Cadence Nardini is an eighteen year old human girl who lives in the world of Dodrore: a world mostly inhabited by non-human beings. Being a human puts Cadence at a natural disadvantage, in the way that she is at the bottom of the food chain, and has no magical abilities to help fend for herself in the world of the supernatural. However, despite all that, she has managed to work her way up into the police force of Skeusil. To protect her country, and any within the continental borders that requested assistance, was her job.
One day, Cadence receives a letter that informs her of a case in one of the neighboring countries. What makes this request odd is that the country of Astrine has been completely silent since the fall of their royal family three years ago. Many thought that it simply wasn't inhabited anymore; that perhaps the people fled to other countries and left the landscape to die. But someone had to have written and sent the letter, asking for assistance with recountings of murders, and a species called Soul Stealers that Cadence has never heard of.
This human quickly finds out that this case will take a lot more than what she had initially expected. So with the help of her friend, Michael, and a witty siren; they set out to discover the truth behind all these murders. But at what cost will the truth unfold?

"Goodbye Curly Head"
Through thick and thin the Law shall prevail. A new sense of purpose awaits us, children of light, in the land where it all began. The darkness in which we once cowered in fear, now curbed by the might of our endless light. Come, brothers, come, sisters. Let there be peace among the wicked, just as the Law dictates. Peace and certainty is all that you have ever longed for, little angel. A bright, stable future. A roof without holes above thy head. Acknowledgement and recognition of thy existence, feverish dreams of grandeur. Greed born from yearning, treacherous vines of rapacity taint your innocent soul. You seek a future that does not exist. Let thy fingers hold the fragile line between dream and nightmare. Let thy light navigate the path. Shall thee give in and falter, O' land of old, envelop his body in thy unending flame of chaos. Spit out nothing but an empty husk, the remnants of a smile once so bright. Shall thee prevail, O', Great Kazdel, I ask of you, the impossible - take mercy on the innocent. Don't let the radiance dim and don't let the mind turn bleak. Wake, young traveler. Bid thy farewells and burn thy bridges. It's time to say goodbye, curly head. Cross post from AO3. For a shorter and more on-point description, look no further! I had something silly written up before throwing it out in exchange for that wall of text upstairs. It's a little story "about a young, dumb sankta who's been dealt a bad hand at life, looking for his place in all this mess. The pointless search for a better future leads him far, far away from home, to a country forever ravaged by war and misery - Kazdel, the promised land where devils roam free and peace feels out of place." Anyway, it's quite lengthy, but hopefully enjoyable? Slide a comment if you want, I'll give you a tiny kiss on the forehead. Man, do I love comments. (Lastly, to point out, English is not my native language, but I don't think it'll be much of an issue ;3)Complete

The Mystics Of Valenthia
"So who the heck am I?" I stared defiantly at Freya. "I am a normal person. I go to high school. I have parents. What am I ?" I asked. "That is what we need to find out. Do you trust us enough to stay with us? Help us? You are powerful. You are the only Palenthian, first time in centuries who has magic inside her. Powerful magic. More powerful than most Valen. I can feel it. Stay with us and help us slay monsters. Please." I gulped. "What will I get for that?" "Answers." Renna Evans was just another normal girl in another normal world, living with her normal (and filthy rich) parents and going to a normal high school. Basically her life was as normal as could be. Until she went on a normal walk on a hill side. Little did Renna know that from that point, her life would be anything but normal.

Will she be able to prove her worth in this new world? Or will her world collapse? And what about the handsome but mysterious Ryan Carter? What exactly is he hiding? Renna will discover a world of peace and war, love and hatred, trust and betrayal; all in her single quest for one thing. FREEDOM.Complete

Survival_Chance: Zero (Male! OC / Reader x Murder Drones)
Copper-9 is what you would call a wasteland. After an incident that destroyed the planets Core, humans moved into space. The only inhabits are nuclear radiation, frozen corpses of humans, and the drones. Worker Drones was weak, cowardly, best replacement for humans. Disassembly Drones, though, are a little different. They kill Worker Drones for their oil, and are sent by the humans to collect oil. The two drones, according to each other, cannot coexist together due to one of them needing to kill the other. Zero was one of those drones that was born from the Union of a Worker Drone, Yuri, and a Disassembly Drone named X. Over the course of his life, he is outcasted, but luckily he had a friend there through it all. However, when Uzi wants to sneak out one night to find a part of a Railgun, not only does his past get further revealed, but grows attached to a group of girls he thought he would never be with. P.S. I don't own anything except from Zero, which is my OC. Everything else, including music, creatures, and artwork, belongs to their respective owners.
