They watched him before they ever knew his name. In a world powered by Aether, Zion learned early that strength makes people afraid-and fear turns into control, suspicion, and silence. Labeled dangerous. Watched too closely. Judged before he speaks. But storms don't ask for permission. When Zion's hidden power awakens, it draws the attention of forces that want to use him-or erase him. As discrimination tightens its grip, Zion must choose between staying small to survive... or rising and becoming what the world fears most. High above the clouds, Amira of Solaira carries a different kind of power-warmth, fire, and hope. When their paths collide, storm and sun form the Dual Current, a force capable of restoring balance-or breaking the world apart.

In a world built on flame and bloodlines, Nia'tari was never meant to rise. She was supposed to forget. To burn. To vanish like the others. But the flame chose her. And so did the root. Now, as ancient Houses tremble and hidden bloodlines awaken, Nia'tari becomes more than a name-she becomes a bridge. Between memory and creation. Between what was, and what was never allowed to be. From cliffside villages to lost cities buried in silence, a new kind of fire begins to spread-one that remembers everything. One that refuses to be erased. She is not the end. She is the beginning of those who carry both flame and root. And the world must decide: Will it burn... or bloom?

Long before memory was carried in fire and bloodlines ruled with sigils, there was only Form-and the girl who dared to name it. Sungbo was born with no House, no lineage, and no right to the power she carried. In a village that feared flame and punished questions, she was marked as cursed. But when the fire called her name-and she called back-it awakened something ancient: memory, magic, and a truth older than the Seven Houses. Banished and hunted, Sungbo builds a new Circle of the Unclaimed: children abandoned by legacy, forgotten by blood, but chosen by the flame. As her power grows, so does the threat-because those in power don't fear her strength. They fear what she remembers. This is the untold beginning. Of root and fire. Of rebellion and return. Of the girl who didn't inherit the flame- she became it.

A girl, abandoned by the world finds herself on the run from the world that has abandoned her. In her bid to escape, she encounters 'something' older than the world she seeks to escape.

No one considers what could kill a dragon. What would be bold enough to rip her from the sky? King Daran the brave, the boy who refused to kneel and paid with his life.

King Daran the Brave has been fighting in the wars of his father since he was fifteen years old, now a man of seventeen he finds himself dangling between life and death when someone comes to him. Someone with an offer to make that may change his world.

A science-fantasy short story containing Caribbean & African influence, inspired by the instrumental "Auri Sacra Fames" by Adrian Von Ziegler.

In the sun-scorched lands of Ishara, where Aura shapes destiny and Echo Beasts roam, a prophecy whispers of a child born to end an unending dusk. Centuries ago, Azar-once a golden prodigy of the Jua Tribe-ignited his own downfall by stealing a sacred feather, birthing a cursed ember that twisted his light into shadow. Banished to the Obsidian Dunes, he forged a kingdom of silence, his Veiled Aura echoing through time. Now, a new dawn rises with Kairo, born of Imani faith and Jua light under three suns, his harmony bending nature itself. Yet, as tribes fracture over hope and fear, Kairo's gifts mirror Azar's past, drawing the Shadow King's ancient gaze. With Echo Beasts stirring and the dunes pulsing with memory, Kairo must navigate a divided legacy-salvation or repetition-while the prophecy looms, promising balance at a cost only the dunes understand.
