"Still the phoenix sits upon /
The world in fearsome form, /
With a crown upon her head /
And the beauty of a storm."
Newfound World, c. 1699: A phoenix nests on the roof of a house in a small colonial town, sending ripples throughout the community. Why is the phoenix here? Is she friend or foe? Heaven-sent or hell-bent? The town will grapple with the bird's presence in heated clashes of suppositions, superstitions and science.

A Fallen HomeKin
|| 2024 AMBY FANTASY FAVOURITE | ×5 FEATURED || When the ever-skittish, homesick, twelve-year old Fralith accidentally-on-purpose stops a kidnapping, no one knows what to think--especially Fralith. Newly stranded on a planet not his own through a misdirected HomeKin portal, where MetalEaters roar and people stand around staring at rectangles, Fralith struggles to puzzle out rules of the world before he gets eaten. But not all things in this new world are out to get him, and some are even trying to save him. When a flame--haired man begins to teach him the ways of the new world, Fralith starts to realize that there might be hope, healing, and home on this planet. A Fallen HomeKin is a heart-warming, hunger-inducing, adorable story about grief, home, and encountering an entirely alien world. ❗NOW A PUBLISHED BOOK❗ | | 2024 Ambys Fantasy Top Pick 20/1/2025 | | Featured on Fantasy, Middle Grade and Children's Fantasy 8/4/2023 | | Featured on StoriesUndiscovered, Tales of Adventure 5/2/2023 | | Featured on Fantasy, Magical Realism 24/6/2024 | | Featured on Fantasy, Fantasy Spotlight 25/3/2025 | | Featured on Wattpad Ambassadors, Speculative Fiction 30/5/2025 | #1 in the Maddy's awards | #1 in Fantasy in Gloria Regali | #2 in contemporary/teen in Lunar Paragons | And many more! ***This draft is exclusively published on W A T T P A D.

Awakening - The Last Science #1
No one ever knows the whole story... Nestled deep in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, something is emerging. Kept in absolute secrecy, it seeps into a fading town, quietly shared from person to person. For Alden Bensen, a directionless high school graduate, this discovery could mean an escape from his empty existence. To Rachel DuValle, perpetually underestimated and dismissed by the world, magic represents a chance to become something much greater than herself. In the face of an unsuspecting world, their decisions shape the growth of a budding society discovering untold power. This potent force offers anyone the power to change humanity forever - or send it cascading into swift and total annihilation. ----- The Last Science is an ongoing science-fiction / low-fantasy web novel series. New chapters will be posted on Fridays for as long as it takes to tell the whole story. For Wattpad only, chapters are split up by individual scenes-if you would prefer the whole chapters in single pieces, please visit my homepage or another site where I post this story, thanks!

Tic Toc!", he sang a bit too happily, "Time's up young lady. It's time to take things unto my hands. Let the fun begin." Seventeen year old Caroline was someone who people looked up to and envied of in every aspect, until one day. In the seventeen years of her life, she never once imagined that few weeks after her seventeenth birthday, things would go downhill. Everything went by good until before the day of ceremony, the day all the werewolves longed for, the day they discovered their other halves. Caroline was no exception either when it came to the longing for it, only it witnessed the very first of her misfortunes, paving way for many more that followed by. One such misfortune forces her to fight death. It doesn't get any better when a forgotten past comes haunting. It held too many secrets, secrets that were beyond imaginations. When the responsibility of unveiling them is imposed upon her, she accepts it with the intention of avenging her family in the process. Will she be able to revenge those who wronged her? Will she be able to stand up even after the secrets that were likely to knock her out?Completa
Trapped in my own head
She is an outcast. She finds it easier to express what she feels in the form of writing. Whether it is poems, letters or long texts. These are poems that she writes trying to describe how it feels to live with certain mental health issues, in a world that disregards outcasts. So, these are on the darker side of the spectrum. Some poems might be distressing for some readers. I personally enjoy consuming dark content, it's kinda like a coping mechanism. I really hope none of you relate with any of these :) I'll be posting only poems here, I'll try to be as active as I can. The poems are not in any order. They are just the thoughts that pop up any time of the day. (8.11.2023) PS: Please check out 'safe space'. I need your help to make it a real safe space, readers!

Motivational Poems
Regular updates every Saturday. Hey there my dear poem lovers! I am DrishKing008. I have been writing lots of poems for so much time. I just thought it was time I actually started publishing these. So, here I am. This is a collection of my original motivational poems that will motivate and inspire you. Most of these poems are fairly long. So, you have already been warned. I have put a lot of effort into these poems. I hope you enjoy them and get positivity from them. ⚠️⚠️⚠️ DON'T COPY MY WORK⚠️⚠️⚠️ This is all my original work and has my efforts in it. Don't even think about stealing it. I will take this plagiarism of my work really seriously. Don't steal my original work if you don't want to be in serious trouble. I really mean it!!! Okay, Enjoy!!! ------------ One of the poems, 'The First Snowfall' is an honorable mention in the 'Xmas Advent Contest 2022' ------------ This is my first poem collection. So, the starting poems are not as good. I have decided to leave them there as it shows me how much I have grown and prospered in this field. So, if you just wanna read the good poems, I recommend you start from poem 19 or a bit more late. Thanks! ------------- Highest Ranking ------------ #7 IN POETRY ~BEST RANKING YET #1 in longpoems #1 in motivationalpoems #1 in antidepression #2 in motivational #3 in roast #4 in songbookCompleta
