In the prophecy, there are five heroes.
Five heroes who will save the land of Judicia, a continent on a planet named Mora.
After terrible tragedy struck Judicia, the 6 countries it held fell to the reincarnation of the Fallen King, a sky-scraping monster, who now roams Judicia, unchallenged. Just like he had 500 years ago.
In the prophecy, there are five individuals.
The first is Gambit, a 32 year-old widowed human and weapons master from Wauster, the northern most country on Judicia and the eldest hero of the five.
The second is Caspess, a timid 25 year-old half goat man who tried to live a modest life in the countryside of Athal after an incident that left him traumatized.
The third is Vilja, a viscous 23 year-old who had only truly known the vast forestry and wilderness of Iustrana, her devotion to nature sometimes makes her disagreeable.
The fourth is Berkan, a 12 year-old boy from the slums of Trixel who possesses bird-like features, immense strength, and is the youngest hero of the five.
And the fifth is Serena, a 17 year-old who hailed from Ka'Took and possessed the blood of Sagittarius, a god in the world of Mora who stood for accuracy and prophecies.
In the prophecy, there are five friends.
Summoned by the queen of the last standing country of Judicia, Runefall, the queen is determined to save Judicia after her discovery of the prophecy in her castle's archives. She tells them that they must go forth and vanquish the Fallen King, but there is a cost.
In the prophecy, there are five hearts.
But by the end of it, only one of them will continue to beat. And Serena, the only one destined to survive the prophecy, will do everything in her power to save her newfound friends. But fighting destiny is never easy, and the five must fight and gather the relics of the past that were used to defeat the Fallen King 500 years ago.
All the while running from the beast himself.
Can Serena change her friends fate, or were they doomed to die from the start?

The is now a SAMPLE ONLY. The story will continue EXCLUSIVELY on AnyStories. "Hello little one" came a booming voice, deep and sultry that made my stomach flutter like wings of a butterfly. "My Lord" I replied, keeping my head down, a quick curtesy, and eyes glued to the floor as if the marble tile was the most interesting pattern in the room. The auras coming from the dragon king was so demanding I felt like I could pass out. "Look at me little one. We do not bite. Much." the voice commanded, although gently it held power. A few snickers softly resonated. I took a breath and gently rose my eyes to meet the most beautiful golden eyes. I was so entranced that I almost didn't hear the one word that was going to change my life forever. Little did I know just how much my life was about to change. "MATE." It took me a minute to register what just happened. Excuse me? Did i just hear the word mate? Oh shit. -------- Everly lives in a world where supernatural creatures live side by side humans.

"You will seek death but you will not find it. You will long to lose consciousness but ever present you shall stay. Finally alone you will shrivel up and die without your own kind in all your magnificent splendor, and only after everyone you love is dead. By then, it will no longer matter, for when you finally have your light you will depart from it faster than fire from a raging wind. But perhaps you would have comfort yet little one. Death is a sweet thing in a world like this." Cursed by a Wishing Dragon when she was only a dragonet, Stygian sets off in search of a cure, leaving behind everyone she knows and loves. On her journey for help she meets more enemies than friends, with a little red fox as her only companion. At last she finds Turbulence; God of Confusion; the only one who can save her, or so he or she claims. *** Fyran, the Librarian's Apprentice is on the hunt for Leviathan; a legendary beast long foretold by prophecy, a prophecy she had disregarded as an old fable. Yet, ever since her father stumbled into their broken down house one dark night covered in blood and deliriously talking about a dragon with iron teeth, Fyran is no longer so sure. After her father dies and renders them all penniless, Fyran goes in search of this creature to take revenge-and the huge bounty on its head issued by the King of Sufta. Perhaps she will be successful and they'll no longer have to grovel as the poorest of the poor, and at the very least she'll acquire justice for the murder of her father, the only father she's ever had. But there is an old and forgotten prophecy as old as time fast approaching on the horizon. Nobody can stop it, fate is a force that can't be reckoned with, and everything that ever has and will ever happen to every citizen has already been foretold in their scrolls. The fate of Sufta is uncertain, and powerful forces are at play, but who has enough discernment to understand a long forgotten prophecy that's been dismissed by generations?

Clip of future Chapter: "Oh, give me a moment. You're still a man, and I haven't shared a bed with one since my twin and I were five." I wined, making him sit up and wrap his arm around my waist. I swear my heart skipped a beat from his aggressive actions towards me. "Take comfort in the knowledge that you've been my sister's best friend since you were five. You think I would do anything to you?" He then pulled me closer to him and had me lay down in his arms. "You do know Dessa praying you're my mate. So I can become a real sister." Grayson chuckled with his eyes shut. "She wanted that since she knew about my crush on you." I studied his facial expression as I saw him relax. I couldn't help but smile at how peaceful Grayson's now grown-up looked. "Go to sleep instead of watching me sleep." He whispered, leaving me flustered before I turned around in his arms, so I could rest my eyes this time around and get comfortable. -x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x- In Supernatural Realm, there are Kingdoms in almost all countries to keep Law & Order amongst their kind.
