A Circle of Iron
These are the last days of the Old Empire and magic is fading from the world. In the ruined city of Eldernost, disgraced knights, desperate scavengers, cunning merchants, hedge wizards and alchemists, dangerous opportunists and daring adventurers all seek the precious traces of remnant magic that promise wealth and immortality. But deep in the vast forest expanse of the Greenwell, the savage, blood-drinking wights watch the invaders with ravenous eyes and plot to defend their homeland. Across the known world, nations clash and kingdoms are shattered as great powers struggle for control of the last reserves of fading magic on which empires and noble dynasties were built.Complete
The God Who Forgot
In a world of restored magic, humans had only one refuge city under the protection of a wizard-king as the magical hybrids sought genocide on them. After a ten-thousand year reign, the wizard decided to retire, and chooses five citizens to compete for his throne. The ceremony was suddenly interupted as a flock of harpies stole their souls and flew off to the ends of the earth. They had one year for one of them to retrieve their lost soul and ascend the throne, or the city would become defenseless and seal humanity’s doom.Complete
The boy that became the end
He was bound by prophecy. Raised in shadow. Forged in loss. The prince was never meant to survive. He was meant to become. In a kingdom ruled by silence and fear, thirteen towers rise like judgment from the earth-watching, waiting. Within their shadow, a boy grows into legend. Haunted by grief, hunted by fate, he walks a path carved in blood and memory. Every step is a reckoning. Every breath, a defiance. This is the story of a child who was told he was nothing-who faced betrayal, exile, and the death of all he loved. And yet, he rose. Not as a hero. Not as a king. But as something deeper. Something sacred. A vessel of truth. A flame that would not die. Watch as the young prince overcomes hatred, loss, and the weight of legacy to become what his people never dared hope for. Witness the cost of transformation. The beauty of resilience. And the moment when death itself bows to purpose. He was the end of what was. And the beginning of what must be.Complete

Five more dark red streaks.Complete
