"Why don't you say what's on your mind?"
Daniel returned the gaze with sad eyes,
"Opening up creates expectations, my friend. Better to have a silent tongue than to disappoint."

People say a person can't be changed, that their path should be left to faith. But when the isolated town of Derringvale suddenly wakes one day to a miracle tower in their midst, everything starts to change.
Who kidnapped the poor girl from across the street? And why was a friend found in a pool of blood?
The filtering mask is slowly falling off every face, and people are talking. The church is raging and the overflowing of secrets becomes deafening.
Daniel is determined to fix it, but he is changing too. You thought you knew someone.
How much faith do you have?All Rights Reserved

The Duns by magicmonster1000

READY TO READ <3 "...It was as if a spirit had taken control of my body. I was lifted into the air, my arms widespread, my head automatically tilted back. There was a bright, eye-blinding light surrounding me. I could hear the voice now. It said my name. And then, it stopped. Oh no. No, no, no! It was true. It is true. And the voice, as if it had been reading my mind, announced to the impatient audience: "Peter O'Connor. Exceptional fighting skills; Sharp hearing; No need to breathe; Element: Fire." On turning seventeen, Peter O'Connor, forced by his step-father, swears his loyalty to Oi Alloi, a secret society for men with powers and in the span of a single second is forced to admit that there lays a sleeping dragon hidden behind this already shocking community- a dragon who's silent slumber has lasted a year too long. To add on to it, an old enmity suddenly surfaces, a girl supposedly filled with love turns out to be filled with secrets, and of course, there's the loyal friend, who's not so loyal anymore. Cursed or not, these powers can either break him, or make him- save him, or destroy him- and the choice is only his to make... Best Ranking: #4 in Secret Societies

Echoes of The Forgotten by _farasha_

In a quiet coastal town, a mysterious journal is found, tucked between the pages of a random book. It belongs to an explorer who vanished a century ago while searching for a mythical island believed to grant immortality. The journal, filled with cryptic symbols and half-finished maps, falls into the hands of Seraphina, a curious librarian who has always felt drawn to the ocean but never understood why. As Seraphina decodes the journal, she uncovers long-buried secrets about her town and her own lineage. She discovers that her ancestors were part of the last expedition to the island, but none of them ever returned. Driven by a desire to uncover the truth and finally understand the connection, she assembles a small group of misfits, including a curious cartographer, a daring treasure hunter, and a historian who knows to pay attention to detail. Together, they embark on a life-threatening journey across treacherous waters, facing mystical sea creatures, ancient traps, and a rival crew chasing the same prize. Along the way, they confront the possibility that the island's immortality might come at a terrible cost. The deeper they go, the more Seraphina realizes that some mysteries are better left buried.
