wastes, leaving glassy sands and befouled lands in his wake, where kings and queens with unspeakable sorcerous might build garish monuments to their suzerainty on the backs of a crashing tide of slaves.

Athas is a world of change. The eternal reign of despotic agony has been dealt a blow with the successful popular revolt in Tyr, now known as the Free City.

If you wander this world, death will hound your every step, but glory will hide behind every turn. Survival is the narrow, crumbling mountain path you must scale every day. As the nomadic elves say in farewell, may Tomorrow never catch you.All Rights Reserved

The Empty Ones (Fantasy Romance) by Jinx-01

In the realm of Quomared, which occupies the biggest part of the continent, magic is a scarce and precious resource. Fewer and fewer humans are born magic bearers throughout the last decades. Zaretha is the only daughter of the Alsayid, religios leader and grand mage of the country, the most powerful still-living sorcerer on the continent in service of the emperor. She is, however, born empty, magicless, to everyone's disappointment. An attempt at a coup d'etate takes place after her twelfth birthday, and her father is assassinated under mysterious circumstances. An orphan now, she is brought to live in The Priory of the White Stones, a home for girls from families that have or had magic-bearing members. They are schooled to be concubines or wives that a noble family can acquire for their heir, because even if magic-less, they still carry the gene and have a fifty percent chance to bear a magic-yielding child. __________________ Mentions: Please don't copy and all that. It makes no sense, just write your own story :). My stories are for mature audience. There will be violence, gore, explicit sex and other stuff not meant for kids. Proceed at your own risk.

The Blade and The Bird by kqbooks

She'd spent many years playing in this forest as a child. While Selene had enjoyed her novels in the warmth of the house, a blanket wrapped around her narrow shoulders, Sidra always came home covered in mud and scrapes from hours out in the wilderness. She'd take an axe out into the forest and pretend to fight off monsters, the terrifying Mystics that her grandmother had told her stories about. She'd pretend to fight Lycans, knocking out their massive teeth one by one. She'd stand atop rocks and throw her axe at the trees, pretending they were wood nymphs come to steal her away. She'd always return home and tell Selene about the monsters she'd fought that day, spinning together a story of courage and bravery for her little sister. She felt that pain in her heart again as she thought of those times. Through the years, she'd stop going into the woods to play, and she'd instead find stories for Selene. Books of all sizes and shapes, no matter the content, because it made her feel close to her sister just as she had before her parents died. She thought of her family now, how she was all alone. Her parents had been gone for years, her grandmother, and now even Selene was missing somewhere. She needed to find her sister, she couldn't lose the last bit of her family. **

Damned bastard (English version) by KevinBerlanger

Dear readers, Allow me to invite you on an introspective journey, an exploration of the intricacies of destiny as I perceive it, not only in my own existence but also through the prism of the characters that populate my creative universe. Destiny, this mysterious force that sometimes seems to guide our steps, takes multiple and changing forms in my mind. It is not a single, predetermined path, but rather a complex interweaving of choices, chances, and necessities. For me, the destiny of each person, whether real or fictional, is like a perpetually evolving tapestry. Each thread represents a decision, an encounter, an unforeseen event. Some threads are thick and solid, forged by our will and deliberate actions. Others are thin, almost invisible, woven by circumstances beyond our control. In the following lines, I invite you to discover how this vision of destiny manifests in my life and in that of my characters. You will see how each decision, each trial, each triumph contributes to weaving a unique and unpredictable story. Prepare to dive into a narrative where reality and fiction intertwine, where destiny is not an end in itself, but a constantly evolving path. Let me tell you how I perceive my own destiny, as well as that of the beings born from my imagination... In a world where supernatural powers shape society, destiny brings together an unlikely group of individuals on a history-laden bridge. Slenth, a young man tormented by his past, crosses paths with Jokash, a powerless colossus, Shalan, a healer whose gifts consume her, Léonen, a man on the brink of suicide, and Ritchard, an object manipulator with mysterious intentions. Their encounter, orchestrated by the invisible threads of destiny, will lead them towards extremely dangerous adventures.

Shadow Weaver (Back on Wattpad 2020!) by Claire-Merle

"Mooooorrrrrrrreeeeeeee, this book is like air, i need it!" @noromance101 "These chapters are written BEAUTIFULLY! You are, without a doubt, my favorite writer on this site. " @nagykt "Reading this feeds my soul." @Yrthraethra Sixteen-year-old Mirra can see people's memories. She is a Shadow Weaver, one of the outlawed, glitter-eyed race feared in her land and forced into brutal slavery as children. She and her brother Kel have escaped their fate by hiding near the frozen mountains. But when bounty hunters snatch Kel, Mirra injured and unable to track long distances will lose him unless she gives herself up to his captors. As as a Shadow Weaver who's survived childhood and whose golden-flecked irises have faded, concealing her talent, Mirra's own value is priceless on the black-market. Taken to a lawless town in the northern territories, Mirra convinces her captors to sell her to a mysterious young man destined for the same province as the officer who has bought her brother. The young man is the Kingdom's missing Prince, feared dead after his escort was attacked on an expedition. He has been in hiding, waiting for a Shadow Weaver whose skill he can use to discover who ordered his assassination. But before he will risk breaking his father's law and taking Mirra to the royal court, he must test her talent and her ability to hide it. If Mirra fails, her hopes of seeing her brother again will be cut by the noose around her neck.

The Forsaken Heir by GodCain

Lorian Aeloria has spent his life striving to live up to the legacy of his noble family. As the firstborn son, the weight of expectation has always been heavy on his shoulders. Despite lacking the magical prowess his family is known for, Lorian has devoted himself to mastering the sword, determined to prove his worth through sheer will and discipline. But no matter how hard he tries, Lorian remains overshadowed-by his sister's brilliance, by his father's disdain, and by a nagging sense that he will never be enough. The closer he gets to his sixteenth birthday, the more uncertain his future becomes, as old family secrets and hidden powers begin to surface. When a series of unexpected events shatters everything he thought he knew, Lorian is forced to question his place in the world and the very foundation of his family's legacy. As he grapples with newfound abilities and the harsh realities of a life far from the one he envisioned, Lorian must forge his own path-one that may lead him down a dark and dangerous road. In a world where power is everything, Lorian is determined to rise above his circumstances, even if it means embracing the shadows that lurk within.

Protector of the Crown by MandySAuthor

COMPLETED BOOK I was trained to be a weapon for the kingdom. I was forced into servitude to the King after my family was ripped from me. My new life was covered in the blood of my family...and now I had to protect the royal family who ordered my parents' death. They're all monsters, except for him...he was my charge and as much as I wanted to hate him, the prince was nothing like his vicious father. He was a warm light in my cold and dark world. I was supposed to be controlled, cold, calculating and deadly, but he made me crave freedom, warmth and all the things I thought died with my family. I no longer knew my path...but I knew it led to him. ****** Don't hesitate to let me know what you think of my book or if you see grammatical errors/plot holes! *16+ is recommended...sex is implied but not described (I came up with that little rhyme while I was brushing my teeth this morning!) and there are scenes of violence.

Avarice Blacksteel Book 2 by Xonereth

Most of us long to "Be" but when the path gets too costly, or steep, we take solace in what we "Have." Remove the trappings of what we own and then what is the sum of us? They were the survivors, abandoned by the allies who swore to protect, in the ultimate gesture of greed and betrayal. Their world plunged into annihilation and chaos. With the passage of years in this blighted landscape order was established anew. Those who had been anonymous before the war found their will to rule, those who had experienced the comforts and ease of western life, thrust into darkness and despair. This brutal conflict had awoken those long sleeping, those who had ceased to care, those of immense power, the ones entrusted with the safe keeping of the often volatile mankind. Although their parallel world too was at risk, lethargy and arrogance ruled them. Against the backdrop of this savage landscape the saga of three such tribes of survivors unfold, and the unwitting chosen among them. One tribe sought to prosper via savagery, one by organized military might, and the other who ruled with no more than fairness and love. Three tribes thrown together, competing for the limited resources to survive, in a world teetering on the brink of total decimation. Driven by human avarice.

Forsaken: The Chosen Trilogy - Book One by RKSHobbs

Before you begin this story, I must warn you first. This is not a tale of dashing knights and lovely damsels awaiting rescue. It is not the tale of happy endings, with birdsong and rides into the sunset. It is a tale of light magic and dark, of dragons and monsters, of heroes and villains and the thin line between them. This is the tale of being broken, being made stronger, and then being broken again. This is a story of love of heartbreak so great if feels like your chest has been hollowed out and scraped clean, like you would never feel anything else ever again, and of love so powerful it can make even the gods tremble. This is not a happy story, but it is our story, and it is the only one I know how to tell. ********************** FORSAKEN is the first tale in the Saga of Darkness, following six brothers and sisters who have been named the Chosen of the Gods, destined to fight a great darkness that threatens their world. But evil wears many faces, and it will take the efforts of all- Kryssa, Brannyn, Lanya, Kylee, Alyxen, and Reyce- to survive the harrowing trials to come. ********************** FORSAKEN is a completed novel, being posted as a serial. Books Two through Five in the Saga of Darkness are also complete. Chapters posted every Monday and Friday.
