The Shattered Circle by Astridhe

Aleyr Frostborn has survived a hundred prophecies of her defeat, breaking each one by slaying the champions of light sent to kill her. Amongst the forces of good, her very name is a curse, and with good reason. Beyond her own evil, it is said that so long as she lives, the reign of the Godslayer himself will last: the lich king who the terrified masses call the King in Black. While the kingdoms and empires that surround the blighted lands of the undead lands struggle to survive and beat back the tide of evil, the machinations of the Eternal Kingdom's dark court barely contain bitter struggles for power between the forces that have made it what it is. With one foretold hero brutally snuffed out, another will inevitably arise. For Aleyr, the cycle only further embitters her towards the gods of good and all those who serve them. But the truth is that her downfall might be something much closer to home than their prophecies, those last dregs of mortality beating inside her own chest. With a thoughtless intersection between cruelty and mercy, she begins a chain of events threatening to tear the Eternal Kingdom and her own loyalties into shreds. After all, many things can be broken, not just prophecies. (Posting to RoyalRoad under K.

And then there's the mtter of the Knox Brothers. Three brothers. The royals. The heirs to the throne. Drawn to them in a way, Syerin can't understand, will the trials end her? Or will love?

Paragon - Book I by azimodo

*COMPLETE* There are whispers across the kingdoms that the Paragon, that strangely gifted person who can wield all four Skills, has been found. They're wrong, of course. No one has caught the Paragon. Allayria should know: she's it. But Allayria doesn't want to be the Paragon, and in her pursuit of freedom she finds herself enmeshed in a web of lies, caught in a group who might be even more dangerous than she could have imagined. Still, she's not the only one who has problems: bigger tides of change and danger are shifting across the world she has been assigned to protect. The Jarles, a kingdom in the east, has begun moving across its borders, and there are strange murmurings about what they have done, and where all the children they abducted have gone. Faced with responsibilities she never wanted, and a life she thought she could never have, Allayria must decide how she will help--and if she will be the Paragon at all. _____________________ WIP Cover art and written work by Azi. Highest ranking: #66 in Fantasy 2/3/2018 Hi everyone! Thanks a ton for taking the time to read Paragon. I'm so excited to share it with you, and to hear your feedback, theories, and insight. It's just me, myself, and I on this one (no beta) so if you catch any errors or inconsistencies, give me a shout--it will be much appreciated. The plan is to release a new chapter each weekend until we reach the end. - Azi Note: violence, sexual themes, and some coarse language will appear in Paragon.

Bounded by Emily1208

*New Chapter Weekly* Beneath the jagged spires of the Ashen Peaks, where the bones of fallen gods are said to rest, lies Hearth's End-a village frozen in fear, its streets lined with whispered prayers that go unanswered. Ember is a ghost in her own life, walking among the villagers who cross themselves in her shadow, clutching iron charms to ward off the hum that pulses in her veins-a primordial force that bends light into blades and shatters the world with a single touch. When she saves a drowning child by turning the frozen millpond into molten glass, the fragile peace of the village crumbles. Cast out, Ember is sent to Obsidian Academy, a fortress carved into the mountainside, where she is told she will learn to control her power. But Obsidian is no sanctuary. Its labyrinthine halls are a forge, molding students into weapons for a war whispered in shadows. Here, fire-wielders and shadow-binders train under cold, calculating instructors who measure their worth in blood. And Ember's ability-to both create and consume energy-marks her as both a coveted prize and a dangerous threat. But the mountains hide darker secrets than Ember ever imagined. Whispers swirl through Obsidian's halls of an ancient hunger stirring in the void, of hollow-eyed figures who once sought power and now wear their corruption like crowns, draining life to ash with a single touch. And they are coming. For the academy. For her.

ASCELLA: The Untold (Untold Stories 1) by hanmcknz

Nevertheless, she finds herself drowning in her new battle and climbs to the peak of what she has to offer.
