Fiction, adventure, action. In a world shaped by legends, lost empires, and the lingering presence of dragons, a lone wanderer named Ryoshi lives in the remote village of The Dragon's Gift. Scarred by his past and harboring secrets even he dares not voice, he finds solace in isolation-until fate forces him to act.

When a fateful encounter leads him to Serena, a determined young woman seeking answers about the world's hidden forces, Ryoshi is pulled back into the chaos he once left behind. As they journey through cursed lands and forgotten ruins, they uncover fragments of a long-buried history-one that ties them to an ancient power feared by kings and worshiped by demons.

But Ryoshi's past is not just his own burden to bear. Whispers of That Man, a figure from legend, begin to surface. And as enemies close in, the question lingers-who, or what, is Ryoshi really?

Princess Snow and the Empress by AllyCwrites
37 parts Complete Mature
WATTY'S 2022 SHORTLIST🏅A Qing Dynasty Snow White fairytale retelling with a Princess Mononoke twist. Featured on @Wattpad's Fantasy Adventures reading list and @WattpadExplorer. ***** Snow is anything but the submissive princess the Jade Palace expects her to be. Her foster mothers find her impossible, her royal tutor labels her incorrigible, and she recently threatened to shave her head if she were forced to marry. When the Empress presents her with an opportunity to go on the imperial spring hunt with the princes and her not-so-secret crush, Prince Erden, Snow jumps at the chance. Who knew that that would lead to an assassination attempt, a harrowing escape, and her getting hopelessly lost in a dark forest during a thunderstorm--with no survival skills whatsoever. The only things she has to help her survive are lots of moxie and latent magical powers she inherited from her deceased mother. Oh, and an ethereally white fox that led seven old dwarves to her. With the Empress's malicious intent now revealed, Snow must discover her true strength, who her mother really is, and what magical powers she wields, in order to find her way back to Erden. If she fails, she might never see him again and die a lonely old crone in the mountains. . . or get murdered anyway when the bloodthirsty Empress--said to have fantastical powers of her own--comes for Snow.

In the Moonlight by TatiaSamaelPetrova

A girl in a white veil, the forest calls her to itself. She will be lost in it forever. A quiet voice, a whisper leads his bride far away. Somewhere there stands an old castle, a cursed prince dwells within its walls. When the full moon rises in the night sky, the monster awakens. The white veil of the bride turns crimson. A story as old as time. Nereyeny ran towards the forest as if her life was at stake. She hesitated for a moment before crossing the line of no return. She looked back at the place where she had grown up, lived, and was supposed to die and lie in the ground there forever. All her life layed there, everything except the one thing she longed for the most. Freedom. "Nereyeny!" They were already looking for her. She couldn't afford to hesitate any longer. She turned on her heel and stepped into the darkness. She knew that no one would dare to chase her there. Only a fool. People were afraid of the cursed forest. Eyes watching your every step. Whispers leading you into the void. Creatures from the depths of hell itself. They say dark forces dwell there, no one who goes in will ever come out. And Nereyeny was proof that it was all a lie, spending almost every day there, running under the treetops like a wild wolf. She didn't believe those tales. About the full moon. About the proud prince. About the curse. Until she too became one of those lost in its bowels. Trapped in the same trap as Prince Astreus, son of the Sun and the Moon. A proud prince, real, made of flesh and blood, who is not at all like she has heard of him. At least the fairy tales are wrong about one thing. And maybe they are wrong about everything. Secrets, pride, the whims of the gods, and maybe even fate itself. A burnt-out faith in breaking the curse. Nereyeny must now find a way out before the next full moon comes and the monster finds her.
