A collection of shorts from a D&D group I recently became a part of. I play as Aelthas, so many of the stories will be from his point of view.
Every story is intended to explain something for other members of the group, whether it's how my sword got its name, or why Relgrim is gone and Respen dead.
Suren--How Aelthas received his sword, Suren.
The Undead Suren, Vampire Priestess of Melvaunt--Some backstory on Suren.
Tymora's Rainbow--How Aelthas acquired his six-sided die (trinket).
At The Brewtal Cask--How our story began.
The Road to Phandalin--Aelthas and Respen on the road.
Two Men and a Dwarf Walk Into a Tavern--The entrance of Relgrim.
The Death of Respen--The exit of Relgrim from the group, and the death of Respen.
Priva and the Phoenix--Why Aelthas abandoned his drunken grieving process.

Untold
'They pulled the chair across from me out and sat in it. The tavern carried on when the figure made themselves comfortable. My grip tightened on the hilt of the dagger. They pulled the hood of their cloak off and unclasped it. Their movements were relaxed and unhurried. I ran my eyes over him. He had strange black, swirling tattoos on his neck and long, pointed ears. His clothes were plain. I crossed my arms and sat back in my seat, keeping my eyes on his piercing midnight blue ones. He cocked an eyebrow. "Well?" I narrowed my eyes. "Well, what?" "What's your business here?" "I should be asking you that, considering you silenced a room by being in it." "Fair enough." He paused as the bartender brought another tankard over. "I'm looking for a travel companion." His voice was as deep as the shadows surrounding us. "You're an elf... Don't they prefer to travel on their own?" "Fae," he corrected as he pulled a pipe out of thin air. A black wisp of smoke surrounded his hand as he did so. "But yes, we do. I, however, have had enough of my thoughts being my only company." I nodded. "So?" He raised his eyebrows. I shook my head sadly. "This is something I need to do. Alone." "Alright." He looked a bit disappointed, which was odd, considering we had just met. ' What happens when you're going to kill the Unnamed One and meet a mysterious fae on your journey? Do you trust him, or leave him? And what do you do when you find out what he's been hiding? Iowyn Aedithas is on a quest to save her guild. A quest that could potentially be lethal for her. She's an awfully brave (some would say naive) human to be doing this. Demons have been attacking her guild, and she's had enough. She meets Evaris, the mysterious fae, on her journey and he becomes her travel companion. When they reach their destination, he reveals information that's previously been held close.Completa
The Shadow Within
"His stare promised death. It was a promise that he'd made many years ago, and now he was back to follow through with it at last." Willa and her friends are enjoying their night partying to celebrate her twenty-first birthday, when their lives are abruptly upended and thrown into disarray as they're cast from the human world they know so well. They find themselves in Faerie, a land fraught with perils and magic and a myriad of unworldly creatures, both good and bad. Willa is confronted by her past and who she once was when she comes face to face with an old foe she thought she would never see again, and her friends must quickly adjust to this strange, new land and survive the hardships and trials that are thrown their way. Together they must travel through the fae kingdoms, each more treacherous than the last, and restore balance to the world Willa had once called home. But there are forces of malevolence at work, the kind of evil that thrives off misery and only exists to bring chaos to Faerie and all it's inhabitants, and they will do everything in their power to stop Willa and her friends from fulfilling their destinies.

✧The Earthe of the Elves✧
"Upstairs!" I hear a yell and pounding footsteps. I crawl out of the window until I'm hanging from my hands. I take a breath. I let go. ~ Living in a small town with a single mother, Mia Glenn never expected anything special to come of her life. She never thought she would go on an adventure as harrowing as the stories she read. Until one day she narrowly avoids being kidnapped, discovering in the same day a whole new universe that she is supposedly a part of. As she navigates the elven world of Earthe with the help of a particularly attractive elf boy, she learns secrets about her identity and her father's, of whom she believed had ditched her and her mom at an early age. Soon Mia discovers that peace isn't as easy as it seems, and while Earthe may be beautiful, there are dark parts that are creeping back to the light. Even in a world of perfect beings such as elves, lies can be spun as precisely as an arrow can pierce a target, and evil can sneak up on you when you least expect it. Mia is used to reading about this kind of stuff, not living it. Safe to say she finds herself in one hell of an adventure. - - TW: if you need a tw for fighting, violence, weapons, blood, death, etc. I would read with caution (I don't get into any gory details, but there are scenes w/ this) I will put tw's for the more violent scenes.Completa
Burn the World for You
Rhaella is human. Azriel is Fae. The bond doesn't care. For three years, a mortal girl survived slavery by staying invisible and hiding the one secret that could kill her. She has magic. Azriel spent lifetimes waiting for his mate. And when he finds Rhaella, human, starved, tortured, barely breathing, the bond snaps anyway, devastating and absolute. And he makes a choice that changes everything. He burns her world down, slaughters everyone who hurt her, and refuses to let her go. Now a mortal girl must navigate freedom that feels like a new cage, a bond she never asked for, and an immortal male whose devotion terrifies her as much as it heals her. While Azriel learns that saving someone and healing them are two different things, and that sometimes love means giving back the choice he took away. In the dungeons of men, she learned what mercy costs. In the ruins of his faith, he learned what devotion demands. Some wounds don't heal with magic. Some require time, patience, and a mortal heart teaching an immortal warrior how to live, not just survive. He would burn the world for her. She will teach him how to live in what remains. ⚠️ TRIGGER WARNINGS 🕊️ This story contains graphic and emotionally intense themes, including: Slavery and systemic dehumanization Detailed depictions of torture and physical suffering The death of a child (traumatic and central to the plot) Severe medical trauma and body horror PTSD and realistic trauma responses Violence, including extreme and on-page violence References to sexual violence (none between main characters) Suicidal ideation and survivor's guilt This is a dark, mature story that explores trauma, survival, and recovery.
