Four men. One scarred survivor. A prophecy that could reshape the realm.

Nit's body is marked with the scars of a brutal past, but her will remains unbroken. Sold and claimed by two orc mercenaries, Vorgak the disciplined strategist and Rakgu the sharp-tongued rogue, Nit is thrust into a perilous journey she never wanted. Bound to their protection, she fights to navigate the uneasy alliance while keeping her own plans for freedom alive.

But Nit's life is far from ordinary. Arion, the powerful and enigmatic elven prince, believes she is the key to an ancient prophecy, a destiny he cannot ignore no matter the cost. To him, Nit is not just a survivor but a potential savior, one he is determined to claim for his kingdom's salvation.

Lurking in the shadows is Thallan, a deadly dragon shifter assassin with a single purpose: to find Nit and eliminate her. As his hunt closes in, Nit's every move becomes a gamble between life and death.

With tensions rising, kingdoms on the brink of war, and desires pulling her in conflicting directions, Nit must confront the secrets buried in her scars and decide who to trust. Will she forge her own path in a world desperate to control her, or will the prophecy consume her entirely?

The Mark of Dusk is a slow-burn fantasy romance teeming with fierce battles, simmering chemistry, and a heroine who defies fate at every turn. Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Carissa Broadbent, this is a tale of survival, prophecy, and the dangerous power of love.

The Crownless Lands by SteScope
13 parts Ongoing
Welcome, traveler. Step into the Crownless Lands-a realm that should have been golden but never was. The maps still show grand borders; the songs still promise glory. But up close you'll find frayed banners, broken vows, and people trying to live between the teeth of history. Here, adventurers hunt fortunes that refuse to be found. Heroes rise late or fall early. Lives are traded, stolen, and sometimes-miraculously-saved. And the creatures? Some stalk the roads and terrorize the villages. Others arrive with a lesson sharp as a blade. And the kingdom's worst monsters wear crowns made of lies. --- What You're Getting Into: A weekly high/dark-fantasy pulp serial-fast, moody, full of intrigue, sorcery, and razor twists. Each episode lands a complete beat and ends on a cliffhanger. Where It All Unravels: A continent under a failing crown: forts crumble, roads go quiet, new rules harden. Towns and frontiers fend for themselves-more grit than resources. Bloodlines, Beasts & the In-Between: Shifts among humans, elves, dwarves, orcs, and classic creatures-some scourge, some uneasy allies. How the Story Moves: Chapters leap across the map, braiding many plots into one struggle. Local skirmishes mirror the bigger fight for a crown no one can hold. The People Worth Bleeding For: An ensemble of adventurers, exiles, heirs, and schemers. Not every arc finds light-some rise late, fall early, or trade all for one mercy. Your Weekly Drop: New chapters every Thursday, 6-10k words. Each deepens the world, sharpens the cast, and drives the saga-great for weeklies and first-timers. Important Note: The story follows multiple destinies; chapters are non-sequential and jump between plots across the Crownless Lands.
The Bloom of Ruin by purplekushbabe
41 parts Complete Mature
The gods are silent now - their echoes swallowed by the dying light of two kingdoms that once believed themselves eternal. Starlight flickers, shadows fracture, and the air itself trembles with the memory of what was lost. The peace that was promised is gone; the balance that was stolen demands its debt. Aurora Valenstar has become both salvation and curse - the last bloom of a kingdom built on stolen dawns. Her blood carries the seed of renewal, yet her heart bears the mark of ruin. Bound to the Shadow-Crowned King by fate and fire, she must choose whether to save the world that betrayed her or the monster who might still be its only hope. Love becomes a weapon. Mercy, a death sentence. And every truth she uncovers unravels the last threads of who she once was. In the depths of the Shadowlands, Killian Varyn faces the prophecy he's long denied: that to heal the dying realm, he must destroy the one soul tethered to his own. But even monsters can tremble when the light they feared begins to reach for them. When gods return to reclaim what was theirs, he will learn that the line between devotion and damnation is drawn in her blood. As Lumeris crumbles and the Veil cracks, blood will turn against blood, the skies will burn, and the last crown will fall not with a roar - but with a whisper. For in this final reckoning, life will only bloom through ruin, and the end will come not in shadow... but in light too bright to survive. Fate cannot be rewritten. It can only be fulfilled. And when the last petal falls, even the gods will kneel.
