The lifeless animated Construct known only as Marlina, awakened in a world at odds from deep lingering scars of conquest and malice, seeks a home where she can belong.
In hopes of finding a place to call home, she also wishes to seek answers for the origin of her creation and if she is the only one of her kind.
With only knowing her name and that her purpose of being is to serve another, she searches far and wide, learning more about the world with some help of a group of outcasts from an exhiled veteran, to a fugitive of a powerful family, to a leader desperate to seek salvation for their dying race.
One of Marlina's newfound friends has been taken, and it seems she is the only one up for the task to prevent their suffering to a terrible fate. A daunting task indeed, and requiring mettle as steadfast as steel.
Will she succeed? There is only one way to know.
This is only the beginning of the trouble that lies ahead.

❖ ''ZF 16 Ariomma to unknown vessel. Please identify yourself. Over.'' ❖ Farah and Kazem are twins working aboard the Ariomma, a trading airship that sails the edges of a flat world. Out here is a frontier far from civilization: a place known as the Tideless, where water lifts from the surface of the sea, and great creatures rise with it. Only some of them are known. This is not a sailing path known for its safety, but the crew of the Ariomma have rarely feared their work. That is, until they find the carcass of another ship hanging in the Tideless, decimated by an unknown enemy. Soon, their flight to safety becomes a fight for their lives, as the monster turns its attention on the Ariomma... and them. ❖❖❖ Written for #NONC2022, a community-run novella festival operating in parallel with Wattpad's 2022 Open Novella Contest.

BondForged
What defines strength-power, loyalty, or the will to carry on? A group of college students are pulled from their everyday lives and dropped into a world both wondrous and cruel-a realm where beast-like spirits known as "Bonds" choose their Masters, and where the power of one's heart shapes the very essence they wield: Essentia. What begins as awe and adventure quickly turns into survival. War looms. Darkness festers beneath the surface. And not everyone makes it. As Ren and his friends form connections with their Bonds and each other, they learn that power comes at a cost. Grief, betrayal, and buried memories follow them through battles and revelations. With each encounter, the line between home and destiny blurs. Can they fight their way back to the world they left behind-or will this world break them before they ever get the chance? In a tale where loyalty is tested, friendships are forged in flame, and wounds run deeper than swords, the question isn't just how to survive... But whether they can endure long enough to matter.
