Heart of the Forest, Blood of the Chief
In a world where war devours beauty and hatred rules the land, a golden-haired elf and a battle-scarred orc stand on opposite sides of a crumbling peace. Luner has always belonged to the forest-gentle, reclusive, and attuned to the whispers of the wild. She walks in harmony with fae and foxes, her heart untouched by the violence spreading beyond the trees. But when humankind ignites a brutal war against the magical races, even the sanctuary of the woods can no longer protect her. Leading the charge against the human tide is the Iron Fang-chieftain of the orcs, a warrior feared across continents. Hardened by loss and forged in the fires of countless battles, he knows only conquest... until fate places a quiet elf in his path. As blood is spilled and kingdoms fall, a bond begins to form between two enemies shaped by vastly different worlds. What begins in silence grows into something fierce-something forbidden. Love. Bound by destiny and torn by duty, Luner and the Iron Fang must choose between the war that divides them and the fragile hope that could unite their people. A sweeping tale of love in the shadow of war, Luner and the Iron Fang is a story of tenderness and strength, of two souls brave enough to change the world-together.

Ashes of Snow
"Words made me. They shifted over me from the moment I took breath; little black lines etched into my body as I wriggled and screamed. And learned their meanings. Duty. Honor. Fate."

And now, since the last 16 years, they have been fighting to win back the only place they can and will call home.

Of Fond Memories [Skyrim and WoW one shots] (Requests Closed)
[Various x Reader] "Skyrim and Warcraft, both are a world of strife and ripped apart by war. There is little to no room for true love... or is it?". These are one shot romance stories from these two games, I saw these stuff are pretty low count in my opinion so I decided to make one.Complete
