Welcome, traveler, to the land of Albahkhar. A land of mystery, wonder, adventure, romance, and dangers alike. Not everything you'll see is similar to the deserts of your own homeland. Snakes are as giant as horses, massive centipedes scurry the sands, rock golems venture the lands at night, and big bat creatures fly throughout the scorching yellow sky. And that is only the tip of the iceberg of Albahkhar, or more appropriately, the first few inches of the sand dunes. We'll be focusing on the story of a thief seeking enlightenment. Abandoned by his parents for an unknown reason, left in the streets to rot, and nurtured into a life of crime and thievery, Shaleem el-Khalil wanders the desert in search of fulfillment and treasure. This is no easy challenge, as he is wanted in nearly every city-state he's ever visited. Shaleem never understood this, as he only stole food to eat, occasional fresh clothes to hide in, and some money to get by. Alas, the states and their leaders have had it with this man's trickery and have sent guards all over the desert to capture him. To achieve ultimate power and freedom, he must find the Golden Scarab. A treasure so powerful and mighty that almost every empire on the planet searches it. But little did he know, he'd stumble upon a gem possibly even grander and one far less believable; the Genie's Lamp. Welcome, to the sands of Albahkhar!All Rights Reserved

Fortune Favors the Cursed by the-reticent-seer

Badriya As-Sahra is sick of piling up camel dung and picking people's pockets for a living. Her world discriminates against women and orphans, and it is only her damned luck that she happens to be both. She yearns for more but can't do anything else unless she wants to rot in the streets. Ayaz Shahrayar balances two lives: one of defiance, where he aids his people suffering from the Sultan's rule, and one of obedience, where he plays the role of a naive prince and heir in public. But his thirst for vengeance drives him more reckless by the day, and he knows that he might do something that could threaten his inheritance and his life. When the Sultan of Zecaj, desperate for more wealth to start a war, declares a country-wide hunt for a powerful artifact lost in legends called the Jewel of Opulence, Badriya jumps at the chance for the promise of reward. When the Sultan threatens Ayaz of losing the very thing he is meant to have, he has no choice but to join the hunt. As Badriya and Ayaz cross paths on their quest, they must learn to work together to find the Jewel and uncover the truth of its power. Only that it proves to be more difficult when the threat of betrayal and the spark of attraction try to distract them from their opposing goals. | 90,000 - 100,000 words.

The Stone Heart of Shambala by markjohnbrown

An old school friend invites the protagonist to his home in Ghorka, Nepal. After a few months staying there, his friend returns for a while to England leaving Mark in Nepal. The world is hit by powerful solar storms which knock out everything electric. His friend, Sabin, has to return to Nepal come what may, so he begins a journey on foot across Europe, where he meets a fellow Nepalese, and they join company. Their journey is hastened when they are picked up by a Sikh pilot in a small plane returning to India. Taking advantage of lulls in the solar storms, they hop across the Middle East until they reach India. The plane cannot continue, so they split up on foot, with the pilot heading to his home, while the two Nepalese men head for theirs. At last Sabin finds himself in Kathmandu, where he leaves his friend and picks up a small packet of seeds from the Post Office. Shortly after, he arrives in Gorkha where his wife and Mark are waiting for him. No sooner has he rested, than a group of Tibetan monks arrive in the village carrying messages to the Dalai Lama in India. They also carry one for Sabin, from his uncle in a monastery near Mount Kailash. His uncle requests his presence, so Mark and Sabin leave on horseback and head into the Himalayas. After a long and arduous journey they arrive at the monastery, where the monk asks them to take a message to a monastery further north which is unknown to the Chinese, and not on any map. They set off into the mountains, and find themselves sheltering in a cave from a terrible snowstorm. Coming out of the cave in the morning, a group of unusual rescuers are waiting to take them to their destination. A walk through a tunnel in a mountain, leads them to a hidden valley of warm sunshine and green fields.

"You heart have gone crazy in my love Ya Habibi! Dont believe a word it says!" He replied. She smiled sadly. A girl who has to rise from beneath the dirt to above the skies... A guy who has to fight the corruption that's engulfing his land... A destiny which is already been written and a faith that had the power to alter that destiny! Will they succeed or taste failure? Will their names shine? Or will the sands of time erase their names forever?? To find out more, go ahead?
