This is a short story just to provide a snippet for the main characters of my story, Hiraeth. Please let me know how you feel!
Description of this story:
In the kingdom of Lara, cities are split up based on which element a person harnesses the power for, and fraternizing with other cities are strictly forbidden. Blaze, the fiery and hotheaded warrior from Fire Nation has to struggle with watching Arah, a girl from Air Nation with whom he has a complicated history with, talk to another man. While his rule-loving 'best friend' Zale, who lives in Water Nation, accuses him of being overdramatic. Zale and Terra, from Earth Nation, try to figure out how to do some damage control for Blaze's behavior. It's time for the monthly mixed Nations duel where the Nations are brought together under the direction of the King to train together and announce the top Nation. During the most highly anticipated event of the kingdom, the widely feared Hydra attacks...will these four 'friends' be able to come together and fight back?

The Elementals
My name is Tide. I'd love to say hi and all, but if I tell you my location two very bad things could happen. First, someone who isn't really on my list of favorite people might find the information. Then, they would hunt us down and try to use our powers to take over the world and other maniacal things. Yeah, not so fun. However, I'd like it if people knew how things really happened. You may see things on the news, and they may sound bad, but trust me, this is the real story. Because I'm an Elemental. And somebody needs to set the record straight.* [Action #101] [Fantasy #2] :: cover credit goes to the lovely ATXNNA :: *heyo so this book is pretty old, some (a lot of) spelling mistakes, some (a lot of) plot holes, but if you're looking for some fast paced action and some sarcasm and some cliche romance you should honestly just go to the second book but yeah, this has got that, just with, you know, the glaring faults in the story line. Just a warning.Complete

A Mage's Wrath
Two hundred years of peace have passed in Zertima, a land filled with magic, creatures, and mages. However, after those two hundred years comes an era of fear, fighting, and death. The Venom's Curse, known as the world's greatest danger, has climbed up to reach a level of great power, with the help of his fierce hunger for battle and commanding, that is strong enough to possibly secure his rule of the entire mage world. In order to save Zertima from potential collapse and eternal perishing, four young mages are found, called the Elemental Mages. The Mages - Water, Earth, Fire, and Air - are taken to a sheltered location named the Mage Sanctuary to train together and prepare for their eventual battle with the Venom's Curse and to rid of the trepidation he has cast across all of Zertima. However, not all of the Mages are willing to commit their life to train with the others and help save the mage world. Ignacia, the Elemental Mage of Fire, is the newest and last mage to be Founded and come to the others. Along with easily getting into arguments with Water Mage Salil, she is in an internal battle with herself trying to decide what choice she should really choose to carry through with. *Book originally inspired by "The Burning Sky" by Sherry Thomas.
