This is the prequel to my book, The Mirror, which is on Amazon. You'll have no trouble keeping up with this, even if you haven't read The Mirror :)

Kinheal is the daughter of Zalta, and princess of a kingdom that has not yet formed. The children of each royal family must now go to the court of the gods in Orion, which will determine who they will marry to continue their family line. Kinheal will not stay long, for her adventure will be a more important one; she must find the Mirror and either use its magic or bring it home.

Even though the young princess has decided to avoid Orion's courting season, she is accompanied by two young suitors on her journey. With the Prince of the Gods and his enemy both vying for her hand, Kinheal has a difficult decision to make. Does she focus on her goal, or let herself be blinded by the charms of the beautiful god of storms?All Rights Reserved

The Rose and the Sinbound by KrystaFae

Rhosyn's Journal Entry: I find myself turning to ink and parchment as if words can fortify the brittle pieces of my heart. There is something in the rhythm of verse, in the gentle pulse of poetry, that soothes the ache no court's promises can touch. "In shadows deep where secrets lie, A rose blooms still, beneath cold sky. Her thorns are sharp, her petals frail, Against the storm, her courage pale." Do I write of myself, or of some other creature trapped in a story not her own? Sometimes it feels as though I am the shadow and the rose both, caught between a world that demands obedience and a heart that refuses to yield. How bitter it is to dream of freedom while knowing my wings are clipped, bound by alliances that do not care for the scars they leave behind. "A crown of thorns, a silken mask, A future bound in hollowed glass. Yet hope persists, a trembling flame, Defiant still, against the pain." Hope. A foolish word. A fragile thing that clings to the edges of my soul, like a candle flickering in the winds. I write these lines as though hope is a friend, but truly, it's a ghost-a haunting I cannot rid myself of. In the quiet hours of dawn, it murmurs, stirs, and breathes life back into me. It is a torment and a salvation, this hope. "One step, one breath, one whispered plea, Against the night, she will not flee. In silence kept, her song unfolds, A tale unwritten yet, untold." Perhaps there is a power in words, in laying bare the fragile threads that hold me together. To write is to bleed without consequence, to free myself, if only for a moment, from the binds of the court. And so, I keep writing.

The Dragon's Call by _casuallycruel13

In Saileora, power hums beneath the soil, ancient and untamed. Seeker Wrain, princess and heir to a throne that feels more like a cage, has always sensed it, both around and inside her. But the whispers of that hidden force - the stirring of magic, the heartbeat of the land - have never explicitly belonged to her. Until now. When an impossible void tears through the quiet countryside, leaving her kingdom's fields in ruins and the skies heavy with shadows, Seeker is thrust into a world of secrets she never asked to inherit. The dragons - the ancient gods of her people - are no longer the benevolent protectors of legend. One of them, Ascklees, has risen from his grave, burning with a hatred that could ignite all of Saileora. The land calls for heroes, but Seeker has never been one. Not the fierce warrior like her childhood friend Calix Clearbow, who walks in the light with unwavering bravery, nor the brilliant Dr. Rockbrow who seems to bend the world to her will. No, Seeker is something else entirely. A quiet storm, an unread book filled with power she does not yet understand. But there are others like her. Other Omnicircies - rare wielders of all the Subcirces, whose power has the potential to shape the fate of kingdoms. And they are waiting, hidden among the peaks of Vidya, the shores of Blissia and Brashar, and the deserts of Sadya. Only together can they confront the gathering storm, but first, they must be found. In The Dragon's Call, nothing is as it seems. Every smile hides a secret, every whisper holds a danger. Power calls to those who dare to listen, but power demands a price - one that not everyone will survive. Are you ready to heed the call?
