Seeds of Sorcery
Prologue: The Prophecy In ancient times, it was said that a great power would arise, a power that would bring magic back to the forefront of the worlds. It was said that this power would be born of lightning and fire and that it would be wielded by a mage of great strength and courage. The world would face great upheaval and danger, but magic would be the key to survival. There will come those who will unite the kingdoms and empires, and they will bring an end to the darkness that has long shadowed the land. It was said that these mages would be the saviour of the worlds and that they would bring hope and light to all. But for many years, the prophecy remained unfulfilled. Magic seemed to be ending, few remained that could wield it. The darkness seemed to grow. The people slowly forgot and those that remembered lost hope, the kingdoms and empires fell and changed and with it brought chaos. But then, one day, a young girl was born in a small village far from the capital. She was born under the sign of lightning, and she had the power of magic within her. And so, the prophecy began. The first of them had arisen, and the journey to bring magic back had begun.
Who will Arise?
Waking up face down in mud sucks any day of the week. But coming around in the sludge of a strange realm...? Well, that just redefines a bad day altogether. Trapped in an unfamiliar world, sixteen-year-old Quinn is frustrated that none of the strange Tree People appreciate his urgency to get back home to earth. Now he is faced with a choice that could change the course of his life: escape and find his own way home, or stay and help them find the cause of the poison ravishing their world. When the mind-reader unlocks one of the ancient mysteries of the Tree People it points to the only way of saving them from annihilation: they have to find the Power of Light. What exactly that means, the mind-reader doesn't reveal, but his next warning comes as a shock to all present: finding the mysterious Power of Light can only be done with the help of the dangerous enemy tribe whom they once called family. Quinn soon finds himself a little more entangled in the lives of these gifted beings than he'd care to be. Especially after meeting Jazz: the feisty girl from his world who seems to be a regular visitor to the world of Zoay. To Quinn's constant frustration, the aqua-eyed pixie makes it clear that she's not there to make friends. On their journey they'll brave bizarre encounters in dangerous alien forests, while sacrificing pride and will for the survival of all. Along the way Quinn finds more than he ever thought to seek: purpose, fulfillment and love. When the Power of Light is finally found a devastating discovery is made: if all of Zoay-including their enemy-want to live and prosper, one must be willing to sacrifice their life.Complete

The Last Bargain
The sun hung low over the bustling town of Shinsenchou, casting an orange glow across the winding streets. Amidst the fading energy of the day, Shin Mirai, a young man plagued by self-doubt and a sense of failure, shuffled down a narrow alley. Shin had always felt like an outsider in Shinsenchou, a place where abilities were celebrated and power revered. His lack of any special talents had earned him the self-deprecating title of "Humanity's Greatest Loser." Shin's chance encounter with a group of thugs would soon set in motion a series of events that would challenge his perception of himself and the world around him. To the thug's surprise, he was able to perfectly mimic the fighting techniques of the town guards, effortlessly defending himself. This unexpected display of skill piqued the interest of Zento Dassou, the heir to the prestigious Dassou clan, who had been struggling to master his family's signature technique. Meanwhile, in the Kasetsu clan stronghold, Raito Kasetsu grappled with his own philosophical crisis. Blessed with the ability to detect lies, Raito had grown disillusioned with the world, believing that the future was nothing but a series of false promises. His nihilistic worldview was challenged, however, when reports of disturbing phenomena began to surface - entire villages vanishing without a trace, leaving behind only perfect, empty voids. In a tense and awe-inspiring ceremony, Shin, Raito, and Zento combined their abilities and knowledge, successfully reforging the Divine Covenant. The divine judgment ceased, and the disappeared lands and people began to return, though altered by their experience. Shin, Raito, and Zento, forever changed by their shared ordeal, parted ways, each facing an uncertain but promising future, bound by the renewed covenant between the mortal and divine realms.Complete
