"She will save them all, or she will let the darkness claim their souls,"
Long before the existence of the Shadow Soldiers, there was a man, whose only crime was his curiosity. He had no thirst for power, merely a need for new knowledge. But after the creation of the first abomination, his world was plunged into darkness and the First War began.
The wars raged on for decades, and sons and daughters were raised to take their parents places on the battlefield.
Until the first glimmer of hope was born. A girl who had spent her life abandoned and shunned, who was born with the ability to control the air with nothing but her fingers, was discovered in the ruins of Al Tamar. A girl who had the power to defeat the King of Shadows.
"but she will be our salvation, and blaze a burning trail that they will follow, into death or to life."

All Things Must End
A year after Alina Starkov tears down the Shadow Fold, she is finally able to settle into her peaceful life. There is no more war with Ravka. The Darkling, once her enemy, is now a loyal, protective husband, and a father to their adoptive daughter, Amelia. But all things must end. The Sun Summoner learns that a time of peace can become a time of chaos and upheaval in the blink of an eye. As quickly as one war ends, another can emerge. Alina must protect her country as Queen while making sure that the Darkling doesn't revert to his old villainous self, or else all they have built will come crashing down. This is a sequel to The True Saint, but can be read separately. The world is based off of the Shadow & Bone Netflix series/ books by Leigh Bardugo. Book cover art by: misticarts on tumblr ________ |PREVIEW| ------------- The Darkling raises his hand in a motion I know all too well. Behind him, a monster ten feet tall, made of shadow, forms in a menacing stance, ready to carry out his silent orders. I thought I had seen the last of his nichevo'ya a long time ago when we were on opposing sides of the war. I shake my head. "No. No, what are you doing? Wait!" I send the Cut barrelling at the monster. It dissociates into nothing only for another one to take its place. Again, I send the Cut through the abomination, but it was only a diversion. Another one forms behind me, capturing my arms to prevent me from summoning. It holds me above the ground. I kick and scream, but it covers my mouth with its long, slender arm, the other holding me securely to its chest. My breath is labored as I use all of my strength to fight it. It is futile. The Darkling approaches me, stroking his fingers across my cheek as a way to comfort me. It is hard, however, to comfort someone if you are the cause of the distress. "I will do anything in my power to protect you, my Dear Alina. Anything."Complete

Every coin has two sides. The same can be said for people. Her name is Wysteria Kirigan. A rare type of Grisha. A shadow summoner. After escaping her father's imprisonment and arriving in Ketterdam she went through an entire year of highs and lows with a certain group of crows. But one of them captured her attention more than the others. A man named Kaz Brekker. Now the Bastard of the Barrel is asking her to come with them on a job to a place she once vowed never to return. [Kaz Brekker x fem!OC] WARNING : This story involves some strong language, reference to sexual themes, and reference to physical and verbal abuse. NOTE : Hi everyone! Welcome to the second part of this series. This part follows the plot line of the first season of Shadow and Bone on Netflix. I would recommend going to read the first part to get some sense of the relationships between this OC and the other characters but I tried my best not to make it a necessity. As always, I can only take credit for the OC's in this fanfic. All other rights go to Netflix and the incredible Leigh Bardugo. I hope you all enjoy and will stick around to see what Winnie will get up to in season 2 ...Complete
