A collection of one-shots and short stories revolving around my own creations.
The land of Ithierien is in the middle of a great war. According to the Finishers, that is.
Magic has been outlawed for centuries, deemed unsafe for the human population after an infamous wizard gained the ability to control any creature with mystical blood and nearly wiped out all human life.
The king of the time, Hadmaine Finisher, commissioned a magical mirror that could reflect any magic that was dealt with it. In the final battle, the wizard was defeated. This mirror, however, shattered into three separate pieces.
These pieces were then fastened into the gem of a ring, the hilt of a sword, and the face of a shield. Each item was given to a trusted Finisher to protect and lead, thus the Reflectors were born. The first order of business, to seek out and destroy all magic so that they may never again have to face certain death.
With many of the magical species already depleted and suffering, the witch trials that the Finishers started were devastating. Any species other than human was highly regulated and tormented. Anyone, human or not, found practicing magic was sent to trials that usually led to execution.
Now, the Finisher's rule is law. Establishing themselves as a totalitarian government, they police the streets of every town in the name of protection. Those in the Finisher clan have a duty to their brethren, enforced with a strict upbringing and code system. Yet, despite their thoroughness, rebellion still lurks.

Into the Depths | Chronicles of Nemo
"After you achieved your revenge, after that brief moment of ecstasy at finally doing it, killing the person who caused you so much harm, you felt empty inside. It's as if all the actions you took, all the sacrifices you made, all the people you cut off, in the end they were all meaningless. Some forms of revenge help you grow into someone new, be it better or worse. But revenge like ours, they just make us feel like everything would be better without us." "And?" "And I don't want anyone to give into that hopelessness, that emotion is exclusively for me." A lone journey through life, scarred by the actions taken in the past, guided by the promise to ensure it happens to no other in the world. Nemo was not a hero, nor did he try to masquerade as one, but when one's aim is to hurt the ones that exploit others and aid those who need it, some may mistake him as one, and who is he to argue. On a regular day, around dusk, the assassin is tasked to break into a castle. It was supposed to be a simple payday for Nemo, but a strange encounter with another, slighted by the world, hell-bent on revenge, the circumstance too familiar for him to ignore. How do two scorned by the fates help each other to become complete as they fight against the malice everpresent in the world? (Part 1 is Updated Every Friday) (Posted on both Royal Road and Inkitt)

Memento Mori - Yang Path (Todoroki's Ending)
With time no longer being on your side, your decision to let Todoroki watch over you seems to be going fine. The bond the two of you have grows in a rather unexpected way. However, as he gets to know you more and more and as something buried deep in the past of his father's legacy comes to the forefront, Todoroki must decide his true opinion of you and his own destiny. Magic has existed since the dawn of humanity and through the centuries humans have begun to learn and master the skills needed to have control over their abilities. In this world, the type of magic you use is determined by which God claims you as their kin and as a result, bestows their blessing onto you. Each and every living being has a mark of their God somewhere on their form, showing what Godkin they belong to and what type of base magic they are able to use. However as humanity no longer organizes itself by Godkin like it used to, now dividing into kingdoms and clans, the Gods have become displeased by their disrespect to their gifts. And now... people are no longer dying... or being born. A true crisis that has put all the world on hold and asking questions. However, you have a different question: yours being despite magic being so prominent in your world, why are you the one born without a mark.

In a new world all their own the creators left them but two rules to obey, the first was that they forgave the humans for their crimes against the species. The last, more a warning than a request. "Always remember that the rulers of this land and the land itself are one and the same. If you live for the light this place shall prosper, if you allow darkness to reside within your heart, darkness resides in this place. You shall find yourself right back where you started"Terminé
