The Children Of The Forest was a local legend, where if you even tried to hunt game in the forest, the children came out to play. With your life.
The town of Ashbourne was in a tragedy. It was in a drought. No one could grow crops, no water, and it was dusty. Everyday someone died of either dehydration, dust inhalation, or hunger.
It was terrible.
But a group of brave men have stepped up, and have gathered materials to go into the Ashwood Forest, where the Children come out to play a game.
And if you lose...the Children take you forever.

Wrong Feelings - A dragon's journey
Atrix wakes up in the depths of a frozen cave, his body no longer his own. Scales, wings, claws-he's become a dragon, a creature of myth and legend. But his memories are gone. Who was he before this? Why is he a beast? And why does the void he escaped from haunt him like a shadow? As Atrix navigates the treacherous labyrinth of the Blizzardelle Mountains, he discovers that the cave is more than a prison-it's a gateway to ancient secrets, fulfilled prophecies that hint at a past life he can't remember. From monstrous snow-dune worms to sentient crystals whispering cryptic warnings, every step brings him closer to the truth... and closer to danger. Meanwhile, in the sunlit village of Amberhaven, Colleen, a sharp-witted healer with a knack for trouble, finds herself drawn to the mountains by a strange illness and the haunting whistle of the wind. She thinks the cure for the disease are hinted at in old legends. But Colleen isn't one to believe in legends either, and she has to decide which way to take it. As their paths collide, Atrix and Colleen must unravel the mysteries of the Blizzardelle Mountains and their dark history. But the deeper they dig, the more they realize that some truths are better left buried. And some feelings- like the growing bond between a dragon and a half-human- are too dangerous to ignore.
Vengeance
"The human girl with the golden eyes who slaughtered a hundred wilds at the border." He paused. "You're infamous in these woods-a nightmare none of us wish to endure. Except, of course, for the fools you killed so effortlessly just now." -- No matter how peaceful and secure the district of Palvade becomes, there will always be those who would rather wreak havoc and cause chaos for the most absurd reasons. In a world where humans and werewolves are finally able to live together and in peace, there were those who could not abide by the final laws that were put together by the Council and formed their own secret organizations. One of these organizations is the Human Ascendency Research Center, also known as HARC, to which Ava was sold to as a child. She was trained and genetically engineered into becoming the strongest creature to ever exist, created to obliterate the Council itself. Ava managed to escape before the plan was incorporated into her brain with one goal in mind: to hunt down and destroy everyone who has ever harmed her and her family. Along the way, she encounters unexpected truths and emotions that challenge her.

Fallen Gods
Gods, supreme beings of immense power, often thought to be all knowing and all powerful. But little do people know, they are often just shadows of what they were portrayed to be. And yes, they do lose their way, quite often, in fact. Caught in a tricky situation between two gods who had been holding a grudge against each other for centuries, Steve has to dive into legends, history and lies in order to find the truth. In a world that the very concepts of right and wrong, good and evil were incredibly blurred, this ordinary Minecrafter faces unknown forces that were at work, and for him, the stakes were higher than he had known in his entire life. The ancient rulers of the world was stirring, and Steve would be caught in between them if they decided to show up. Let's say, he wouldn't fancy meeting them. "Come on now, those so called gods are just superpowered beings. They have fallen, they lose their way, make mistakes, and they aren't necessarily all knowing. So to say, true gods don't even exist in this world." This is a standalone Minecraft short story, with zero connection with the others. I don't own Minecraft and those Minecraftian characters.Complete
