Orryn, marked by his past and the harsh truths of survival, finds that redemption and courage can emerge from the most unlikely places. And Ryland, the wahrheitssprecher, confronts the darkness of Frostvale with a resolve that challenges the very essence of fear and fate.
As their stories intertwine, a tapestry of adventure, legacy, and the unyielding bonds of the seafarers unfolds. With every chapter, the truth of their destinies grows clearer, and the path to salvation lies in the very waves that seek to claim them. Dive into a saga where courage, sacrifice, and the search for truth navigate the most treacherous voyage of all-the journey to one's own heart.

To Sand, To Sea: An Eilosian Ballad
[Set in Eilos, the world of 'Echoes of the Reach', and can be read standalone.] Where ripples of the past lead, the tidal waves of history soon follow. Jaster Brand is an artificing prodigy. From enchanted tools to automaton companions to his own right arm, his passion for arcane engineering has carried him to the Malkest Throne's biggest cities in search of work. Working with his fellow travelling apprentice, the rookie hunter Astrid Forrester, they scrape up enough money to support themselves and their families. On Jaster's latest visit home, however, something changes. The road to Flatsands transforms into a sunken cove, a seabound scape of sand and shells cut off from the wider world. Worse still, the village itself is abandoned, its residents vanished and their homes claimed by an insidious dark coral. Mysteries rise at every turn, yet none more startling than the sudden reappearance of Calypso, Jaster's one-time imaginary friend pulled back by forces unknown. Stranded together in a drowning village, the three must race to find the missing villagers, undo the curse that has befallen Flatsands, and face the ancient threat that stirs beneath the blackened waves. *** Cover and chapter-end banner skilfully crafted by the wizard of legend @-DeeIsDead- (thank you so much again, Dee!)
Anomaly of Thra
Helen went from being next to the river at her family's cabin to a situation that seemed like it was right out of a fantasy novel. Her studies had been going well, yet she couldn't help but yearn for something more as she got lost in the pages. Now she's stranded in a strange world, with even stranger little people. Dragged in to cure a poisoned Thra, visions begin bombarding her mind: corrosive violet bursting up through bloodied ground and pale, wild eyes. After her touch heals an injured sifan, Helen's rescuers bring her to the Mainland to seek the wisdom of the creatures they call 'skeksis'. The road home feels even more impossible as she catches the attention of the Lords of the Crystal and their ailing Emperor.

Coward's Compass [One Piece x Fem!Reader]
[ "Let me join your crew." "No. I don't like you." He says with a large grin on his face. ] You were never sure if you truly had gotten cursed all those years ago or if you were just unlikeable. It didn't matter much either way-life on the seas hadn't exactly been kind. Everywhere you went, trouble seemed to follow, like a storm cloud hanging over your head. Some would call it bad luck; others could say that it was karma. You just called it another reason to keep running. Running from the past. From the whispers of a self you barely remembered anymore. But when a less than ideal encounter with a rowdy group of pirates offers you a glimmer of purpose-and perhaps a way to prove you're more than the coward they all think you are-you're forced to make a choice: keep running or face the storm. Cowards don't sail to the ends of the earth, and the seas don't forgive those who refuse to fight. You're free... aren't you?

Adversity {18+}
What's home, if not the first place you flee from? What's love, if not that blazing, unexplainable feeling born from the ashes of hate?

Scarred by her parents' past turbulent relationship, which left her emotionally guarded, she endures her family's relentless efforts to marry her off. Then one day, her tranquil world is set ablaze when she collides with a man who redefines arrogance. Davian Ash. Ruthless, enigmatic, and wealthy beyond comprehension. He's a businessman with a shadowy past, and a darkness that clings to him like an impenetrable skin. His piercing green eyes unsettle her. Her big brown eyes infuriate him. His arrogance leaves her off balance. Her quick wit angers and fascinates him. His broodiness chills her. Her quirky attitude irks him. They both despise each other, but the chemistry between them is undeniable. When she inadvertently takes something precious from him, Davian's revenge forces them into closer proximity, and the emotions they harbor grow even more intense. Despite the adversity he drowns her in, she and her subconscious can't help but fan-girl over him, craving things she knows she shouldn't. She tries to resist falling for a man like him. An embodiment of everything she fears, a mirror of the toxicity she vowed never to bear again. And yet, as he lets her unravel the layers of his harsh exterior, uncovering the raw humanity underneath, she's forced to confront an uncomfortable truth: the beast has a soul, and it's a soul she can't ignore. Will she prove everyone right once again about how weak she is and let him in? Forgive his transgressions, dare to love the man who turned her world into ashes? Did the flames he put her through destroy her, or did they transform her into something far stronger than anyone, including herself, could ever gave her credit for?

I won't survive. I'm sure of it. Strong wind ruffles through my clothes and hardly allows my eyes to remain open. I'm surprised that I'm still standing on the rock and haven't been tossed into the whirlwind. Huge waves crash down upon the rocks making deafening sounds. I open my eyes wide enough to see the next wave coming. As it comes towards the rock, it reaches the height of a three-storey building and seems to loom over me for some time, like a monster looking at its prey with hungry eyes, before finally crashing down towards me like a waterfall. While it comes down one single thought comes in my mind. This is how I die. Then the waters devour me. ___________________________________________ What's the worst crime you could ever commit?
