Rykka (Beastborne: Book 1) by selfdeficient

Lithias was starkly different than the rest of the world. Marked by her ancestors with what she would argue was a curse, her fate was sealed from the moment she opened her amethyst eyes to the world. By thirteen she found herself alone in the world, her family destroyed by the same people who were trying to prevent her from coming into existence. Her existence had fortunately remained a closely guarded secret until one day when her world crashed down around her. Forced to abandon her secluded mountain home, Lithias is running for her life without a destination or anyone to guide her. Her abilities are becoming increasingly difficult to contain, and her enemies are getting closer and closer. Her fate is beginning to reveal itself before her eyes and the horror that comes hand in hand in is enough to put all of humanity on the edges of their seats.

Xylandria Chronicles: The Journey Beginns by shadow_nano

In a world where magic is hunted, a journey of innocence begins. Nestled high in the snowy peaks, a young being of shadow grows, blissfully unaware of the peril that magic invites. Guided by a kind protector, life feels simple, safe-even happy. But the world beyond the mountains is far from kind, and whispers of hostility creep closer each day. Drawn into a vibrant land filled with playful spirits, glowing forests, and secrets of old, the young wanderer discovers a truth that will change everything: the world fears what it doesn't understand. Innocence will be tested. Bonds will be forged-and broken. And in the quiet shadows of this enchanting realm, a single spark may ignite a storm. The journey begins. Will it lead to hope-or despair?

Touch Me ✔ by CaitSarai

[Completed] ''I was born in flames and chaos. In one moment, I didn't exist at all. In another, air was tearing through the flesh of my lungs.'' Deep in an unknown forest, a young woman woke up alone and confused. She had no knowledge of her past, what she was, or who she was. Why was she in this world at all? Fate drove her into the hands of a family of vampires, all of whom brought relief in the slightest touch of her skin. But their touch was more than addicting. With each stroke, mysterious etches appeared on her flesh, divulging information thought to be lost to the world; information of magic, power, and a viciously murdered coven of witches. With no past and an uncertain future, she must find out her purpose in this life before the supernatural world takes her for all she has to give. Even more so, she must attempt to understand a craving she has for the dangerous vampire family she's found herself enslaved to; a craving to be touched.

First People: La 'lor Ae by Anastasiapdx

Have you ever wondered what came before us? There are some that feel a connection to nature on a primal level, an innate bond with the earth itself, animals, and even plants. They have called themselves many things over the centuries: Seers, Druids, Witch Doctors, Healers and so on. They, who seem to feel the heartbeat in the forest and hear the songs that mountains quietly sing. On a planet full of beings who often seem like a plague, there are a select few who are connected to the network of life that flows through us all. Perhaps they cannot stomach the politics and power imbalance over the basic needs of our people and our lands because they are descended from those known as The First People.

Whispers of the Highlands: Appalachian Folklore and Superstitions by kevin21852

The Appalachian region, rich in both natural beauty and cultural heritage, serves as a tapestry woven from diverse threads of history, folklore, and tradition. The landscape itself shapes the stories told within its valleys and peaks. From the rolling hills to the dense forests, the geography has not only influenced settlement patterns but also the development of unique cultural practices. The isolation offered by the mountains allowed communities to flourish independently, preserving their distinct traditions, stories, and superstitions that have been passed down through generations.
