Ryoku Nagami was one of many young children trying to grow up on the oppressive Iron Pier. One fateful day Ryoku loses a stick fight against an older boy who was trying to prove something. An onlooker,  the mysterious Magician, sees the fight and is impressed with Ryoku's fighting. He offers to take Ryoku with him and promises him a future of significance if he chooses to do so. The Magician has a plan. A storm is coming. Sometimes the best way through the storm is to steer directly into it. 

This story is based on prompt 82 from the ONC2021 contest. 
- Age and wisdom are certainly not mutually exclusive, but when a case of mistaken identity results in a teen taking charge of a small nation, who knows what might happen!

I plan to make a small twist the the prompt in that the Ryoku assumes the identity and physical appearance of one of the tribal princes. This leads his people to "mistake" him for the actual prince  which is all part of the Magician's plot.

This is the first story I've ever written so I welcome any and all feedback. I prefer to post updates in groups so I can do some light editing before posting. Even if there is some time without an update, I am committed to finishing the 20,000 word contest. Hope you enjoy!All Rights Reserved

Too bad his second chance at life didn't come with a warning label. Reborn into Ezura, a realm where magic flows like water and power corrupts like poison, Eren's pure heart makes him the perfect target. As an apprentice mage with stars in his eyes and trust in his soul, he dreams of becoming the hero in a world that has no use for them. But Ezura doesn't reward the pure-it devours them. When his faith in humanity is shattered by a betrayal that leaves him bleeding out in a ditch, something inside him breaks. Or maybe, something awakens. Gone is the boy who wanted to save everyone. In his place rises someone who understands the truth: if the world wants a villain, he'll give them a masterpiece. Armed with magic, fueled by spite, and backed by a brilliant mind he'd forgotten he had, Eren begins his metamorphosis. Those who took advantage of his kindness? They're about to learn why you shouldn't leave your victims breathing. But every time he stares into the abyss of his own making, echoes of his former self whisper from the depths.

In a war between elemental powers and magic... who will win? For several months the crime rates in Ninjago have been silent, ever since the ninjas returned from the Kingdom of Shintaro. However, that's all about to change... When three mysterious figures attempt to steal a strange spell book, the ninjas realize both Ninjago and themselves might be in danger once again. In the midst of attempting to warn their elemental allies of this mysterious new threat, Master Wu is forced to confront a regretful event from his past to find Morro's family, including Ry, his fifteen year old niece and the new master of wind. Suddenly, Ry must leave her family and quiet village life behind to train as a ninja and unlock her newfound elemental powers. However, she soon finds herself thrown into all sorts of obstacles that completely turn her world upside down. All the while, she must learn to overcome her own fears and embrace the changes as she joins Ninjago's heroes in an attempt to stop the new threat to their home. With more questions than answers, the ninjas and Ry suddenly find themselves entangled within a series of treacherous events - all resulting from a forgotten past between the First Spinjitzu Master and a powerful sorcerer. *A Ninjago Fanfiction* *this story occurs after Ninjago season 13, Master of the Mountain* *I do not own anything in Ninjago, such as characters and places* *I only own my ocs, places I've created, & the book plot* *I own all artwork shown, including the cover art, which is all drawn by me* Thank you so much for reading!

Payback: Isekai by Aerlev13

[That Time I Got Summoned Into Another World And Punched A Crazy Prince] *you don't have to read the original novel to understand the story, but...why don't you?* Lee Yoohan got transmigrated into another world right after his mother's funeral. So instead of a dark alley, he met the arrogant, imposing Jay in a luxurious room full of magic circle drawing. The pale eyed Prince looked down on him in confusion because he didn't think the summoning spell would conjured a perfectly normal looking human male. He definitely never thought the perfectly normal looking human would punch him with magic enhanced fist and teleported away right in front of the prince's face. Interesting. The abandoned Prince Jay had never felt this excited in his entire life. ____________________________________ Original novel by samk Manhwa by Fujoking Cover art by yours truly ____________________________________ This is my take on the Payback story happening in another world, with sword and magic and PRINCE JAY because Fujoking drew one 🫅🏻 I had a lot of fun planning on this one, and hopefully the fantasy term wouldn't be confusing (please bear with it 🧙🏻)

Violets and Chrysanthemums by So_sugamama02

Prince Hitoshi isn't much of a social person let alone a romantic one, so when his parents arrange a marriage for him for a desperate political alliance with a neighboring kingdom, you can guess how he felt about it. He understood that their country was running low on resources and needed the alliance to keep his people alive, but he'd heard stories of the aloof prince of Nabu and he wasn't looking forward to meeting him. Let alone marrying the guy. To make matters worse, one day under the cover of darkness he finds a very cute blonde boy dressed in rags trying to climb an old apple tree. With a little bit of bonding over flowers and some fibs here and there the two grow close. Not even realizing who each other were until... (Okay so this is a Shinkami royalty/fantasy AU because there aren't enough of them on here. This'll be nothing like my other story because that was horrid so if you're coming from there please don't expect anything close to that.) ‼ I do not own any of these characters or art used in this story. ‼

As the Crow Falls | ✔ by SmokeAndOranges

Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.
