"Parker walked past the children playing and eventually came to a stop. They weren't at Winona's dormitory yet, but they noticed something unusual. The alleyway. The old gateway to Dan, a now abandoned city, lost to dark creatures made of pure Tywyll energy. An unsettling sight, usually avoided by many. The air didn't seem as clear there, you couldn't hear anything besides the staticky shrieks of whatever tainted creatures lie beyond. A place left untouched by humankind nowadays, but Parker swore they heard perfectly audible words coming from deeper into the alleyway."
This is set in a fantasy setting, but it is also in a much more futuristic time than a lot of fantasy stories. It's a little confusing at first, but most of the terminology is explained throughout the story. I'll try to update as frequently as possible, enjoy!

Beneath the Shadowlanders
We knew something wasn't right from the moment we awoke. It was like something was missing - a part of our very souls - and we couldn't sense the deficiency, no matter how hard we tried. A hundred million eyes adjusted to the dark all at once, all surprised to be awakened so soon. We ran through our checklists of limbs and senses, drawing ourselves out of our dreams piece by piece. Some went back to sleep, unaware, unbothered, too tired to notice the difference. Some lay in bed, too anxious to stand until the light of dawn crept through their windows at last, and they were sure the monsters in their closets had gone back to sleep. Some leapt from their slumbers, more keenly aware than others that the missing pieces were important. But we didn't know. We couldn't have. Not until we found ourselves standing in the light and discovered: We no longer had shadows.Complete
Hidden
Dear fellow Waddits, Up until this point I have been working diligently at the completion of our first tale having to work around the demons, metaphorical and otherwise (toddlers).

I look forward to sharing the adventure with all of you and hope that you will meet me at the safe hold.

When you make it, rest. The perilous journey is just beginning, but for the night, you will be well hidden. My deepest regard The TellerComplete
Heaven Gilded Zarcroft Hybrid
[CANCELLED AND MOVED] "Were you able to get out of bed this morning?" he asked, staring into the water. His voice was soothing, with the rasp of a fire. "I..." My breathing spiked. "I don't remember.

Will she solve it to save her pet squid and the planet? When millions of Earth's populations left four hundred years ago seeking a new planet to colonise, it paved the way for Earth to stabilise and thrive. But what happened to those people? Why has there been no contact? Are the visions sent from the ancient humans who left planet Earth? Zee quickly learns that her newfound independence is not without its challenges. Some of which might not be from this planet.Complete
Robe
When Dresden encounters a strangely-attired boy lying unconscious in the forested hills of Hep Duatab, he is perplexed: the boy is clearly an 'outsider', as those who are from beyond the Hepstraad are known. But what was he doing here, and how did he suddenly appear in the forest like this? Little does Dresden know, the boy is from much, much farther away, from a world that is well beyond Dresden's comprehension. Worse still, the boy is the first harbinger of an impending upheaval, a catastrophe that will engulf the Hepstraad and all those who call it their home. The outsider boy is soon followed by a powerful young girl, a girl who wields an unusual sword and a mighty stave, who regards magic as a mere triviality... and yet is obliviously unaware of Dresden's land and all that lies within. As a confluence of events takes place - the invasion of an army of half-giants; a betrayal and the theft of Hep Duatab's greatest treasure; and a friendship forged in the collision of worlds - Dresden and his new companions find themselves drawn into conflict with a dark power, an evil that spans two Universes and threatens all existence with annihilation. An evil that the Robe might save them from. If only they could get it back... --- Shoutout to Rose @MysteryPersonified for the awesome cover!Complete
