This story follows a trio of young adventurers: Saffron, Ushi, and Meow. They embark on a quest to find the legendary Seven Orbs, traversing a world where humans and youkai (man-eating supernatural creatures and the likes) coexist, but not without tensions.
Saffron is a human, not quite an adult yet. Ushi is a half-youkai adopted by Saffron's family, a few years younger than him. Meow, on the other hand, is a mysterious youkai wanderer from a distant land.

Their journey unfolds through a series of events and challenges, from encountering various youkai, villages and underground cities, to forming alliances with a Covenant of Witches and confronting powerful beings far beyond their understanding. 

Throughout the story, these three undergo profound transformations, facing moral dilemmas, overcoming personal obstacles, and challenging societal norms. From understanding the complexities of magic, to the emotional arcs of the trio, this story explores themes of identity, morality, and the nature of power.

DISCLAIMER: regarding the AI illustrations in this story; I plan on commissioning a real artist once I have enough money to replace all the AI art in this. If you don't like AI art, just ignore them. It'll change eventually.

Edit: I would put spotify links to the music I used in each scene, but Wattpad doesn't let spotify links work, so youtube it is.

The Starlight Pact by chailatte24
25 parts Ongoing
In this world, humans live unaware of the existence of magic, but some possess latent abilities-like the ability to manipulate elements. These people are born into powerful families that control magic, and each family is bound by an ancient pact made long ago, a pact that prohibits their magical powers from being used outside of their realms. However, there is one loophole: the rarest of "starlight-born" individuals can create a link between realms, and these people are born once every century. Our protagonist, Lyra, is a young woman who has grown up in a family with no magical bloodline. She's spent most of her life feeling like an outsider, knowing her family is poor and ordinary, while others live in splendor thanks to their magical heritage. One night, after a strange celestial event, she begins to develop strange abilities-powers that seem to transcend the natural world. Meanwhile, Dorian, the mysterious heir to the Fire Realm, comes into her life. He's seen the prophecy of the Starlight Pact-the rare individual who can bridge the gap between the realms-and believes Lyra is the one destined to reunite the fractured magic. But there's a catch: the pact is tied to love, and the connection between them is not just magical-it's romantic. As their bond grows, they uncover a dark conspiracy within the magical families. Some believe the pact should never be fulfilled, fearing it will destroy the delicate balance between realms. Now, Lyra and Dorian must navigate their budding romance, with trust, betrayal, and danger closing in from every side. The fate of their worlds rests on whether their love can transcend the boundaries between magic and reality.

In a world where 80% of the population has developed unique mutations in their genetic codes, giving them "superpowers", or "quirks", as they call it, it doesn't take long for fantasy and imagination to emerge out of the earth. And further, it doesn't take long for roles of "Heroes" and "Villains" to rise up as well. But... Who coins one as a "hero" or a "villain"...? The person themselves...? Or the people around them...? Light... Dark... Dusk... Dawn... Two sides of the same coin... Twilight... --- Kageyama Kazuma is a 16 year old boy, aspiring to follow his late father's footsteps, and become a hero who saves people. But... Not all can go as planned, or wished, right?

Being a human at the end of the day, she can only do so much. Follow Kageyama through his journey to becoming one of the greatest heroes in the entirety of Japan. What awaits him on this journey?

Aetherwell by BDCochran24
24 parts Ongoing Mature
"Aetherwell" is a tapestry woven with threads of love, confusion, and raw, untamed chaos. At its heart lies Solona, a teenager utterly unlike any other. Raised in the secluded simplicity of a forgotten corner of the world, she grew up in the profound ignorance of humanity's true nature. The very concept of magic, the mystical currents that flow beneath the surface of reality, was utterly foreign to her until the day she was found. Lost and adrift, a flicker of vulnerability in the vast wilderness, she was discovered by the coven - a clandestine group whose existence shattered her naive worldview. Plunged into a world of arcane rituals and hidden power, Solona grapples with a maelstrom of emotions. She's overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of her latent abilities, powers that bloom haphazardly, both exhilarating and terrifying in their unpredictability. Every spell is a struggle, a dance with forces she barely understands, and fear often whispers at her shoulders, threatening to consume her. But amidst this dizzying transformation, a new feeling blossoms, a forbidden flame sparked by the enigmatic presence of Dorian. Dorian is the embodiment of everything Solona is not: composed, brilliant, and effortlessly powerful. He is the top student, the star pupil of the coven, his magic imbued with precision and grace. He moves through this world of enchantments with a confidence that both intimidates and captivates Solona. As she struggles to master her powers, a burgeoning passion for this captivating young man takes root, further complicating her already tumultuous journey. Aetherwell isn't just about magic; it's about the fragile beauty of first love blooming amidst the storm, and the chaotic path of self-discovery in a world that has suddenly become far more complex than she ever imagined.
