Het is een kort verhaal wat over een schotse mythe / legende gaat.
Merwith woont samen met haar moeder in Schotland vlak bij het meer van Loch Awe. Er gaat een verhaal rond over de kelpie , het waterpaard dat mensen uitnodigt op zijn rug te klimmen en een rit te maken. Maar langzaam gaat hij steeds meer naar het water toe , en kan je er niet meer af.
Je gaat een trage en pijnlijke dood te gemoed. Je lichaam is een met die van hem geworden en zit vast.
Merwith gelooft niet de verhaal die haar moeder verteld, maar wat als het de waarheid blijkt te zijn ?

**Coming to KU in January 2026** Sometimes fate brings you exactly what you need before you even realize it. *** Brigid Kelly has lost everything and no amount of spells or wishes stopped it. After her Gran fell ill and passed away, Brigid wasn't able to keep her grandmother's metaphysical shop going. With everything crashing down around her, Brigid buys a one-way ticket to the land of her ancestors, hoping to find solace in the old cabin where her Gran grew up. Ireland is everything she was always told it was and then some. As she sorts out the slowly declining house in the woods, she's thrust into the path of handsome Torin Boyle by circumstance. The walls she's built up around her heart are slowly chipped away as Torin reveals pieces of himself as well, opening not only his home but his heart too. Torin Boyle has spent the last thirty-odd years living in the North of Ireland, running through the rolling hills with his friends. As a pack of wolf Shifters in a country that has no natural wolves, Torin has learned to keep a tap on his inner emotions to protect those he loves. But his homeland is dying; small patches of forest turning brown and dry. When a witch appears on his family's land out of nowhere, he's concerned that the witch is to cause for what's been happening to the land. He never expected to feel pulled into her orbit so completely. Brigid's idyllic life comes to a halt when Torin's father falls ill, closely followed by other members of the Shifter's family. The land around them - the very land where Brigid's ancestors lived - is dying. If Brigid and Torin can't figure out how to fix it, she might not be the only one losing those she loves. **Trigger Warnings - mentions of hospitals and death/cancer; loosing loved ones**Complete

Unicorns. Ah, yes such beautiful creatures indeed. Mystical creatures that dwell unseen in the depths of forests, unheard from for centuries. All in plain sight yet undiscovered as the human eye can not see them. Some time ago these unicorns where driven away and captured by an ancient fire elemental fae called the Red Bull. Yet he missed one tiny and naive unicorn that hid herself in the forests deep. Her name was [Y/n]. It was not long until she found out about her fellow unicorn's capturer. As she hid far away from the fae. She was in hiding. Suddenly one day that unicorn got hit by a black carriage led by ebony horses.

"What do you believe in, Midoriya?" He asked simply. "What?" The man sighed, "Call me superstitious, but I believe in things that most men don't. Those beliefs are ingrained in me, they dictate my actions and they've saved my life. My gut tells me man should never have entered this place, so I listen." He looked serious and yet unbothered all at once as he turned his face towards the sky, taking his cigarette to tap the ash off into the sea. "If you believe in anything at all, I'd get back on this damn boat kid." Izuku was many things; Reckless? Certainly. A Coward? Never. **WARNINGS: Referenced sexual and physical assault, torture, blood, gore, violence. PLEASE read with these in mind.** P.s.

The Five Stages of Transition: From deception to liberty
The miracle is present, next to and within you. The miracle is you. When you write poetry you hide in a bottle a message written on paper. Then you ship it in the ocean and you let it travel across the world. One day, somebody may graciously find it below a steep rock on the beach and be curious enough to open it. Then he will read the message enclosed. For poetry time is irrelevant and to be specific this poetry has defied time and difficulties. The first chapter 'Crash the Idols' is a sociological approach in the poetry of the dogma, VERITAS (Latin meaning of truth), and images that society encourages people to believe. Are these true, do they have any meaning at all? Or they are just hallucinations of the society of consumption? The second chapter 'The transformations of Vishnu' is a reference to the changes of Vishnu into different forms and existences according to Indian scripts. We are subject to a continuous and ruthless change, since the time we were born. This change is considered a determining factor of survivorship. The 'Myth story of an adventurer' is wandering in the ascetic communities of Mount Athos with a history of more than 1000 years. The incessant seeking of light and freedom is a driving force of interpreting modern life with a more charismatic byzantine approach, in regards to philosophy and theology. 'Dialogues of Despair' is a modern song of songs, where contradictory powers clash and the winner is thirst. Thirst for life and Thirst for Knowledge. Thirst of Love and Thirst for Sacrifice. 'The Silent Time of mysticism' is about the inexplicable echo of our memories, our faith, our emotions, and death right in the corner. The understanding of our Being is an understanding of the Collective Being and contribution to that.Complete
Heroes
In the world of Leben, villages are scattered across. The scorching blue star that lights the lands and brings day can burn you if you're out for too long. But the people have adapted to the heat. In most villages, there are such things called Protectors, which each village has from one to two of them, depending on the size. But what an old prophecy stated, was that the world would come to an end. Two boys were gifted unspeakable power at young ages, and when they learned of each other, they swore to protect the world, until one allowed the power to take the best of him. He lost in battle between his best friend and went out into hiding to work on his mischievous plans. As for the other boy, after defeating his best friend, his power turned him mad. The Mad Man was who he was known as, and he became a legend to all, only seeked by those in search of wise words. Now, these adolescent boys, meet. It was by coincidence, not by fate itself. The kids knew each other in another time. All they seeked was for new lives to live, for their old lives bored them, or were destroyed. They had no idea what awaits in store as they venture through all the lands of Leben, but once they reach the future, they'll learn of truths hidden by not only man, but the gods who man fear. * * * NOTE: Pictures do not belong to me, give credit to the original owners.

Night Rider
Night Rider - A httyd and Hiccstrid book. -Astrid's pov- 8 years. That's how long it has been. 8 lonely, cold, devastating years of my life that I will never get back. Every night I dream the same dream - every night the same day returns to haunt me over and over. That day dramatically changed my life for the worst. Why did that day happen? Everyone learnt to leave me in peace in the morning. Everyone knew my deepest, darkest secret that changed people's opinions of me forever. Everyone knew my arch enemy, but only 2 people know why he is my arch enemy. My friends still talk to me, just not in the same way as they used to - it's almost as if they are scared of me, or don't want to be associated with me. One day I want this to change. One day I want my life to turn around. One day I will truely be me again. One day I will be happy. One day I will be free. I cannot see that day in the forseeable future, but I know it will come, and I know somehow it is connected to my enemy. *I know that it is an over-used story line but I tried to spice it up a little. Kinda like how you may always eat a Chicken Masala and then you try a Vindaloo - they're both food and both curries but one is different from the other* There are extra chapters at the end containing side-stories of this book. It will make more sense when you read the chapter titled: 'The little boat' near the end of the book, but the actual story is 60 chapters long.Complete
