The folk of the Badlands know Wraithshot as a hero; a spirit of protection and justice.
But Caleb Raith has never seen himself that way. He's just a banged up ex-outlaw with a lot of penance left to pay off. Trudging through the desert with poison running in his blood is just his debt coming due.
Lysistrata Starborn, Chosen of Battles, only knows Caleb as a Chosen of the Unconquered Sun; a good man. After pitting him against a demon Queen to save the Badlands, Lysistrata finds him half-dead of fever, and a lot of stories left untold...

Savages and Purists: CHRONICLES OF THE DEMIZE CLOCK
Some girls run from their demons. Frankie trains with hers. In a world where purity is weaponized and allegiance is everything, Frankie Oliveira returns to the one place she swore never to set foot in again-Fleur Panache. Branded a fallen purist with a broken demize clock and a past buried in flames, she must now survive brutal retraining, political land wars, and the spiritual elite's suspicions. But as the boundary between the living and the possessed begins to blur, so does the line between truth and manipulation. Allies are scarce. Her enemies know her better than she knows herself. And then there's Xanthe Linea Morais, part heir, part executioner, whose interest in her may be a game of power... or something far more dangerous. Haunted by her choices and hunted from both sides, Frankie faces an impossible question: Can the girl who was born to uphold the sacred survive becoming the symbol of its unraveling? One wrong move, and purity won't just be lost, it'll be redefined.Complete![AMIRO: KEEPER OF THE SIXTH CITADEL [ON GOING]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/342076954-256-k535735.jpg)
AMIRO: KEEPER OF THE SIXTH CITADEL [ON GOING]
[HERO CHRONICLES BOOK 01] Sylphiana was once a peaceful land-but without warning, darkness began to spread, slowly poisoning the world. The six sacred emblems that keep everything in balance are starting to break. If they shatter completely, Sylphiana itself will fall. To prevent this, six heroes called the Chrono-Warriors were chosen and given incredible powers. Meanwhile, a normal student named Arkane finds a strange, glowing book. Before he can react, his soul is pulled from his world and placed into a body he doesn't recognize. And just like that, he awakens as Prince Amiro Santellus Xiellián El'Deorcus, a demi-human Prince. Thrown into a world he doesn't know, Arkane must learn to control strange new powers, gain the trust of people who see him as a prince, and face a hidden enemy determined to destroy everything. As one of the Keepers of the Citadel, he holds the fate of the world in his hands-and time is running out. Every choice he makes could either save or doom Sylphiana, and the line between friend and enemy grows thinner with every heartbeat. Could they truly carry out their duties with full responsibility? Or would they end up like the warriors of the past-failing to fulfill their purpose once again? BOOKCOVER: Yrra Bookcover
Didn't Really Matter Anyway
That's right, these are just.. my memories. They're flashing before my eyes, but why? Am I dying? No, I can't die yet, there's so much I have to do. And really... I really don't want to relive through these memories. My past... This worthless past. This worthless... "And that fleeting hope where I started to believe that I could fix my life grew so big, I couldn't control it. At that moment, I knew I had to make it back to finish my self-imposed duties." "But in the end, they were nothing but words. I couldn't manage a single thing on my own. At the end of the day, right before my eyes, I'm reminded that I shouldn't have been the one to survive-Not at all." All of my attempts, everything I've been through, and all I had to suffer for, it was all just a pathetic, comical, uninteresting story. [Also on Quotev under GabrielXander]Complete
Spellbond & Bloodbound
"I should run. I always do. And I'm good at it. But this time... something feels different. Maybe it's the place. Or maybe it's a certain someone who makes me want to stay. Even though he's made it painfully clear that I'm not welcome here, a part of me feels connected-like I belong. I should stop overthinking. Just this once... maybe I should let my heart decide."Complete

GODMOD
You die in an alley and wake in Yuriath with a voice in your head that catalogs the world. With GodMod you can mold reality with your hands... but every creation demands a price, and some choices ignite wars that don't belong to humans. Power, consent, fate: what are you willing to shape? Roxas is reborn in a living, hostile land, guided by a Console that logs everything: wounds, legends, limits. His unique skill, GodMod, lets him bend matter and symbols, but every use eats at flesh and conscience. Among remembering forests, corrupt cities, and a mask that rules the Pit, he meets Zaltrak'xia, an Huïn born for the canopy, and learns that saving someone can be an ambiguous act. In the woods of OmniArborea, where trees remember your breath, Roxas learns that every creation is a confession, every weapon an ethical choice. He meets Zaltrak'xia, a Huïn marked by chains and flight, and understands that "saving" is never neutral. Further south, through smoke and wagers, the Pit and Lady Banco pull the threads of something that smell like revolution, marked with blood. GODMOD is dark, mythic fantasy with diegetic interfaces: no flashing HUD bars-only a mind archiving what it fears to forget. Quick mini-chapters, rotating voices, visceral action, "living" worldbuilding, and questions about power, consent, responsibility. If reality can be shaped, who decides when to stop?
Fate's Exchange (Twisted Fate, Book 1)
Death wants her. Fate has already claimed her. Angels protect her. When Atropos's blade cuts a life she should not have taken, the Sisters of Fate move heaven and Void to buy time. Death always makes its quota, and Alyssa is on its list. When Alyssa Frank dies trying to save herself from a brutal attack, she finds that second chances do exist. Now, reliving the final week leading to her death, she must discover the right choices in a sea of wrong. Angels walk the halls of her school in human skins, a Brother too close to mortal warmth watches over her, and a teacher with hidden faces threatens the town's safety. When the Sisters insist fate must be honored and the Brothers bend rules to protect her, Alyssa must choose whom to trust-and how much of herself she's willing to lose to win. With new love brewing and friendships on the line, what happens when chances run out? Fate's Exchange is the first twist in Alyssa's journey, a raw story of choices, stolen moments, and a cosmic bargain that teaches Alyssa the cost of saving others. Triggers: Violence, sexuality (discussed, not portrayed), death, student-teacher authority
The Last Phoenix (book 1)
Ren is a quiet teen in a small New Zealand town. He just wants to finish school, avoid the local bullies and maybe tell his best friend how he feels. But one blistering summer day he bursts into flames and emerges as the Sun God's champion: a radiant, female warrior. For generations, the Phoenix's power has passed through the women of his family, so his grandmother is as shocked as he is when it chooses a boy. As Ren struggles to control fire, wings and teleportation, strange phenomena - frozen lakes in summer, earthquakes that seem to think - signal that the world is unraveling. Ancient enemies known as the Shadows of the Eclipse feed on chaos and are awakening. Torn between hiding in his hoodie and facing a destiny he never wanted, Ren must decide who he is, what he will fight for and whether to trust the boy who's always been by his side. This isn't a fairytale. It's messy, queer, and sometimes heartbreaking. But if you're into mythic fantasy with real feelings, and a protagonist who literally sets himself on fire to save the world, jump in. The world's last Phoenix is a boy, and he's just getting started.Complete![Healer's Touch (Deadly Touch #1) [Complete]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/1819758-256-k170335.jpg)
Healer's Touch (Deadly Touch #1) [Complete]
[COMPLETE, 100,000+] The Young Riders meets The Vampire Diaries in this tale of brother vs brother and blood magic in a secondary fantasy world. Llew has a gift. Her body heals itself from any injury-but at a cost to anyone nearby. In a small country ignorant of magic, freeing oneself from the hangman's noose isn't a good look. After dying and coming back thrice, Llew drops from the gallows into the hands of Jonas: the man carrying the knife with the power to kill her-permanently. The last of his warrior race, Jonas is surrounded by the ghosts of his loved ones. At his side, the cursed knife that took their lives. Jonas has learned the hard way that caring for others means their death. Jealousy of his half-brother's celebrated strength and speed drove Braph to create the device that gives him the power to perform magic, any magic. But it needs fuel-the blood of a healer... Healer's Touch is a fantasy novel flavored with a wild west setting, steampunk-like technology, enough romance to draw you in, horror to keep you hooked, and just enough sex to keep things spicy. "There isn't a dull moment in the story, with the action starting from the first page." -- Jo Toon, SFFANZ:http://www.sffanz.org.nz/reviews/reviewdocs/healers_touch.shtml Originally published in 2013 by Kristell Ink, now being self-published by the Author (as of 2021)Complete
