There are rumors of a girl that lives in the woods. A girl born with twisted magic, and was rejected because of it. Of course, no one knows the true story. But because of the stories, not a single person travels near the woods.
Quintin Luke Regazzini doesn't believe in such rumors. He spends his days with his family in a small cottage on a hill, far off from the main buildings of Lighthill. He has other things to concern himself about; such as Lucia Vermont and his sister's worsening condition.
But his normal day life is thrown when his little sister disappears. Soon legends will begin to reveal themselves.

Cryptic Asunder [Ver. 3 outdated]
This is considered the 3rd version of the story, I am editing the 4th version for publication. The official book is planned to come out somewhere around 2026-2027 but I still have to finish the manuscript. I posted this story on RoyalRoad and Fiction press, I haven't looked at either site in years. A life full of joy and tragedy, Vila's story begins with the very person she despises. Thankfully, a man by the name of Sommi rescues her from the clutches of her master. Years go by with her bubble of ignorance to what goes on anywhere else and she lives happily on the outskirts of Kai village. This all changes when she comes home from the market one day to find her little hut ransacked and her hero, Sommi, gone. A man named Vensen haunts her every thought as she travels the country of Aishy and the void itself in search of her father figure. Many strange and horrifying events take place as Vila also encounters revelations of who she is and the family she comes from. None of it makes sense, and yet there is a hidden string of order in it all. -------------------------------------------- Written by Robin Dobi, all rights reserved as of 2010 (c) (first draft) 3rd revision.

(Kind of on hiatus.... Updates will be random) This story is pure chaos. You have been warned. I had always thought the world was too dull. I dreamed of a fantasy world filled with magic. I was an orphan and had no attachments to the real world. I should have specified my wishes more. Being the next target of truck-sama wasn't exactly on my bingo card. When I opened my eyes I was in a new body in a new world. And there was magic. It was a dream come true despite my painful arrival. But there was something suspicious about the all too bright world. And what was with the ridiculously good looking people? I was inside a novel I knew that much. But what novel I didn't know. --------- There might be a lot of typos. It's a reincarnation story inspired by the many reincarnation manhwas I've read so far but with my own twist. English is not my first language. I might not be the best at wording things.

Flickering Creatures | ONC 2024 Longlist | ✔︎
When Bryony -- herbalist extraordinaire -- goes missing, Bella knows one suspect stands above the rest. The village's aspiring second witch, Daphne, comes from a family that's tried to take Bryony down before, and Daphne seems determined to carry on that legacy. For someone who's always been terrified of Bryony, she's a little too keen on looking into the disappearance. There's just one problem. Bella's insufferable fellow familiar thinks the kid is innocent... and he's been right about worse things before. If Daphne herself is to be believed, clues on the disappearance lead a whole lot closer to home than Bella would like. As the evidence mounts, Bella must choose to either stand by her values and the woman who raised her, or seek what might be a truth she would rather not uncover. Prompt #81: The town's witch has gone missing and no one is looking for her but her two familiars - a crow and a black cat, plus the teen who has always been scared of her. ❖❖❖ Written for Wattpad's 2024 Open Novella Contest.
