A dying Village that strangely enough never seems to die. Home to a small faithful remnant, unwilling to leave their home. When all seems lost, a light in the darkness appears, in the form of a young woman. This stranger brings light and hope back into their crumbling home, bringing things long gone, love and leadership. Unfortunately every action has a reaction, and not all of them are good. Not everyone has good intentions and sometimes you have to learn to lie, and to be careful who to trust. Join the journey and grow with the Village of Venna. Learn the truth of ancient mysteries, and what it takes to be the lord of a dying Village.

Little Light (GxG)
In a world that moves too fast, she's learning to breathe slowly. To feel again. To let someone touch the parts of her she thought were long gone. There are no crowns here. No thrones. Just the quiet war of learning how to be held without flinching. She doesn't beg for safety. She creates it in silence. And when she kneels, it's not for weakness- it's because she trusts. But trust has a pulse. And it just might be hers. A story of shadows softened by light, of control given, not taken. Of healing whispered through touch, and love written in silence. This isn't where the pain begins. It's where it learns to rest. ⚠️ WARNING ⚠️ : EMOTIONAL INTIMACY SUBSPACE SLOW-BURN HEALING TRIGGERING THEMES (VULNERABILITY, TRUST, PAST TRAUMA) 🔴 Tops: 🔴 1.

The Demon's Promise
Left on a lonely beach as a child, Seren was found by a kind couple and raised in a quiet coastal village - but the sea never forgot her, and neither did the darkness that brought her there. As Seren grows, strange things follow her: flickers of power, whispers in her dreams, a feeling that something is waiting just beyond the waves. Despite her warmth and quick wit, she's a troubled girl - haunted by visions she can't explain and a voice that sounds too much like her own. When tragedy strikes and Seren falls into a coma, she awakens in a world between life and death... and comes face-to-face with the truth: her mother is no human. She is a demon - ancient, furious, and ready to reclaim what she made. Seren escapes back to her world believing her mother's lies of love and redemption. But as the years pass, the sky begins to fracture, the oceans burn, and the truth surfaces - her mother is the one ending everything. Now, with her powers spiraling out of control and the world collapsing around her, Seren must face the woman who gave her life... and may be forced to take it away.Complete

Those Bloody Letters
In times of great trouble, one should be able to confide with confidence in at least one person. Be it a sister, a relative, a friend, or perhaps even a pet would suffice, but having not even a single soul is truly a great misfortune. Though it may be unfortunate, it is not the end of the world. You see, humans have always been the crafty bunch and solutions are not hard to come by. One girl in particular had a strong fondness for expressing all mishaps and fortunes by writing colorful letters to herself. Little did she know that there were always eyes watching the words formed by her quill... An original story by Abrianna Taylor. If you spot any mistakes, please let me know and thank you to anyone who reads this!
Even If It Breaks Me
The world ended quietly. Not with fire, not with warning-just silence, and the ruins left behind. Claira never asked to become a fighter. But survival doesn't wait for those who hesitate. Each step forward is heavier than the last, burdened by the memories she refuses to let go of and the people she refuses to stop searching for. Inside the fragile safety of an abandoned school, a group of strangers fights to hold onto something like hope. Outside its fences, the road is endless, broken, and filled with threats that never sleep. And somewhere out there-whether in the ashes, the shadows, or the miles ahead-are the answers Claira can't stop chasing. A story of survival, memory, and the thin line between holding on and letting go.
