When monsters begin to attack the Isles of Skellige in patterns more violent than years prior, a Witcher is called for help to find the source of terror.
Moira Tuirseach, the Princess of the Isles, is less than thrilled at the Witcher's arrival- not due to the same superstition her people have against his kind but instead, she might be the reason behind such terror in the first place.
While already living an untraditional royal life being raised by her brothers and her mage, Moira wields an ancient magic she has little control over and her mage has little recollection of ever knowing about. When the Witcher becomes roped into this secret to, the three of them realize that Moira may have more to do with their cursed island than she initially believed. But in the midst of her hunting with the Witcher (due to an unrelenting adventurous bone in her), she begins to yearn for him and the life she leads, all while her Queen sister-in-law prepares to marry her off.
With the secrets she keeps from her family building up and the Witcher keeping his distance from her, Moira realizes there are more monsters than the ones she's cursed to terrorize her land and that what she comes to find out about her power will change the Isles of Skellige and their Princess forever

After her Gran fell ill and passed away, Brigid wasn't able to keep her grandmother's metaphysical shop going. With everything crashing down around her, Brigid buys a one-way ticket to the land of her ancestors, hoping to find solace in the old cabin where her Gran grew up. Ireland is everything she was always told it was and then some. As she sorts out the slowly declining house in the woods, she's thrust into the path of handsome Torin Boyle by circumstance. The walls she's built up around her heart are slowly chipped away as Torin reveals pieces of himself as well, opening not only his home but his heart too. Torin Boyle has spent the last thirty-odd years living in the North of Ireland, running through the rolling hills with his friends. As a pack of wolf Shifters in a country that has no natural wolves, Torin has learned to keep a tap on his inner emotions to protect those he loves. But his homeland is dying; small patches of forest turning brown and dry. When a witch appears on his family's land out of nowhere, he's concerned that the witch is to cause for what's been happening to the land. He never expected to feel pulled into her orbit so completely. Brigid's idyllic life comes to a halt when Torin's father falls ill, closely followed by other members of the Shifter's family. The land around them - the very land where Brigid's ancestors lived - is dying. If Brigid and Torin can't figure out how to fix it, she might not be the only one losing those she loves. **Trigger Warnings - mentions of hospitals and death/cancer; loosing loved ones**Complete
Joan
"I don't like to think of myself as this kickass, badass Lara Croft, no. But I try not to be your typical every day Jane Doe. So I where does that leave me? In the middle, I guess. So there. I'm just your atypical- yet completely ordinary- girl with a bloody crown. Yeah, that has a nice ring to it." At 14 years of age, Joan Domshov thinks she has it all figured out- well, mostly that is. Though her ducks may not always be in a line, she's pretty confident that if she's made it 14 years then she can make it 14 more without the world caving in on her. Oh how one can dream. Exposed to a new world with which she shares a closer tie than she knew, Joan realizes there's more beyond anything she's used to. But change is good.

When her brother is taken by the king who seems to have a personal vendetta against her family's namesake, Joan will travel to the other side of a world that is rumored to be folklore. Regardless, Joan is certain she can prevail. But as her confidence is shaken and her perception about who she truly is starts to diminish, she'll be left questioning the person she once thought she was. Smartmouthed, snarky, and clueless to her obstacles, Joan will figure out whether she is a girl with a tainted past or something else entirely.Complete
Ill-fated one
Desdemona Salvatore. She has a path set for her, one she must walk. Her mother was killed not too long ago, by Klaus Mickealson. A penalty she suffered due to her part in trying to end his life. Stefan Salvatore would not leave his girlfriend, Elena Gilbert, but Damon Salvatore took this as his chance to get his niece the hell out of that town. He knew she was special, different from other witches. Her father was a different kind of witch, and her mother was a hybrid. This alone allowed her to be one of the only vampires in existence to procreate. Although, her mother did not live long to tell the tale. She didn't know much about her father, just that he was in some kind of war, the wrong side of the war, apparently. He wasn't the best man, according to the stories she's heard. And he payed for this with his life. Now she and her uncle are in London, so they can be closer to the school she's been attending since she was 11, and as far away from Klaus Mickelson as humanly possible. Plus, London is practically infested with walking blood-bags. The silver lining on this rather blood infested hell-hole she calls her life now; she's caught in an weird love triangle with two guys who are literally worst enemies, the similarities her love life shares with that of the Petrova doublegangers is actually sickening. Boy does Damon Salvatore have his hands full.
