They say there are many victims.
They say I destroyed lives.
But that wasn't me.
That was the monster in my head-
the one who knows exactly what people want,
and exactly how to take it away.
I just listened.

Iron & Ice #ONC2024
"I will become as monstrous as I must." Five hundred years after the Great Freeze, the empire of Britannia stands, untouchable, as the greatest power in the world. The Britannia that emerged from the Freeze is an empire built of iron and ice, of blood and ash and bone. Its rulers govern a strictly-organized society, with each class serving a purpose and kept strictly separated. Daphne Corvus has been raised from a frozen hell to the heights of wealth and power for one purpose alone: to become that which she hates the most in order to bring a cruel empire to its knees. If she succeeds, she will see the sister she's lost again; if she fails, she will die, and her sister will be left to suffer In order to succeed, she must first infiltrate the school where Britannia turns the children of its most powerful families into its greatest commanders. But the Academy is notoriously competitive, and Daphne is far from the only student who needs to triumph. *This story is my entry for the 2024 Open Novella Contest*Complete![Memento Mori [ONC 2026]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/407482307-256-k839113.jpg)
Memento Mori [ONC 2026]
Sage Volkov has been alive for thousands of years. Everyone they've loved has died- at their own hands, for any living human they touch crumbles into dust. They're unable to get close to anyone and they've lost their will to live. Death--or Lola, as she prefers to be called--has observed Sage from afar for millennia, and has grown quite attached to them. She resolves to do anything she can to make Sage happy and keep them at her side, even as Fate tries to keep them apart. Lola and Sage strike a deal: if she can't change Sage's mind by the end of the year, then she'll finally end their life. [OPEN NOVELLA CONTEST SUBMISSION-BASED OFF PROMPT #114]Complete
Slice of (magic) Life
Axle has known magic his whole life. Not the kind of magic from stage acts and swindlers on the streets, the kind that was used in secret, under the cover of lies and facades. Magic that, when found out by regular non-magic civilians, will be mercilessly sought out and destroyed if they weren't able to use it for themselves. This was his father's warning. But even when kept a secret, danger lurks ever so closely and Axle had to find a way to stop it all on his own... Or did he? Elaine knew she wasn't the only one. She had this feeling that there were others in her high school that did what she could do: real magic. Just when she was mustering up the courage to ask someone else that she thought was like her, danger strikes her school. A danger that she felt was related to her magic. She knew she had to do something about it. Should she deal with the threat alone like she usually faced everything else in her life? Or will she finally confront her suspicions about a certain boy from her school that she was sure had magic like her? ------------------------------------------------------- Huuuge thank you to the user @rainhither for creating this beautiful cover. You're the best!! This is an original story by me. The characters from this work are part of a different, but same universe, original novel I am currently writing. However, the main story of this universe will not be published here (at least that's my decision for now.) since I plan to publish/self-publish that work. Thanks for reading all the way to the end and I hope you like it!Complete

He whispers the last part like it's a secret. "Take my advice, stay away from her." Then he's gone, disappearing back into his crowd.
