Daveth was a simple farmer, working for his lord, Jalde Frode, and raised two productive people of the community, Aldred and Kjell who together help their village and the Jalde's lands survive. The summer has been poor - they have tirelessly worked on their own fields before the first of the winter storms arrive

There are stories often told, one of them between Merrit, the hunter, and Berach, the adder that you can see in the sky. But this story is true - Berach's Jewel is real. 

Daveth will do anything to save himself even if it does incur the wrath of it's owner.

Smother The Fire by karla00rosa
6 parts Ongoing Mature
They see me as a burden. A spoiled, selfish girl unworthy of love or trust. I knew the day would come when my family would finally decide to get rid of me for good, but I never expected them to marry me of to a king who sees me as nothing more then a tool. Cassius is cold and angry, burdened by the weight of his people's suffering. But in rare moments, I catch glimpses of the man behind the mask - a man whose duty has forced him to close his heart to the beauty of the world around him. His advisor Maxwell is quick to cut me down if I falter. Behind his sharp gaze and scarred body is a warm heart, that shows me compassion in my darkest moments. And Theo, who seems just as tortured as the flames he wields, seems determined to remind me of every flaw I carry, but his pain mirrors mine and all I can see is a friend who I need to save from himself. I've tried to make myself irreplaceable in their hearts, but no matter what I do, it's never enough. The magic they have traded me for, the magic that runs in my families blood, the magic that they think will safe their people, is not the one I command. They think I'm weak. They think I'm worthless. But I've endured too much to give up on my second chance. Even if my secrets threaten to destroy everything I am hoping for, I'll find a way to rise. For myself. For this kingdom. For a chance at something real. ----- Mature themes (18+) Mmmf Multiple POV (only prologue in 3rd person) Updates every Friday 45 chapters already planned This book is rather detailed for Wattpad and the pacing is medium :)

Once we were one. One kingdom. One king. One powerful nation. But two greedy warriors destroyed that. They shattered our empire in two. Breaking apart people. Turning a peaceful age into one of war and death. My kin went into hiding while the world was in turmoil. Peace may have come but it is shaky, resting on a blade of a sword. The true heir is out there. He will venture past our borders to be aided by a wanted, a rebel, and a mistake. They will help unite the realms into one once again. Then the heir will sit on the throne to unite us again. At least that's the legend. What we are told to believe. What 'must' be true. The only reason the elders are still living,to see an age of unity once again. But you'll see. Maybe they didn't hold on for so long for nothing. Maybe. Maybe we will live to see unity.
