The Chronicles of Elysium: The Shadow's Embrace by Tyler6318

In the mystical land of Elysium, where magic weaves through every leaf and whispers secrets to the wind, a darkness begins to stir. For centuries, the balance between light and shadow has been maintained by the guardians of Elysium, a group of powerful sorcerers sworn to protect the realm from evil. But when a long-forgotten prophecy resurfaces, foretelling the rise of a malevolent force known only as the shadow, the fate of Elysium hangs in the balance. As whispers of dark omens spread like wildfire, a young orphan named Lyra finds herself thrust into a world of magic and danger. With nothing but a mysterious amulet and her wits to guide her, Lyra embarks on a perilous journey to uncover the truth behind the prophecy and stop the shadow from consuming the realm. Along the way, she allies herself with a ragtag group of misfits: a brooding warrior with a haunted past, a cunning thief with a heart of gold, and a wise old sage with secrets of his own. Together, they must navigate treacherous forests, ancient ruins, and deadly creatures as they race against time to thwart the shadow's sinister plans. But as the darkness closes in around them, Lyra discovers that the true power to save Elysium lies within herself - if only she can unlock it in time. Filled with breathtaking magic, epic battles, and unforgettable characters, "The Chronicles of Elysium: The Shadow's Embrace" is a spellbinding tale of courage, friendship, and the enduring strength of the human spirit in the face of darkness.

He did not move from the spot where he stood. He did not hear Jace calling out to him. He did not notice the key slip from his fingers, making a little clang on the cobblestone floor. The only thing that crossed his mind were the words that he whispered out loud.

Each step of the way, Rayna learns about who she is and finds out secrets that happened long before her. Along the way, she runs into old friends and meets some new as well as enemies that she cannot see. As her eighteenth birthday draws near, she waits for when she can take back the throne, but as she has come to learn first-hand, nothing ever goes as planned. ***Completed on Wattpad; May 8, 2020*** ***Published on Wattpad: January 21, 2020*** ***Completed: December 26, 2019*** ***Created: February 28, 2019***

Life and Death and Love in Between by DreamersWriters

In celebration of Book 6 finally being released on the English servers, I have a book for my favorite boy, Idia Shroud! Should mention, I have this as a series, and the first book isn't written, because I need Book 7 before I write it. Anyway! Here is the summary! Should mention, I have finished reading Book 6 on the Japanese servers and this will have spoilers for it. This book will have a pause since Book 7 is being worked on and if their unique magics are powerful and interesting, I would like to use it. And I'll adjust the book to reflect changes as well. After meeting the Guardians of Light and returning home, Idia was hoping for a break from everything until his best friend and player 2, Proserpina Ver, comes to visit him. He is grateful to see her, but she soon departs to their home to fulfill a tradition first started by the First Shroud and Ver. However, Proserpina wishes to change the spell's tradition to ensure Idia is never alone, even if she'll suffer the consequences. Ortho departs to help her with his freshmen friends and keyblade wielders. Idia rushes to his home to stop her with his friends. Can Idia finally play the protagonist and save her and stop a tragedy?

Kingdom of Blood and Ruin by Koi_Fevr

For years, Zahara has kept a low profile in the bustling city of Elynsi, the capital of her once-beloved kingdom. To survive, she has resorted to picking pockets, a skill honed out of necessity. Little does she know that her next target would change the course of her life forever - the crowned prince of Vandrea himself, Caelum. When Zahara's nimble fingers find their way into the prince's pockets, she is caught red-handed. However, instead of facing punishment, Caelum presents her with a proposition: gather information on the growing rebel forces, and her theft against the crown will be excused. With her life hanging in the balance, Zahara has no choice but to accept. As Zahara navigates the treacherous world of espionage, her path intertwines with that of Xander, the charismatic leader of the rebellion. Despite her initial distrust, she finds herself drawn to his cause and his unwavering determination to overthrow the tyrannical King Darius. Torn between her loyalties, Zahara's heart begins to waver, and her feelings for Xander blossom into something deeper. Meanwhile, Caelum, once a staunch supporter of his father's regime, questions the brutal methods employed to maintain control. Zahara's presence awakens a defiant spirit within him, and he begins to see the injustice that has plagued Alynthi for far too long. As the tensions between the rebels and the crown reach a boiling point, a series of public whippings and executions unfold, exposing the true horrors of Darius's reign. As the war rages on, secrets are unveiled, and loyalties are tested.

Le Chat et Le Serpent by Alex_J_Winter

Marinette begins to unravel with her own guilt and wavering direction of her heart and it starts to affect her duties as Ladybug. This story takes place over an extended period of time and will have a significant focus on the rings. The movement of what we learn about the rings will aid to demonstrate the four basic parts of the story. 1. The effect of the rings. Please note that the first part (which is transitioning as I type this summary) is highly focused on "setting the stage". Playing with thematic elements, we build an understanding of the actions of our characters to come. Around chapter 9, we begin to see a shift of style. 2. The tale(s) of the rings of the Graham de Vanily Twins - family relations 3. The ongoing history of the rings 4. Who do we save? ****All characters are over 18 at the beginning of the story
