In the lands of Europa, the unpredictable magic of necromancy had been banned by every kingdom. However, a rebellious queen in Span defies the edict by summoning an army of the undead to wreak havoc on the living.

Her wicked magic also siphons the nourishment of Europa's fertile lands. With urgency, the kingdoms send their finest warriors and mages to kill the necromancer noble...only for them to never return. The desperation has the kingdom of Engla send their last two hopes: Garth, a battle-hardened knight and William, a blind but powerful bard with a golden voice.

During their journey, personal motivations are revealed. One seeks glory, while the other seeks vengeance.

Will their goals be enough to help them overcome the Skeleton Queen or will they also fall to her magic?

Moonshine by EdsGryff

𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐫𝐝 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 '𝐀𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞' 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 'I love you. I'll find you. I love you.' The lengths one can go for love. The sacrifices one can make for love. The tortures one can endure for love. Marriage takes effort, and no one will find out just how much effort it takes like Sanya Pevensie will. Quests and transformations and mortality, and struggles painful enough that the Sanya who had been a Princess could never have imagined. Grief drives even the most wise of people to rashness, and no one understands that more than Edmund Pevensie does. Brash brothers, compatriots that were once enemies, and a Narnia that the Edmund of the Golden Age would not have recognised. But marriage and grief are not the forté for all. Susan prefers solemnity, and brooding in silence. Lucy thinks listening is all she can do, in her little body. Peter must protect his land, damned be the pretty dark eyes of the Prince who had stolen his home. And how easy humans are to manipulate? No one knows that better than the Faerie Queen. - 𝗪𝗔𝗥𝗡𝗜𝗡𝗚𝗦: Dark themes, violence, strong language, nonconsensual voyeurism, self-harm, attempted suicide, sexual scenes, mental and physical torture, use of f-slur, unintentional animal abuse, dubious sexual consent, reflection on past trauma, memory of attempted rape and assault, murder. . . . . . #3 in #narniaau (27/06/2022) #7 in #medievalfantasy (27/06/2022) #90 in #faeries (8/8/2022) •••• The Alliance Series, as found on @EdsGryff: 'Alliance' 'The Heirs' 'Moonshine' 'Fairytale?' ••••

The Chronicles of Onyx: Volume I by Raven_DarkHeart

***2024 Watty Awards Shortlisted*** https://www.wattpad.com/list/1642504418 **Action/Adventure Second place winner of The Fabulous Writer Awards ** War. For as long as memory serves, it has consumed the lands of Druzatria, stripping away freedom and peace from the kindred who dwell there, claiming countless innocent lives as casualties. For Onyx, life has been blood and sand. She is a gladiator, made for battle, bound by chains. She was forged in the Queen's arenas, raised not as a daughter but as a weapon, honed by violence and bloodshed. Abandoned by her father and gripping to the fading memory of her mother; she's learned to bury any weakness deep, to survive at all costs. Though her power rivals that of the strongest, she is bound-imprisoned by the Queen's merciless hold, wielded only as a tool of destruction. The arena has sculpted her into an unbreakable warrior, yet she is locked in a relentless struggle with herself. Haunted by the urge for something more. Until an Orcish Halfbreed enters the pit, the clash of their blades ignites a fate neither could foresee-a fight that will alter the course of her fate forever. Setting both on a path neither expected. Will she fall further under the Queen's iron grip, or rise and claim the one thing she has fought for her entire life? Will she lose everything she has fought to keep? And is she willing to pay in blood?

The Blood Witch by RavenMoonspark

When you come from the bloodthirsty gods and goddesses, you become bloodthirsty yourself. When they force you to feel their power, or either make your life a hellish experience in order to get what they want from you, chances are, you'll do what they tell you to. Bloodthirsty gods. Painful games that force people to fight to the death in order to get a small chance of survival. Love that turns tragic. Mythical beings who are all very much real. And of course, lots and lots of chaos and magic. If this sounds interesting, check this story out. You will meet the Blood Witch, forced to kill for the bloodthirsty gods who have taken her captive. You'll meet the warlocks who are kind, not evil, and all want to protect their friends and family. You'll be faced with the gods of this world, who are all very twisted and demented, a bit more evil than you'd think originally.

Dark Divide ✓ [WLW] by ZoeAlamort

Blamed for a lethal disease she did not cause, a reclusive necromancer sets out to cure the sickness and save a town before any more victims perish. *** Draped in a cloak of blood and deemed a wicked monster, Evylyn is an immortal necromancer, feared enough to silence any mention of her name. As the accused source of a deadly disease, paired with her infamy in necromancy, she avoids the town of Ensceas at all costs. But Evylyn's fate is decided by a coin toss, and she's forced to break free from her chains of destiny, nearly paying with her life. She's rewarded by a bounty hunter tracking her down, hungry to give her the sanguinary death she deserves. In her eleventh hour, a fellow demigoddess gives her two things: a second chance, and a way to weasel her way into the hearts of those that despise her. Simply, she must remedy the incurable disease that she allegedly caused, preferably before the entire town of Ensceas falls victim to its sickness. Thankfully, Evylyn's infamy didn't come from thin air, and if there's anyone that can rival death, it's her. -----　❈　----- INCLUDES: ❈ Sapphic demigoddesses ❈ Badass sunshine x soft-hearted grump ❈ Magical, mysterious malady ❈ Cute baby animals FEATURED ON: ❈ @highfantasy Featured High Fantasy Stories, @OpenNovellaContest's Longlist ❈ @Fantasy, @Romance, @highfantasy, @darkfantasy, @mythandlegend, @StoriesUndiscovered 𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝘿𝙖𝙩𝙚: 02/01/2023 𝙀𝙣𝙙 𝘿𝙖𝙩𝙚: 4/17/2023 𝙒𝙤𝙧𝙙 𝘾𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙩: 28k 𝙂𝙚𝙣𝙧𝙚𝙨: High Fantasy, Romance, Adventure 𝘾𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧: @Xaprith © 2023 [First Edition]

Queen of the Beasts✅ by b00klover09

👑1 in Queen Series👑 (Warning: Dark themes & sexual assault) I will have you...all of you, Esmerleda," he said as his eyes raked over my body. I tried to get away. His other arm wrapped around my waist, pulling me closer. "No you wont!" I spat angrily at him, my body gradually welcoming in his warmth. I hate him. "I will," he claimed, his smile making the scar on his face look even more fierce. "I will have your body, heart, soul. Everything," he growled, as I watched his eyes zero in on my lips. "Don't you dare!" I panicked. I shoved with all my might at his chest. He let me go quickly, making me almost fall into the table. "Don't you ever touch me again!" He chuckled as he grabbed my glass of wine. "Till our wedding night." ******* Esmerelda is devastated when the Lycan kingdom demolishes her own. Seeing almost everyone she knows and love killed right before her eyes, she expects the same fate.

She is forced to become their Queen, their beast of a King's wife, and forced to live among them. Will she survive the brutal world that they live in, or will it be to much for her mundane mind to handle? *Cover: @17Serenity **Completed & Unedited

The Purple Eyed Girl by pienenspike

Thousands of centuries ago humans, vampires, and werewolves lived together in harmony, considering one equal to the other. Ruled by a council of three kings, with one from each fullblood race, peace endured for quite some time. All of it was destroyed when many years later the new vampire and werewolf kings both wanted to rule over the kingdom alone. A massive war broke out between the vampires and the werewolves and millions of lives were lost. In a last attempt to stop the war one hundred years later, the land was divided into three kingdoms, the vampires, humans and werewolves. The borders were shut, crossbreeding was forbidden since it created halfbloods and demons and each kingdom was led by the king of their respective race. In secret, however, it was decided that the human king would watch over them all to prevent another war from ever happening again. Since the human kingdom laid inbetween the other two, the humans invented technology to keep all the races at bay and trained the warriors of their army as skilled hunters. As time and generations went by, the kingdoms became more isolated and the common humans forgot that supernatural beings even existed. However, the war had never truly been resolved so the hatred that the vampires and werewolves had for each other endured. When a mysterious murder occurs, chaos breaks out within the kingdoms. A throne must be taken, blood must be shed, a choice must be made and all must be answered by a girl with purple eyes.
