A tranquil life of peace, power and prosperity was enough for alchemist Edward Synfyrma. Lounging about in luxury, swimming in gold-a perfect break from the challenging world outside indeed!

But when he is pushed onto the abyss of crime and murder, things get colder. Tensions rise as influential people are murdered mysteriously, and shrewd gazes dart towards him. Swords are pointed at each other in suspicion as even the closest of friends transpire to be traitors, and as the tragedy of his past looms in a revival, Edward would have to forsake all the grandeur and delve into a dangerous rabbit hole where more than the power of friendship and skills, he would need his own tact to survive in the cutthroat world of Legendarium and its harsh politics.All Rights Reserved

A Stupid Girl's Book Of Dreams by rottingcrystal_riot

Nobody wants to read a sad story. Maybe indulge in an article of something tragic, and that's all it will ever be. Do you remember the sad stories? Do the tragedies mark the brains of the world as core memories? Or do they simply remain stories, a void in the universe made from a person's lifelong suffering that will be instantly forgotten. But never by the sufferer. This is a sad story, one about a girl. It stays that way, for a long time. Don't worry, she doesn't end the story stuck in tragedy. Imagine the pain of not a soul to pour your heart out to. instead of letting it go, you relive it in your head at every lonely hour, aching and crying, your heart begging to let someone else in, to make the weight of the secret lighter. The pain of trying to keep all of that pain to yourself? It's like feeling it all again and again, killing you from the inside out. The weight of a secret, and the fear of what will happen once someone, just one person knows. Sierra James was seventeen years old and had just begun her junior year of high school. Her father was a cruel man, and her mother had been dead since she was a child. There was nobody there for her, and it was the loneliest, most painful feeling in the world. Until, that is, a troublesome boy with reckless priorities (and could easily get Sierra killed) comes into the picture, and she sees her life either beginning to look up, or come crashing down at a rapid pace.

A Dance in the Dark (Book 1) by JhulyxOliveira

[ magic, romance and madness. ] Everyone knew that a romance between a guardian and their protégé always ended in tragedy - yet they risked it. One day, I read that in real-life fairy tales, the princess sometimes needs to befriend the dragon and kill the prince, perhaps not to the most extreme extent, considering the prince's utility. (*Wink*). Twenty years had passed since the demise of the last living descendant bearing the bloodline of a potent family within the mystical realm. Individuals who possessed magic more formidable than anyone could have fathomed and that very magic could be pilfered if they were to meet an untimely end-a rumour ignited like wildfire. Word began to spread about the sole surviving member of the Lysion family, the last vestige of a lineage renowned for their blessings from the gods (or, as some argue, their curses), once no more than bedtime tales for children. Two decades earlier, a game of hide and seek unfolded that culminated in the death of the final Lysion at the hands of Oldo Blake, a formidable figure in the annals of history. Or so the story goes. An obscure girl. A concealed secret. A relentless pursuit. With a motley crew of bewildering Other Siders on her trail and an absolute dearth of knowledge on how to harness her precious magic, Rosélina Johnson's life transformed from that of an inconspicuous university student to that of a fugitive in the mystic realm, utterly unprepared for what lay ahead.
