In a fictional world of Russia and magic, a young woman is captured by an immortal god.
Marya is the last koldunya, a powerful sorceress lineage that was decimated by the hatred in her land towards magic. With most of her family killed in the mage purges, she is raised by her uncle, Aloysius, away from civilisation. Aloysius is cruel and bitter, and wishes one day for Marya to deal justice to those that took away their heritage. Over the years, Marya's only friend is beautiful Vasilisa, whom she created by transforming one of the swans at the lake by her home.
One summer, a prince comes riding through the woods. Siegfried is the son of Marya's enemy king, the man who ordered her, and her family, killed. When the trio strike up an unlikely friendship, their worlds begin to crumble. When Siegfried tries to find out the truth about Marya and Vasilisa, he unleashes an immortal god named Koschei, who has been imprisoned for over ten years.
Koschei wants revenge on the child that humiliated him by defeating him in battle. Except, the child is no longer a child: her name is Marya Morevna, and they have more in common than he ever expected.
The Spark That Ignites the Dawn is a fantasy tale using elements of Russian folklore and a retelling of Swan Lake.

The Swan and The Pirate
I'm sorry, I need this for my S.G.E desired reality- Basically this is a story with Hort x Female Ever. She's the daughter or Odette and Derek from the Swan Princess. She falls in love with Hort, very slay. If you like Hort, read it! I'm in the middle of reading the first book at the moment, so I might go back and edit this story as I read the book. I have seen the movie multiple times though, so there might be a little mix with information from the books and the movie. This si going to be very messy, but I'll try to structure it. Also, I removed Agatha and Sophie. I'm very sorry, I truly do love them, but I want to be the main charcater and Hort loves Sophie, so that wouldn't work. (I think I'm going to make another one with Hort x Female Never, because being a Never is insanely cooler than being an Ever, I'm sorry, but this comes from an Ever. It just looks much more fun.)Complete![Swan Song ❂ Killian Jones [1]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/189998243-256-k195237.jpg)
Swan Song ❂ Killian Jones [1]
A swan is viewed as many things: beautiful, pure, graceful... But in Odette's eyes, a swan is something much different. A swan is a curse, one she herself must suffer through each day. And while the stories say every curse can be broken, Odette finds it hard to believe she has a chance to do so. And even as she tries to find one, to find a way to break the curse placed on her, there are many things standing in her way. A vast world of obstacles, but perhaps the most dangerous of all a Dark Curse. One intended to transport her and everyone else to a world without magic. However, perhaps the Dark Curse is exactly what Odette needs for all the things to fall into place, for her own curse to finally be lifted and her happily ever after to become more than just a dream. ---------- [Killian Jones / OC] [Once Upon a Time - Seasons 2 & 3] [First book in the Swan Lake Tales series] [Started: 11/09/21 - Finished: 04/09/23] ----- Spanish translation written by: @Elenazazueta18Complete
