Banished from his home, with no hope of clearing his name or honour - Galahad had few choices and even fewer good ones.
Thrown from her world into one of magic and monsters - Robin has only one chance to survive and maybe get home.
With a tailor who is terrible with money but great at talking himself into and out of trouble and a mage who hasn't actually passed his exams yet, can this motley band get Robin home in one piece and clear Galahad's name in the process?
A Knights Gambit has been taken down while I work on finishing the second half (and making edits as my beta readers have recommended). I will bring it back again as soon as I am able.

The land of the Gods (Complete)
"I thought a tree that symbolises life would be a fitting companion to Death." Thaleara Sullivan has a debt to pay. Five years ago, she was found by Glenham's thieves guild and provided a life. Little did she know that she would have to return the gold for what she was given... and more. She's been scrambling around the city of Glenham as a thief ever since, looking for jobs to pay back her indenture. But when she steals a ring with the symbol of magic from a stranger, she realises she made a mistake. The symbol and magic itself has been long since outlawed in the city of Glenham, and use or even association with it is punishable by death. Thaleara sells the ring the first chance she gets, but the stranger now wants it back, and he is willing to pay five million gold for it. Thaleara can't say no. There's only one problem. The ring was given to the king as a gift from a foreign diplomat, and they'll have to break into the palace to get it back. "Then let's start planning a heist."

As a Cursed elf, one born with no magic, Edwyr has been forced to live among humans for over ten years. He doesn't mind his job of defending the town that he now lives in from beast attacks, and he gets along with most of the humans well enough, but he can never quite make the bitterness and resentment over being exiled go away. Life goes on as usual until a talented but inexperienced elf named Feyrith arrives and tells Edwyr that the High Elven Council wants him to help Feyrith on a quest. Despite his hatred towards the Council, Edwyr ends up agreeing, if only because he doubts Feyrith can survive a trip like this alone. The task is to investigate strange magical energies in a ruin a few days' travel away. Edwyr assumes that the only thing to worry about will be avoiding getting killed by the jungle wildlife, but the mission turns much more complicated when they stumble across a conspiracy that aims to change everything about the elven society. Including both of their destinies. --------------------------- [word count: ≈ 90 000 words]Complete
