Known as the best huntress in Farnloss, 20-year-old Raya does her best to provide for the people within her village. However, this becomes a near-impossible task with the terrible drought that has consistently plagued them for the last few seasons. No water means no food, no medicine, and no livelihood. 

So when cunning and crafty Raya sees a golden object glinting in the sunlight on the bank of the reservoir, she decides to investigate, hoping its something of worth that merchants would be interested in.

But what she discovers is so much more.

Along with her best friend, Awen, Raya is thrust into a quest to save her village. Armed with Tarius, her divine bow, she must venture forth to form an alliance with the New Gods to defeat those who would see her villagers perish.

The Duchess Cannot Sleep || ONC 2021 by Kehanni

Duchess Andreya Marivatan was murdered at the age of twenty-two. It was during the hours the pool of night was deepest, Andreya soundlessly asleep in silk sheets behind the curtains of her elegant canopy bed. By the time she awoke to a noise, the deed had already been done and her sheets dripped with a deep vermillion stain. That was the first time Andreya met death, and it would not be the last. The death that knew everyone did not know Andreya - not even so much as her name - and because of it Andreya could not die. So she survived and forgot, the stains on her bedsheets becoming naught but a dream. It took many years for Andreya to realize she had not grown a day older since she had died, however, and that in a society where status is dictated by age, it would not be long before she had visitors on her doorstep asking questions she did not know how to answer. The reason behind her youthful features. The explanation behind her lack of scars. Andreya Marivatan was an impossible woman who wanted nothing more than to have died the night she was killed, and Andreya Marivatan was determined to get her wish. ❉ ❉ ❉ - First draft: COMPLETE & EDITING (all suggestions welcome :>) - Shortlister in the Open Novella Contest 2021: prompts 22, 57, 62, 66, 71, and 87.

Yamlok: The Realm Of The Dead by Nicental

⊰ The Wattys 2021 Shortlist ⊱ ⊰ Winner of the Wattpad India Awards 2020 Fantasy and Adventure ⊱ ; Two brave hearts emerged from the tragedy- one a saviour, the other a hero. ; 'I wish we're sent on another hunt,' she spoke, 'I simply can't wait to slay those sorry creatures.' Her face contorted with disgust. He chuckled and gently tugged her nose, 'All in good time, Anamika. The cosmos waits for everyone.' She was surprised, 'It does?' He nodded, 'Of course it does. How else would you explain the coexistence of so many souls?' 'I thought they just went on. The higher souls go to the Devlok and they forget about us.' He shook his head, 'No, they don't. Indeed, they stay there in the Devlok for some time but when they're done enjoying the fruit of their good deeds, they go back to the Prithvilok.' He paused, 'It's birth and death over and over again.' ; Join Anamika and Keval as they venture into the depths of war and death- from normal beings of the earth to the strongest of the two warring realms. Both felt worthless, both were broken, both were afraid. But worthlessness can be fought, brokenness can be mended, fears can be faced. They feared for themselves for the Heaven they were promised seemed lost, gone to waste. . . . #1 in Sunflower Awards 2.0 #2 in The Sapphire Awards

Are the gods fair rulers? Above all, how will Reyna react to Annabeth's new feelings toward her Roman counterpart? _ • Winner in the 2020 PJO Watty Awards (Category: Percy Jackson, Annabeth Chase) run by @PercyJacksonAwards _ Top Rankings: •#1 in [Reynabeth], 7 October 2020 - 6 February 2021 •#1 in [ethics] out of 1.8k stories, 6 February 2021 •#1 in [Reyna] out of 1.5k stories, 17 October 2021 _ A note on chronology: This work takes some creative liberties with canon. The adventure takes place the summer after /The Blood of Olympus/. /The Hidden Oracle/ is happening at the same time, but Annabeth doesn't know it. Annabeth has already met Sadie and has done research on Egyptian mythology. She suspects other (i.e. non-Egyptian Greco-Roman) myths' gods are real, but has no tangible evidence...yet. _ Dedicated to the Unico Literature, Comedy, and Design Team. Thanks for the laughs and literature. _ /The Fate of Olympus/ is only available on Wattpad and AO3.

Lilith Between Flesh And Spirit by AnnamitaMuscaria

21x FEATURED | ONC 2024'S SHORTLISTER, AMBASSADOR'S PICK AND HONOURABLE MENTION While fighting an Archons' system, which was designed to kill them one life after another, a demon goddess and a young woman will eventually reclaim their true identities. *** Lilith is the only woman, conceived by the Archons leader, Yaldabaoth. She is also the first one to say no to him. The first to have eaten from the tree of knowledge and evil. But now, she is just a tamed goddess into the submission of fearing her own destiny within his material world until she crosses the path of Norea. Her brother Seth saved her in extremis from death so she could reach out to Lilith. Only she-the first woman-could protect Norea from the Archons. And hell hath no fury like a woman scorned when they both teamed up to take down Yaldabaoth. *** CW: Loosely inspired by the Bible's views by the Gnostics, this story is in no way intended to offend anyone's religious beliefs. It is also a reimagining that is written with themes suitable for a mature audience. See foreword for detailed trigger warning.
