Fate decided that their paths should cross. | 

For friendly, hard-working Sua, the only things that matter in life are the happiness and safety of her friends and family. She's more than content to manage her late father's inn with her pet antula by her side. However, being an innkeeper in a small town isn't always easy... or safe. There's danger lurking in the woods, and only she is allowed to stop it. 

Through a twist of fate, a mysterious traveler comes along and distracts her from the threat to her home. Sa Gin's new, handsome face becomes the talk of the town overnight. What's more, he has a charming personality, a purse full of money... and a weapon on his back. Can Sua trust this stranger with her burden and her heart? 

Or does the newcomer already have enough secrets of his own?

ONC2025 Rafe Daring is not a hero known for his bravery. He is a farm boy known for being stubborn, cheeky, and doing things haphazardly, which always leads to chaos. When he flees town on his motorcycle, chased by the boy he'd turned into his nemesis, Rafe veers from safety to avoid his enemy. He ventures onto a strangled path through the forbidden forest, a vast stretch of access-restricted nature reserve bordering his family's farm. As with most of his decisions, this one also leads to disaster. Soon, Rafe finds himself injured and lost at the bottom of a steep slope, trying to find his way home. When he stumbles into a briar vine-covered wall, he decides that his only way home might be through what appears to be an archway clogged by vines. However, he is unprepared for what waits for him when he breaks through the thick, thorny briar vines. Finding himself in an increasingly dangerous and confusing situation, he realises that this time, he'd outdone himself in the art of making extraordinarily bad decisions. He has one question that stands out above all his other questions: "Who would be dumb enough to give an idiot like me superpowers?!" TW: Some chapters might have upsetting themes; reader discretion is advised. ONC2025 Prompt 1: You stumble upon a mysterious door made entirely of briars and thorns. As you step through, you're granted extraordinary powers. But with great power comes great responsibility - it's now your duty to save the crumbling kingdom. Word Count (WP Web) = 39 269

15 parts Complete

The life of a goddess isn't as easy as it seems. | On the morning of Palya's arranged marriage, a mark appears on her forehead, indicating that she has ascended into a deity. She learns that she has become a void-goddess with the ability to undo the other gods' blessings. Believing that she would betray them and lose control, her fellow gods declare that she must submit herself to an eternal slumber, which would restrain her power. Unless, of course, she could learn to master her gift. The new void-goddess must bind her power to the soul of a mortal who will die if she uses it beyond what the situation demands. Palya thinks that nobody in their right mind would be willing to risk their lives for her freedom--until Iloyu, the man she was supposed to marry, volunteers for the task. Can the timid but hopeful Palya and the brash but noble Iloyu navigate the perils of godhood and fall in love along the way? (Written for the Open Novella Contest 2024, Prompt 18: With powers they said were a shame, a goddess is tamed into submission and fears her own destiny.)
