The Three Kings found their ancient mystical weapons and defeated the Lord of Shadows.

For four friends, the effects of the victory force them to become fugitives, hunted by the very people they once fought beside. To protect one of their own, they take the opportunity of being on the run to take the road less travelled and to fulfil a dying enemy's final wish.

But the hunters are never far behind.

THE ROSE BOOK // A NOVEL by mallycat504

In a world divided into three races since ancient times, there have been three kingdoms. The first kingdom is the kingdom of the gods and sits in the heavens ruling above the other two. The second is called Amaryllis and filled with the prosperous, but greedy Lekki, a humanoid race that relies much on machinery and the gods above to protect them, since their own bodies are weak. The final kingdom, called only the Wild Woods, is filled with dark and murderous creatures known as the Mutare. Honey, a Lekki girl, lives on the border between these three words, and often time finds herself staring into the depths of the Wild Woods. Her whole life she'd been taught that the woods was a dark and dangerous place, where only the night beasts could survive. But, with one simple deal to save her brother's life, Honey finds herself in the depths of these very woods with two very strange boys, searching for something they call the Rose Book.

Progeny - Book IV by azimodo

*Weekly updates* "There are no leashes now, no bindings," she says, her voice a dark lullaby in the flickering candlelight, "and it is their sacrifice that gave us this. Nothing can ever repay it. No one can ever take it from us. So now, in this hall, amongst our music, our food, and our merriment, I say to you this: All hail the glorious dead." Foes rise up on either side of the Paragon as it all comes to an end. - This is the final book in the Paragon series. It is my very, very, very strong recommendation you read the preceding three books first. You can read book 1, Paragon, here: https://www.wattpad.com/story/95374969-paragon WIP Cover art and written work by Azi. Please note: violence, sexual themes, and coarse language will appear in Progeny.
