Demons and angels aren't real, some say, but others say that they are just spirits of the dead, that linger and watch the world go by. Others say that they're monsters controlled by nothing but burning desire. But I believe that angels are living dreams, spirits in the sky that watch from above, and demons are living nightmares, monsters that creep up from the abyss to claim their next victim. And if you search behind the smoke screen of lies you can find the truth. The truth about what happened all those years ago, but even those who think that this broken world is at peace know that nothing lasts forever, even the imortal eternity. But what is more fragile than peace? Hope, the very thing that holds this world together is hope. But in the heart of the storm lies power. Power reveals itself to those who deserve it, but those who possess only greed must wage a war to steal it.

The Burning Desire Within
~I felt it, the burning desire that lingered inside me. i couldn't control it, I felt my wings become tattered and change to black, I felt my red eyes darken, my hair becoming a deep reddish black. I felt my canine teeth extend, long black claws forced from my fingers where my nails used to be, a long slithering black tail had protruded from behind, the black horns that punched through the skin at the top sides of my forehead. I saw my entire skin was black. I wanted to control it, to force it back, to hide it, but I didn't want to. It had once again taken control of me, my body, my mind. Pushing my conscious to the furthest of my mind where it was clouded by the darkness that was currently exposed.~ An angel, named SIlver Ember, is shunned by all of angel society except by a select few. Born with the colors of crimson red eyes and hair with a bronze colored skin tone, is looked at as an abomination. She lives a somewhat normal life with the exception of a horrible nightmare that haunts her dreams since she was a child until she hears a strange voice inside her mind. A voice as deadly as the plague itself. While trying to figure out what's wrong with her she is suddenly pulled into spending time with Bracen, the prince of angels. She also meets a beautiful and charming merman, named Leomaris, that would make any female's heart skip a beat. She has no idea what's happening to her or what she's becoming until she has an interesting discussion with her mother. Is Silver a special angel or not even one at all? Just because she has wings means nothing. Silver has quite the battle while she struggles with love, being accepted, and control of herself.Complete
The Greylands: Modern Edition
A land of shadows, of mystery, of obfuscated Truth. Welcome to the Greylands, that strange world, within the bounds of Time, peopled by mortal men. We cannot see truly, only as through a glass, darkly. There are things that move and have their being completely beyond our ability to perceive them. There are things beyond our mortal ability to comprehend. There are hints and glimmers hidden within the body of revealed Truth, but there is much we do not know, cannot yet understand, and could never dare dream. These stories are mere fancy, with a seed of Truth at their core. They play with the ideas of mortality and Eternity, Time and things beyond it, and of course the epic battle of Good against Evil. Each stands alone, and though there are common themes, threads, names, and concepts, each story is an entity unto itself and should not be seen as occurring in the same world or mistaken for installments of a series. These are random musings, not Gospel Truth, and should not be taken as such. Joy, hope, and encouragement are hopefully a byproduct, but certainly not sound Theology. If you would know more of the true world beyond these Greylands, one must be a careful student of the Scriptures, not of silly stories such as these. While still fairytales, these stories are set in modern surroundings rather than the land of Faerie! Each story is unique unto itself, and doesn't reference any other story, world or character elsewhere.Complete

THE LEGACY: DAWN OF THE FALLEN ANGELS - editing
Long ago, a war shattered the heavens. Archangel Michael led the charge of light, while Azrael, the defiant, plunged countless angels into rebellion. Defeated, the traitors were cast down - but not all vanished into eternal fire. Some fell... here. They walk among us. They bleed like us. But their blood carries power - ancient, dangerous, divine. Whispers tell of their descendants: half-human, half-fallen. Marked by fate. Hunted by darkness. And bound to a prophecy that could ignite a war between Heaven and Earth. This is not a tale of saints and salvation. This is a story of shadows and seduction. Of mortals corrupted by divine blood. Of those who hunger for the throne of God Himself. The Legacy: Dawn of the Fallen Angels is a work of fiction. It is not based on biblical accounts, and all characters, events, and places are products of imagination. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental. In memory of my beloved friend, Khail Narisma - A gentle soul who walked among us with quiet strength and grace. Your name lives on in these pages, as a fallen angel who never truly fell. - Elizabeth Belarmino, writing as Bethany Bloom
