Kronul was a fantastical world where humans lived, elemental spirits roamed the lands and dragons ruled the skies. But one man's magic covered Kronul in Irradiation, plunging the world into the first Irradiated World. Every civilization fractured. Some clung to the ashes of their former glory and attempted to rebuild. Others took advantage of the chaos to create new nations.
But one thing was clear to every living being on the planet: the Irradiation changed humanity. Their life spans were reduced drastically, severely stunting the wider population growth. At the same time, a significant portion of humanity had their souls mixed with the souls of other animals, as well as elemental spirits. Those who underwent this saw mass physical changed, and were eventually given the name "Demi-Humans".
Time continued moving for the world, despite the challenges and changes it's inhabitants faced. Now, three hundred years after the first Irradiated Winter, Nic Verilo stands as the youngest descendant of the man who first unleashed Irradiation. Fueled by his desire to free his family from the shame of their bloodline, Nic sets into motion plans created by his ancestor to fix what had been broken. But the first step is often the hardest, and in his case, Nic must learn a magic ability from someone else before he can begin. With the unwitting help of a girl named Aria Towsend, Nic begins the journey that will define his life and the lives of every descendant of his.

Jovan's Gaze
Jovan's world is small and medieval. It was once ruled by the good kingdom of Esis in the south, and the evil kingdom of Krona in the north. Those kingdoms are now fifteen years gone, victims of magic that escaped the control of the mages who wielded it in a final, devastating war. Now the land of Theris is empty and scarred by plagues of magic; most of the war's survivors, people from both kingdoms, marched eastward into the endless desert in a desperate bid for a new start. They were never seen again. Jovan did not go with them; he lives quietly among a small village of survivors. Jovan also has an obsession; he has become enamored with Skyreach Keep, the seat of power of the old Dark Lords of Krona. After visiting the barren keep too many times, his village casts him out and banishes him to the endless desert. There he must find a new life, or better yet, wither and die under the scorching sun. Jovan marches east, but he does not die. He comes across a small building, filled with technology which is thousands of years ahead of his own. The people who work there speak a foreign yet strangely familiar language; it sounds ever so slightly like the dark tongue of Krona, the language of the enemy. But these strange people know where Jovan comes from, and they understand his language. They are, after all, his descendants, and they trace their ancestors back thousands of years... to an exodus which for Jovan is only fifteen years past. Jovan has walked out of the desert and into the future. And something evil has followed him.Complete

As shadows loom once again over Middle-earth, Melisane and Elrond must navigate the growing darkness, all while facing the uncertain futures that their hearts and dreams reveal. Will their newfound connection withstand the threats closing in, or will the starlight of their bond be consumed by the shadows? _ "You sleep coiled; tightly wound. Hands made fists beneath the pillows, clenched above cotton sheets. You are at war, even in your dreams, cenedril af fae nín. Let me help you."
Unproven
SHADOW IS AZH'NAHN, A POWERLESS MAGE born into a culture that prides itself in sharing the earth's powers. When he chooses a life of voluntary exile to preserve his family's honor, Shadow receives a mysterious call to witness the unearthing of kotrakoy, treacherous telepathic beasts with four wings and four rows of teeth. As he watches their unholy resurrection with great horror, kotrakoy open their minds to his and offer a glimpse into what life would be like wielding a mage's powers. As Shadow races to warn his people of the impending threat, he discovers a mysterious Trayki woman hanging from the trees and on the verge of death. Uncertain what to do, Shadow initially hesitates to rescue this woman whose people embrace technology and eschew his culture. As Shadow tends to her glider crash wounds, the earth unites them in a soul bond, a sacred union that gives Shadow an unerring duty to protect and preserve her life. And that duty will be fraught with peril: Trayki troops begin bombing Hiwalani villages and while losses mount, magic evolves and Shadow's people lose their power. The Hiwalani must rely on inexperienced youth to master the new magic and stop enemy attacks. Desperate to save their people, few make any progress at all. Only the outcast azh'nahn seems to understand it - and very few trust his judgment. When Shadow believes he's unlocked the solution, it involves empowering the most deadly kotrakoy and risking the complete annihilation of his people. While his solution sounds reasonable in theory, there is no time to test it - it's UNPROVEN.Complete
Wings
*Wings Book 1 If you are expecting a nice main character who does as she's told and is the picture of virtue... you're reading the wrong book. But if you're expecting someone like me... mischievous, clever, and rather bad, you've come to the right place. I know you're expecting a summary, so I'll tell you this; I'm not who you think I am. Humans have created their own stories about me - well, about us, but I'll get into that later - but those stories are mostly corruptions of what really happened. They even get the names wrong! Well, mostly. The others don't know I'm writing this, but if they find out... heh, heh, it's not going to be pretty. Don't tell them, okay? Well, as I was saying, I was adopted into my family, the Altheans. They live in a shining city, Althea, and all follow the rules of this guy called Orvin. I would object, only he's the one who rescued me from the ruins of the human village I was trapped in in the first place, so I can't complain. For some strange reason, he's banned us all from going to Earth for two hundred years (though I didn't exactly follow that rule) and for some equally mysterious reason, he's decided to let us go down there again. This is my story.Complete
The First Perspective
A man who conquered everything-power, wealth, strength-yet found himself at the peak of nothingness. Bored of a world he had already mastered, he took a final leap... only to open his eyes again. Reborn as Aren Wolfhart in a world of mana, nobles, and bloodline legacies, he is no lost soul seeking redemption-he is a ruler in the making. With his past-life intellect and an unshakable will, he will carve his own path to dominance. In a world where strength dictates fate, Aren will either rise as an unstoppable force or bring ruin to all who stand in his way. Power is everything. And this time, he refuses to be bound by fate. I'm Eren-or at least, I used to be. Now, I'm Aren. Death came for me in a way too strange to explain, yet here I stand again. Why? To find purpose in a world that's ruthless, where survival demands more than strength-it demands the mind of a predator. Every step I take is precise, every move cloaked in shadows, because power isn't given, it's taken. I don't care about what others think. Their judgments are noise-weakness dressed as opinion. I am cunning, ruthless, and unyielding. I blend into the background like a ghost, watching, calculating. Emotions? I buried them long ago. Logic and resolve are my weapons. I'm here to ascend, and nothing-no one-will stand in my way. If you dare block my path, you won't find me-I'll leave only a ghost behind, a smudge in your memory that warns you of what came and disappeared without a trace. There's no room for mercy in this climb, only cold ambition and unbreakable will.
