OVERALL WINNER of the WattALegend: Quorin Saga collaboration contest hosted by the Fantasy family of Ambassador profiles (2021)

***

There is a strange restlessness in the magical land of Quorin. 

A teenage girl sneaking home one night finds herself face to face with Scydelle's greatest legend: a dagger that wanders the countryside in search of a new master. But its power comes at a terrible price. 

After a cunning witch siren steals the Ocean Song, a brave merprincess must journey to the Dead Waters to retrieve it for the sake of the underwater realm of Abyssos. 

A young monster-slayer journeys to Ashelum to face a murderous beast, only to come upon the secret of the kingdom's demise and its restoration. 

When an elf knight's quest reaches a fork in the road, he must decide whether to continue his search for Aelfdene's missing Queen or battle the beast terrorising a mountain village. 

The angel Princess and demon Prince's forbidden love was only their first trial. Now they must keep their baby safe from those who would kill him to prevent him from uniting the kingdoms of Haven and Hell. 

The other five kingdoms swirl in a chaos of their own. 

Ten quests. Ten heroes to answer the call, hoping that their bravery is enough to make the difference between life and death. 

Sometimes winning comes at a cost, sometimes it does not, but one thing is for certain. 

Expect the unexpected, for in Quorin, nothing is ever what it seems.

A collection of fantasy short stories.

(Epic Fantasy/LGBT Romance) COMPLETED & PUBLISHING A Guard's Request will be published with Fantastic Books Publishing in October of 2023, but I have decided to leave this early draft up for anyone who can't wait until then. With the creation of the Valnyr Galaxy, the Guardians vowed never to interfere with the affairs of the mortal realm. However, when sinister forces seek to steal the power of the Manastream, Alamantra's Guardian finds that some oaths are easier to keep than others. Life is about to change for the citizens of Freya as a blight sweeps across the land, corrupting the mana held within their bodies. Princess Arafrey finds herself stripped of all she holds dear, alone on the frontlines. However, there is hope as guards Reyla and Tharin take on a quest from the Gods to cure the sickness, leaving Freya to traverse the Ten Kingdoms in search of The Hand of Miera. But will they be able to find it in time? Meanwhile, in the East, The Duran Empire marshals their forces as the Emperor seeks to invade the starved desserts of Sudra. But the Sudra hold a terrible secret and Queen Nymati will not go down without a fight. * * * Imagine if Tim Burton and Joss Whedon got together to make a story to rival Full Metal Alchemist or Fairy Tail: that's my writing style. I hit some pretty deep topics but I try keep it light and entertaining. Trigger Warnings/Mature Content: I will post trigger warnings at the beginning of scenes to warn people, but let's make a list here just to be sure. Sex, survivors guilt, suicide, rape, murder, gay/lesbian sex, masturbation, assault, torture, addiction... There maybe more I missed, let me know if you feel I should add anything else.
