"Shadows of Rebellion" unfolds in a realm gripped by the oppressive rule of a mysterious wizard known as "the one." In the city of Eldertown, Grinly Whitley, a young boy, witnesses the brutal murder of his parents by the wizard's guards, launching him into a world tainted by fear and betrayal.

Fleeing with his older brother Jaxon, Grinly escapes through a hidden tunnel used by rebels seeking refuge from the tyrannical rule. The two brothers, along with their unlikely ally Garret Ironforge, a skilled blacksmith, embark on a perilous journey to evade capture and uncover the truth behind the wizard's malevolent reign.

As Grinly grapples with the trauma of loss and his newfound status as someone "special," the trio navigates a world teeming with magical beings, hidden passages, and the ever-looming threat of the wizard's guards. Each step brings them closer to a network of rebels, a chance for justice, and the revelation that the wizard's tyranny might be a mere puppetry for a darker force-a demon pulling the strings from the shadows.

Amidst the enchanting landscapes and the perils that lie ahead, Grinly discovers untapped strength within himself. Jaxon, driven by a fierce determination to protect his brother, becomes a beacon of resilience. Garret, the blacksmith with a tragic past, imparts his wisdom and combat prowess to guide them through the treacherous journey.

The narrative weaves a tapestry of suspense, familial bonds, and the indomitable spirit of resistance. Grinly's journey is one of self-discovery, from the shattered innocence of witnessing his parents' demise to embracing a destiny that transcends the ordinary.

As the trio faces escalating dangers and confronts the wizard's guards in intense battles, their bond strengthens, forging a makeshift family in a world where alliances are fragile. The forest becomes their sanctuary, a realm where shadows and secrets intertwine with the roots of ancient trees.

Torin has always felt out of place in his small village. Despite the familiarity of his surroundings, he cannot shake the feeling that he doesn't belong. He longs for a place where he can truly be himself, away from the expectations of his people, a life free of the stifling weight of conformity. His dreams are filled with a sense of belonging, a vision of a life where he is accepted for who he is, not for who others expect him to be. One fateful day, while attending the annual Dragon Safe Arena, where dragons are brought to be killed for sport and fear, something extraordinary happens. A black dragon, larger and more majestic than any Torin has ever seen, enters the arena. The crowd erupts in excitement, but Torin feels an unexpected connection. The dragon's eyes lock onto his, and in that moment, he hears a voice-not in his ears, but in his mind. The dragon speaks to him, its words clear, yet impossible: "I see you, young one. You do not belong here." In a shock of realization, Torin understands the dragon's plea. No one else can hear it, no one else can understand the words-but Torin can. At that moment, everything changes. He chooses to defy the world he's always known, running away with the dragon, escaping the village that never understood him. As they journey together, seeking refuge in the wilds, they encounter other teens-four others-each of whom carries their own special gift. They, too, are misfits. One has the power to control the wind, another can manipulate shadows, a third can speak to animals, and the last can heal with a touch. The group of them, united by their unique abilities, form an unlikely family.

'The largest egg in mountain high, will give to you the wings of sky.' We all know how the SkyWing egg was lost right? Well, in this world, what if the SkyWing egg didn't shatter? What if the dragonet inside it actually survived? What if the SkyWing was hidden in a deep pit with only a sick IceWing guardian to take care of? After ten years, when the war of the SandWing Succession has finally come to a glorious ending and the Eye of Onyx has crowned Thorn as their new SandWing queen, Soaren, the surviving SkyWing, has been having trouble living in the pit for ten years all his life. He wanted to see the world. He wanted the sun to finally touch his scales. He wanted to spread his wings freely. His very, very large wings. When his IceWing guardian was about to die of SandWing venom, Soaren was determined to save him by travelling to the Rainforest, where he heard he could retrieve the cure for the venom. It would have been easier than going to the Sand Kingdom. But as Soaren flies through his journey, he meets a peculiar dragon as he passes the Sea Kingdom and some interesting dragons while he stays in the Rainforest. However, a strange occurrence happened at Jade Mountain. He and a few friends try to solve the mystery, gathering up all the clues while the SkyWing wonders if he should go back to his guardian. Soaren had hid his true identity as the 'lost' SkyWing, but he needs to eventually open up. With the NightWings in the Rainforest, more mind readers will be born and they'll find out who he is. But worst of all, he'll have to face something far more terrible than anyone could have imagined... Disclaimer: I do not own any of these characters from the best book series in the world, they are the characters of the great and magnificent Tui T. Sutherland. The only characters I own are my OCs. P.S I give full credit to my awesome fanfiction writer friend for coming up with this fanfiction and credit to Book-dragon-Wof who helped with ideas.
