In the heart of a Spanish city carved from stone, a suppressed rebellion is forming, threatening to show its colours. Long held from practicing their religion or culture, the Moriscos, Muslims forcefully converted to Catholicism, steep the pain and anger for their suffering, and it's not only their deceptively small community of Galera. Whispers of a second rebellion are turning in the air, and the King is preparing himself. Judur, a stonecarver apprentice, uncomfortable with the rising resentment, fears for her people the same bloody fate the first, unsuccessful, rebellion gave. When the rebellion rises, and her people systematically slaughtered, Judur sees it's much, much worse than she imagined.
Now on the run, Judur journeys across Spain, passing by Granada and slipping in and out of Cordoba. Unsure of where to go and with no family, Judur decides Al-Maghrib is her only haven. As she treks, the stonecarver's apprentice meets, befriends, and assists those ranging from beggary to royalty, and slowly weaves her way through the intricate maze of the Castilian Crown.
*Description is, as always subject to change. This is an extremely rough idea in my head (as excited as I am to venture into it) so it's going to be a slow process.*

Heaven Can't Wait ۞ Baldwin IV
Al-Andalus 1183. Lluna Valentia bint Al Mualim De Bosch is a Spanish/Moorish noble, fruit of an interfaith union that hoped to unite two conflicting faiths of the Iberian Peninsula. However, hope is a dream and the reality is that the family's influence, wealth, and titles are in danger with the constant friction between the Almohad Caliphate and the Christians wishing to retake their Iberian land. At nineteen, Valentia is the only remaining daughter to be wed and their only hope to salvage their social standing. At the other side of the Mediterranean, the terminally young King of Jerusalem fears for the future of his kingdom and his struggle to provide a successor that will lead in example. In a last act of hope, or desperation, word is sent out that the King looks for a betrothed. Many countries receive the news, but few people are eager to answer. Yet in Al Andalus, it means a seizable opportunity for a certain family. It is no doubt a convenient solution for both sides. But the convenience is flawed, complicated. Because of the King's illness, it remains to be seen whether there is a point to it all. And, after all, nobody asked what Lady Valentia thought about the whole situation. Can this unwilling bride give her life and love away to a leper? And what is that which makes her the only one who could? Something far more sinister than a disease lurks ahead. Factions and alliances will either cooperate or sow discord. With such chaos, even the most unlikely of alliances may not be out of reach for this Kingdom. //the mature tag does NOT indicate smǔt, it indicates violence, blood, and heavy topics (and perhaps mildly spicy scenes (but no smǔt)) More disclaimers and warnings inside King Baldwin IV x OC || This is a long-fic and slow-burn so that's why the pace is so "slow".

Faith, Influence, and Government (Season 2 of Previous Work)
This narrative is a sequel to the previous tale, now unfolding within an Islamic cultural context for my Muslim audience. It will weave elements of Judaism into the storyline and the personas that will feature in each chapter. The characters selected to headline each segment will bear names of Islamic and Jewish heritage, such as Mehmed, Selim, Fatima, Ahmed, Bayezid, Baybars, Yeshua, Joshua, Job, Ezekiel, Hezekiah, Emmanuel, Sarah, Samuel, Abraham, and Isaac. Each chapter will take place in the medieval era, featuring cities and countries from the "Fairy Tail" manga series, alongside real historical locations around the world. One chapter may unfold in Medieval Europe, while another could explore the decentralized medieval Middle East and the Levantine Coast. Note that each chapter will begin with a synopsis of the respective time period, so be sure to watch for it. However, it's important not to anticipate a uniform time setting for each chapter. Should inspiration strike, a chapter may unfold in a historical era distinct from its predecessor. For instance, one chapter might take place during the Romantic period of world history, which is the early 19th century, while another might be set in antiquity, long before the advent of railways, the telegraph, and contemporary infrastructure systems we typically take for granted. Inspiration is the key, and now that we've got the formalities out of the way, it's time to plunge into the creative abyss, right? Are you ready?Complete

Al'amin was treated badly but luckily with the light of Islam, some people converted to Muslims and surrounded him with aid. The deen of Allah spread slowly which made the king angry. They started mistreating the Muslims which led to conflicts and small-scale wars. In the process, Al'amin was killed.
