The Circles of Magic 🌳 (The Curse of Magic Book 1) by dragonthusiast

As a Cursed elf, one born with no magic, Edwyr has been forced to live among humans for over ten years. He doesn't mind his job of defending the town that he now lives in from beast attacks, and he gets along with most of the humans well enough, but he can never quite make the bitterness and resentment over being exiled go away. Life goes on as usual until a talented but inexperienced elf named Feyrith arrives and tells Edwyr that the High Elven Council wants him to help Feyrith on a quest. Despite his hatred towards the Council, Edwyr ends up agreeing, if only because he doubts Feyrith can survive a trip like this alone. The task is to investigate strange magical energies in a ruin a few days' travel away. Edwyr assumes that the only thing to worry about will be avoiding getting killed by the jungle wildlife, but the mission turns much more complicated when they stumble across a conspiracy that aims to change everything about the elven society. Including both of their destinies. --------------------------- [word count: ≈ 90 000 words] • Book 1 - The Circles of Magic • Book 2 - The Nature of Magic • Book 3 - The Valor of Magic

Trinket and Whisper by Heuristic_Hashmath

There's a reason they call Qardis the City of Whispering Walls. Dreams are a myth... An impossibility... A disease detested across the lands of Thelessia... But when the claims of dreams surge across Qardis, defying popular beliefs, silent unrest has terrorized over Qardis. Dreamers are arrested, torn apart from families, wrested away from their homes to an unknown fate, never to return again, spreading fear across the populace over a phenomenon that is not even in their control. How long until the Monocle can answer the people, and how long until the plague of dreams takes over the entire land and the Monocle is left with no one to rule? No one knows why. No one knows how. No one wants to know. But beneath the shadows and marble-floored austerity, conspiracies brew, plots are written, resistance is growing, questions are burning, and the safest and most protected empire of Thelessia is once again on the verge of its own collapse, and this time, the whole world outside its walls is watching. --- For fans of Arcane: League of Legends, Game of Thrones and Avatar the Last Airbender!

What sacrifices will Lenora, Caliban, and their companions have to make to rid their realm of darkness? Their quest is fraught with peril, and the stakes have never been higher as they strive to bring light to the shadows that loom over their future. ----------------------- "You have no idea how much I crave you," Caliban's bright icy blue eyes bore into my bright yellow ones. "W-what do you mean?" I stutter. Caliban moves closer, and I instinctively take a step back. My back bumps against a tree, his hands caging me in as he looms over me like a predator. He bends down until his mouth is hovering over my ear. "What I mean, princess, is that my fangs ache for your throat. My skin begs to be against yours. For my lips to take away every last breath. I crave you so much it's intoxicating," he breathes out, his chest rising and falling rapidly. He moves his head to look into my eyes. I hesitate for a moment, but then that hesitation quickly fades as I speak. "Then do it." He searches my face for any sign of doubt, and when he finds none, he opens his mouth. "Turn around."
