The Flight & the Fall follows the story of Icarus Dawnguard in his days of early adulthood. Following his newly obtained status of Knight, he attempts to find his place in the world and break free from the bonds of his father's reputation. But the weight of such a title is heavy on the bearer, and Icarus may just be burned yet...

His character is based loosely on the Greek mythology of Icarus, Apollo, and lessons of hubris.

I play Icarus in my D&D group's homebrew campaign, and originally started writing these snippets as I made up his backstory. That is until I ended up having way too much fun with this world and characters, and thought that it would all make for a great epic saga! The world of Nethedria is a creation of our DM, @coffeepaladin (on Twitter and Wattpad), with strong incorporation of classical D&D content.

Beyond the Books by LeeraIvy

This book is a collection of short stories based off the characters and events set forth in my previous ACOTAR fanfictions. The short stories in this book are all scenes that were either mentioned or not depicted in the fanfictions themselves. The stories will not follow a set order when added into this book, but I will be sure to provide the names of the characters featured in each story, as well as the title and chapter number(s) it takes place in at the start of each story. Please note that this book probably won't be updated regularly as it's just a fun side project for me to do in my spare time. Disclaimer: I do not own the ACOTAR series or the characters and places therein. I take credit only for this story and my original characters. These stories follow the storyline I have set out in my previous fanfictions. These stories may not fall in line with the actual storyline once the ACOTAR series is continued, and they will NOT be updated to match it. Warning: This book, while being a work of fiction, still deals with real elements. There will be chapters dealing with sexual content, abuse, depression, gore, PTSD, and other topics which some might find triggering. My ACOTAR FanFiction Series Order: 1) A Court of Flames and Shadows 2) A Court of War and Sacrifice 3) A Court of Hearts and Stone 4) A Court of Wings and Fate 5) A Court of Ash and Necromancy 6) A Court of Snow and Storms 7) A Court of Stars and Memories Extra: Beyond the Books *UNSOLICITED CRITICS MAY BE MUTED* see bio

Forsaken: The Chosen Trilogy - Book One by RKSHobbs

Before you begin this story, I must warn you first. This is not a tale of dashing knights and lovely damsels awaiting rescue. It is not the tale of happy endings, with birdsong and rides into the sunset. It is a tale of light magic and dark, of dragons and monsters, of heroes and villains and the thin line between them. This is the tale of being broken, being made stronger, and then being broken again. This is a story of love of heartbreak so great if feels like your chest has been hollowed out and scraped clean, like you would never feel anything else ever again, and of love so powerful it can make even the gods tremble. This is not a happy story, but it is our story, and it is the only one I know how to tell. ********************** FORSAKEN is the first tale in the Saga of Darkness, following six brothers and sisters who have been named the Chosen of the Gods, destined to fight a great darkness that threatens their world. But evil wears many faces, and it will take the efforts of all- Kryssa, Brannyn, Lanya, Kylee, Alyxen, and Reyce- to survive the harrowing trials to come. ********************** FORSAKEN is a completed novel, being posted as a serial. Books Two through Five in the Saga of Darkness are also complete. Chapters posted every Monday and Friday.

She was ripped away from him Drowned in the cold hands of death But he would do anything To have her back ** Once upon a time a winged girl fell in love with a winged prince. She was kind and beautiful but also young and naive. She gave her heart to him on a silver platter and her love cost her her life. Once upon a time a winged prince fell in love with a winged girl. He was the prince that was written in every fairytale, charming and loved by the people. But every prince is not the same. He took her for granted and in turn, destroyed the girl he loved. And once in a blue moon, they meet again. ** "Are you going to leave?" Again. The one word he couldn't bare to say as he looked away. "I'm not leaving." I reached up and held his face in my hands, forcing him to look at me. "Not in this life or the next, I'm not going anywhere."

Fallen Promise by -SIGBIN-

Language: English [COMPLETED] Hardships often prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny. Where sometimes, wrong choices takes us to the right places. Why is it that the world is small, and life is short. Why is it so hard to wish for the person whom you loved to just stay. I wished for a countless time while I was interrogated, hoping my wishes from Him will be permitted. Just to find out I'd be the only one to hold on the last memory for a thousand years. The mind may forget, but the heart will not. Years may have passed but the fire is still lit." #25 - heavenly #136 - drama filled Note: This is the first story I've ever written. Created: September 14, 2020 Completed: September 23, 2020
