"Survive or be consumed."

In the mystical Kingdom of Elavthara, a battle for survival unfolds as Fire Maxima Tarrkan steps into the merciless arena where blades clash and fearsome beasts await. It's a battle of kill or be killed, and only the strongest will emerge from the ashes.

Clutching the sacred Eretuz, she stands as a symbol of her family's sacrifice, chosen to enter the Sanctum of Valor Academy. Her decision? A pact sealed with her sick brother's well-being. Amidst the sea of entrants eager to become Valorian warriors, it's a battle for survival where the line blurs between predator and prey.

Yet, she carries an additional burden-the stigma of her heritage. As a Tarkkan, she fights not only against her rivals but also against prejudice that shadows her every move. Even the renowned Captain Incendio Imperius Alvogore, a Zirkhan and the academy's mightiest mythic warrior, seeks her downfall. The age-old enmity between their lands intensifies the tension, fueling their conflict. Amidst sacrifice, unknown dangers, fragile alliances, and bitter rivalries, she embarks on a journey that tests her courage and shatters the constraints of her predetermined fate.

Is it a tale of survival? Is it a story of overcoming adversity? Or is it an exploration of one's place in a destiny not meant for her? Within the Sanctum of Valor Academy, the answer remains uncertain. But for Fire Maxima, one thing is certain-she must survive or succumb to the unforgiving embrace of the God of Death, Ozayriz.

When the king of Aizasea is assassinated, eighteen-year-old Celvene is wise enough to keep her head down after witnessing the attack. As a circus mage, she has no business in politics - until the next ruler is selected by ritual, and Celvene is the sole soul capable of wielding the king's sword. Declared the destined queen, Celvene expects to rise... but her kingdom has other plans. Instead of honoring the ritual, the brutish general Aleksandr brands her an upstart peasant and forces her into the castle as a servant, hoping she'll disappear quietly. With their mortal enemy continuing to strike the city, the people yearn for a more ruthless leader, and Aleksandr is hellbent on seizing the crown for himself. On top of that, forbidden and deadly magic begins to blossom in Celvene's heart, threatening to unravel all she holds dear. The magic corrupts her mind and drives her to acts she commits against her will, tainting her already struggling reputation. And among the enemy ranks stands her childhood best friend, fighting for the other side of the war. Facing her again is a complication Celvene can't ignore. As tensions rise and the horrors of war unfold, Celvene uncovers twisted secrets that could spell the death of her city. Will she survive long enough to fulfill her destiny as queen, or will the shadows of dark magic and war consume her?

The Veils Of Rivalry (ON HOLD) by _unhingedauthor_
26 parts Ongoing Mature
What happens when two souls, set on each other's destruction, collide? "I will destroy her till she regrets her own existence." "I will wait till he regrets his decisions." A marriage bound not by love, but by vengeance. Shivansh entered into matrimony with Samriddhi, not as a husband, but as a punisher. His mother's tragic death had left him shattered, and in his grief, he sought justice-or perhaps retribution. Convinced that Samriddhi was the key to uncovering the truth, he vowed to make her suffer. But as he walked the treacherous path of revenge, the lines between hatred and love began to blur. He never anticipated the depth of her pain, the secrets she carried, or the silent battles she had fought long before he entered her life. Slowly, against his will, he found himself drawn to her-not just to her beauty, but to her strength, her resilience, and the sorrow hidden behind her eyes. But was love enough to erase the wounds of the past? Could Samriddhi ever forgive the man who married her with the intent to ruin her? And was Shivansh truly punishing the right person, or had he been blinded by his own misconceptions? As buried truths unraveled, they found themselves entangled in a web of lies, betrayals, and long-forgotten sins. Every revelation brought a new storm, testing the fragile bond they had unknowingly built. Did they find their happily ever after? Maybe. Was Love easy for them? Certainly Not. Love was never meant to be easy for them. Twists awaited at every turn, shadows from Samriddhi's past loomed over them, and the ghosts of their choices refused to fade. Dive into their world-a tale of vengeance, love, and redemption, where nothing is as it seems, and every secret has the power to change everything.

22 parts Complete
In the heart of Azeroth, where ancient magics weave through verdant forests, icy tundras, and fiery wastelands, an uneasy peace hangs between the Alliance and the Horde. But as whispers of a dark prophecy spread, a new threat begins to stir-a force not bound by faction or allegiance, lurking in the unseen corners of the world. The story follows a diverse party of heroes, each hailing from different factions and regions of Azeroth. Lyara, a night elf druid haunted by dreams of a dying world, joins forces with Aedric, a human paladin loyal to the Alliance, and Tharok, an orc shaman with a troubled past. They are later joined by Zyrra, a cunning blood elf rogue seeking revenge, and Rhogar, a stoic draenei priest guided by the Light. Bound by an ancient prophecy, the unlikely group must put aside their deep-seated enmity and mistrust to unravel the mystery behind the Shadows of the Beyond-a cult of dark magic-users who seek to unearth forbidden powers buried beneath Azeroth. As they travel across the lands, from the whispering forests of Ashenvale to the forsaken halls of Karazhan, they uncover secrets that shake the foundations of everything they know about Azeroth's history. But as the echoes of an ancient evil grow louder, the heroes will be forced to confront not only the enemy that threatens their world but also the darkness within themselves. Can they break the cycle of war and hatred before the shadows consume Azeroth, or will their differences tear them apart, dooming the world they love?

The Shadow of the East is a monster. Tyrin Caderyn is no better. They've met before, but memory painted each a ghost and a flicker of familiarity. Both of them hail from strong and vicious bloodlines. Time and tragedy and choice bind them together. War is on the horizon, and Shadow is in the midst of schemes and plans greater than her. She's on the run from a man she learned to hate, and her own past. Her secrets can destroy her. Tyrin is an Elite warrior for the Ilystari Realm and answers only to the king and queen. When he's sent to hunt down a powerful female, he doesn't question the orders. But when he meets her, everything changes. Darkness encroaches and alliances break. Bonds are formed and friendships shatter. There is a greater power at play than either of them realized. Has fate drawn them together, or something stronger? -- She huffed a quiet laugh. "Well, I suppose I'll get paid one way or another for his death. If you let me keep his body, you have a deal." Tyrin darted his eyes back to gauge the honesty of her response, but she sounded sincere. He finally nodded. Her grin was nothing shy of wicked. Something inside his chest reared it's sleeping head and purred at that expression. "I hope you and I never meet again. These Realms aren't ready for us." Weren't ready for her, he wanted to correct. A shiver of a promise zinged through his blood and he grinned back at her. "What's your name, little assassin?" She started melting back into the shadows - back the way she'd come to give him the privacy of the kill. "I am no one and nothing. Forget about me, pretty male. It won't do to dwell on a shadow." And then she was gone.
