"There are lots of incredibly powerful people in Folia. Not all of them are heroes, but that doesn't automatically make the others villains."

~~~~~~

Folia: The only remaining nation on the planet. Surrounded by protective walls, a utopia-like government and most importantly, the Guardians -- people with extraordinary gifts and abilities who dedicate their life to Folia and her citizens.

But all good things come to an end, and Folia's prosperity crumbles as terrorist attacks from a group of rebels start destroying their home.

With no choice and stakes growing higher, the Agencies that run Folia form their first group of Guardians. They call this team Aegis -- the best of the best who will protect Folia from threats too large for normal Guardians to handle. The only problem is that they need members.

Miara, a young superhuman who dreams of becoming a Guardian, is presented with a great opportunity that will change her life forever.

Join her on an adventure unlike any other in the creation of Folia's first superhero group.

Contains a bit of everything you love! Adventure, drama, action, mystery and suspense.

This is the first draft, so any help is appreciated.

[Content Warning: Dark themes, violence, psychological manipulation] ❝Being kind in a cruel world is like bringing a flower to a knife fight.❞ Eren Valen died on Earth believing in the good in people. Too bad his second chance at life didn't come with a warning label. Reborn into Ezura, a realm where magic flows like water and power corrupts like poison, Eren's pure heart makes him the perfect target. As an apprentice mage with stars in his eyes and trust in his soul, he dreams of becoming the hero in a world that has no use for them. But Ezura doesn't reward the pure-it devours them. When his faith in humanity is shattered by a betrayal that leaves him bleeding out in a ditch, something inside him breaks. Or maybe, something awakens. Gone is the boy who wanted to save everyone. In his place rises someone who understands the truth: if the world wants a villain, he'll give them a masterpiece. Armed with magic, fueled by spite, and backed by a brilliant mind he'd forgotten he had, Eren begins his metamorphosis. Those who took advantage of his kindness? They're about to learn why you shouldn't leave your victims breathing. But every time he stares into the abyss of his own making, echoes of his former self whisper from the depths. And in quiet moments, when the mask slips, one question burns: Is he becoming stronger, or is he just better at breaking? ✧ A tale of twisted redemption ✧ Morally grey protagonist ✧ Psychological warfare ✧ Complex magic system ✧ Strategic manipulation ✧ Found family (but toxic) [Updates every Monday, Wednesday and Friday] #MagicFantasy #DarkFantasy #Reincarnation #Revenge #MagicAcademy #PsychologicalThriller #Antihero Start the journey.

The aliens came here for one thing, and one thing only.... Females. ( This story is only available through inkitt or galatea!!!) (some read events may apply) (check update chapter for more details!) Humans believed they were the only intelligent life to exist... that it was impossible for another species to evolve in a way where they could prevail in something as great as space travel. humans believed they were supposed to be the most technologically advanced species and the alpha predators... They were wrong. The Xandisians evolved in ways humans never could have imagined, they are natural-born killers with phenomenal strength and agility. Their kind never went through the same devolution as humans, they never lost their natural instincts to hunt, kill, or breed. With their limitless potential and monstrous strength, they faced few threats and could survive almost any threat that befall their species, almost. After an incurable sickness washes over the planet of xanadis, the majority of the female, young and elderly, and vulnerable population is all but wiped out, leaving a small portion of the male population to face the threat of extinction. With no choice but to look to the stars for a means to save their kind from complete annihilation, the xandisians set out to find a race compatible with their own. after many years and countless failed expeditions, they finally find a species that matches their base DNA on a planet called Earth. The only issue now is how humans will react. (Book 2 LTF series) (CAN be read as a stand alone, but not recommended for nostalgia reasons~) (ps this is UNEDITED, grammar and spelling mistakes will ensue!) (NOTE: THIS IS ITS OWN STORY NOT A CONTINUATION. SAME CHARACTERS BUT DIFFERENT PLOT.)(Last to fall au/spin-off)
The Light of Miera: A Guard's Request (Book 1) by WriterMashashy
19 parts Complete Mature
(Epic Fantasy/LGBT Romance) COMPLETED & PUBLISHING A Guard's Request will be published with Fantastic Books Publishing in October of 2023, but I have decided to leave this early draft up for anyone who can't wait until then. With the creation of the Valnyr Galaxy, the Guardians vowed never to interfere with the affairs of the mortal realm. However, when sinister forces seek to steal the power of the Manastream, Alamantra's Guardian finds that some oaths are easier to keep than others. Life is about to change for the citizens of Freya as a blight sweeps across the land, corrupting the mana held within their bodies. Princess Arafrey finds herself stripped of all she holds dear, alone on the frontlines. However, there is hope as guards Reyla and Tharin take on a quest from the Gods to cure the sickness, leaving Freya to traverse the Ten Kingdoms in search of The Hand of Miera. But will they be able to find it in time? Meanwhile, in the East, The Duran Empire marshals their forces as the Emperor seeks to invade the starved desserts of Sudra. But the Sudra hold a terrible secret and Queen Nymati will not go down without a fight. * * * Imagine if Tim Burton and Joss Whedon got together to make a story to rival Full Metal Alchemist or Fairy Tail: that's my writing style. I hit some pretty deep topics but I try keep it light and entertaining. Trigger Warnings/Mature Content: I will post trigger warnings at the beginning of scenes to warn people, but let's make a list here just to be sure. Sex, survivors guilt, suicide, rape, murder, gay/lesbian sex, masturbation, assault, torture, addiction... There maybe more I missed, let me know if you feel I should add anything else.

❖ Interstellar pilot and ex-adventurer Alex Gallegos must keep their team safe on an icy moon as sentient storms threaten to repeat the tragedy that ended their last career. ❖ Everyone in the United Inhabited Solar Systems (for some reason, UIS for short) knows to stay away from Mahaha. The icy moon is notorious for failed probe landings and research missions that end in tragedy: the only people to ever venture to its surface needed rescuing after just two weeks. When a prestigious research group decides they want a turn, they ask Alex Gallegos to lead the team. Perfectly qualified and haunted by their past, Alex accepts, hoping to make up for old mistakes and get just a little further from the earth they've left behind. Two months into the seven-month mission, the team is struggling with discontent, damaged equipment, and blizzards acting less and less like normal weather. As Mahaha moves out of range of help and the storms take on a more malicious character, Alex must face the one foe they could never have prepared for. Mahaha may or may not be alive. ❖❖❖ Complete. Wattys 2021 Shortlister. Standalone sequel (Rocks Can Dance) coming in 2023. Comments and critiques are both welcome and appreciated. I write characters from many different backgrounds, with many different experiences. If you share those traits and find that I have misrepresented anything, please let me know! I am feedback-friendly and here to learn :)

21 parts Complete Mature

*Completed* Heroes Percy Jackson and John Smith are finally united by one person: Number Two. She may have died years ago, but she's back, and she's not stopping. Even though she still doesn't have legacies, she's powerful. Now named Max, this Garde will stop at nothing to get revenge on the Mogadorian who killed her years ago and the one who 'tricked' her into thinking he was helping her. This book is also a 'what if' book. What if things didn't happen the way they did in the actual books, what if everything changed, because of this one girl? What if the Garde didn't unite yet? What if John didn't meet Sarah? In this action-packed, thrilling book, one unknown Garde will bring two different groups together; demigods and Garde- and even though they're different, both have the same goal: to save their world, with Max in the middle. *Spoilers!* *None of these characters belong to me!*
