Long before kings ruled the highlands of Nubara, twelve tribes lived in fractured peace - each guarding their borders, their languages, and their grudges. But when visions stir in the hills of Timbo, one boy is chosen not by sword or crown, but by a voice in the wind. Jekai, son of a wandering mother and a philosopher father, is no warrior. Yet with his shepherd's staff and the guidance of Imam Siaka Turay, he calls the scattered tribes to unity. At his side stands Maisee Dukuly, peace broker of the Mandingo, and Nyany Gray, the fearsome Loma warrior who trusts no throne. But in the shadows, betrayal sharpens its blade. As griots sing of kingdoms that never were, and drums fall silent in sacred cities, the future of a land depends on whether twelve ancient peoples can learn to become one kingdom - or fall as twelve graves. A sweeping African epic told in the language of the ancestors.

Thanks to the @ScienceFictionAmbassadors for adding my #speculativefiction #sci-fi #TheOneWhoEatsDreams to their #dystopocalypse reading list. The One Who Eats Dreams is a speculative fiction novelette, and a blend of fantasy, science fiction, and magical realism set in a dystopian South Africa, where the boundaries between dreams and reality blur. The story unfolds in a world marked by the rise of the Bubbles, shimmering domes that symbolise privilege, contrasting sharply with the struggles of those outside their confines. Central to the narrative is the legend of the Dream Eater, known as uMdli wephupho, (the one who eats dreams), a malevolent spirit that consumes dreams and has awakened due to the introduction of Dream Dust, a substance that offers an escape but leads to addiction and despair. The prologue introduces the rich mythology surrounding the Dream Eater, describing how it once served as a guardian of dreams but became corrupted by darkness. As technology advances, the whispers of ancestral wisdom fade, leaving dreamers vulnerable to this insatiable hunger. Review: The blending of African mythology with modern technology in "The One Who Eats Dreams" effectively captivates the imagination through its rich cultural context, emotional depth, and innovative storytelling. By exploring themes of identity, tradition versus modernity, and the consequences of escapism, the narrative invites readers on a thought-provoking journey that resonates on multiple levels. This unusual fusion not only enhances engagement but also encourages reflection on broader societal issues, making it an intriguing read for those interested in complex narratives that challenge conventional boundaries. The upcoming novelette explores themes of addiction, loss, and the struggle between tradition and modernity as characters grapple with their realities and strive to reclaim their dreams from an encroaching darkness. Willa and Melusi become: Mel-a. (Dedicated to you).

Amara is not a boy like the others. His birth marked the beginning of whispers-a divine curse, according to some-just as the glory of the kingdom of Tekrur began to fade. The cause? It was believed to be linked to Amara's mysterious appearance. At the age of seven, pale patches began to appear on his skin, a condition later known as vitiligo, making him both an enigma and a scapegoat for Tekrur's misfortunes. Amara's only refuge was with his mother. Yeumou, known as Lady Yemeya, was more than just a protector: she was the ground he had never left, the only constant in a world that saw him as a curse. Her love was boundless, her arms a sanctuary-but even her strength could not protect him forever. When tragedy strikes and the beloved King Buur-Ba falls, Amara is forced to flee. With only fragile hope and an uncertain destiny as his companions, he ventures beyond the borders of the only world he has ever known. Join Amara on his journey toward an unknown horizon, where each step brings him closer to a destiny he cannot yet comprehend. In this journey of loss and rediscovery, will he find the strength to rise above the weight of his past, or will the world break him before he can claim his future?

[The Shortys Longlist 2024 and First place in the 2024 Sapphire Stories Awards for: the most unique/supernatural character]. In the heart of the Cradle of Humankind, where ancient secrets sleep... Thandiwe (meaning beloved in Zulu), the caver who braved the depths of the Rising Star Cave to help unearth the remarkable Homo naledi fossils, now faces a different kind of discovery. A creature of myth and legend, the Grootslang, guards a hidden world beneath the Richtersveld - a land of stark beauty and ancient whispers. As Thandiwe ventures into the Wonder Hole, she must use her unique skills and deep respect for the land to protect the Grootslang and the fragile ecosystem it calls home. But when greed threatens to shatter the peace, Thandiwe must find a way to bridge the gap between science and folklore, becoming a guardian of both the past and the future. Winner in the @SapphireStoriesAwards for most unique supernatural being, see here: Sapphire Story Awards: https://www.wattpad.com/story/375800999-sapphire-stories-awards-judging-phase Judge @_wordswitch feedback: The Grootslang is a masterfully crafted supernatural entity that blends mythology, conservation, and emotional depth. Its unique appearance and characteristics captivate the imagination, while its role as a guardian conveys a powerful message about the balance between humanity and nature. The creature's connection to the Richtersveld's culture and environment ensures it is deeply integrated into the story, adding layers of meaning and resonance. By further expanding on its lore-particularly its origins and the mechanics of its guardianship-the Grootslang could become an even more iconic figure in the realm of fantasy and supernatural storytelling. Nonetheless, it stands as a remarkable example of how mythological creatures can transcend mere narrative tools to embody universal themes of coexistence, respect, and responsibility. A truly unique and unforgettable entity.
