"The King needs an heir."
Sweet needs bitter, as the shadows murmur, and the current condition of the Realm drip with those words.
A well-governed and honorable kingdom on the surface. A great-minded king sits upon the throne, the wars well fought and won and lost, centuries past. The common folk linger and survive quietly, and knights stand their duty. Eternal fires burn with a strange warmth as merchants sell and steal, as horses whine and wolves howl. Swords clash in grudging silence, singers tell stories of love and death, and the world seemed to settle into an unwavering rhythm. It may not be perfect... but in days like these, peace was a luxury scarcely found.
But if one would dare sink their blade a bit deeper into the skin, they may draw blood dark as death.
A man, dead by a strange poison. Three sons turning from a duty they were born to uphold. A betrothal made from cunning and selfishness. A friend who held a blade at his neck. A young girl who trusted false. A strange mind and a strange name. A letter burning in a fire as anger threatens to boil over. A law that broke the rules. A world slowly tearing to pieces.
But it was only a moment in the legends to come.
(Author's Note:
This story is based off of George R. R. Martin's series, A Song of Ice and Fire, which is to this day a tale I look up to and take reference from. Because of this, there may be some parts of the plot and character development in this story, A Moment in Legends, that seem identical to Martin's. I apologize for this, but I will try my hardest to keep this story original! Thank you for taking the time to read this, and please feel free to comment and suggest how I could make this story more enjoyable for all readers!

Curse of the Stars Book 1
"You will seek death but you will not find it. You will long to lose consciousness but ever present you shall stay. Finally alone you will shrivel up and die without your own kind in all your magnificent splendor, and only after everyone you love is dead. By then, it will no longer matter, for when you finally have your light you will depart from it faster than fire from a raging wind. But perhaps you would have comfort yet little one. Death is a sweet thing in a world like this." Cursed by a Wishing Dragon when she was only a dragonet, Stygian sets off in search of a cure, leaving behind everyone she knows and loves. On her journey for help she meets more enemies than friends, with a little red fox as her only companion. At last she finds Turbulence; God of Confusion; the only one who can save her, or so he or she claims. *** Fyran, the Librarian's Apprentice is on the hunt for Leviathan; a legendary beast long foretold by prophecy, a prophecy she had disregarded as an old fable. Yet, ever since her father stumbled into their broken down house one dark night covered in blood and deliriously talking about a dragon with iron teeth, Fyran is no longer so sure. After her father dies and renders them all penniless, Fyran goes in search of this creature to take revenge-and the huge bounty on its head issued by the King of Sufta. Perhaps she will be successful and they'll no longer have to grovel as the poorest of the poor, and at the very least she'll acquire justice for the murder of her father, the only father she's ever had. But there is an old and forgotten prophecy as old as time fast approaching on the horizon. Nobody can stop it, fate is a force that can't be reckoned with, and everything that ever has and will ever happen to every citizen has already been foretold in their scrolls. The fate of Sufta is uncertain, and powerful forces are at play, but who has enough discernment to understand a long forgotten prophecy that's been dismissed by generations?Concluida

The Rogue King {18+} (Book 2)
[COMPLETED] I was cursed at such a young age, abandoned by my own wolf and the Moon Goddess for something that wasn't in my control. I don't even think having a mate is in the cards for me... ✨🌘✨ I jumped when the final horn sounded, circling the garden before everyone became silent. They all returned to their seats, my father rising from his chair as I stood from my seat along with the other pups. I struggled to breath as we took our position, standing in the centre away from everyone else. My father offered me a reassuring glance though it did nothing to ease my anxiety, all I had to do now was wait. My eyes widened when the moons blue light shined down on me, illuminating my skin as I stared up at the sky in awe. "We thank the moon goddess for the power of her light..." I dropped my gaze back down, my fathers words surrounding us, "...Shall it bathe you and grant you strength, agility, speed like the wolf..." The pups around me began to moan in pain, capturing my attention as I furrowed my brows. Their features were all contorted by an invisible pain that inflicted them but I felt absolutely nothing. My heart raced when their groans of pain became screams but I- I suddenly drop to the ground, a painful throbbing in my head forcing me to the ground. I grip the sides of my head, screaming. I don't know how to explain it but it felt as though my brain was tearing in two, like my head was cracking open. When the pain stopped, I found myself surrounded by wolves, the shifted pups. Looking down at myself, I only see my body, no paws and no fur. I hadn't shifted... ✨🌕✨ Book 2* 'The Wolven King' is the first book and must be read in order to understand this one. ⚠️ WARNING!! This book is mature and should only be read if you are 18+. There are depictions of violence, mature language, sexual behaviour and sexual abuse.Concluida
