Ascending Light by Nethathiat

Crysen hails from a powerful and noble lineage of light fairies and is expected to uphold his mother's legacy. However, he has yet to awaken his power and continues to wait for his time to come. When it finally does, there is no escape from destiny and he must learn to use his power or watch as the entire realm is destroyed. With the help of his newly discovered friends, he must overcome the threat to the realm and learn to use his powers. At least, he is not alone but will having them there help or hinder him? 2021 Note: This is the original version of the story which is now being rewritten into a novel worthy of Crysen. I have long debated on what to do about this book and have finally decided to start over and create something even better, for Crysen and for myself. However, I will not take this down because I see it as a vital piece of my history, as well as Crysen's. Thank you.

The Protector by Gingers_Moon_

We all like to think we'd help those in need, but could you constantly put your life and sanity on the line just to protect people you don't even know? Well she did. In fact, it was sadly her purpose. Like most teenagers who have lost someone, Lucy fell into a less than preferred lifestyle. She had her troubles, like everyone else. But her problems were bigger than she thought, and led to a lot more anguish than she would have liked. See, living under the shadow of great expectations leaves a strain on your self-esteem. Going through a massive revelation could ruin your life and test your limits. The burning pain of sacrifice, loss and death should kill her. The gods saw something in Lucy for a reason, one she just needs to find through a tortuous journey with a bit of clawing, biting and changing. Love will blossom, relationships will be repaired, and her resilience will prevail. *Book one of The Legends*

Fate and Destiny (The Fated Series, #2) by _Hiraeth_Author_

A kingdom across the sea, a man in pain clawing at a hated king who bears two shadows who protect him. A child, born from a mother with the powers of the Gods, screaming at a blood-soaked bed. A boy, a Prince, kind and full of the flame of life, sitting beneath a moon bug lit sky. Darkness enfolds the lands, its grasp claiming the continent and making its way from an already broken island, only to be stopped by the hands of fate. The hands of the girl and the Prince, and their love for the people in need of protection. This is their prophecy. This is their destiny and their fate depends on it. The Elemental rulers and their family are just beginning to find allies from unlikely and unimaginative places while creatures of myth and legend resurface from their campfire tales, and things aren't going as planned, so they'll have to find myths and legends of their own. Shouldn't be too hard. #6 - #strong-heroine #41 - #banter **Average Word Count Per Chapter: 8,000 **Edited (x2) LET ME KNOW IF YOU SPOT GRAMMAR ISSUES! *****Last Edited: 12/14/2024 NOTE FROM ME! - I very much model my works to resemble published examples, so there are no notes in any chapters from me, trigger warnings for chapters, etc. Just the world my brain likes to escape to every now and then.

For 500 years, the war between the Magi has been raging. The future seems bleak. Unless the Magitrix shall come. ---- Chris Robinson is an (accidental) arsonist. Wherever he goes, a fire goes with him, leaving him confused and frustrated. But when a shadow being attacks him on the way home from school, and he is rescued by a dragon and its rider, he learns that he is a Fire Magi- a being that can magically produce fire. He is among the Magitrix, Magi who were gifted with special powers from birth in order to save the world, and he must be trained to fully serve his purpose. However, when trouble strikes, he must work with the other members of the Magitrix - Jasper Lee, his best friend who has always had strange healing powers; Summer Day, a sassy, smart, and extremely closeted lesbian who hates him; and Odin Waters, popular but someone who has never felt like he could be himself - to get to the bottom of the mysteries of the Light Kingdom. A danger is lurking, and he and his friends may be the only one who can stop it. (Multiple POVs) (Permanently Unfinished)

A Storm of Paper Starlings by inka_york

What if the ordinary family you crave finds you? Only they're not ordinary, neither are you, and neither are the vampire neighbours raising your twin sister. An accident is all it takes to turn my mundane life in a London children's home upside down. Power and magic lurk at the priory, my new home in the Oxfordshire countryside, and I learn fast that nothing is ordinary around here. Not my newfound family-the Penhaligons. Not my long-lost twin sister. And not the hostile new neighbours-a coven of vampires, vaewolves and demons. As I grapple with family secrets, four powerful new brothers, and latent abilities of my own, my sister and the man who raised her find themselves in mortal danger-a danger that draws me and my family into a battle to save them. Finally embracing the meaning of family, two questions burn at the back of my mind. If vampires and demons exist, what are the Penhaligons? And what am I? ~~~ This story contains sibling banter, precious friendships, bitey neighbours, and terrible goats. It's already published at all major online retailers, along with the rest of the series. But if you want to read it on my subscription, the whole series is in the Bloodborn Archive tier (five bucks).
