1800s apothecary drama fantasy folklore historical kelpies love scotland sirens violin ya

1824 Scotland: Lain, a violin-playing apothecary grieving his father, opens his heart to Adaira... only to lose her sirens. Old flames and town secrets aside, Lain won't relent until he brings her home or she pulls him under.

A Song for a Siren is a YA historical fantasy and is a blend of folklore, romantic themes, and atmosphere. It's 104,700 words and takes place in a version of Rona in Scotland that has mythical yet plausible, plants and creatures.

After losing his father, Lain's love Adaira gets pulled into the sea by sirens. Monty, A shipwrecked fisherman, tells of a melody in the water; the same one Adaira sang to Lain the night she was taken. Gavin, the lighthouse keeper who found Lain that dreadful night, knows more than he's letting on. While working the apothecary shop, Lain struggles with grief and filling his da's shoes. It doesn't help that Finlay, Lain's unrequited love, is back in town, wondering what went wrong in their friendship, or that every time he plays his violin something goes wrong. Thankfully, Monty sticks around, though Lain is uncertain as to why. With his da's journal, mythical plants, and violin, Lain and Monty endeavor to enchant his siren to come home, and not drown in the process, whether it be by sirens, kelpies, or the caoineag.

Everyone in this story has lost someone or something. Grief and healing are the heart of it all.
After years of writing, editing, querying and editing some more, I'll be releasing the first chapter and potentially subsequent pages up until Chapter 3.Seluruh Hak Cipta Dilindungi Undang-Undang

"You must stay away from the water." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Briony Fairborn, a midwife in eighteenth-century Scotland, comes from a family shrouded in scandal. Left with only one friend after her mother's death, she has little hope of gaining any others, let alone finding a husband.

On the night Santiago Mendes arrives, he comes with a broken ship, a broken leg, and a broken spirit that Briony finds herself profoundly drawn to. Her scarred heart slowly starts to open, and although Briony suspects he may be hiding something, she cannot help but dream of the possibility of love. That is, until another stranger appears in town, intent on repaying a childhood debt. A dangerously handsome stranger who shows Briony that she's even more different than she could have imagined. And that her past is far darker than she realized. Magic, romance, and political intrigue collide as the secrets surrounding one Scottish woman begin to unravel.

Heart of Life oleh unholyWordsmith

Your name is Loren, and you're one of the rare male sirens. You also can't sing, so you're pretty useless. You have a drunk human friend named Angelica and a supernatural companion named Polly, and they're determined to find you a mate, despite the fact that you are far from female, and a leader of a group at that. Your name is Loren and your life as a siren pretty much blows. Though maybe you'd prefer it that way... ~~ Your name is Timber, and you're a wood nymph. Unlike most of your kind, you're a dude, which means the whole temptress thing just doesn't work for you, so you live in a mansion-cabin and use unwitting campers to sustain yourself. You have no friends because you're sort of a snob, but you don't really care because you like having the place to yourself. Unfortunately, your future meal Angie is trying to hook you up with some clueless idiot, which really sucks. Your name is Timber, and you just want to consume your campers in peace, thank you very much. Of course, because you wish it, that'll never happen.

Call of the Siren » Frerard oleh mikestermustdie

"In the end, will you sink or swim?" - Legend has it, that in the murky waters of this cove, sirens lurk -- far out into the horizon and dark depths, awaiting their next victim to allure with their sickly-sweet lullaby. Residents claim that they can still hear the clinking of pickaxes down in the collapsed ruin of the mines, or chills rolling down their spines as spirits brush past them. The full truth is, that Kitsfort isn't quite your normal town... Frank's mother had claimed that the fresh air would help his lungs, and that maybe living by the ocean -- in a secluded, northern town where the sun only shone a whopping two months out of the year -- that, well, maybe he'd grow to like his new life here. Frank wasn't as optimistic about it all, though. Kitsfort was as gloomy as you could get, and all the damned talk of ghosts was about to drive him insane. He wanted out, and he wanted out fast. It doesn't help his case when his freaky, next-door neighbor keeps knocking asking for him -- each encounter leaving an icky, never-ending mush in Frank's gut, his suspicions falling thinner and thinner the more that the truth seems to be revealed, and as more seems to go wrong. And, well, when he finds his heart getting snagged on unwanted feelings towards this mysterious boy -- and as the alleged tree protecting this whole town from evil entities burns, he knows that this is all going to go to shit, and it's going to go to shit fast... A dark tale of a town with its secrets, murky mysteries and unsafe waters, the twisted beauty of death, and trying to escape the inevitable... [Inspired by Ghosts -- Raina Telgemeier]

Echoes of the deep... oleh AvaTheBestWriter

In a world where the seas are ruled by pirates and haunted by sirens, James Potter and Remus Lupin embark on a perilous quest for treasure, only to fall victim to the enchanting songs of the Black brothers, Regulus and Sirius, who drag them beneath the waves. But fate has other plans. As two rival pirate crews-Lily Evans' fearless band of women and Barty Crouch Jr.'s ruthless crew-clash over the search for the sirens, deeper alliances and unexpected loves begin to form. Barty, obsessed beyond reason, falls for the captivating siren Evan Rosier, while his twin sister Pandora finds herself drawn to Lily. Meanwhile, Regulus and James, despite their differences, forge an unbreakable bond, just as Sirius and Remus do. As tensions rise and their journey leads them to the Black family's dark secrets, Orion Black unleashes an army of sirens and sea creatures to destroy them all. In the final battle, blood is spilled, hearts are shattered, and Evan loses his life-sending Barty spiraling into madness. Keeping his promise to Evan, he does the impossible: he burns the ocean itself. With the war over, the survivors struggle to rebuild their lives. James remains devoted to Regulus, despite his siren nature. Sirius and Remus refuse to be parted. Pandora and Lily embrace their love, while Alex gives up his mermaid existence for Mary, leaving piracy behind to build a new life. But Barty is lost to his grief, consumed by vengeance and destruction. His rampage leaves him imprisoned, broken by the weight of his own actions. The sea may have burned, but love endured-even in the darkest depths.

When did you even fall in live with him? Did you love him? Such a strong word now wasn't it? Heavily Heavily inspired but the story betrothed! I don't have the Defenders of Berk Episodes so I took Inspo please please tell me if the writer isn't comfortable or want me to alter/take own thoughts story! Dagur x Y/N inspired by Last_present dragon(s) Bloodborne- Blood fury- predator cannibal? hunts down other dragons though can and does eat other meats! main stream fire plus red plasma blasts. grows in stream heat is versatile to water and land not as fast as the Nightfury- anger issues so it loses its cool- calling is kinda like a mix of Toothlesses echolocation and the Deathsons call. AU- predatory cannibal! also bonds with one or two thi GA they really like and doesn't let go of it really possessive and protective. Tidal- Sea fury- mix between, shark (The way she swims) Scauldron and Changewing. as in the acid spit and boiling water, dislike of eels isn't as scared of them like other dragosn they aren't poisonous, cna create Tidal waves this process however is taxing, and takes a while not on the spot tidla waves aren't huge but can be deadly AU- females are dominant mates when it comes to dragons like most things in the animal world. yes I know ki g of dragosn and what not but I like the hyena monarchy anyway, often scolds her little dragon killing/eating bf. Starlight(real ones know where I got this idea)- Skrill electrical charge and stream, highly protective. Eats eels mainly enjoys other foods and loves metals! Doesn't like people who get close to you plus she at one point when you got sad hunted people down. AU- Skrills often bond with some. irn or something could be anything from a sheep to a piece of metal they like. change of pov's often first person (I, we,) Y/N the daredevil this is explained in the story!

Clay "Dream" and George are supposed to be enemies. As princes of the Siren and Mermaid Kingdom would that be their duty. The two rival kingdoms have fought many wars against eachother before finally agreiing to a truce. But how and when will the two princes meet? And what will happen if the truce runs out? Which side will they take? A Dreamnotfound story about war and peace, royal and common, truth and lie and the power of love. - Updates atleast once a week - This is about their Minecraft skins, not the real life people. If any of the Dsmp members, including Dream and George, should be uncomfortable with this fic, I'll delete it immediatly. Cover was made by me. The picture is from buceoenmurcia.es/blog/ There are a lot of topics some people may not be comfortable with. I will pit Trigger Warnings above each chapter, but I can't promise I will always be able to get every single one right. Consider yourself warned. The characters don't belong to me, but the plot does. Don't steal it. Don't worry about the number of chapters, they're all really short, so just don't pay attention to it please.
