TEACHER and HUNTER
Terjal Rakmir, Headmaster of Cloudreach, is content to spend his days schooling pupils in the Conjurer’s art. However, when a direspawn (a creature brought over from another plane) wreaks havoc, gruesome death and destruction upon the lands, Terjal is immediately pressed into service by Cloudreach’s patron, Lord Vaukmond, Duke of Windemere and Protector of the Realm of Ryndorhn. Lord Vaukmond, the Warrior Duke, distrusts magic yet has no conventional means of destroying the direspawn.
With his former pupil, Aiya Lindsmund (now Adjutant to Lord Vaukmond), and his three Blades, Terjal sets out on a journey which begins at Quitonne, Ryndorhn's center of power and corruption, to a climactic battle in a deadly swamp guarded by creatures of nightmare.
At Quitonne, they find allies and adversaries. Ally: a disgraced aquamancer who restores his honor by healing the wounded. Adversary: an enigmatic necromancer whose name inspires fear and who controls a legion of undead servants.
At the end of their sojourn, Terjal and Aiya will uncover more than just the identity of the direspawn’s creator. Before the quest is ended, Terjal and Aiya will face forces greater than they could ever have imagined: forces fueled by a bitter, exiled sorcerer and his vengeful protégé.

Harry Potter and the Dragon Within
When Harry Potter's name emerged from the Goblet of Fire, the world turned against him. His friends abandoned him, his classmates mocked him, and even the staff stood by as he was bullied and cast out. Gryffindor, the house he had once called home, went so far as to hurt him and finally banish him. His own Head of House did nothing. Limping and broken, Harry retreated to the Chamber of Secrets, where he wept for the betrayal and cruelty he had endured. But in the depths of despair, something inside him snapped. The emotions he had buried for years-sorrow, anger, and betrayal-erupted. A dim core within him cracked, spilling out light that grew brighter and hotter until it consumed him. The burning power overwhelmed his body, and he collapsed. When he awoke, the Chamber was gone. He stood instead on a cosmic plain, strange and otherworldly. And there, descending from the heavens, was a massive snow-white dragon wreathed in golden light. The dragon had been waiting for him. It would guide Harry in mastering his awakened gift-one that would change the Wizarding World forever.

HP: Dragonborn comes [English version]
After shouldering the fate of Skyrim during his adolescence, defeating dragons, gods, and demons, the most powerful Dragonborn now faces an even greater threat. His soul, woven with those of hundreds of dragons, has become a coveted prize for divine and dark entities alike. In an unexpected twist, Akatosh, the dragon god of time, intervenes, sending the young hero-barely 17 years old-to a completely different world: Hogwarts. But the magic of this universe is unprepared for the primal and ancient force of the Thu'um, nor for a battle-hardened warrior with a past forged in the icy fields of the north. Constantly clashing with Albus Dumbledore, a manipulative figure with his own interests, the Dragonborn is forced to accept the role of a professor at Hogwarts-a strategy to keep him under close watch. However, his firm character, dark past, and immense power soon disrupt the comfort of the magical world. With hidden enemies, whispering souls within, and an unbreakable connection to Skyrim, will this northern warrior find purpose in a world he doesn't understand? Or will his arrival at Hogwarts unleash chaos that even magic cannot contain? --- Disclaimer: This is a fan fiction work created as a tribute to the sagas of The Elder Scrolls and Harry Potter.
