The Kingdom's glory days are long gone. It once rang with laughter and happiness giving testament to its greatness. Mankind was at peace with its powerful allies, and the promotion of knowledge was held above all else, giving rise to incredible prosperity. All things were right and calm in the kingdom.
Seemingly overnight, flames and screams rang through the kingdom, scarring its beauty indefinitely. Weeks, then months passed until now there is only silence and servitude. The oppressive ruler ever watching from her castle of fire and death.
The masses have risen before in attempts to free themselves, only to be cut down quickly and shown the futility of their hopes.
There are powerful forces and beings, lying in wait, hidden from the world. The time will come when they will be joined and given the opportunity to bring about peace.
Will these heroes rise to the challenge?
Or will they fall with the rest?

Still editing this bad boy. As soon as I finish editing up to the current chapter, I will continue on with more chapters. Thank you guys for your patience.
Also if you have any artwork that you believe would look good on the cover of the book I would love to see it.

Saga of Fallen Kings, Book I: The Revenant Prince
The Philosopher King once conquered the known world, his power seemingly unlimited and his armies inexhaustible. Since that time his might has slowly unravelled, and his once steadfast empire has begun to crack, splinter and devour itself. In the isolated Southern Realms, where even magic has abandoned them, none of that matters. For years it has been filled with warring kingdoms, where as many kings die to the blade as to old age, and constant battles tear apart the land. When one such kingdom invades its old enemy, the King and his heir, Prince Caden, are killed. Unable to accept the loss of his family Prince Arian is broken, and when the Philosopher King stretches out his hand in aid, Arian takes it without a second thought. When Caden wakes from death, he's different. His eyes and soul have changed, and he finds a world filled with friends who no longer trust he's even human. Suddenly thrust onto the throne and indebted to the Philosopher King, Caden has no choice but to keep going - he must finish what his father started, and try to survive the machinations of the figure who now owns his fealty. Meanwhile something beyond death stirs for him, desiring nothing more than to drag him back into its embrace. Author's Note: A King of his Own started as a completely random writing session. There was no purpose or direction, but as I kept typing an entire world began to form in my mind that I knew I had to write about. My plan is to turn this story into a veritable medieval fantasy epic that spans an entire world, follows multiple character and storylines, and takes place over many years. The story has quite a grounded, almost 'realistic' start, but many more fantastical elements will be introduced, expanded upon and become central to the narrative. I have ideas for this story that make me genuinely excited and I hope you enjoy my work as much as I enjoy writing it, and join me on what will hopefully become a truly massive fantasy epic.Completa
THE WITCH'S HEIR (The Witch's Crown #1)
Twenty years after Queen Natalya Kastillion reclaimed her throne and restored the old religion, the realm has flourished. Magic is no longer hunted but revered. Ancient beings walk the earth again. Elves, druids, and sacred creatures live openly within the kingdom she rebuilt through war and sacrifice. But peace is never permanent. Kaelen, son of the High Priestess and the realm's heir, carries the weight of a kingdom shaped by legends. He is trained in magic, politics, and battle, yet remains unproven. When a forgotten evil rises from the ashes, Kaelen must step into a world shaped by his mother's legacy...and protect it from crumbling beneath the weight of its own rebirth. Beside him stands Natalya, older, wiser, and still every inch a warrior-queen. But not even she foresaw that her greatest battle might be fought through her son. In a world of dragons, cursed immortals, and the return of beings thought long extinct, the crown must pass, but the war for the soul of magic has only just begun. I owe my amazing cover to my friend @jinergy
Bonds in all Forms
Living in a world filled with Dragons were miracles beyond belief. Fighting along side them was an honor. Forming bonds that were made possible through comradery and trust. The world was at peace and flourishing with life after centuries of war with one another. However, the evil that made it all possible has never been forgotten. What once was sealed will be unleashed, as the Demon Realm will try to take over once more... ...Along with the King that was born from that war. ______________________________________________ NOTE: This is a school project of mine that is done within two months.

The Rite of Wings
Every three years, the rebel districts are summoned to Pyraem. Candidates are chosen to fight, bleed, and prove themselves worthy of a dragon's bond. Victory means survival. Failure means death. For Lilyth Ravaryn, survival is more than honor. It's the only way to save her sick brother. When the impossible happens and an ancient dragon chooses her, she is taken to Ignathar, the legendary Rider Academy carved into the mountain spires of Pyraem. Ignathar is no sanctuary. It is crucible. A place where descendants of rebels are broken, loyalty is demanded, and dragons are wielded as weapons for the crown. Enemies stalk every shadow. Allies vanish without a trace. And one ruthless squad leader, a man bound to shadows and sworn to the crown, watches Lilyth's every move. In Ignathar, nothing is what it seems. And as Lilyth claws her way through fire, lies, and betrayal, she begins to wonder: in a kingdom built on obedience, is survival worth more than truth?
Damsel Knight
Sometimes the best knight is a damsel. In a world where women are seen as weak, defenceless creatures for men to protect and own, one orphan girl wants to be different. She dreams of being a knight. Slaying dragons, taking down armies with her father's sword. Only her foster parents don't agree with her views. On the night of her betrothal to a man over twice her age, the King's soldiers come to their tiny village, and in the chaotic aftermath she's left with a choice. Go back to life she knows and marry a man she despises. Or journey onward and risk death to earn the knighthood she dreams of. The road forward isn't a safe one for a girl travelling with only her foster brother as company. Magic lurks in dark places. Vengeance burrows deep in many equally dark hearts. And all around the circle armies are gathering to defend the Kingdom against a threat not seen for a thousand years. This is the first part of the 140 thousand word fantasy adventure.Completa
Taniel (The Taverner's Daughter I)
THE TAVERNER'S DAUGHTER - BOOK ONE FANTASY, MAGIC, DRAGONS, ROMANCE, WINGED WIZARDS. Please Note: The rest of this series will not be published until the complete series is drafted and revised - probably another four volumes over the next year. However, this book doesn't end on some really bad cliffhanger, and I think it has a satisfactory 'end' feel, so do read it if you wish. After mistaking a leather-clad wizard for a dragonrider, the taverner's daughter agrees to binding vows: Jarryd hopes for a magic-saving paternity spell but Taniel just wants his dragon. Of course, it is not that simple. It never is. Others have plans for Taniel and can do without Jarryd's interference. Taniel's father is little help, too busy dealing with a guilty conscious and pining for his missing wife. Add talking dragons, kidnappings, a gallivanting Grandmaster Wizard, a wicked stepfather, seductive shape shifting winged wizards, and midwitchery. Stir with rumour of plotting land-locked pirates, spies, feisty forest sprites, rockgoblins, and a failing magical barrier. Welcome to the world of A Corrangorachian Fantasy. SOME MILD MATURE MOMENTS (but maybe not enough to mark MATURE): A few not-particularly-graphic sex scenes. Violence? Could get nasty, depending on your perception. Drug Use? Pipe smoking, copious alcohol, and the odd potion. And some coarse language, of course.

Soar
Please note: this is a third-draft story but is not revised. More than a century ago, dragons and the blue-eyed Shaderi flew together. Then they were brought down by jealous men who feared their power. Now blue eyes are a curse and dragons are a laughingstock, neither seen outside of slavery. Born a slave, her fair features mark her as a witch who is worth less than even the right to a name. He is a dragon who was raised in the arena, a life that left him unable either to fly or to breathe fire. Thrown together by an ambitious showman, they are united by a bond as old as the legends. Together, they have a hope for something more than the lives to which they were born, if only they can learn to trust each other. The words of a mysterious minstrel point them west, where rumors say their people live in freedom. The road there is hard, and at the end of it they find themselves a world embroiled in a secret war. This new world is ruled by a king who values tradition above all else. At every turn their new friendship is tested, and they are forced to decide how much they are willing to pay for a place to call home. He wants to help her learn the truth of where she came from, and she wants to give him what every dragon deserves: a chance to soar.Completa
