Magic is dying and it's wielders along with them. The Church of the Valiant Sun seeks to control its use entirely and that means all mages must be conscripted or die. There is no stopping them. There is no resistance. The Goddess of demands there be order and her Will must be obeyed.
There are many types of mages and yet Theslad is of a rare and prized breed. An Abyss Mage, with the power to traverse between realms. He is no hero. He is no savior. He's just a man living one day at a time in world that's growing more and more fearful of magic and it's mages. But when his brother, Karson, a Harbinger of the Church comes knocking at his door seeking help, Theslad is forced to make a choice between burying his hatchet with the last bit of family he has left or letting them die and fleeing for his life.

Gamleon's Tail ~ Welcome to the worlds of : Within ~
I wrote this for EVERYONE. To appeal to anyone that reads ANY genre. It combines almost all of them. It's an introduction to the Worlds of Within universe. When you get to the action parts (which doesn't take long) you should be invested enough to want to unravel the mysteries and enjoy its intrigue... The flood is raging. A terrifying, heartless mountain of water, swallowing the world . The tunnel networks? Of course, that won't save them. The forests? Like leaves in a breeze. The lookout towers and trade hubs? Gone. Washed clean. Every home, every last trace of what once was. Gamleon is the first to see it ... and survive. His mind is near collapse, his heart broken. He runs. What would YOU do? What could anyone do? Some scrape by in a mythological setting of beasts and medieval men. Cruel, literally cold-blooded Gorgon hordes enforce an absolute rule slithering in the tunnels beneath the feet of every kingdom. There is an isolated, forgotten place. A cavern, magnificent and vast, older than civilization. A place where the weird and the unwanted might ride out this cataclysm if Gamleon can stay alive long enough to get them there.. In this special place, something incredible, cut off from the outside, lurks. Something... you won't be ready for or ever expect. Gamleon, our weary adventurer, is a paradox: terrifying to some perhaps, yet his heart and intent is helpful, with a quiet dignity bordering on noble, intimidating and innately intelligent. The only way back out is to navigate the Gorgon tunnels. Join him, won't you ? Share his inner thoughts . See and feel how they help us all learn how to persist and triumph in spite of a world where everything is stacked against us. ( sound familiar, it should.) Join him and be swept away as he encounters or invents never-before-seen innovations and outrageous challenges. Dignity meets hope. Self-respect shines beyond courage. Welcome my friend to the Worlds of Within.
ORIGIN (#3, Gods Among Us)
When Loki's consort and soulmate marries his rival to save their son from a curse, a prophecy leads to consequences even the God of Chaos couldn't predict. *** The Unseelie Goddess of War's revenge against Asgard's Dark Prince puts him in a no-win scenario with a choice between losing his soulmate or his son. Bad enough that damn Atlantean prince saved Shannon when Loki couldn't, but now Elatha is saving Loki's son by stealing his mate. Neither outcome will leave Shannon and Loki's relationship unchanged. While some of Shannon's Unseelie relatives have no issue with killing her son, others aren't so blase about the curse. Yet it's the prophecy at Shannon's birth that's brought Elatha and Shannon together in this arranged marriage. When betrayal strikes, it may be the key to saving not just her son, but Loki's soul as well. The prophecy hints at a chance to right a mistake that has haunted him, but it will require more soul-searching than Loki is comfortable with. Wait until he finds out he'll have to get along with his rival Elatha to achieve their goals. FINAL STORY IS AVAILABLE at all major retailers. The first few chapters of the early draft are here to get a sense of the story. If you want to read it for free and review, a Booksirens link is provided.

Forsaken: The Chosen Trilogy - Book One
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.Complete
Ascension: The Forsaken Path
Betrayed. Abandoned. Left to die in the depths of a dungeon. Kael Veyron was never meant to be special. Born a commoner in a world where strength is dictated by the one skill granted at birth, he was doomed to mediocrity. His skill, Phantom Edge, was nothing more than a footnote in a world ruled by nobles born with power beyond reach. He trained harder than anyone, fought against fate itself-only to be discarded by the very team he trusted. Stranded in an uncharted dungeon, surrounded by monsters lurking in the darkness, Kael should have died. But something changed. When he defeated his first beast, he discovered a secret no one else knew. A power that should have been impossible-the ability to absorb the attributes of the creatures he killed. Now, in the shadows of the world that abandoned him, Kael will rise. He will evolve. He will adapt. And when he walks back into the world that left him behind, they won't recognize the man they tried to kill. They will fear him.

Astral the Beginning
What happens when the flames of destruction engulf your entire village, leaving only ashes of the life you once knew? When your sister is stolen by a dark organization that worships the Goddess of Death, a shadowy group branded as a universal threat by every empire? What happens when you, too, are cursed-marked by a legendary vampire-forced to wield a sinister, unknown magic that threatens to transform you into one of them? This is the story of Asuma, a young man burdened by a shattered past, an ominous curse, and the weight of the impossible. As he journeys across the vast and perilous world of Anorak, Asuma must navigate the intricate web of imperial politics, fend off the lurking demonic forces seeking to claim his soul, and unravel the mysteries that could either save or destroy him. This is an original story, crafted entirely from my imagination. Each character is a unique creation, born from the depths of my mind to bring this tale to life. Updates will vary depending on my schedule, but I promise a minimum of two chapters per week to keep the adventure going. Thank you so much for reading!
