Coming back from a meditative trip over the Sacred Sea, Kya found that the bustling and bright Island she lives on was desolate. Not a soul could be found: no bodies, no injured, and most distressingly, no indication as to what happened-- or where the good elves and humans could be. Alone she set off to seek Jasper, a grim half-elf seer, whose mysterious exploits often led him away from the Island-- as they did only shortly before Kya set off herself-- to recover the lost. With the help of a travel-weary, forlorn man named Nicholai whom she meets in a riotous tavern town (and whose estranged wife is among the missing) and the roving Jasper, Kya embarks on a wild, harrowing quest across a land filled with peril to seek and save the vanished peoples of the island, preserve the magic of the Sacred Birch, and learn for herself the feats that love can accomplish.

Now making her way across the fractured lands of Elyndor-the land of the Fae-Ria must navigate ancient kingdoms, twisted alliances, and a world that she no longer remembers-but one that may still need her. As secrets surface and enemies draw closer, she's pulled toward a fate written in blood and flame... and toward a bond she never expected. Her heart is pulled in two directions and yet there is only one path.

Wings of Fate
Animosity between Humans and Faeriekind has long plagued the lands of Orphic, but began to fade in recent years. However, the newfound peace between species balances on a very thin thread which may soon break. With the emergence of a group known as Ironblades, Faeriekind is once again in danger. These Humans will stop at nothing to see all Faeries, and anyone born of Faerie blood, burnt to ash. Kalian Deirdre may be his people's last hope. It is up to him to infiltrate an Ironblade unit and uncover the true nature of their plot against Faeries before it's too late, but that will prove difficult. Moira Lev is an Ironblade Commander and well known for her hatred towards Faeries. Getting close to her won't be an easy task, and remaining undiscovered will be even harder. Regardless of the risks, Kalian is determined to succeed. He has to, or it will mean the extinction of his species as a whole. Warning: This book, while being a work of fiction, still deals with real elements. There are chapters dealing with sexual content, gore, PTSD, child loss (prior to current story), genocide, torture, and other topics which some might find triggering.

Tasperwood: Book Two
Braving the dangerously magical Tasperwood to discover the source of the taint affecting the Rhyswater river, font of magic for both humans and elves, the oddly assembled group of humans and elves sent by their rulers has finally reached the Heartwood: the most deadly region of the Tasperwood, where magic is as tangled and slippery as the relationships between the travelers. Things go badly from the start, as the group gets separated by a deadly spell, and not everyone returns. Those who do must formulate a plan to rescue one of their number, and find both unexpected help, and dangers beyond imagining. Boggart-blooded mage Zach finds his past coming back to bite with a vengeance. Knight Keith sees his worst nightmares come true as he is unable to save those he loves. Elf Tryss and half-sylph Torin find their relationship, and their joined skills, tested to their limits. Foresteye elf Vesper sees the culmination of his most dire foresights-without surprise-and plans the ultimate sacrifice. Is there any hope that they can both escape with their lives, and cure the tainted Rhyswater?Complete

[NaNoWriMo 2014; Wattys 2014] WARNING. THIS IS A VERY ROUGH, FIRST DRAFT AND HAS NOT BEEN EDITED AT ALL. The land of Elseer has steadily been dying. With only the words of a long-forgotten prophecy to guide them, speaking of both destruction and renewal, the lives of the people hang in the balance, resting all on a single person. Hidden and on the run, he has never settled in one place for more than a few weeks. He is elusive, and mysterious, not the one she thought she would meet in the streets of the busiest city in Elseer. Certainly not the one that the goddess is driving her towards. Last of Elves Book 1 #216 Adventure!Complete
