THERON (Book III In The Ancients Series) ✔
(Please read Theron 1 before moving on to this book) A stranger washes ashore on a deserted beach. With no memory of who or what he is, the only clue he has to his identity--the only thing he recalls from his past life--is a single, solitary name: Lina. But on a planet with over seven billion inhabitants, his only chance of finding her rests solely within the hands of Fate itself... and the help of a sassy, young street rat. A child's life hangs in the balance--a child whose blood is so unique it has the power to change the course of the future for one group of supernaturals in particular... and this group doesn't howl at the moon. For Lina and the other Ancients, a new war is brewing and in a very literal sense. This battle will not be fought with bullets and teeth like the massacre at Superlunar, but rather with magic and wit and maybe a little divine intervention. So, how do you fight an evil you can't touch? How do you stop a weapon you can't see? And how to you protect the ones you have no memory of loving? Easy! You have to remember what you don't know you knew... You have to remember who you are... You just have to remember. ⚠️ This story is marked "Mature" for a reason.

A Chronicles of the Fantasia Continent
Two divine sisters tore a newborn world apart-and left mortals to decide its fate. From the Creator's dream rose Aeliana, Goddess of Dawn and order, and Nyx, Queen of Shadows and possibility. Their rivalry, once a distant celestial dance, became open war. Lesser gods chose sides. The sisters descended and forged champions: the radiant Aethra and the fearsome Umbrals-masterworks so specialized that, in some gifts, they rivaled their makers. Stars went dark. The earth split. In grief and fury, the Creator bound His daughters deep beneath the world. The land took a new name: Aethelgard-the God-Prison. But their armies fought on. Seeking balance, the Creator spent his last spark to make Humanity-creatures of compassion and cruelty, capable of mediating light and shadow, and, through discipline, of climbing toward godhood itself. Apotheosis became the ultimate mortal dream. A thousand years of uneasy peace followed. Ambition broke it. The War of a Hundred Races redrew the map in blood. From the ruins rose seven powers, with fragile city-states between them. In secret, Aethra and Umbrals manipulated the living like pieces on a board. Now the stalemate frays. Old songs stir. Hidden weapons wake. Heroes and monsters-sometimes the same-move in the dark to claim a future neither goddess could foresee. Welcome to Aethelgard, where gods are buried, mortals reach for heaven, and one choice can unmake a world.
Kratos x Reader

Now, after the adventure of bedding his wife's ashes to their final rest has ended, Kratos hoped to retreat and spend calm years with his son, Atreus. Needless to say that he is not thrilled as you crash through his roof. To make things worse, you are actually some sort of godly being yourself that has been freshly robbed of its powers. Now, it is your task to convince Kratos to help you kill Thor, in order to get your powers back.Complete
Nyxia & Wawa: TWIN SHADOWS OF THE FORGOTTEN
In a world where humans hunt demi-humans for sport, two orphaned girls cling to each other for survival. Nyxia, a mysterious demon girl born of a failed experiment to resurrect an ancient evil, hides her horns and tail beneath her cloak. Wawa, a half sea-bunny demi-human with an unknown lineage, carries the blood of something far more powerful than anyone realizes. Adopted into the same home, the two become inseparable sisters, facing hardship, prejudice, and the harshness of a world determined to erase them. But when a god reveals their destiny - to restore balance by finding the scattered relics and reawakening legendary weapons - their bond is tested in ways they never imagined. Together, they fight through brutal trials, clash with kings, and uncover truths about their pasts that shake the foundation of who they are. Yet shadows follow them closely - embodied in the Crimson Rouge, a masked killer whose blade moves faster than death itself... and who hides a bloodline secret that changes everything. As the sisters grow from children to warriors, betrayal tears them apart, destiny drags them forward, and war between humans and demi-humans threatens to end the world. To save it, Nyxia and Wawa must stand side by side - or watch everything they love vanish into shadow.Complete

The Prophecy Lied
Seventeen years ago, a daughter was born in flame. Raised by demons. Forged for conquest. Nyx, the only child of Dazareth-the King of the Underworld-is prophesied to bring the land of the living, Gaia, to its knees. Trained in fire, war, and obedience, she wears her power like a crown and walks with the pride of a weapon perfected. But on the eve of her descent into Gaia, secrets rise from the shadows of prophecy. Her mother-Lilith, a vanished mind-weaver-returns with a truth too dangerous to speak aloud. Nyx is not a conqueror. She is the cost. Betrayed and cast into a world she was meant to destroy, Nyx awakens powerless, her memories fractured, her runes sealed. The only clue to her past: a forest, a stranger, and a city where magic is tamed and truth is buried. Now, hidden among scholars and soldiers at the Academy of Arcanon, Nyx must unravel the legacy etched into her bones. But as her fire stirs, so do the cracks in the world-and in herself. Because Gaia remembers what Hell tried to erase. And so does she.Complete
