adventure darkness epic evil fantasy gateway guardian light love magic power writteninaction

Beware as you enter Threshim, a once bright land now darkened by hatred and hopelessness. It's people ruled by a family with roots steeped in darkness beyond their understanding. Long ago this tyranny would not have been tolerated as it would have drawn the attention of the Guardians, who fight against the darkness in all its forms - but even they are now silent.

In this land exist a Lady, a disconnected warrior and a mysterious girl with no memory of her past or who she is. With their own secrets, some of them are achingly aware of the truth that this world seems to be growing more desperate by the day. 

Now a new Lord is about to take the throne and his advent will trigger events effecting more than just this one realm.

The Blood Witch by RavenMoonspark

When you come from the bloodthirsty gods and goddesses, you become bloodthirsty yourself. When they force you to feel their power, or either make your life a hellish experience in order to get what they want from you, chances are, you'll do what they tell you to. Bloodthirsty gods. Painful games that force people to fight to the death in order to get a small chance of survival. Love that turns tragic. Mythical beings who are all very much real. And of course, lots and lots of chaos and magic. If this sounds interesting, check this story out. You will meet the Blood Witch, forced to kill for the bloodthirsty gods who have taken her captive. You'll meet the warlocks who are kind, not evil, and all want to protect their friends and family. You'll be faced with the gods of this world, who are all very twisted and demented, a bit more evil than you'd think originally.

The Dawn's Knights by dragonsshades

Synopsis: The Radiance Sovereign, or the Lord of All that is Light, was cursed into stasis during his last battle against the Queen of Night and her second, the Warden of the Dark. The only entity that could fix the Sovereign was his long-lost daughter, Dawn. If she was not found in time, the Sovereign's post was mandated to be transferred to the new Heir of Light. The new protector of the world from the dark forces lurking on the helms of our nearest parallel dimensions. His only hope remains with four misfit nobodies from different corners of the world. All newly gifted by the Light. Confused as they come, and hurt beyond repair. What happens when they are put together in an isolated mansion to train and find Dawn before time runs out for the Sovereign? What if they found their own ways to bond with Dawn, without even realizing who she is? What happens when they get attached to her? Will there be a fair fight? ***

How to court a storm | 18+ by venuslourde

ᴀɴ ɪꜱᴇᴋᴀɪ ꜰᴀɴᴛᴀꜱʏ ʀᴏᴍᴀɴᴄᴇ -: ̗̀➛ Awakening in a world beyond her own, she finds herself in a body she doesn't recognise - shattered, bruised, and bearing the name 𝒩𝒾𝓇𝓋𝒶𝓃𝒶 𝒱𝒶𝓁𝒹𝒾𝓈 𝒮𝒾𝓃𝒸𝓁𝒶𝒾𝓇. In this perilous new reality, survival becomes her only focus, as she grapples with the stark truth: her only power is what she can seize to protect herself. Powerless and alone, Nirvana's plans are born from sheer necessity rather than careful strategy. With nothing to her existence but a name and a broken body, she must forge her own path, uncovering the dark secrets of this world while clinging to the fragments of her former self. Trust is a luxury she cannot afford, and yet slowly but surely, there are those who would kill for her and those who might die because of her. But 𝒜𝓁𝒾𝓈𝓉𝒶𝓇 𝑀𝒶𝓍𝒾𝓂𝒾𝓁𝓁𝒾𝒶𝓃 𝒮𝒾𝓁𝓋𝑒𝓇𝓈𝓉𝑜𝓃𝑒 is neither ally nor enemy - he is an enigma she cannot ignore. Once a boy of striking beauty, his fleeting, tender glances hinted at a curiosity she barely acknowledged. A decade later, he has transformed into a man hardened by the ruthless pursuit of the crown, his once-soft gaze now a burning desire that defies reason. His obsession with Nirvana is both relentless and terrifying. His pursuit becomes an unyielding storm that threatens to engulf them both, leaving nothing but chaos and destruction in its wake. What should be his undoing instead drives him deeper into madness, convinced that she is his by some cosmic right. Nirvana knows she should resist, that allowing this dangerous dance to continue could spell ruin for them both. Yet, the dark allure of his obsession, the haunting sweetness of the chaos he brings, draws her in against her will.

Now, with its strength and forces having grown tenfold, the ancient foe moves to free the monstrous creatures from the World Below. With the future of the realm teetering precariously, Syrilth and her comrades must do everything they can to keep the creatures of the World Below locked away.

The Assembly of Thirteen: The First Two Companions by OmyVlz
