** When their beloved mistress is murdered, a white raven and a black fox embark on a journey for revenge. Will the brave familiars manage to recover the stolen heart in time - or would they lose themselves? **
"Sometimes love is
what drives you to take your next breath.
Other times, it's revenge."
- ONC24EN Prompt #27 -
When the guardian of a fairy grove is cruelly murdered for the source of her power, her two familiars and faithful protectors are left broken and lost.
But soon, their despair changes, and from this moment on, they are driven by one desire alone: Revenge.
They embark on a death-defying journey with the little strength they have left to reclaim the stolen heart. Will the black fox Cian and the white Raven Lir manage together to steal back the soul of their beloved mistress before their magic is used up and their lives are forfeit?
Or will they turn back into what they once were and lose themselves forever?
Time is running out, because the two nature spirits don't have much fairy magic left, as the cruel thief has his own sinister plans...

Entropy with a Cause
Charlie Potter (fem!Harry) is alone. Her godfather is dead, her friends have turned away. Raven-yes, ex-Titans Raven-dangerous, powerful, and not quite human-offers her friendship, support, knowledge, a way to survive. Maybe even... more? Charlie discovers family, and they help her recover her heritage and ultimately her freedom in this fourth year (Triwizard) Harry Potter AU. It'll end up at around 40 chapters. This story contains severe Dumbledore bashing. Fans of McGonagall or Ron won't be happy either. Frankly, most characters incl. Hermione do not come out looking great. Some bridges are (somewhat) mended at the end. Fans of Flitwick, the Tonks' or the Delacours can rest easy ;)Complete

Foxtale [Vol. 1] - Ley of the Land
Cael is cargo. Bought, sold, and about to be handed to a buyer who's already paid in something worse than gold-until he breaks his cage and runs into Kymera, a marsh so drowned in wild magic that its rivers glow and its ruins whisper. There he meets Eldinor: a white fox arcanist, alone but for a bad-tempered raven, who tells him plainly that he doesn't belong here and can't stay. Cael follows him home anyway. He has nowhere else to go and the magic waking in his blood will kill him if the fox doesn't teach him to control it. But Cael's old owners haven't given up. A wounded slaver with something to prove, an old mercenary who's tired of the blood on his hands, and an imperial sorceress who sees Cael as property of a fallen empire are all closing in on the swamp, and on the secret Eldinor has buried there for years. Some things you have to face together. And some lies are told out of love. A dark-fantasy found-family story about hope, trust, and the cost of protecting someone from the truth.
