Embark on a voyage through the eyes of those bound by the sea in "Echoes of the Ocean." This odyssey weaves together the tales of Scholar, Rialli, Orryn, and Ryland, each navigating their own treacherous waters of destiny, deception, and desire.
Scholar, aboard the battered Merciful Serpent, grapples with the Deep Sorrow consuming his nation, while his heart yearns for a life beyond the unforgiving sea. Rialli, haunted by memories of her mother and the mysteries of the sky, faces enigmatic strangers and the art of trickery that pervades her world. 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.

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?

It's a tough job, but if Malia does it right, she can win back her life on land. However, vengeful souls lurk in the waters, determined to destroy the mortals above them.

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? Reputable for her appeal, servility, and obsession with cartoons, Alaina is a workaholic immigrant doctor who's sworn off love. 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? FULLY EDITED RECENTLY (2025)!
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!)

*UNDERGOING EDITING AND SMALL CHANGES RANKED #1 IN #DADSBESTFRIEND TROPE My gaze was fixed on Weston, wanting to look away so he didn't see me but unable to, and so when he whipped his head in my direction, he looked me square in the eyes. I was painfully aware of how I was sitting on Dego's lap, his arm around my waist, mine around his neck. I couldn't move, couldn't breathe, and he didn't either for several time stopping seconds. Then he slowly took a step in my direction, and kept walking until he was standing directly in front of Dego and I. •~•~•~•~•~•~••~~• Two years ago Avery Blackwood's father met and married a demure Sunday school teacher, who, within a matter of months, spent his entire savings and completely wiped out everything he'd done over the years, wrapping up the whole thing by having an affair. Her father divorced the woman, but it was too late to save the families finances, and before they could even begin to get back on their feet, Daniel Blackwood is deployed to the middle east, leaving Avery with her wealthy cousins to try and acclimate to an environment foreign to the one she was raised in. The pressure builds until Avery makes the choice to leave, her destination over halfway across the country; her brothers ranch in southeastern Colorado. The only obstacles-she has fifty dollars to her name and no car, and her controlling aunt standing in the way. Influenced by a childhood of war and action movies, Avery, armed with a bowie knife and determination, simply heads out the back door and doesn't look back. She isn't expecting her envisioned trek across America to end so soon; a chance meeting with a family friend and neighbor who feels responsible for his friends daughter causes her to alter her plans. Within the few days she is with Weston Travers, she falls for him, and falls hard, but falling in love with someone ten years her senior may not have the fairytale ending every girl dreams about.
