In the quiet, worn halls of the Pembridge Estate for Lost Children, young Miadi, a reclusive wildorn, finds herself among a group of orphans, each with their own pasts and dreams. There's Magnus, a towering half-giant with a gentle heart, and Ignatia, a blazekin struggling to control her fiery powers. Together, they learn that life here depends on both friendship and caution. Under the watchful but caring eye of Miss Guinevere, they tackle daily routines and strict rules, each clinging to the hope of finding a real home someday.
Yet as strange happenings and whispers begin to unsettle the children, they can't help but wonder if something more is at play beneath the surface of the orphanage. And when their time to leave arrives, what waits for them? Peace, adventure-or something unexpected?
Changing Tides is a story of friendship and courage, set against a quiet mystery, exploring the strength it takes to face the unknown-and the bonds that can make even the loneliest places feel like home.

A thousand years ago, before the realms as we know them existed, there was only one land-Ardelia. A world where magic flowed freely, and its inhabitants lived together in an uneasy harmony. The dragon shifters ruled the skies, admired for their strength and wisdom. But envy brewed among other shifters, and rivalries soon escalated into a full-scale war. Born into an era of peace, Skye never felt at home. Raised in an orphanage among emotionless scientists, her wild temper and violet eyes set her apart. People avoided her, whispering about her strange appearance, while she was constantly told to suppress her true nature. No matter how hard she tried to blend in, Skye always felt like an outsider-and she hated it. Join Skye as she navigates a world that demands conformity, grapples with her own powers, and uncovers secrets that could change everything she thought she knew about herself.

Requiem Of The Blades Season 2
A gate opened. A promise broken. A flame that will not die. Beneath the shattered sky and the bones of forgotten gods, Arin and Lira descend into a world older than war-where the sun has never touched, and the rules of life no longer hold. The enemy has a face now. A name still hidden, but a voice that echoes in their blood. The deeper they go, the louder the silence grows. Whispers speak of trials beneath stone, of ancient creatures bound by oaths, of the truth behind the fifty-two. And of Arin-what he was never meant to become. This is no longer a journey. This is a reckoning. The fire is awake. And it remembers everything.Complete
