Charlotte, Beckett, Swanmere lives as her father's untrimmed hedge.

Merlot Rainbaum searches for a miracle cure to heal her mother, who is none other than the Queen of the Mermaids.

Railey Ferntoss, renown across the Western Sector as the Dragon Master, can't finish off the illegal trades of dragon hunters without new networks popping up in the black market like a festering fungus.

One fate-altering event allows Beckett's illustrious father a way to finally be rid of his elvaniac daughter: the murder of his dragon vet sister. 

Under the guise of settling her aunt's estate, located all the way out in the Western Sector, Beckett finds herself disowned, alone, and lost on the fringes of the world she's always known.

Child messengers from the Goddess, predatory Dark Elf villagers, and the furry, winged surprise of a lifetime settle Beckett into a tumultuous new life. And she hasn't even met the other main characters yet!

You are invited into the murky black market of the Goddess's Femur, a land of elves and other fae folk. Humorous and philosophical, pet owners may connect with the plight of a vet and her dragon. Don't expect laughter the entire time, though, for at its core, A Failure of a High Elf forces us to accept our most regrettable mistakes and fight through our self-imposed powerlessness to try and find the clear skies on the other side.

GENRES: *fantasy,* slice of life, mystery

Fauna Clarice Rheasydia is one of two of the most feared assassins in all of Ker. The Ebony Nightingale. Trained since four, her identity has been kept secret, leaving only rumors of her bloody wake to whisper through the streets. Little do they know that the blood pooling at her feet isn't that of her victims, but instead that of someone she may have never truly known. Lance Arthur Rheasydia, The Sinister Fox. Trained alongside his sister to protect those he cares for, more so now than ever after the death of his soulmate and betrayal of his best friend. He has no path left to follow aside from that of his family, and even that is beginning to narrow. Or is it widening? Darius Zandro Rosendal is sick of playing the picture-perfect Crown Prince of Vandaria. His father sees nothing but a ghost when he's nearby, too busy praying to the Gods and their Saints that his wife's womb carries another boy. Darius's life force runs through the veins of his guard and best friends. He has the family he wants, all the luxury wealth can buy, but still finds something missing. That is until an unexpected visitor gives him hope for the life he's only dreamt of. Can they keep the demons coming from every direction from breaking down the walls? Are they capable of fulfilling their destiny? Or will they fail and damn the world to its crumbling end? This is just the beginning, and hope is running thin. **Average Word Count Per Chapter: 4,000 **Edited (x1) LET ME KNOW IF YOU SPOT GRAMMAR ISSUES!

Sabine has spent the past decade hiding from the Wild Hunt. But when a charismatic stranger recruits her to retrieve an invaluable artifact, she'll have to finally reveal her identity... and her dark secrets. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * The darkness holds more than just secrets... Marked for death, Sabine escaped from her home more than ten years ago. But the Wild Hunt will never give up. It should have been easy to stay hidden. All Sabine had to do was keep her head down, avoid telling anyone about her past, and above all else -- not let her glamour drop. Even the best-laid plans eventually fall apart. When a charismatic stranger arrives in the city, Sabine finds herself unwittingly drawn to the power she can sense hidden within him. Keeping her distance is nearly impossible, especially after a life debt is called due and she's tasked into helping steal a rare artifact. Sabine is the only one who can break the magical barriers protecting the item, but that means revealing the truth about her identity and exposing her darkest secrets. Unfortunately, the Fae aren't the only ones hunting her. And the most dangerous monsters aren't always confined to the dark.
