Thalon has been a monk his entire life.
He worshiped and served the Gods whose magic wards off the dangers to the world of Vaelia.
He believed their promise that the hardships of life will be rewarded with salvation upon death.
Then he learns the truth.
The source of their magic is the souls of the dead.
Fueled with burning rage at this deception, he learns to evoke magic from his soul and, determined to reveal the lie told to all of Vaelia, he escapes their Palace.
Now Thalon faces hostile priests seeking to maintain order; weary peasants who don't want to know about the machinations of the Gods; and daring legions wishing to use magic for domination, even at the cost of their souls.
Thalon comes to realize that not everyone shares his idealism and that mortal ambition can be far more dangerous than celestial tyranny.

The Quiet Offering
The gods chose them. But what if the gods lied? Cael's world runs on worship-every birth, breath, and death bound to divine light. He's never questioned it. Until his sister slips into an unnatural coma, and the gods demand a price for her salvation. Hunted by monsters, torn between loyalty and truth, Cael must decide: will he wield the sword that protects the lie, or ignite the flame that burns it all down? A tale of sacrifice, betrayal, and love in a world where gods wear masks, and faith itself can topple kingdoms. (Slow-burn, but once it ignites, it consumes.)
How I Accidentally Became a Deity
When Isaac woke up in Chronicles of the Eternal War, he thought he'd finally escaped the boredom of his old life. But instead of becoming a hero, a villain, or even a side character, he was reborn as a nameless god. No temple. No prayers. No myths. Even the High Pantheon didn't know he existed. At first, it felt like freedom, a chance to shape the world however he wanted. But freedom comes with a cost: a god without worshippers is powerless, and in a world ruled by divine politics, being "powerless" is a death sentence. Friends will be won. Enemies will be made. And entire nations may burn as Isaac decides whether to rewrite destiny itself... or embrace the role of a nameless god.

Dawn Blade [Discontinued / Hiatus]
A once peaceful world was brought close to extinction and oblivion after a strange event that caused the demon realm to be combined with the mortal realm of the humans. The demons that invaded the world spread about havoc and destruction. The humans, who tried to fight back with their technology, had been defeated. As time passed, the demons becoming the ruling race, humans became docile and mainly went into hiding, with few towns still having human rights or safety. Technology started going backward as none had the chance to advance or evolve their technology, reducing humans to a state of a decayed modern age. The humans live in fear of the demons, seeking only a way out or a way to be safe. However, recently, a group of revolutionaries has started rising underground, forming an army of their own with the goal of destroying the Great Demon Lord. Together with their newly grown special powers and for some even special weapons, they seek to fight against the demons to return their freedom. Find out what will happen in this post-demon-apocalyptic story, the world of Dawn Blade!Complete
Ice at Midnight: A Winterwatcher Fanfic
*COMPLETE* What would've happened if the Jade Winglet never got wrapped up with Darkstalker? If Sora had never tried to kill Icicle? If Winter had never gone looking for Hailstorm with his friends? What if they never got involved in the perils and dangers they faced in the WoF series, and instead the worst things they have to worry about are assignments, drama, and bullies? At least for most of them... Winter is an IceWing as harsh and narcissistic as they come, desperately trying to live up to his parents' expectations. Moonwatcher is a shy, scroll-loving NightWing who hates unfamiliar places. When these two dragons' worlds collide at Jade Mountain Academy, their initial hatred for one another soon blossoms into something more, something neither of them has ever experienced before. At first, things go well for both of them at the academy. However, they quickly learn that the world here can still be as unforgiving as it is outside of school. And when students start going missing, it becomes clear that there's something sinister going on... Together, along with five other friends, can they survive mountains of schoolwork, bullies, and drama that neither of them wanted to get involved in to begin with? Find out by reading Ice at Midnight: A Winterwatcher Fanfic! *Note: I DID NOT MAKE THIS COVER. Carni_Crimson did, huge shout-out for her art skills!
