The dark and painful story of an unforgiving, cruel city which seeks to crush all those who live in it.. To those uninitiated, ''Altstadt.'' Standing atop, noblemen from the First War look down upon peasants who are banished from birth to rot in a fetid wasteland. Belial, one of these peasants, is a ''black swan'' among his peers, hiding something dastardly deep within his very self. The second point of view, Belial's direct inverse, Servius Crowfeather. A noble duke from an esteemed family who claws desperately at the murk to take back that which was stolen from him so long ago... The calm still and raging fire of both Belial and Servius' dreams have the power to shift the course of Alstadt's recluse history forevermore... Yet the question remains. Will they?

From The Ashes by EllisBeddoe
23 parts Ongoing Mature
"This is the truth, guarded by the ignorant and blind. This is the truth of our world and our history. The gods have abandoned us. And it is our fault." Two towns set alight, and unrest continues to stir the air, even after the ashes have settled. These events are not coincidental, nor will they be the last tragedy to befall the dark, bloody and war-stricken world of Tayrul. All know it, and all suspect, rightly, that these events are only the opening of a gate, allowing something much bigger and far more sinister to befall the already ailing world. Arvayn Bryvaris, a mysterious half-elven thief/assassin, decides to cut ties with a deadly assassin's guild in an attempt to free himself of the vile shadow of the abusive and manipulative Assassin King, and strives to clear his name of the blood of his past. He strikes a deal to steal a strange talisman for a Curseborn named Locke in exchange for his freedom. Only for this decision to - instead of end his path of struggles and strife as he intended - lead him down another. One to something far more deadly than he could have ever even imagined... Meanwhile, Fenris Alivar, a monster hunter known as a Duskguide from the city of Loridge, is pulled into investigating the town burnings, one of which resulted in the death of his mentor. Found evidence points to the Heirs Of The Phoenix, a sinister cult that plagues his past, as well as a vampiric child called Cherlen. Fenris is tasked with the interrogation of the vampire, and the apprehension of the cult. All at the tremendous price of facing his past demons in an all or nothing effort to avenge the brutal deaths of his loved ones, at the hands of his own blood.

WATTYS 2021 WINNER - PARANORMAL Olivia Porter is well acquainted with death- or so she thought. With the passing of her only friend, she's given more than she bargained for when the estranged and mysterious Lee Noble enters her life. Lee brings with him more than his bad attitude and mysterious past. He's Olivia's gateway to a dark and terrifying underworld she never knew existed. The Edifice; a dimension parallel to their own, separated for a very good reason. It's a world of magic, where warlocks, fiends and monsters walk the streets in strained coexistence. Stranded in a foreign land at the mercy of its citizens, Olivia has no choice but to accept the help of Otis- a deity masquerading as a fickle young man. With seven days to escape the consequences of the deity's contract, Olivia's humanity is on a perilous countdown. Otis promises her the world if she can hold out- while Lee will sacrifice anything to see her gone. Because Otis's gift to her is worth dying for... and all of the Edifice knows it. - cover by @newsies- ~90,000 Words Mature and Horror Themes CONTENT WARNINGS for death, family trauma, adult language, kidnap, coercion, drug and alcohol abuse, suicidal ideation, mental illness, graphic violence and references to racism and homophobia..
