The Black Mirror, the prison dimension bearing every demonic monster of the spirit world has been shattered and its inhabitants unleashed upon the earth. Seas are boiling. Cities are burning. Some of humanity's greatest warriors have perished, their iron weapons useless against this new threat.  

Inarhi, heir to the throne of the Holy Ephesian Empire, seeks to end this plague. She risks her comfortable life as a minister to broker a pact with the last of an age-old race of powerful witches, the only ones who can send back the demons forever. But her decision is considered reprehensible by the Church, as well as to the people she's trying to save. 

While toiling through ancient rivalries, Inarhi will be tracked into the far reaches of the spirt realm, where from ages long past dwelt the high kingdoms of gods and beasts. And as time runs out, Inarhi must decide how far she's willing to damn her soul for the sake of a thankless empire.

Reflections Beyond (Book 1) now published so sample only by SandraCorton
14 parts Complete
Charlie was an average girl who hated being average. But that all changed the summer she turned 15. The holidays had rolled around and she was forced to visit her grandparents, which sounds innocent enough, until she disappeared. She returns two years later not knowing that time had lapsed in her absence, with no memories of what had happened, looking the same as the day she left. Things get mighty confused. There is talk of a world called Argonia that she has never heard of. An evil man seeking her out that stole her memories and still keeps them in a crystal goblet. Then a prophecy that revolves around saving the world. While everything seems to involve an elaborate mirror that leads to a mystery world. When a gorgeous guy named Caden appears on the scene, he only has eyes for her, and seems to hold the answer to her mysteries. Can he help her solve the riddle of her life before it's too late? And could she really be the saviour of a world she had never even heard of?
Promise of the World [Canaan, Book 1] by Chryiss_Rose
12 parts Complete
Essairyn had never felt truly alive on Earth. It felt like something was missing ever since she was born, but even after twenty years of mundane living, she could never pinpoint what this or the emptiness in her heart was. Suddenly, she awakens in a grandiose, primordial forest and encounters both demons and spirits in a parallel world called Sol'h'meyr. She befriends, in particular, a sassy fox-spirit named Akari who just reincarnated after three millennia. Essairyn is an abnormal human with elemental powers, and Akari is being chased by those of her dark past. Together, they set out on an adventure in a world of magic, danger, mystery, and intrigue. But this not a game. That simple adventure is actually the modest beginnings in a chain of disruptions that tear even the dimensional fabric of time and space. No one, not even Essairyn, was who she thought she was. And not even the gods can change the destiny of the universes... A single promise shook eternity's existence. - Fantasy || Adventure || Romance || Action || Mystery || Drama || Science Fiction - Expectations for this Story: Immersive adventuring experience inside an intricate, magical world. Vivid imagery and deep characterization. Quirky magic system with mysterious elements and history. An original spin on the classic portal fantasy/isekai/waking up in another world interweaved with a science fiction twist. Scattered allusions and easter eggs. Builds expectations of future events to then defy that prediction. Slow-burn romance and complex, realistic relationships. Seriousness with a dash of humor. [August 3, 2021 Update Notice: The new revised and final version before book 2 will be up on August 8th on Royal Road. See you there!]

Heroes of Dreamland, Book 6: Kirby and the Fountain's Fate (OLD) by ebearskittychan
33 parts Complete
Just when the heroes start to think that maybe the trouble's all over for now, they're reminded that not all is right in Dreamland or the Mirror World thanks to a couple of Dark beings who have had plenty of time to plot and plan and grow extra bitter against their Light reflections. Maybe getting things fixed and back to normal will be simple... but, then again, when is that ever the case here in the land of dreams? Hold on to your Dimensional Capes, Hats, Scarfs, etc., because this is the start of what may turn out to be either the heroes' greatest victory... or their worst defeat. Oh, and thanks to the Dimension Mirror, things may be growing extra complicated when a new-but-awfully-familiar character enters the scene. He's here, and he's determined to destroy all involved in this great battle, both the Light and the Dark. The peace of all worlds may be here, but now that the prophecies and the programming are gone from Nintendo World, who's to say how long it will last? (Book 6 in the Heroes of Dreamland saga) (rated PG for mild fantasy violence and some mildly scary elements) (I do not own any of Nintendo's locations, characters, etc. I claim no ownership of their property. I do own all my OC's, all plotlines and plot devices in these books that are of my own design, my original locations, etc. Please do not copy, paraphrase, or otherwise steal my work. Thanks.)

***This book has been stolen by a predatory site without my consent, including the cover I made, this blurb, and all chapter contents within. I will no longer be uploading chapters. I will not feed the site in question more of my content. However, if I delete this book, it won't be deleted there, so I would lose all evidence that this story is mine originally. I'm sorry, but I'm only one of thousands of victims of the blatant and egregious plagiarism and copyright infringement made by the repulsive website I found my content on.*** For millennia, a magical barrier around the Sand Sea prevented an endless force of darkness from drowning the world. As long as the barrier held, the world was allowed to forget about the shadowbeasts of legend. Until now. Gale, a young mage-in-training aching to prove herself, is sent on a simple job to handle the purported animal attacks the desert people seem unable to fend off any longer. Believing the tales of shadowbeasts to be superstitious fancy, she expects to encounter nothing more than mirages and whispers on the wind. What she finds is hatred given form and vengeance given flesh, waiting for the moment to strike. The barrier is weakened, wavering, and an ancient enemy is gathering its strength to break free of its eternal prison. Gale must find a way to restore the barrier, or else die in a war millennia in the making.
The Five Cursed Witches: Volume 4 - Mirai, the Witch of Sight by High_Priestess_Elena
100 parts Complete Mature
Mirai comes from a long line of witches who have been particularly gifted in using their inner sight. As such, she's trained her sight from a young age. She's always been a disappointment, however, as the only thing she's ever been able to see is the vague image of a girl. On her 18th birthday, Mirai discovers a mark on the back of her neck displaying the number thirty. From her first proper vision, she deduces that unless she finds the girl before the number reaches zero, both of them will die. Only being able to depend on her less than mediocre skills in seeing the future, Mirai sets out to find the girl before the time is up. Little does she know of the trauma the girl has suffered, nor that finding her is only the beginning. ---------- Mature rating due to: smut, violence, suicide (happens in the prologue while POV-character has her back turned), rape (happens in chapter 30 and will be mentions of it afterwards, fade to black, there will NOT be a trigger warning at the beginning of the specific chapter), violent death of babies, some rather bloody scenes, self-harm, extreme guilt. Note that a major part of this story focus on healing from and learning to live with trauma, so though you could potentially read it but skip some specific parts, if you're not comfortable reading something that deals with the listed topics, then this book won't be for you. ---------- This series will contain the following volumes: Volume 1 - Zoe, the witch of innocence (completed) Volume 2 - Crimson, the witch of night (completed) Volume 3 - Morana, the witch of life (completed) Volume 4 - Mirai, the witch of sight (completed) Volume 5 - Danae, the witch of light Volume 6 - Rheseis, the faerie of love
