Years ago, in the area that is now Germany, was a small kingdom nestled in the mountains next to the sea. Its rulers, King Dietrich and Queen Clara were well loved by the people of the kingdom along with their two children, Princess Luana and Prince Alfons. Princess Luana was a kind but restless and excitable girl. Her favorite pastime was riding her horse on the mountain trails. Although submissive, Luana still got herself into many scraps. When a neighboring kingdom makes an invasion Alfons is captured and the kingdom is surrounded. Luana, with her trusty friend, Berti, a funny elf with an innocent look on life, are in the mountains when the attack happens. Luana knows she must do something but fear eats at her heart. An elderly shepherdess takes Luana in for the night and advises her in what she should do in finding "true courage". Although Luana doesn't quite understand she attempts to follow the woman's advice. It's when she is in the enemy lines, trying to come to her brother's aid that she finds what "true courage" really is.

Royal Temptations
Junmyeon thought he knew exactly how his life would play out. At sixteen he was being groomed to take the throne from his father in the future. He was meeting other young royalty in hopes of finding his companion in life. That was, of course, before Korea's peace treaty with China. Enter Zhang Yixing, who seems to turn his world on its head, and Junmyeon's not sure how to handle it. Yixing always believed he'd grow up, marry a young, beautiful girl, and run the country of China with no problems whatsoever. At least, that was the plan. Until his parents made amends with Korea, and Yixing is forced to fly there for a party and stay for a few weeks of "cultural lessons." As he learns the ways of Korea, he also realizes he has a lot in common with the Prince from across the sea, and all the warning signs are screaming it's a no go. But against their better judgement, a friendship forms, and from there, I guess as they'd say, the rest is history. ... For creativity's sake... No spoils! (long running joke in the history of this story's existence lol). Also cover photo credits to the lovely bcdwolf. They're the best. Now complete! Oh my Lord.Complete
