The Lighthouse's Reflection || HONORABLE MENTION
🏆ONC 2025 HONORABLE MENTION 🏆 A lone lighthouse keeper watches over the coast, tending to her light as the sea rages beyond. The storms are nothing new-neither is the solitude. She is content with the quiet rhythm of her life, the crash of waves against the cliffs, the scent of salt and parchment filling her days. But when a shipwreck leaves a battered stranger at her doorstep, the tide of her world begins to shift. The man is rough-edged, a relic of salt and shadow, with secrets hidden beneath his scars. He speaks of a past that the waves should have swallowed, of maps inked in the margins of forbidden books, of love letters lost to time. Trapped together by a storm that refuses to pass, they share stories by lantern light-one seeking refuge, the other searching for something long forgotten. Yet not all ghosts are content to stay buried, and not all storms end when the sky clears. Whispers of war linger in the distance, and the truth he carries may threaten the safe harbor she has built for herself. As the past and present begin to intertwine, she must decide-will she cling to the safety of her lighthouse, or will she risk everything to follow the reflection of something new? -- Cover by @Heuristic_Hashmath
Whispers of the Forgotten
Elena Varela has always felt like an outsider. Growing up in a quiet coastal town, she is drawn to the mysterious lighthouse that stands at the edge of the cliffs. Legend says it's been abandoned for decades, but every full moon, Elena swears she sees lights flickering within. One stormy night, following a strange, haunting melody, she is led to the lighthouse where she encounters a man-Sebastian-whose face she recognizes, but from where, she can't recall. Sebastian is not what he seems. He claims to be from another time, trapped in the lighthouse after an ancient curse was cast on him centuries ago. He tells Elena that she is the key to breaking his curse, but there's more to the story. A powerful entity, forgotten by history, has bound Sebastian to protect something precious hidden within the lighthouse-something that has the power to rewrite the past. As Elena and Sebastian grow closer, they uncover secrets about their intertwined fates. Elena discovers that her own lineage is tied to the origin of the curse, and she must decide whether to trust Sebastian, risking the fabric of time itself, or let him remain trapped for eternity. Together, they face dangerous forces, ancient magic, and a race against time to uncover the truth. Hi guys. Thank you for checking my story.

Ronan, the last of the Shadowborn kings, is sworn to protect his people from Eldoria's relentless crusade. He sees Elara as a pawn-a means to force the kingdom of light into peace. But the more time they spend together, the more he realizes she is not just a princess of the light-she is a woman with fire in her heart and a power she has yet to understand. As war looms and a prophecy stirs, Elara and Ronan must choose between the duty that binds them and the forbidden desire that could shatter kingdoms.

But when Cillian finally agrees to take her back to Ireland, and Moira sees the fierce waves and the seals that watch her from the rocks, the stories hidden from her suddenly begin to make sense.

Moira can end the issue - she's supposed to marry a selkie prince once she's eighteen, forever tying her people with the seals. Moira has only just discovered the life hidden from her, and going to live with the seals would mean giving up the life she's always wanted to live. She doesn't want to give herself up to the sea.

As an evil is looming, threatening to destroy the Earth, can these two outliers save the world with powers neither utterly understand? ~~~~~~~~~~~ Zora could only shiver as: his eyes darken looking at her, becoming more onyx black, and purple bruise-like shadows appear beneath his eyes. Bryce stands at 6'2" and has a thin and lanky but muscular body. Zora felt a tiny piercing pain trying to hit her over and over, but somehow it was blocked. "Where am I?" "Who are you?" Bryce asked sternly, glaring down at Zora. "It's her!" Piper said running onto the field. "That's the girl! She is the girl from my dreams! She is the one to bring Hell Fire!" ~~~~~~~~~~~ Updates every Wednesdays! Participating in: #theseasonalcontestConcluída
