The legends say there are two invincible ships: the elusive White Phantom, and the deadly Black Reaper. No storm, cannon, or magical attack can even attempt to damage their hulls, much less even think about sinking the vessels. Cannonballs bounce off if their hulls, and monstrous waves miles tall cannot overwhelm them. Large rocks break at their mere touch. 

Travis is a shipbuilder's son who wants to become a craftsman and carve wooden figures to sell all over the world. However, his father sends him off on a fishing vessel to become a sailor. 

When his ship sinks, Travis finds himself aboard a beautiful white ship with a silver sea serpent figurehead named Paragon. He soon learns the ship harbors a secret, the ship is alive. Paragon needs a captain to negotiate trades, and offers Travis the position. 

Will he accept?
What other secrets are lurking out of the open ocean?

This story occurs after my other story, "A Dragon's Ruin," but is not a sequel. You do not have to read anything else to be able to enjoy this! 

Updates on Saturday mornings whenever I can.

In the depths of the Caspian Sea, a mystical town called Seabum is home to a young black mermaid named Shell Swarthy. Her ancestors were enslaved Africans who miraculously survived the transatlantic slave trade by being thrown overboard, only to find refuge beneath the ocean's dark blue waters. As a devout follower of Poseidon, the King of the Seas, Shell's community prepares for the royal coral wedding, a grand celebration that will take place in two sea surfs. Shell, a tenth-generation Mermaid, serves as an under Chef in the castle of Prince Persia Melas, a member of the royal family. Her life is one of duty and service, bound to the Melas household. The night of Prince Persia's engagement party is a momentous occasion, attracting dignitaries and aristocrats from the seven salty seas.

Venture to Uncertainty (#1) by tarishannon18

It's a deadly plan, and it goes like this: First, become a crew member of the Avourienne, a pirate ship notorious for its charismatic captain and wicked ways. Second, trick the ship's cunning strategist, famous for winning every game she's ever played, into believing a delicately spun lie. Third, get close enough to their tyrant king to put a knife through him. Deadly doesn't quite describe such a plan. In fact, inconceivable may be the better word. But Archer Kingsley has a knack for such things, and he feels he's going to pull off this plan with the ease he does most everything. Perhaps he's not quite aware of the absolute hell that's about to break loose, but truthfully, it's so much better that way. Because true adventures are born from uncertainty. * Cover by xxsoteria Mature themes you may encounter in this book: - harsh language (it's a pirate book) - violence (it's a pirate book) - sexual implications (it's a PIRATE book) However, this story does not violate any of Wattpad's mature guidelines and therefore is not marked as such.

It's a wonderful day in Jamanakai city. Kai's plans for the day are to deliver a sword, get the loaded payment, buy necessities and potatoes to bake, go home, and take a rest. The last two have scratched off however, and it's all courtesy to this guy he comes across too; he's really tall, busting with muscles, owns a pretty pair of big eyes with green irises, and wears a damn charming smile. Everything goes upside down after that. Suddenly, before the gods could spare a blink, Kai is aboard a pirate ship with people he least expected to be with. Kai makes terrible plans, but this trip has got to be the worst yet as he literally fights for his life against one or two fellow mythical creatures. He's also fighting for his troubling heart, as the same guy who ruined his life never fails to skyrocket his heart rate through the sky, and churn his stomach like a towel being twisted into a rope. The first day they met was already stressful, let alone the following ones. But hey, if you were to tell Kai a few days before what he'll do in the end, he wouldn't even believe you - in fact, he might as well set you on fire. !weekly updates! !Crossposted on ao3! #111 on ninjago #59 on ninjagofanfiction #33 on legoninjago #10 on ninjagocole #10 on colebrookstone #1 on ninjagokai
