In a world of gods and mortals, we follow the story of Esther, a twenty years old woman born from the union of a half elf and the Goddess of Death. Three main goddesses have ruled this world as far back as history goes: the goddesses of Life, of Love and of Death. Esther had been brought to their dominion in order to receive training of her powers and serve alongside her mother. However, frustrated by constant expectations and prejudice, she soon turns to the strange voice within her calling out for something beyond the god's realm. At the cost of a long time friendship, Esther takes her powers into her own hands and leaves. Responding to the call of the God of Journey himself, Kader, they both travel alongside an equally unique set of characters ; Nora, a young woman from far off islands and touched by magic, Gabrysia and Isek, a strange couple of a woman warrior and a wounded archer, Bion, a male nymph seeking to heal his home, Kaori, a mysterious deity of the moon and Tarendra a small god of the stars and fortune. 
Aligning their goals and slowly forming bonds sealed in blood, the group is faced with bigger stakes than any of them had asked for, and with their personal morals challenged and broken down, they uncover secrets and truths buried both deep within the world's roots and their own minds. Knowing that history itself cannot be trusted and that the rulers of the divine world are not who they pretend to be, what are their chances to outrun the Goddess of Death herself?

19 parts Complete Mature
(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.

She's spent her entire life in a world that was 50/50 for her...school was rough but she had companions. Her home life was great but it had its ups and downs. She was beautiful! But...she didn't feel that way. Perhaps another life could give her that? A sense of renewal, a chance to be someone better and greater than the person she originally was. "But!

After all, it's not like I'm going to be a world-renowned hero right?" ___________ What happens when you die? Do you go to a religious after-life?
