The Gatekeeper follows the lives of two detectives, Coleske and Parker whose lives are changed forever when their two separate cases prove to be related and they soon find out an ancient horror has been released into the world. From there, each must take the path that fate has chosen and dare to fulfill their destinies.

"I heard a cry of despair from the skies. It was the sound of sorrow, a warning of sinister tidings. The tears of the ferryman do not fall for foolish reasons. He stood on his boat with his bony hands on his stuff and from the hollowness of his eyes came an unspeakable tragedy. His boat was empty with no souls, as if they had all fled leaving their golden coins behind. It was a carpet of glitter untended, and the flow of Styx went as slow as the journey to the underworld itself, and then it was frozen."All Rights Reserved

The Rise of the Dragon Realms by howlerwolf467

In a world where myths come alive and ancient prophecies shape the fate of entire realms, dragons reign supreme as creatures of both wonder and fear. Their scales shimmer like molten metal, their wings carry them across continents, and their breath can incinerate cities. Yet, the age of dragons is in peril, not only from the greed of mortals but from forces far darker than anyone could imagine. The Rise of the Dragon Realms is set in a high-fantasy world, where the Dragon Realms-ancient territories ruled and protected by the dragons-are under threat from a malevolent force that seeks to enslave all life. This force is led by the Dark One, a sorcerer of unimaginable power who has harnessed forbidden magic from the Netherworld. His ambition is not just to rule the world but to twist the natural order, making dragons his slaves and turning the world into a wasteland of his creation.

The Age of Solace: The Silver Wolf by -loneXwolf97-

Volume 1 of the "Age of Solace" series. (Part 1 of 4). A serious dark-fantasy story. Descriptive violence and gore, as well as dark themes (Rated M, no lemons present). Peace. Conflict. War. Bloodshed. This is the way of things, and this is what happened between the dragons and mankind. Once they were allies. Man was ever growing and learning, while dragons were their guardians, watching over them. But mankind was greedy, and from that greed bred betrayal towards their great allies. In times long ago, dragon and man worked together to rid their realms of the demonic presence that once invaded their lands. Together, they defeated that enemy. But now, dragons are near extinct and the demonic menace has returned. There are humans that possess abilities that allow them to fight back, but it is not enough. Such humans have banded together, in a group called Corvin's blades. They hope to be able to defeat their enemy without the aid of dragons this time... but there is more to all of this than anyone understands. This story follows multiple youthful characters as they not only aid in the fight against the demonic threat, but learn and grow as they discover more about the lands they live in and of themselves. Views on dragons are changing, demons and spirits are invading, and two individuals are in the center of everything that is happening. Was it fate and destiny... or choice and coincidence? *Rated M for descriptive violence and gore, as well as dark themes* * Chapters to be updated* *Cover art was made by myself.

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.

Weaver's Curse by EClaireH

Indeara Vef can't remember anything. Quite literally. Everything before she woke up in the middle of nowhere is a blank slate. Perhaps the Weavers will provide a clue about her foggy past. Kaedwyn Telare-ess is on the run and has been since her banishment from her homeland when she was young. She doesn't know who she can trust, or even who is pursuing her, or why. Toby Reganne refuses to accept the path of arranged marriage that his family has picked for him. That snobby noblewoman can go jump in a lake. He'll find the life of adventure he's always wanted. Sedine Malachite lives in hiding, waiting for the day when the rest of the world finally declares her dead, and she can move freely in her home country again. Isaan is cursed. It wasn't hard to figure out. Not everyone wakes up some days only remembering fragments about themselves. The problem is, he can't even remember who might have cursed him. Two parties set out to find the mysterious Weavers; one led by a distant memory from what can only be another lifetime, the other led by a mysterious voice speaking in their leader's head.
