Destiny, something Lotus always believed in, but constantly lost faith over. Time and again Lotus felt as if she didn't belong, or that her decisions were all wrong. But after the War of Fire had finally come to an end, she began to feel better about what her life had to unfold -- especially after her crew was given a golden opportunity to travel across the oceans.
Seemingly, however, this newfound fate had different plans as Lotus is struck with disaster and a sequel of catastrophic mishaps and is forced to make a decision:
Does she stick to what little faith remains and follow what life has planned? Or does she carve her own future, and make her destiny her own?

Chronologically, this is the first setting of my Wings of Fire AU I have planned! If this meets any form of success, I have so much more to introduce about this alternative world!
Wings of Fire belongs to Tui T. Sutherland. This story is merely an AU - an alternate story line featuring my own, original characters, and their tales. Enjoy! :)

As Noor and the princes investigate their uncle and cousin's possible treason, she grows closer to the crown prince, but in order to save the kingdom and the person she loves, Noor will have to risk everything...
A romantic adventure set in an imagined Arabic kingdom, THE DANCING GIRL is a story of court intrigues, romantic entanglements, and secret meetings as Noor and her best friend Amir try to help the princes they're falling for expose corrupt court officials with plans to seize the throne.
