5 Years after the decisive Battle of Cartenau, which saw the destructive arrival of the Seventh Umbral Calamity, the world has finally began to rebuild. Life flourishes once more, yet evil once again rears its head. For one young Au Ra, the mantle of Warrior of Light was one filled with honour and pride, until circumstances left her feeling far more useless than ever before. Can she protect those closest to her, or must she make sacrifices for her world?
This story is based on my own journey through this wonderful game, a journey that is still ongoing. I hope to give you all an insight into what made me fall in love with this beautiful world. Hope you enjoy!

Moonlight Kept in Silence: Book One - A Realm Reborn (Finished)
"Not every love begins with a confession - some begin with a glance, and a vow to wait." Before the bond, before the trust, before the words that could not be taken back-there was only a shy healer with violet-touched hair, and the Elezen whose voice could still the world around her. From the first moment Miyako stepped into the Waking Sands, she knew there was something about Urianger Augurelt that would linger in her thoughts. But love at first sight was a dangerous thing, and she would not let herself act on it. Not yet. Through quiet glances, unspoken observations, and moments shared in silence, Miyako learns more about him... and about herself. But when tragedy strikes and Moenbryda's sacrifice shakes the Scions to their core, Miyako makes a vow-to carry a legacy, to watch over him, and to keep her feelings locked away until she's certain of the truth. In the halls of the Waking Sands and on the battlefields beyond, their paths weave together in ways neither can fully predict. And though her heart stirs, Miyako keeps her moonlight in silence... for now.Complete![Hall of Games [ REWRITE ] | The Varya Chronicles #1](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/105166494-256-k423036.jpg)

MISTBORN x GAME OF THRONES *Wattpad YA profile Featured story* If Cadence had said no to a blood spirit, the noble family she worked for would still be alive. Her brother wouldn't be conscripted into the Hall of Games. She wouldn't have to follow him and be a soldier for the rest of her life. Her Papa would still have his head. A close brush with death awakens her necromancy abilities, and she becomes hell-bent on resurrecting her father. However, necromancy is forbidden, and if her secret is exposed, the Hall of Games will execute her.

In the war-ravaged territory of Cadence, Olivia has spent her life hidden in the shadows-she's the secret her homeland cannot afford to lose. But no one has ever told her why. Years after the war's end, Vorrath, their relentless enemy, still casts a menacing shadow over Cadence. But the weight of isolation, the desperation for answer's and the sacrifice of others grow too heavy to bear, forcing Olivia to take a daring risk. Disguised as one of them, she infiltrates Vorrath, enrolling in their elite academy deep within enemy territory. Amid Vorrath's walls, Olivia searches for answers and uncovers truths about the war-secrets that not only threaten her survival but shatter everything she thought she knew about her homeland and herself. Her path collides with Tristan Hudson, a handsome yet dangerous academy trainer who happens to be the son of Vorrath's ruthless president.

As she navigates life at the academy, it becomes evident there's something very different about her, something she won't be able to hide for long. Loyalties fracture, forbidden emotions ignite, and Olivia realizes she is more than just a hidden secret-she is the key to everything. All she wanted was freedom-but now, she'll have to fight to survive in a world where betrayal and revelation could cost her everything. *** I waited until it was COMPLETE and published the whole book for you. :) ENJOY!!!! #romantasy #fantasy #romance #youngadult #newadult #slowburn #enemiestolovers #magicComplete
Lightbearer - Ember's Dawn
Aurevia stands on the brink of oblivion. The Celestial Engine shattered, scattering Lantern Sparks-fragments of living magic that once bound light, shadow, and memory in perfect harmony. From its cataclysm rose Nihloth, the Devourer of Woe, a hunger incarnate that feasts on fear and despair. Across fractured continents, four souls are drawn by a silent summons. One will become the Sun Eater, forging fury into a blazing shield against darkness. Another will awaken as the Light-bender, bending truth into a weapon of redemption. A third will rise as the Stonebreaker, shattering grief with unbreakable resolve. And the last will claim the mantle of the Shadow Weaver, bending illusion into unexpected hope. Their destinies converge at the legendary Axion Gate, the world's magnetized heart where Lüminet currents still pulse. To stand against Nihloth's creeping dread, they must bind flame, light, stone, and shadow into a single, unbreakable beacon. Enter a realm of floating isles and crystal forests, ancient orders and twisted cults, where every flicker of hope can ignite a dawn-or herald the end of all things. This is the story of shadow and light. A tale of darkness growing and encompassing the world and the heroes who would bear the title "light bearer".
