It has been centuries since the downfall of the evil King Luth, but things in Triliad are far from peaceful. The kobolds in the north are growing bolder, striking out at the nearby villages. Tales of orc packs randomly looting merchant carts and needlessly attacking patrols of soldiers around Arrowglen grow numerous. Hobgoblins roam freely across previously protected land. And in the Evergreen forest, home of the woodland elves, trouble is brewing.
Varis Galanodel, an elvish archdruid, has sworn an oath to the natural world, an oath he puts above all else. So when the forest he cherishes so dearly starts dying, Varis sets off on a quest to find the source of this sudden decay and stop it.
Unbeknownst to Varis, an ancient evil is stirring, one that no one could possibly remember. The enemy is much bigger than anyone could have foreseen, and it falls unto Varis to stop it...or the entirety of Triliad will fall.

The Crownless Lands
Welcome, traveler. Step into the Crownless Lands-a realm that should have been golden but never was. The maps still show grand borders; the songs still promise glory. But up close you'll find frayed banners, broken vows, and people trying to live between the teeth of history. Here, adventurers hunt fortunes that refuse to be found. Heroes rise late or fall early. Lives are traded, stolen, and sometimes-miraculously-saved. And the creatures? Some stalk the roads and terrorize the villages. Others arrive with a lesson sharp as a blade. And the kingdom's worst monsters wear crowns made of lies. --- What You're Getting Into: A weekly high/dark-fantasy pulp serial-fast, moody, full of intrigue, sorcery, and razor twists. Each episode lands a complete beat and ends on a cliffhanger. Where It All Unravels: A continent under a failing crown: forts crumble, roads go quiet, new rules harden. Towns and frontiers fend for themselves-more grit than resources. Bloodlines, Beasts & the In-Between: Shifts among humans, elves, dwarves, orcs, and classic creatures-some scourge, some uneasy allies. How the Story Moves: Chapters leap across the map, braiding many plots into one struggle. Local skirmishes mirror the bigger fight for a crown no one can hold. The People Worth Bleeding For: An ensemble of adventurers, exiles, heirs, and schemers. Not every arc finds light-some rise late, fall early, or trade all for one mercy. Your Weekly Drop: New chapters every Thursday, 6-10k words. Each deepens the world, sharpens the cast, and drives the saga-great for weeklies and first-timers. Important Note: The story follows multiple destinies; chapters are non-sequential and jump between plots across the Crownless Lands.

While carrying out her duty, Aearon found herself at the mercy of the cold Prince of Mirkwood and King Thranduil himself. Finding herself locked in Thranduil's dungeon, the she-elf soon finds herself becoming friends with the most unlikely of creatures who steer her life on to a whole new path. Accompanying the group of dwarves to their home, Aearon finds herself battling both foe and feeling as she struggles to survive the dangers of middle earth. Will she allow herself to become compromised by her feelings or will she continue on her journey to prove herself. Either way, she will do whatever it takes to keep her word and help her friends while avoiding another stay in King Thranduil's dungeon, much to his displeasure.

Mythara: Rise of the Emberlords
When gods burn and dragons wake, the world will kneel to flame. When the gods fell, their fires were buried beneath stone and shadow. Centuries later, the kingdoms of Mythara stand divided-each guarding the fading embers of an age long past. In Valmaria, Queen Maerwynn I defends her realm with honor and flame, unaware that the sacred Eternal Ember flickers with its final light. In the volcanic reaches of Askaroth, the demon warlord Daegon forges armies from molten rock, dreaming of dominion through fire and blood. Meanwhile, in the forests of Selvarin, whispers of prophecy stir among the Elves: the Emberlords shall rise again. As old powers awaken and dragonfire once more scorches the skies, heroes and tyrants alike must decide whether to rekindle the light of creation-or wield it to unmake the world. The age of kings is ending. The age of fire is beginning.
The Last Stand: A Defenders of Middle Earth AU
The North has fallen. Mithlond burns. Frodo never returned from Mordor. Now the tide of darkness rises unchecked, sweeping across Middle-earth like a second great shadow. In this alternate retelling of the War of the Ring, the free peoples stand scattered and broken. Glorfindel, once a beacon of light, is taken by Sauron, his fate unknown. Caledorn, a solemn elven warrior, is sent east in search of Rukil, a rebel Easterling warlord who may hold the key to survival. Meanwhile, Gerithor, a seasoned Dúnedain ranger, and the dwarf Kalan brave the storm in the South, seeking to aid Helm's Deep before it is crushed beneath the weight of a united host of Orcs, Corsairs, and traitors. As alliances fray and hope fades, a handful of heroes must rise not to win, but to endure. To buy time. To light a single torch against the night. Because sometimes, the end is not victory. Sometimes, the Last Stand is all that remains. Following the events of Defenders of Middle Earth Part One, this AU details what would have happened if the Fellowship, and Gerithor's company, had failed in their tasks.

This story really starts in the middle. Ari, who often goes by A, is propped up against a tree in the middle of a forest with a dagger in her stomach. She's lost a lot of blood already, and she keeps losing more. Helios is kneeling next to her, and they're both trying to figure out what to do. I'll start at the beginning, though.

Luckily for her, the chief of the Akiire tribe takes her in. Akiire medicine men and women fuss over her until they're sure she's safe. Then the Akiire initate her as a member of their tribe. She gladly accepts. She's started to like it there, after all. Then Helios starts talking to her. He's nothing special in the tribe. He's a good warrior, but all the warriors are good. The bad ones have already died. Nonetheless, by the time we get to the forest with the dagger and all that, A has only spoken to Helios a few times. Now he's her only way to stay alive.Complete
The Humanoid ~Vash x OC AU~
~Vash x OC AU~ Book 2 of 3 *Began: Monday, April 22, 2024* *Finished: Wednesday, August 7, 2024* Sometimes... Sometimes I have nightmares. Nightmares that I wake from in the middle of the night, sweat-soaked hair clinging to my neck as my chest heaves. Nightmares with unknown ghosts and the haunting shrieks ripping through darkness. Nightmares that are so real that I almost believe they are real. They are never real, though. Nightmares of shooting stars made of fallen debris crumbling from a tower. Nightmares of screaming sirens and pounding feet and flashing red lights as military police fill the streets. Nightmares of tears drenching my cheeks as I scream out into the void. And then nightmares of him laughing as hell rain down around us. I wonder if he has nightmares too. **NOTE: I do NOT own any of the media (pictures/photos/videos/music/etc.) or any characters (other than the OC - and other OC characters) in this book.
