The kingdoms of Caedland and Saroviya have been at war for centuries, and a darkness has spread across the Northern Lands. In the east, Saroviya has been crippled by fighting on multiple fronts, while Caedland still reels from the murder of its queen's consort and the disappearance of its princess nearly two decades ago. Now, in the war-torn lands between the two kingdoms, a new threat has emerged, an unnatural disease that specifically targets the witches who fight for both kingdoms.

In Caedland, a new draft means that young witch Judith Craven must report to the kingdom's capital to join the New Army and begin her training in the military arts. There, however, she soon discovers that her power is not as it seems-and neither is her heritage.

Meanwhile, in Saroviya, the king's personal Healer, Alina Kalinin, finds herself sucked into a dangerous political landscape when she is assigned by the leader of the Order of Mages to create a cure for the mysterious new disease that has appeared on her kingdom's border.

Even as Judith grapples with awful power and Alina struggles to understand a disease whose origins she soon comes to suspect aren't natural, a group of criminals in the neutral kingdom of Rijkelund set out to steal a sacred artifact from the Saroviyan embassy. But, as they embark on a seemingly-impossible mission, they soon discover that all is not as it may seem, and both Saroviya and Caedland are playing a very different game than it may seem from the outside.All Rights Reserved

And after years of hiding, Eralyn is brought to light with an outrageous proposal that leads to her exile. After discovering a Haven and a water user who would change her life, she began to wonder if things would truly be alright. However, with an upcoming Eclipse that would endanger everything she loves, Eralyn discovers that there is more to her faction than she expected. Growing up with Eralyn, Pylia wonders what the cause for Eralyn's exile was. Joining an enemy faction and getting close with a general, Pylia searches for answers before she's left to make an important choice that would decide both her fate, and Eralyn's. - >-< - This story is just a first draft, so many mistakes will be made.

Dark Of The Sun - An Andoherra Novel by TitaniaTempest

Dark magic, beautiful women, enemies-to-lovers... Jordan, the last living Sorceress of Bal'Talanor blood, has come of age at last. She is the rightful Heir, but she has grown up on Earth, unmindful of her identity. She has never heard of the world of Andoherra, nor of World Queens, and, to her, magic is nothing but a parlour trick. When she accidentally finds her way back to her homeland, she discovers her true nature, her awakening power - and the flamboyant Fire Queen who stands between her and her destiny. Calyx is a deadly Sorceress bound by duty to protect Jordan. She will stop at nothing to restore the heir to the throne and slay all those who stand in the way. This should be an easy task - well within the capabilities of her immense magic - but there are three things she didn't bargain for: losing Jordan, a vengeful dragon, and the small problem of feelings for her mortal enemy, Nerys. Most frustrating of all, she doesn't have long to debate which issue is the more pressing concern. The starving world of Andoherra is sliding toward total self-destruction, and all the magic in existence doesn't appear to be able to make a damned thread of difference. A/N: Leaving this story up because it's a great reminder to myself about where I started, and how much I've learned about writing since Dark Of The Sun first went live.
