In a land long scarred by war, a chance encounter between a young knightess and a village boy forges a bond that will quietly shape their fates. Years later, the boy becomes a smith of quiet renown, his hands crafting not just weapons, but tokens of loyalty, hope, and an affection he never found the courage to speak.
At the center of his life's work lies a single creation, a blade forged from a fallen star, said to carry the memory of light, love, and longing.
To this day, travelers whisper that deep within the firefly forests of Starglade, that very sword still rests, glowing softly in the dark, waiting for the one it was made for.

Gone Him Waiting Her
She was his first love. The girl who knew his laughter, his dreams, his fears. The one he swore he'd never let go of. Until one day, he did. Without warning. Without goodbye. He was her everything. Her first kiss. Her first heartbreak. The boy who carried her heart in his hands- and then shattered it when he disappeared. Years passed. Wounds turned into scars. She learned to live with the silence he left behind. He learned to live with the regret of leaving her. Now, fate has thrown Mason and Ella together again- in the most unexpected place, on the most ordinary day. But nothing about seeing each other feels ordinary. It feels like the past rushing back. It feels like the pieces of a love story trying to fit again. But can she trust him after the way he left? And can he prove that this time, he's here to stay? Because sometimes love doesn't end. Sometimes, it waits.

Where we fell
They met under a sky that wasn't ordinary-stars whispered, time slowed, and something ancient stirred in their souls. Their love wasn't just powerful-it was enchanted, stitched together by fate and sealed with a spell neither of them knew they cast. But not all magic is meant to last forever. When love begins to unravel, can the heart ever forget what it once held so sacred? A story of cosmic love, impossible choices, and the ache of letting go.Complete
The Silence That Found Me
The sky stopped moving the day she fell. Exiled and hunted, he roams the mist-covered wilds with nothing left but rage and a memory he cannot explain. She sleeps, silent as starlight. He waits, haunted by dreams that feel like someone else's life. Something ancient stirs between them. Something not meant to be remembered. Not all love is born under the moon. Some is carved from its absence.Complete
Words beneath Snow
In a world where duty carves silence into the soul and love waits across lifetimes, two men walk the path fate tried to sever. One carries the weight of forgotten wars. The other, the warmth of a fire never fully extinguished. When their lives cross once more, old vows stir beneath quiet glances and unspoken names. But in a land of spirits, swords, and secrets, even peace has a price - and some stories were never meant to stay buried. A tale of devotion, memory, and the soft, stubborn hope that survives the frost.Complete
The Forgotten nameless and the elf princess
Long ago, the Void claimed a soul of humankind, stripping away their name, their history, their face. All memory of them faded from the world, save for the chorus of whispers the Void left behind. Thus they became The Nameless Whispered One - forgotten, yet forever haunted. But though the Void unmade them, it also left them tools. The Nameless moved like a shadow across stone, their steps forgotten as soon as they were made. Doors barred to others opened at their touch, for no lock remembered to resist them. Their daggers struck unseen, their enemies already fallen before their names could be spoken. Where others saw a curse, the Nameless carried silence as a blade. Yet even shadows need an anchor. In the halls of the evergreen court lived a princess, ageless as the trees from which her crown was carved. Her memory was unbroken, her gaze unshaken. Where all others forgot the Nameless moments after meeting them, the princess remembered. Always. She walked beside them when no one else could. She stayed their hand when the whispers urged blood. She gave them a place in her story, when they had none of their own. The people feared her choice. They whispered that she risked her throne and her immortal line by binding herself to a soul touched by the Void. But still she kept the Nameless at her side - the forgotten blade and the eternal princess. Together they became a legend: one lost, one unyielding. The Nameless slipped through shadows, unseen and unremembered, while the princess stood radiant, the only one who could call them back from the abyss. And so the tale is told: when a shadow passes silently through the forest and no one recalls its shape, it is the Nameless at work. And when you see a lone princess walking the moonlit woods, know she is not alone - for her memory is the one chain the Void itself could not break.
