An accidental trip to a parallel world required wits from Faust Aldrich, a British high-school teenager, to stop an interdimensional invasion to other worlds - threatening Earth itself. When advanced technology clashed with traditional elemental magic, there would be no one to trust other than those who had enchanting eyes or undying loyalty.
And to Faust, a smile is a commodity he could not reap.

Genre: Young-adult fantasy, sci-fi, action, adventure, friendship.

"Everyone loves a good fantasy, but my life was turned upside down by one." What would you do if you had the ability to control the air? How about if you were suddenly brought to a world where, despite your powers, you're at the bottom of the food chain? On a fateful night, Max Walker finds himself summoned to Asterisk and contracted to Liliana Lockwood as her familiar. Forced to leave behind his life on Earth, Max begins a precarious journey into the unknown world of magic. Training as a knight, learning to control mana, battling rogue necromancers and even being mistaken for Duke Walker's son... it's just one thing after the next. But as if that wasn't bad enough, Asterisk, a world which subverts reality as you know it, may just have something to do with Max's own heaven-defying origin... and a secret that could leave the universe hanging by a thread.

Being rewritten [Book 1 of The Demoness's Chronicles] Alice was abandoned at the gate of the orphanage as a baby during a cold winter night. She got abused by the children and ignored by the caretakers except for a hand few in the orphanage. The reason was that she was at the bottom of the food chain as she had the least amount of mana. She wouldn't be able to cast a single spell even if she had a secondary [Uncommon] element as her element as she would have insufficient mana to power it up. Her two best friends, Mika and Yuu, who are also her big brothers in all but blood, have the most amount of mana that they could be acknowledged as a blessed OR gifted child. They were there to help, protect and comfort her when she was in pain, felt lonely or needed them. Until one day, her life started to change and her wheel of fate started moving. She had gained a new family with Mika and Yuu but found out that there was a huge conspiracy going on that caused her abandonment and was linked to her family's legacy. Join Alice as she journey to show the world her strength and take revenge on her enemies that had harmed her and her loved ones!

"YES! all those times when we were younger, we ate, slept and played together. You've just been my friend for all my li-" I tried to explain him that our relationships have boundaries but he cut me off in the middle "cant we do that now?" he said with his lips parted, breathing heavily "like you said.... eat, sleep.. and play?" he smirked at my face inching closer towards me. That was it and I couldnt move any more. -------------------- Azalea Stevens is a 17 year old girl who goes to Somerfield High.

'4 Tribes, 4 Times we are used, 4 times we are separated for someone's thoughts on how this should be, and you wonder- was it always like this?' Four different tribes, based off of the four elements, have always been separate. Different rules, different royalty, different religions, different looks, different traditions, and different abilities embedded into each tribe. It's what make each one unique from the other. However, now, innocent kids are being thrown out of their tribe-disowned by their families; outcasted. One by one, each are no longer getting their 'correct' ability, and are removed by force- it feels unavoidable. A group of 8 unique kids, each coming from their own background, have been pushed together after being removed from their tribe. Driven by an urge to find out what is causing this mess- and a hate towards their rulers -the small group pushes on, unsure if they will succeed. Even with all they have been put through, some are still weary of four different tribes being together. Maybe this was meant to be? o° --- If you have read Paws in Talons, you will know that this is remake, using a little inspiration from what we wrote about a year ago from now. However, with many differences, including the abilities, romance, tribes, characters, and more ~For the general audience ~If you're squeamish over blood and death, wouldn't recommend ~This will be posted on Echo and Ripple's accounts We hope you enjoy! <33 -This book is bound to be written all the way throughout the entire thing, so this part is just i don't know. ~~~ NOTE: This book is not a fanfic, nor does it have any relation to "The Last Airbender" or "Legends of Korra". We definitely do see how it can be related to that, but we did not intend for that to be the outcome. Thank you!

Fate and Destiny (The Fated Series, #2)

107 parts Complete

A kingdom across the sea, a man in pain clawing at a hated king who bears two shadows who protect him. A child, born from a mother with the powers of the Gods, screaming at a blood-soaked bed. A boy, a Prince, kind and full of the flame of life, sitting beneath a moon bug lit sky. Darkness enfolds the lands, its grasp claiming the continent and making its way from an already broken island, only to be stopped by the hands of fate. The hands of the girl and the Prince, and their love for the people in need of protection. This is their prophecy. This is their destiny and their fate depends on it. The Elemental rulers and their family are just beginning to find allies from unlikely and unimaginative places while creatures of myth and legend resurface from their campfire tales, and things aren't going as planned, so they'll have to find myths and legends of their own. Shouldn't be too hard. #6 - #strong-heroine #41 - #banter **Average Word Count Per Chapter: 8,000 **Edited (x2) LET ME KNOW IF YOU SPOT GRAMMAR ISSUES! *****Last Edited: 12/14/2024 NOTE FROM ME! - I very much model my works to resemble published examples, so there are no notes in any chapters from me, trigger warnings for chapters, etc. Just the world my brain likes to escape to every now and then.
