{ACOTAR AU - Spinoff}

(Note: This story aligns with "A Court of Horizon and Shadows")

"They were the same, she realized, holding pain within themselves for so long. She could feel it. They both were connected in some way... and she didn't fear him as everyone else did."

After being temporarily dismissed by the Daughter of Dawn, Valeria, the attendant of Dawn, decides to head to the Spring Court, visiting her aunts that reside there. Upon her arrival, Valeria notices how bad the High Lady of Night and the War against Hybern impacted them, seeing its citizens trying to return to normalcy.

As she spends her time in the Spring Court, Valeria offers to help, wanting to do anything she can to assist them. But when she goes to the palace of the High Lord by herself out of curiosity, she discovers just how bad Tamlin was affected by his own actions.

And once she comes face to face with him, Valeria will soon realize that they both have more things in common than they should.

Eternal: Azriel by emwritesbookstories

Eternal: (adj.) Lasting or existing forever; without end or beginning Athanasia never complained about her situation. She never felt like she had the right to. A random event leads her to befriend a small boy. A boy that she believed she would never see again. His situation was heartbreaking, she knew that there are others that are more unfortunate just like him. However, this one encounter changes everything she expected of herself, gave her freedom when the world only wants to swallow her up. --- "Why are you doing this? Why are you befriending me? Though we met five hundred years ago, why do you still bring me into your life? So much can happen in that many years but instead of staying with your friends or finding other things to do, you're with me. Why?" I ask again. Though I don't like being so forward, I can't help it. I'm scared to hurt him. He shifts his gaze to me. His hazel eyes gleam into my blue ones as if he knows something that I don't. "You're right. I had five hundred years, five hundred years to stay with my friends and five hundred years to find other hobbies." He pauses, taking in breath. "But I had five hundred years without you, we only had two weeks together. And those two weeks were the best I've ever had. That's why I want to continue them-with you, Athy." --- Disclaimer: All ACOTAR characters and plot belong to Sarah J. Maas. My characters and scenes are my own work.

A Court of Scars and Shadows by atlapjohp

Follows story line of the ACOTAR series.... picks off right after ACOSF, so of course spoilers are meant to be said in this story. For people who haven't read ACOTAR, read at your own risk, but fair warning you might be just a tad bit confused. ALSO... I will not be trashing any character, expect for assholes like Beron and his sons (expect for Eris). STORY DESCRIPTION: Gwyneth Berdara has spent her last year still not being able to leave that gods-damned library. She wants to leave, but every time she is about to reach the outside world, she freezes and goes back to Sangravah. She tells herself that she is safe, she is in Velaris, but nothing works. She feels as if she's still stuck in the same place from when she entered the library two years ago. One incident makes her leave the Night Court and into another court. How will she react? Azriel was there in Sangravah, but he had arrived too late. Ever since the incident, Azriel has been slipping farther and farther away from his family. He doesn't know why the incident had been eating away at him, it wasn't his first time failing at his job. Azriel finds shocking news that he must keep from Gwyn. The plot line derives somewhat from the initial description. P.S. : I do not own this art, I just made it as my cover! Same thing goes for the characters, Sarah J Maas, wrote these character from scratch. Except for my OC!

Seven Courts of Love and Magic by nizuaxo

The magic of Prythian is fading, and with it everything that Zaria loves. As daughter of Tamlin, High Lord of the Spring Court, her father's reputation precedes her, but she is determined to save the only home she's ever known. Across the realm, Nyx struggles with the pressure of the legacy he carries as Rhysand's son, the most powerful High Lord of all time, the High Lord of the Night Court. In an unlikely alliance forged from family rivalry and an unwanted mating bond, Nyx and Zaria are Prythian's last hope of existence. Together, they must travel through the seven courts, reconciling their differences to save their home, and their parents. **Inspiration taken from the world created by Sarah J Maas**

Manipulated Court by albragarcheron

April, Tamlin's daughter, always felt like a problem. Her father always made sure she understood what a flaw she was due to her lack of inherited Spring power. She tried to help as much as she could, going nowadays to the Mortal Lands South of the manor, but she spent a lot of her time confused with scrambled memories and a growing unsettling feeling. Her world changed, though when during a normal sneaky night she met him - Nyx Archeron. The winged male shook her heart and made her doubt of all horrible things about the Night Court she has always believed. Disclaimer: I do now own many of the character in the story. It is a mere tail related to a wish to have a story between Nyx and Tamlin's daughter.
