Masquerade by emmaklively

The kingdom of Verlockend has a secret. Within its emerald green hills and spanning lakes lies a deadly curse. Behind its citizens' extravagant masks exists a condition beyond compare: hideous boils that cover every face. For as long as Fawn has known, this is the way life has been under the rule of King Malin; everyone within its walls is mandated to wear a mask at all times, so as not to reveal the cause of Verlockend's mysterious solitude to its enemies. The curse that covered the miles of fruitful land long ago is not only hard to look at, but deadly as citizens continue to age. The elderly members of the community are starting to disappear more and more often, sent far away from civilization due to the violent characteristics of the curse. Their heartbroken families never see them again. Despite the horrors of this, Fawn lives a comfortable life as a baker's daughter. Having lived this sad tale all her life, she has grown used to spending her days hidden behind cloth. But even within the mundane kitchen life, a secret as big as her kingdom's always looms in the back of her mind: she is not cursed. She was born an anomaly, the one Verlockan citizen without those grotesque features the curse brings; her skin is smooth and white as milk, keeping her immune from the curse's claws. When the home she thought she knew is suddenly turned upside down, Fawn realizes that she cannot live surrounded by secrets any longer. Her chance comes upon meeting a cunning stranger named Jacinth, whose bold spirit leads them both into an unexplored land to discover the truth behind all the lies. Along with wise Kendry, confident Wrendolyn, and some companions along the way, Fawn finds herself as she discovers the story behind her kingdom's fate - and if there is a way to break the curse once and for all.

Threads of the Midnight Forge by Fuerton

In the shattered world of Cynosura, where the threads of reality unravel and twist into chaos, the remnants of civilization cling to fragile zones of stability. The legendary Midnight Forge-once a beacon of unity and balance-has been destroyed, its collapse birthing a fractured land teeming with dangerous anomalies, broken alliances, and whispers of rebellion. Caelum Veyra, a haunted wanderer with no memory of his role in the Forge's fall, struggles to piece together fragments of his past while navigating a world that teeters on the edge of collapse. Drawn to his name is a destiny he neither understands nor desires, and the ghostly threads of a forgotten connection to the enigmatic Lyric Corren pull him toward an uncertain fate. As he journeys through Cynosura's volatile landscapes, Caelum discovers he is not only pursued by the shadow of his past but by powerful factions vying to control the fractured Tension. Among these forces is Sable Velar, the magnetic leader of the Threadbound Choir, whose vision of restoring the Forge threatens to erase the beauty of chaos and individuality. Her unrelenting mission brings her into conflict with Auren Thalor, a disciplined monk who believes balance lies in coexistence, not control. Caught in the crossfire, Caelum must decide whether to embrace the truth of his connection to the Forge or let the world's fragile threads unravel entirely. With its intricate tapestry of magic, philosophy, and human frailty, Threads of the Midnight Forge weaves a tale of redemption, identity, and the high cost of power. As alliances form and fracture, and the Tension continues to break, the choices of a few will shape the destiny of all. Will the shattered threads of Cynosura find harmony, or will the weave of reality come undone forever?

Losing Game by cha1nz

(TWs: gore, abuse, sexual abuse, cursing) Why does he still breathe? Why is he kept alive in this shadowed purgatory where time has no meaning, and screams are swallowed by the walls? His cell is a cage, his life a cruel experiment, and his mind a battlefield. Questions claw at him relentlessly: Who is he? What is he? Why does this torment exist? The walls bleed stories of others-lost souls whose cries still linger, haunting the air. His own voice has grown hoarse from endless screams, his body a canvas of scars, a map of suffering that tells no answers, only pain. Every day is a ritual of degradation, where faceless captors toy with his humanity, stripping him of it piece by agonizing piece. The only constant is the endless cycle of questions. Why him? Why the torture? What is their purpose? He clings to the faintest memories of a time before-fleeting images of warmth, love, a face he cannot quite recall. But even those are slipping away, devoured by the void growing inside him. In this relentless, suffocating darkness, where hope is a distant memory, only one question remains: When will the game end, and what will be left of him when it does?
