WARNING: Reader's discretion advised. There is graphic content in this short story, as well as dark themes.

Nim Myungdae has been hunting the White Wraith all his life. The dangerous pirate lurks on Kyeku's waters, terrorizing cargo vessels and the Imperial Navy night after night.

The destroyed cargo hull was no different. Like every time before, a single survivor remained on the graveyard ship, picked up by Imperial scouts. In a catatonic state, Myungdae calls upon the Imperial seer Ve Aecha to open the survivor's mind and allow him to witness firsthand the massacre of the sailors by the White Wraith's hands.

Yet his own past, his own connection to the Wraith from years before lingers in the back of the Imperial Spymaster's thoughts. Under the flag of the Imperial Ouroboros, will Myungdae determine the secrets of the Wraith?

This short story surrounds the islands of Kyeku and its Imperium. There will be a novel set in this location in the future, following these same characters.

Venture to Uncertainty (#1) by tarishannon18
44 parts Complete
It's a deadly plan, and it goes like this: First, become a crew member of the Avourienne, a pirate ship notorious for its charismatic captain and wicked ways. Second, trick the ship's cunning strategist, famous for winning every game she's ever played, into believing a delicately spun lie. Third, get close enough to their tyrant king to put a knife through him. Deadly doesn't quite describe such a plan. In fact, inconceivable may be the better word. But Archer Kingsley has a knack for such things, and he feels he's going to pull off this plan with the ease he does most everything. Perhaps he's not quite aware of the absolute hell that's about to break loose, but truthfully, it's so much better that way. Because true adventures are born from uncertainty. * Cover by xxsoteria Mature themes you may encounter in this book: - harsh language (it's a pirate book) - violence (it's a pirate book) - sexual implications (it's a PIRATE book) However, this story does not violate any of Wattpad's mature guidelines and therefore is not marked as such.

60 parts Complete
Game of Thrones meets Pirates of the Caribbean in this thrilling tale of war, revenge, and adventure on the high seas! Lilyth the Red, an elite assassin, made a promise to her family. She failed to keep it. Now, she will stop at nothing to hunt down the pirates who wronged her-even posing as the champion of a goddess, brainwashing an army of cultists, and igniting a war so ruthless that it threatens to awaken the ancient horrors of the Drowned Sea. Erin Rose, a street urchin, only ever cared about picking pockets with her father. But that's no longer an option. Alone, the price of survival is costly, paid in flesh and brutality. The only question is whose blood will be on her hands: her own or her newfound friends. First Mate Jameson, a pirate-turned-storyteller, left a life of violence behind him. Or so he'd thought. But life on the sea is crueler than it has ever been. Trapped between sea monsters, cultists, and pirates, Jameson's stories might be his only salvation-and the ruin of the gods. War ravages the Drowned Sea, monsters rise from its depths, and heroes drown in them. In this world where land is sparse and gunpowder rules the sea, only the villains will survive. Lilyth is coming. No one is safe. All will drown.
Lost by lifhlv127
24 parts Ongoing
The experiments unfolded, scattering like fragile shards across the endless islands, their edges softened by time yet never truly lost. Memories unraveled like threads caught in the wind, slipping through grasping fingers, dissolving into nameless tides. And still, one cannot help but wonder-did they ever truly seek to reclaim them? Or were they meant to drift, untethered, between what was and what could have been? In this boundless sea, they remain-specters of something half-remembered, untouched by death, at least for now. But the past is never silent, only sleeping, buried beneath the hush of the waves. Beneath the weight of salt and centuries, echoes stir in the deep, restless and waiting. Forgotten names, forsaken dreams, lingering like footprints in shifting sands, erased and rewritten with each passing storm. Some chase the ghosts of what was, desperate to stitch together a story undone. Others flee, fearing that to remember is to break. Yet no soul can outrun the tide forever. The current pulls, unyielding, toward an inevitable reckoning. And when the sea finally sings their names once more, will they answer? Or will they, too, fade into the whispers of a world that was never meant to remember them? An arcane odyssey fanfiction
