Born with wings that should not exist, Evanora  (ev-uh-NOR-uh)
has spent her life hiding in the shadows of Illyria. Concealed by her mother's desperate invention - a dark paste to mask the white leather of her birth - she learned early that survival meant silence, invisibility, and secrets.

But when grief, fear, and fury spark a forbidden light within her, Evanora's secret can no longer remain buried. Hunted by her own people, she finds herself swept into the heart of the Night Court, where power, danger, and beauty are entwined.

There she meets the Shadowsinger - unreadable, relentless, a warrior who sees too much. Tasked with training her, he becomes both her harshest trial and her most unexpected tether. Yet as whispers of war rise across Prythian, and the Autumn Court stirs schemes that could burn the realm to ash, Evanora must confront what she is, what she fears, and the truth of the bloodline her mother died to protect.

In a court of fire and darkness, of love and betrayal, light may be her greatest weapon.
Or her doom.

☽✧ Lost In Prythian ✧☾ {Rhysand x OC} by LadyLumy
24 parts Ongoing Mature
Estelle Beaumont just wanted a peaceful hike on her last day of vacation. Instead, one ill-starred moment of curiosity leaves her miraculously stranded in the fictional world of Prythian--a faerie realm full of ruthless court drama, rampant misogyny, and enough deadly magic to keep anyone up at night. Armed with foreknowledge that's only helpful when it isn't actively trying to get her killed, Estelle quickly discovers that living through the story of ACOTAR is far less fun and far more perilous when it's her own basic-ass, untrained mortal life on the line. Her plan is simple: keep her hands off of the plot and survive long enough to find a way back to the family and love she left behind. But the so-called "Mother" clearly has other plans for Estelle, forcing her to confront an unsettling truth--that her role here in Prythian might be far greater than that of a passive observer. As Estelle reluctantly abandons her original plan, uneasy alliances form, old wounds reopen, and fractured trust begins to mend. Love, loss, and scars of the past converge as Estelle slowly starts to see that the family she thought she'd lost might take a new shape, and that the life she left behind might be the only reason she's prepared for the fight ahead. But the cost of shaping Prythian's future--and her own--might be greater than she can bear. After all, it's a future that was never meant to be hers to begin with. And this is all that damned Cauldron's fault... ☆⊱──────⊰ ☽✧☾ ⊱──────⊰☆ A/N: This fanfiction is purely self-indulgent. If you don't like self-insert/iseki like tropes were an original character who read the books ends up in the fictional world as the new main character, you might want to skip this. Somethings will stay very familiar, others will diverge completely, and I plan to add extra world building along the way. Slowburn romance.

Born in the shadow of Amarantha's brutal reign, 𝑵𝒆𝒑𝒉𝒆𝒍𝒆 has never seen the world beyond temple walls. Raised in isolation at the foot of the mountains in Cesere, her life has been one of ritual, restraint, and restless longing for answers she's longed stopped asking for. But when Hybern's forces descend on her temple months after Amarantha's fall, she is forced to watch her sanctuary burn - and with it, the only family she's ever known. Rescued by her court's High Lord, she is offered refuge in the House of Wind, a place where ancient magic breathes over stone and scarred wings silhouette a starlit sky. But grief leaves her hollow, and dreams of blood-stained snow and a tether to something unknown stalk her sleep in the library beneath the House. As war builds on the horizon, Nephele draws the attention of Rhysand's Inner Circle. His spymaster, 𝑨𝒛𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒍, cannot understand why his shadows seek her out. His general, 𝑪𝒂𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒂𝒏, is haunted by the sense that he's known her far longer than he should. His second-in-command, Amren, scents forgotten secrets slumbering beneath her skin. His cousin and confidant, Mor, watches as the threads of fate weave together despite the unraveling caused by Nephele's arrival. But something stirs in her blood. A power she never knew. A truth she was never told - buried beneath a life built on lies. To stop what is coming, Nephele must uncover what was taken from her. She must decide what - and who - she's willing to fight for before the Cauldron comes to full power. And what it will take to awaken the 𝒘𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓 within her heart. ═══════ 𝑨𝑪𝑶𝑴𝑨𝑭 - ... 𝒔𝒍𝒐𝒘-𝒃𝒖𝒓𝒏 𝒓𝒐𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆 ⋆⁺₊❅. 𝘤𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘢𝘯 𝘹 𝘧𝘦𝘮!𝘰𝘤 𝘹 𝘢𝘻𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘭 ⁺.❆₊⋆𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵
The Crown's Jewel by ATConner
84 parts Ongoing Mature
Bridgeton/Pride and Prejudice meets Azriel our beloved Shadowsinger and this author will tell the story of a Prideful noble lady and a spymaster who hates her. Azriel, the battle-worn Shadowsinger of the Night Court, has spent centuries in war and darkness. He has no patience for noble games, no desire for politics. But when Rhysand arranges his marriage to the infamous Jewel of Prythian-an effort to mend ties with the Spring Court and keep Azriel from dangerous affections-he is forced into a world he despises. Liora, daughter of the Dawn and Spring Courts, is everything he is not: a highborn beauty, the perfect courtly lady, untouched by war. To Azriel, she is spoiled, vain, and frivolous. To Seraphine, he is a brute-cold, scarred, and lacking any grace beyond the battlefield. Forced into marriage, they are trapped in a battle of wills, neither willing to bend. But peace in Prythian is fragile, and war is never far. Whispers of old enemies emerging from the shadows threaten the stability of the courts. As political tensions rise, Azriel and Liora find themselves at the center of a deadly game-where their union may be the only thing holding Prythian together. For beneath Liora's silks and diamonds lies a mind as sharp as his blades. And beneath Azriel's shadows and scars is a longing he never dared to name. Enemies by fate. Lovers by scandal. Can a warrior of darkness and a lady of starlight survive the storm ahead-or will their pride and prejudice tear them, and Prythian, apart?
