beautiful bedtime beginning dark darkness fable fire folktale goddess happy illuminate interesting king learning light love new newbeginning newbeginnings noromance original queen transition universe world

Have you ever thought about how nighttime is actually the natural state of the universe, and the only reason we have daytime is because Earth just so happens to be facing a giant star illuminating it? This short story, modeled somewhat after the style of a myth/fable/folktale, deals with Darkness coping with the sudden arrival of Light and the change in her beloved Universe's perspective.

This story is appropriate for all ages, and I personally find that it makes a lovely bedtime story on an anxious night. I hope you enjoy! Comments welcome. Have a delightful evening, everyone.All Rights Reserved

Out Of Orbit | ✓ by insane_over_books

She was a lone star forced to stay away from the sun. She learned to keep quiet and sit in the back. She forced herself to stay hidden and unseen because she was only a star pushed out of the constellation. He was the planet that moons were captivated by. He learned to stand up and burn bright for others. He forced himself to achieve greatness because he was the planet who grew too lead. Could the star possibly fall back in its course? Or would the star fall out of orbit forever? "𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬𝐧'𝐭 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭, 𝐢𝐭 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐞."

𝐕𝐈. 𝐍𝐄𝐏𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐇𝐄 ➵ 𝐏𝐉𝐎 𝐱 𝐇𝐏 by l-yraa

𝐍𝐄𝐏𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐇𝐄 | (n.) something that can make you forget grief or suffering Where there is life, there is death. Where there is light, there is darkness. There is a balance within the universe, always. Only two things remained infinite in the universe; death, and chaos. The lifespan of a demigod is one that is unbelievably short, but alas- death is inevitable. Lilith Jade died protecting those she loved, and she will continue to live through her loved ones. What happens when one equation is taken out of balance? The light, taken away and left them to succumb to the darkness. There is only one definite result; chaos. There is nothing more dangerous than a lovers' revenge; and there is nothing that is stopping them from getting back their light, even if they were running towards death. The end of times is coming; and there was nothing left for them to lose. When the light fades, the bell chimes; then comes chaos. [BOOK SIX OF THE 'ELYSIAN' SERIES]

Strange Things by Lisset130

Monsters have always been the bad guys. Fairytales are nothing more than just bedtime stories. This is how the world functions. Or at least this is how the world has taught you to think. This might be the reason why earth is under the rule of modern science. Nobody ever takes the time to just stop and take a look around... Because of modern science, nobody believes in the impossible anymore, everyone has the instinct that if you can't see something it's not there. There's a truth about fairytales and monsters, but if your ever in the mood to know, the only way to find out...is to fall down the rabbit hole.. "Come with me." "Where?" "A place where I go to escape reality." "Your insane!" "Obviously." "I'm not going anywhere and you can't force me!" "I wasn't forcing you, just trust me and I promise you'll understand everything." "...." "Well?" I extend my hand and she slowly takes it. "There's no going back. You'll never be the same after this.." She nods her head understandingly and I pull her into a world of madness and wonder...

Her Secret by awkwardlyrando

I sighed heavily as I scanned the forest. I had heard something or someone to be specific, wandering about. I decided I would leave once I affirmed they weren't a danger. "What are you doing in my land, human?" A deep enchanting voice spoke I sighed once again "I'm not human, just smell like one" I spoke as I turned around to see the most stunning man I have ever seen "Mate" he spoke "Find another female, Lycan" I spat He only growled at me in response. Men. My brother was the same way. It's kinda funny how all, correction, most shifter men think alike. I would've thought he would be different, after all, he is Lycan. Something of myths. But then again, so are the supernatural. I turned away from him, not even looking at him. I didn't want to remember what he looked like so I didn't give him a second glance. I heard him move closer. I quickly grabbed the knife out of my holster and threw it at a tree next to him. He stops moving then. "Heed my warning. It's the only one you'll get" I spoke coldly "I will find you. Then you will have no escape from me" he spoke as he backed away I could understand. Lycans, like lion-shifters, were going extinct. Therefore mates were even more important to them. But, even if I understood I still didn't want to be someone's mate. After all, I was Destiny Requalhi, Creator and Destructor of All. ------------------------------ Destiny Requalhi, a girl with a rough past and set in stone future. She wanted to be a normal lioness when she grew up but got so much more. She constantly is looking behind her back ready for a random attack to bestow itself upon her.

Timeline: a Wings of Fire fanfiction (COMPLETED) by dragonwritesthings

Darkstalker's face flashed through her mind: the face of a dragon she had yet to meet, but whose face came with a torrent of visions--joy and love and pain and horror, so mixed-up she couldn't untangle it, couldn't even breathe when she thought about it. -Legends: Darkstalker What would the world have been like if Darkstalker hadn't gotten started down his path of darkness? If he hadn't started doing secret spells? Or if Clearsight had just noticed a little faster than she did? Or if the future had just been a little easier to reach? This is the story of two dragons whose futures are entangled far too closely. This is the story of hope and hopelessness, and of how the future is something you can lose. This is a story of how happy endings can fall apart, and how life is never neat. Or easy. This is a story of how happy endings can fall apart, and how to put them back together again. All characters, except my OCs, and the world of Pyrhhia, belong to Tui T. Sutherland. ***USUALLY UPDATES EVERY FRIDAY***

Where Light Meets Dark by Chaton15

[COMPLETED ~ TO BE PUBLISHED... eventually] Sunray was the light, lonely and shining. She was a beacon of hope to the public, but quiet in her own life. To everyone else, anyway. Night was her shadow, sworn to protect her just as much as his home. He was a quiet one, to everyone else, anyway. He was the hero who would rather battle a giant than talk to strangers. They would do anything for each other, even without knowing the real person behind the masks. They were best friends, secretly in love, who didn't know each other's real names. Until they accidentally met in real life, and couldn't figure out why it felt more like déjà vu than anything else . . . ------------------------------------------------------------------- In case the intro of Chapter 2 leaves you wondering, yes, there's a prequel. It's just not out yet. XD Possible TWs: Depression, direct mentions of suicide and PTSD, anxiety attacks, brief mention of drug addiction, death [starvation], violence (typically non-graphic) (Cover art by @Avichayil4 :D) Enjoy!

ONYX MOON by Mk1120

And then he took her away from me... The reason for my entire being...My Light. Now with my light extinguished, I find it easier to do things that I couldn't before. Like hunting down and killing my traitorous brother and his lunatic of a girlfriend before they try to capture and use the evils of the world for their own horrific gain. One last mission...Like I've always planned. Only this time, I'll finally get what I've been looking for this whole time. Eternal Peace with my Mate. Something only Death and Darkness can bring me. You can run big brother...but you can't hide. Not from me. And not from the Darkness.
