A while back, I posted a short story about a grandfather who rescued his granddaughter from the agents of the Queen. Everyone who commented on the story wanted to know more about the characters. I decided to write a series of novellas chronicling the lives of Aldan Beaverson(the grandfather) and Odessa Armont(the queen). Join them in their exile as Princess Odessa is forced to flee her home accompanied by apprentice mage Aldan and two loyal guardsmen.

Fate
After being hunted in their homeland of Abeillnuv for nearly their entire lives, nomads Tonius and Elyssa decide that it's time to move on, to leave the realm they'd called home and finally escape the tyrant they'd spent seasons running from. It seemed like an easy enough task. Go West to Haven, charter a ship and they'd be on their way, leaving behind a lifetime of memories and worries. Unfortunately, things are a little more complicated than either of them could have anticipated. A war coming, a battle that will rage across Abeillnuv like a wildfire, with the two of them caught right in the middle of it. What should have been a simple journey West, something they had done several times before, suddenly becomes a fight for their lives as sides are taken and secrets long buried resurface. After all, everything comes with a price. Book One of IntertwinedComplete![HENRIETTA: PRAELUDIUM [TO BE EDITED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/295437638-256-k584448.jpg)

Moonspire: The Song of Four Heirs
🌙 The Moonspire has fallen. Its magic shattered, its people scattered, its secrets buried in ruin. But four young heirs survive. Lunara - Seventeen, silver-eyed, carrying her father's final gift: a charm of raw, ancient magic. Fierce, determined, but haunted by the power she cannot control. Lyra - Ten years old, innocent yet unshaken, her soft voice carrying strange strength. Where her sister burns with duty, she shines with hope. Kaelen - Sixteen, sharp-minded and stubborn, a half-elf boy hiding the truth of his royal blood. Quick to fight, quicker to calculate, and slower to admit what stirs in his heart for Lunara. Selene - Twelve, Kaelen's little sister, quiet and clever. Loyal beyond question, she sees family in Lunara and Lyra-and overhears more than anyone realizes. Maerwen - A warrior woman in exile, scarred by grief after losing her twin daughters. Her blade is merciless, but her compassion for the heirs is fiercer still. Eryndor - An old scholar who once walked the halls of the Moonspire. Burdened with secrets, guilt, and knowledge of the prophecy that may doom or save them all. Hunted by the Shadow-King's scouts, whispered of in human courts, and watched by gods who stir uneasily in their sleep, the heirs must learn to stand together-or be broken apart. Their song, the prophecy calls it: a harmony of blood, magic, and soul. But every song demands a price. And if they fail, the world will fall into silence.Complete
Jolene
Jolene was at a loss on how to proceed. Weeks ago she was a simple pioneer girl living at the edge of civilization. Now she was hailed as the queen of the dragons as she was responsible for bringing the last of the dragons forth, most of them falling into imperial hands. The fate of the world rested on her shoulders. She and her companion dragon riders responded by dropping water filled bladders on the emperor and his entourage from their dragons. The fact that Mother Ruth knew of her action surprised her. "What is this?" Jolene asked. "Your wanted poster. Thought you might enjoy it." "How do you always know so much. We can't seem to do anything without you knowing about it." "I speak to all the dragons, Jody, even the Wyvern." "I never expected my Blue to be such a blabbermouth," Jolene teased. "Work on the chain breaking spell, all of you need to learn it. I'm counting on all of you. Jody, you will be the one true queen, remember that." "Shall we tell her the rest of the prophesy," Mathilda asked Ruth when they were alone. "Not yet, she needs time. Time to grow in strength and find her solution." "The false queen will kill her, I have seen it." "Perhaps Mathilda, Jolene is made of stern stuff, I feel in my heart she will win the day."Complete
