A Song of Ice and Fire by George R. R. Martin meets What Grows in the Dark by Jaq Evans, in this tale of fantasy and terror. 

***

A missing lady. A king whose grip on reality is loosening day by day. A forest hiding a nefarious secret. 

Princess Maysa Memor of Domhnall and the Crown Prince Remus Desher must give their all to find Lady Lysa Trellis. Some say she has been abducted, while others believe she has gone missing. Yet one thing is clear - the Æscford woods hold the answer about what really has happened to Lysa. 

As the princess and the prince set out with a search party comprising of Lysa's brother and betrothed, they hardly realise what waits for them in the woods. One horrifying event after the other, they will soon come to the conclusion that something is following them. Something inhumane. 

Elsewhere in the capital, King Ayan Desher is slowly losing his mind. After a terrible accident, his family realises that something happened to him decades ago in the same woods where Lysa Trellis has gone missing. History, it seems, is intent on repeating itself...

The Light of Miera: A Guard's Request (Book 1) by WriterMashashy
19 parts Complete Mature
(Epic Fantasy/LGBT Romance) COMPLETED & PUBLISHING A Guard's Request will be published with Fantastic Books Publishing in October of 2023, but I have decided to leave this early draft up for anyone who can't wait until then. With the creation of the Valnyr Galaxy, the Guardians vowed never to interfere with the affairs of the mortal realm. However, when sinister forces seek to steal the power of the Manastream, Alamantra's Guardian finds that some oaths are easier to keep than others. Life is about to change for the citizens of Freya as a blight sweeps across the land, corrupting the mana held within their bodies. Princess Arafrey finds herself stripped of all she holds dear, alone on the frontlines. However, there is hope as guards Reyla and Tharin take on a quest from the Gods to cure the sickness, leaving Freya to traverse the Ten Kingdoms in search of The Hand of Miera. But will they be able to find it in time? Meanwhile, in the East, The Duran Empire marshals their forces as the Emperor seeks to invade the starved desserts of Sudra. But the Sudra hold a terrible secret and Queen Nymati will not go down without a fight. * * * Imagine if Tim Burton and Joss Whedon got together to make a story to rival Full Metal Alchemist or Fairy Tail: that's my writing style. I hit some pretty deep topics but I try keep it light and entertaining. Trigger Warnings/Mature Content: I will post trigger warnings at the beginning of scenes to warn people, but let's make a list here just to be sure. Sex, survivors guilt, suicide, rape, murder, gay/lesbian sex, masturbation, assault, torture, addiction... There maybe more I missed, let me know if you feel I should add anything else.

Updates Every 1-2 Weeks - Excerpt- ...With trembling hands, Bea lifted the edge of the rug, revealing a flat hatch underneath. Without hesitation, she pulled it open, revealing a narrow hole with a ladder leading down into darkness. We all stared into the darkness, knowing it was our only hope to survive our impending dangers. I remarked, "I can't believe you actually have a bunker." "We need to hurry," she said, her voice urgent. "We don't know how much time we have before things go to hell." We exchanged brief glances at each other, all having witnessed unexpected disturbing events, worries weighing heavy on each of our minds. Just as Bea was about to take the first step, a deafening boom echoed through the sky, we went silent and were frozen with fear. Then another. Dozens of thunderous booms echoed in succession. I looked over to see the others, wearing horrified expressions on their faces. It was here.
