Slinging beer, circus chaos, and all-out college fun. Well, that's how graduation weekend was supposed to be until they showed up.
Flora knows it's going to take more than a degree to complete her. When a circus rolls into town, Flora, and her best friend Stacie take a trip out of town to celebrate their recent graduation. A girl's weekend at a hotel, lots of drinking, a random circus, and maybe a fling or two. When the offer of a lifetime shows up, it's hard to let it pass. But, it will be with her boss' godson and tons of travel. 
People who were meant to be long gone are starting to re-appear as the troupe prepares for its next leg of the tour. People, who her mom swore were dead years ago. With shifters appearing, the existence of magic and a deep mystery, it seems this job is going to be more than she prepared for.

The Eternal Circus by Odaine4
1 part Ongoing Mature
**Title:** *The Eternal Circus* **Description:** In the quiet, unassuming town of Glenmoor, the arrival of a mysterious black-and-white striped circus changes everything. The Eternal Circus appears without warning, its tents brimming with otherworldly magic and breathtaking performances that captivate all who enter. But beneath the enchanting exterior lies a deadly secret-a centuries-old battle between light and shadow, fought by two powerful magicians bound to the circus's magic. Iris Valenwood, an ordinary young woman with an extraordinary destiny, is drawn into the circus's world when she discovers her latent magical abilities. Guided by the enigmatic magician Kael, Iris learns that the circus's very existence is sustained by a delicate balance of magic-a balance that is now threatened by the dark ambitions of the sorceress Sylvaine. As Iris delves deeper into the mysteries of the circus, she uncovers the truth about the ancient duel that has trapped Kael and Sylvaine in a cycle of conflict, with the fate of the circus hanging in the balance. But when Iris's own powers begin to awaken, she realizes that she holds the key to breaking the cycle and saving the circus from destruction. Caught between the forces of light and shadow, Iris must navigate a world where nothing is as it seems, and every choice could mean life or death for those she has come to care about. With time running out, Iris must embrace her destiny as the guardian of the Eternal Circus, or risk losing everything to the darkness. *The Eternal Circus* is a spellbinding tale of magic, mystery, and love, set in a world where dreams and nightmares collide. It is a story of courage, sacrifice, and the enduring power of hope, perfect for readers who love immersive fantasy and richly woven worlds.

In a world where select few can manipulate Yin and Yang energy, equilibrium has been maintained by fair treatment to users of both sides. In recent years, however, this delicate balance has been threatened by extreme beliefs. Those who have the power to tip the scales are fueling flames of suspicion and turning man against each other. The world is disintegrating into ruins; droughts, floods, famine, corruption and distrust among Yin and Yang Congregants threaten to upend life as it is. Aletheia is just a girl from a normal family in Minato. Her family just well off enough to send her to her dream in life: the Congregate. But she is not a Supplicant and her family has no ties within the Communion. So she enters the Congregate almost a blank slate, only armed with what she read in her hometown, which wasn't much. She has no idea what is coming for her as her life up to that point had been quite normal, specked with the typical existential crisis many of you would know well. What was the meaning of life? What was she here to do? When Aletheia meets Elora at the Congregate - oh beautiful, talented Elora - Aletheia realises that she does not have a Glorious Purpose. No, she thinks she has found her meaning in Elora. For reasons she cannot comprehend, Aletheia believes Elora is the one who will wrestle the world back into balance, and she is merely along for the ride. She doesn't realise her companionship to a Elora's journey is more important than she knows. Follow her as she navigates through self-doubt, uncertainty, love, loyalty and friendship, searching and grasping at her meaning while she fights alongside Elora, whose shoulders carry the burden of saving the world. ~~~ Story now complete: Updates weekly!
