Vail of Thorns
Our story begins in a world where magic is a currency, and power is the only true god. The Fae are hunted, imprisoned, or bent into service. The human elite trade their souls for a taste of their waning power, while the common folk, shackled by fear of the unknown, betray their own neighbors for a whisper of safety. In this shadowed land, an innocent love is warped by desperate need and the crushing weight of expectation. From this corruption, an ancient evil stirs. Its goal is to shatter the veil that protects our world, to tear open the Fae Realm and drain its magic dry-all to feed a sinister hunger for dominion, no matter the cost. Darkness, after all, does not always storm the gates. Often, it seeps in through the cracks in the human heart. The journey ahead is long, paved with secrets and woven with lies. But hold fast. For even the deepest night must break, and a new dawn awaits on the horizon.
Damsel Knight
Sometimes the best knight is a damsel. In a world where women are seen as weak, defenceless creatures for men to protect and own, one orphan girl wants to be different. She dreams of being a knight. Slaying dragons, taking down armies with her father's sword. Only her foster parents don't agree with her views. On the night of her betrothal to a man over twice her age, the King's soldiers come to their tiny village, and in the chaotic aftermath she's left with a choice. Go back to life she knows and marry a man she despises. Or journey onward and risk death to earn the knighthood she dreams of. The road forward isn't a safe one for a girl travelling with only her foster brother as company. Magic lurks in dark places. Vengeance burrows deep in many equally dark hearts. And all around the circle armies are gathering to defend the Kingdom against a threat not seen for a thousand years. This is the first part of the 140 thousand word fantasy adventure.Complete
Of Taverns and Tankards
in the edge of a rain-slick trade road stands a small tavern, a place equal parts refuge and rumor mill. Here, a barkeep with a soldier's stare curates peace with a raised brow and a heavier mallet; a silver-tongued chronicler collects legends like coin; and strangers become comrades by the second tankard. But the ale is only the opening act. Whispers of storm-born relics, missing caravans, and old debts drift with the smoke, tugging patrons into the night: a blade-saint who swore off killing, a hedge-witch whose spells taste like honey and regret, a caravan guard who runs faster than his past, and a helm-hooded wanderer whose name carries the weight of thunder. Of Taverns and Tankards blends warm, fireside camaraderie with high-adventure stakes-episodic tales that interlock into a larger mystery about who's really writing the story... and why the road keeps leading back to this tavern.
chasing stars
Tycer dreams of becoming a legendary adventurer-but for now, he's stuck wiping counters in a quiet village tavern. He's no hero (yet), just a beastman with big dreams and an even bigger imagination. When a strange girl crosses his path, his small world starts to shift... and maybe, just maybe, his real adventure is about to begin. 📝 Note: This is my first story, so it's a bit of an experiment! Thanks for reading-I hope you enjoy the journey.
