"Strange how the purest of lights can provoke the grimmest of beasts."
Millennia ago, legends arose, illuminating the stars' ascent to The Land Beyond Cloud. Some claim that the pale lights, which adorn the night sky like diamonds would a work of fine silk, dwell as what remains of forsaken heroes cast away by the cowardly folk of Thaer. In more recent times, it would seem that the stars have multiplied. Yet, the newly arrived gleam with a cold light - a distant and lonely ambiance. As a result, rumors have spread that the Queen banished all Thaeren rebels to linger evermore alongside the forsaken heroes. Cursing them to live out their sentence, suspended in time. Nevertheless, the ancient magic which binds them dwindled over the ages, and the time shall soon come when the barrier fractures... and the stars descend.

Elyra: Legend Reborn
There is a force older than time itself, flowing unseen through the land, the skies, and the souls of those who walk this world. Some call it magic. Others, destiny. But in Elyra, power is not merely taken-it is earned, stolen, fought for, and sometimes... cursed upon the unworthy. The continent stretches endlessly, its lands carved by ancient wars and civilizations lost to history. Ruined cities stand as silent witnesses to battles long forgotten, their stone walls whispering secrets only the daring seek to uncover. Deep within the mountains, martial artists forge their bodies into weapons beyond human comprehension, their strikes capable of shattering steel. In the grand halls of scholars, mages bend the laws of reality, weaving spells that twist the very fabric of existence. Some claim magic is boundless, limitless in potential... but those who reach too far often find themselves consumed by forces they cannot control. But for every force that builds, another seeks to destroy. Beneath the surface, fire rages in an endless inferno, a realm where even the bravest fear to tread. High above, unseen hands pull at the strings of fate, shifting the balance of the world with every whisper. And hidden within sealed chambers, beings older than the stars slumber, their names long erased from mortal tongues. Legends speak of a kingdom that once ruled everything, a kingdom that no longer exists. Some say it was consumed by its own greed, others whisper of a power too great for the world to bear. Yet remnants remain-artifacts, symbols, fractured pieces of a puzzle scattered across the land, waiting for those foolish or ambitious enough to seek them. The air is shifting. The world stirs. Something is waking up. And when it does, Elyra will never be the same.
Starry Eyed Fighters book 1
Belle grew up with a relatively normal life in Ireland, raised by her grandparents who nurtured her into young adulthood. However, after learning the truth about her real parents following her college graduation, her world shifted. The mystery of her parents' sudden disappearance began to weigh heavily on her, filling her with unanswered questions. Determined to uncover the truth about this crucial part of her life, Belle decided to stop living in the dark. As a brilliant professor at Silver Lining University, she leveraged every advantage at her disposal-tapping into the institution's vast network of resources, connections, and research tools. After years of investigation, she finally stumbled upon a lead: an abandoned, once-hidden village buried in rumors. The village was said to have once been home to Vampires, human-like aliens, and other rare magical creatures, but the most troubling rumor tied the place to a series of strange disappearances over the years-disappearances that Belle realized were connected to her parents. Armed with this knowledge and driven by her unrelenting determination, Belle embarks on a journey to the village, hoping to uncover the answers she had been longing for a couple years.

Little fallen stars (The adventure in an apocalyptic world)
The world descended into chaos, in what people defined as the apocalypse. Like all their favorite characters in the books, two little boys set out on an adventure. They encountered villains, floods, earthquakes, strange animals, and mischievous plants-was the world really this difficult to navigate? What about their home? Will they reach it at the end of their adventure? ... While the world was unwelcoming, filled with the darkest lows in human history, a safe haven was built to welcome the abandoned twins. This haven held their favorite sweets, soft blankets, and heroes that descended from their cartoon books-the heroes who would later kneel before them, declaring their unyielding love. This is a story with characters who were originally from far away, from other stars. They fell to Earth and took form and life in it. The development holds more than life in an apocalyptic world and teaches about destiny, in which their "heroes" will await. ---
Chronicles of Alora: Stargazer
Beneath a sky stitched with constellations and secrets, three girls were born on the same winter night-a princess cloaked in shadow, a conqueror wrapped in flame, and a light-bearer destined to scatter the darkness. Each carries a thread of an ancient prophecy, their fates bound to the future of the kingdom and the balance of a world teetering on the edge of ruin. Eve knows nothing of this prophecy. Growing up in the quiet mountain village of Starling Hollow, her life has been shaped by whispered tales of the Fae, restless dreams, and a gnawing sense of not quite belonging. But when glowing lights begin to call her into the ancient Aurorian Forest, Eve discovers the truth: she is not who she thinks she is. Stolen as a child and stripped of her memories, Eve is Alora-the light-bearer of prophecy. And the Fae, long thought to be extinct, are waiting for her return. Guided by visions and whispers of the past, Eve must navigate a fractured kingdom, unravel the mystery of her stolen identity, and reclaim the power hidden within. But not all lights shine for good, and not all who seek her mean her well. The path to the Vale of the Fairies is treacherous, and the choices she makes will determine not only her fate, but the fate of the entire kingdom. In a world where stars hold secrets, forests whisper names, and magic is both a gift and a curse, Eve must decide: will she follow the light, or be consumed by the shadows?
Heim- A Prequel to "The Lazarus Saga"
More than a thousand years ago, humanity evolved into a space fairing species. A feat only possible after uniting under a single banner, the United Human Federation, or U.H.F. It wasn't long after that humanity looked to the stars from several habitable planets in which they now called home. This is a tale involving one such planet by the name of Heim. A planet our kind had either forgotten, or never encountered before. A planet ripe with magic. Though the sin of greed, that ran as deep as our days huddled in the caves of early Earth, would follow us indefinitely through the stars. A sin that would hide planet Heim from the rest of the galaxy and cost the humans that called it home an ignorance to their past. Lazarus, a young orphan raised in a southern town of Heim, wanted what all young children of Heim did. To advance on their path as a practicer of magic, and one day claim a palace of his own. Though fate would have him follow a very different path. One that would challenge the very foundation of humanities life upon Heim. Join Lazarus as he struggles between the revelation of the truth, and the blanket of comfort existing within a lie that hid his world from the heavens above .Complete
