Damien Lennox, Camilla Krestman, Aun Monterio and Melis Van-Dyne are all children, living in a world where power is abused and negligence is prided. Each are seen as burdens; burdens to the perfect society their parents and ancestors have built - one where a vicious cycle of cruelty threatens to repeat for generations to come. 

Upon hearing of Avantis, a land deemed to be a child's paradise, their hearts cling to the hope that there is still the possibility of a brighter future, and they flee the kingdom of Moreli.

Their lives have never been easy, but are they prepared for the challenges to come?

No one ever knows the whole story... Nestled deep in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, something is emerging. Kept in absolute secrecy, it seeps into a fading town, quietly shared from person to person. For Alden Bensen, a directionless high school graduate, this discovery could mean an escape from his empty existence. To Rachel DuValle, perpetually underestimated and dismissed by the world, magic represents a chance to become something much greater than herself. In the face of an unsuspecting world, their decisions shape the growth of a budding society discovering untold power. This potent force offers anyone the power to change humanity forever - or send it cascading into swift and total annihilation. ----- The Last Science is an ongoing science-fiction / low-fantasy web novel series. New chapters will be posted on Fridays for as long as it takes to tell the whole story. For Wattpad only, chapters are split up by individual scenes-if you would prefer the whole chapters in single pieces, please visit my homepage or another site where I post this story, thanks!

These Lies Of Gold.

15 parts Ongoing

Many years after a disastrous experiment had wiped out most of the world, a selfish King reluctantly emerged from his fort- only to find that all besides his ruthlessly guarded kingdom had perished. All, that is, besides the mounds of gold and jewels that lay in glittering heaps upon the plagued land, spewed from the earth itself. Selfish as he was, he took it all for himself, casting those who opposed him out of his kingdom, left to perish from the remnants of chaos. *~*~*~* Aurelia Vasileìa, Princess to the throne of the City of Gold, grew up in the lap of luxury. Pampered beyond limit, every want fulfilled with barley a request, she knew no difficulty- at least, that is what was assumed. Between a mother that has no love for her, and a father who hides terrible secrets, she is often torn, but hides her scars carefully. Darius, eldest son and future leader of a group of exiles called The Outlanders, despises those shielded by The Gates. Those selfish, ignorant people who only look out for themselves. The need for vengeance burns in him, and he does something he's bound to regret. He kidnaps the Princess. Follow Aurelia and Darius's twisted tale of riches and lies, golden cages, and a Princess with enough rage to burn the kingdom to ash. Ps. If you do not understand sarcasm, don't read this book. ⚠️TW: Some concepts can be sensitive to certain readers. Warnings will be given appropriately. Your mental health matters. ;)
