Thorns Chapter Storyline
Arc I - Noctane - Inheritance of Ash
A boy inherits the thorn-light, burdened by the ashes of forgotten wars. Bloodlines weigh heavy, and power whispers of both salvation and ruin.
Arc II - Ardent Hollow - Hollow's Maw
Beneath the earth lies a labyrinth of flesh and stone, where the land remembers every wound. To descend is to walk through living history.
Arc III - Kawaminari - Shogun's Fall, Revival, and Legacy
A storm-forged land where thunder shapes both people and history. Its ruler fears the land will again fall into the chaos of past. Shadows stir, councils whisper, and the storm itself waits for its judgment.
Arc IV - Tolaax - Heat of the Unfaithful
In the burning desert, oaths turn to lies and the faithful falter. Betrayal simmers beneath the sands, and even the gods look away.
Arc V - Tsu Wan - Fallen by the Chaos
A land drowning in fractures of mind and soul. To face its horrors is to battle not only enemies, but twisted pieces of the self.
Arc VI - Yumwo Empire - The Moon has Risen
The moon's silver light blesses and curses alike. A goddess stirs, offering mercy that revives the lost - or unmakes the living.
Arc VII - Kankha - The King of the Sands
In endless sands, a king rules on a throne of bones. The desert crowns only those who can pay its price in blood.
Arc VIII - Cloud Sea - Mother's Love
Across boundless waters, a mother's grief shapes storms. Her love shelters and destroys, and the sea drowns all who do not listen.
Arc IX - Northern Fjord - Everfrost, Evermore
Winter without end buries both life and memory. Time itself freezes, and eternity wears a mask of beauty and despair.
End of the First Series - T.H.

Avarice Blacksteel Book 2
Most of us long to "Be" but when the path gets too costly, or steep, we take solace in what we "Have." Remove the trappings of what we own and then what is the sum of us? They were the survivors, abandoned by the allies who swore to protect, in the ultimate gesture of greed and betrayal. Their world plunged into annihilation and chaos. With the passage of years in this blighted landscape order was established anew. Those who had been anonymous before the war found their will to rule, those who had experienced the comforts and ease of western life, thrust into darkness and despair. This brutal conflict had awoken those long sleeping, those who had ceased to care, those of immense power, the ones entrusted with the safe keeping of the often volatile mankind. Although their parallel world too was at risk, lethargy and arrogance ruled them. Against the backdrop of this savage landscape the saga of three such tribes of survivors unfold, and the unwitting chosen among them. One tribe sought to prosper via savagery, one by organized military might, and the other who ruled with no more than fairness and love. Three tribes thrown together, competing for the limited resources to survive, in a world teetering on the brink of total decimation. Driven by human avarice.Complete
Ashes of the Vow
An assassin with secrets. A man with scars. Love was never supposed to be part of the deal. "We can't," he said, his voice rough but final. The rejection was a physical blow. Humiliation, hot and sharp, washed over me, followed immediately by a fury so intense it blurred my vision. I released his jacket like it was on fire, snatching my hand back from his chest. Of course. Of course. I shoved open the van door, the metal screeching in protest. I practically fell out into the garage, needing to put distance between us, needing to breathe air he hadn't just stolen from my lungs. "Thorn-" he began, his voice following me out. I spun around, cutting him off. The words came out laced with a venom I didn't entirely feel, a weapon to match the hurt. "Don't. Just... don't." I was furious. Furious at him for starting it. Furious at him for stopping. But most of all, I was furious at myself. Furious for wanting it. For leaning in. For letting him make me feel, for one stupid second, like I was cared for. When Thorn-an elite assassin with too many secrets-collapses on the doorstep of Ash Penbrook, she expects death, not rescue. Ash is a powerful businessman with his own scars and a vendetta against the same organization Thorn once served. Forced into an uneasy alliance, their world becomes a battlefield of ambushes, betrayals, and buried truths. Survival draws them closer, but trust is dangerous-and love even more so. As enemies close in, both must decide: are they each other's salvation...or the final weapon that will destroy them?

NEEDLEMOUSE: unforgiven
She cried where no one dared to hear, A whisper drowned in blood and fear. One final breath, a silenced scream, Now she haunts the edge of every dream. They took her voice, they broke her name, Left her bones, but not her flame. The earth refused to hold her soul, For justice never made her whole. She walks beneath the moonlight of her new cursed world, A question carved in every sigh. Not revenge, but truth she seeks In shattered nights and haunted weeks. She cannot sleep, she will not fade, not ever. No grave will keep what's left behind A woman wronged, unrested mind. With frost in breath and eyes of flame, She hunted those who fed the blame. Each heartbeat marked, each shadow known Their guilt engraved in flesh and bone. She found them hiding in their lies, Tore truth from lips and sight from eyes. No mercy lived within her shade, No sin too small to make them pay. Even those with hands kept clean Felt the chill of things unseen. For silence, too, can bear the knife, And feed the spirit that steals a life. A reign of terror, cold and wide, The veil between the worlds untied. She ruled the dusk, the dark, the dread A queen of pain, a crown of red. But storms, no matter how they roar, Will break upon a stronger shore. One day a light will pierce her gloom, A soul not swayed by wrath or tomb. He'll walk where others failed and dared not tread, To calm the spirit, to raise the dead.Complete

VICIOUS TREACHERY
Book one from TALES OF SINS series ___________________________________ AARAV I watched as she drove away from the cathedral but unlike her words there was no sign of charity or donations around. What else would a person go to the church for? To repent for their sins? To pray for good health and life? Or to express their gratitude? I have visited many holy places in my life but none of those visits were for those reasons. Every time I stepped in front of God, I always had the feeling of frustration crawl into my mind and body. I always had many unanswered questions but no one around me could answer them. Each one of them is biassed, unaware of the truth, how would they answer my questions? How will they justify my rage? So, I decided to find the answers myself. It was all good until I ended up into a deal, the kind that would cost me my sanity. At first i thought i could survive her presence but soon i realised i would only survive in her presence. ___________________________________ MIRA I was all set to live my life freely until the word 'marriage' interrupted my dreams. All my life I had lived for others and finally I had gotten the chance to explore the world. A chance that was again snatched from me. My father was anything but a loving father who would care for his children, he never asked me what I wanted, always commanding and ordering around and I hated my mother who had taught me to shut my mouth when he spoke. Maybe because I was a girl, he never cared for me like he cared for Kartik, my sibling. I was a child who wanted to be loved, seen and a child whom the parents would take pride in yet it didn't matter whatever I did, I was always unnoticed by my parents. Everyone would tell me that I was good at anything I did but I wanted my father to say that he was proud of me and that day, it never came. Now I have mastered the art of going unnoticed but then he came into my life and revived the dying hope in my heart.
