Princess Lily of Eden has always done whatever her twin brother, crown prince Jeremiah, did, whether it be sword fighting or learn politics, but as she grew older her behavior is viewed as less and less acceptable. When war strikes her kingdom, she does all she can from the confines of the capital, but it is not enough. Her men are dying. Her towns are burned to the ground. Her people are hungry. The death of the general and her father's reluctance to replace him pushes Lily over the edge and she takes matters into her own hands. She was determined to save her kingdom even if it meant leaving the safety of the castle, perhaps never to be allowed back in. Runner-up in the 2016 FCRA's Cover by: @Penneywithaney

Iduna Swan was never meant to live in Forks, Washington. Her life was supposed to be a simple one, far away from her Uncle Charlie and his daughter, Bella. She was supposed to spend her days in her garden, listening to nature, working at the local flower shop, but with the illness of her mother, Iduna goes to the place she swore never to return to. The place where her father died and she lived. The place where a golden-haired angel decided to save her life. But Forks isn't just the home to her worst memory. It's also home to a dark secret that she's sworn to protect. The same secret that was behind her father's death all those years ago. ------ A Carlisle Cullen fanfiction that is also a retelling of a norse myth. The only reason this is a fanfiction is because I can't be bothered to make it an original yet. Later on, there probably will be an original version that I'll write. Cover by @Pennywithaney

With the mind and spirit of an animal, her talents shine above all others. So much, that she has been chosen by the masked man to act upon her desire of protection. By the masked man's unfailing trust around her neck and her instincts of honour and loyalty bound around her soul, she is determined to put an end to the kingdom's darkness. However, along the way, her courage will be tested. Along with her heart. The weaknesses that she caged in so long ago, will threaten to spill out. Including a dangerous, unbreakable bondage between her and another that even she cannot deny. ~~~~~ A Sleeping Beauty, Robin Hood, and Mulan retelling. With a hint of Rapunzel.

A mangled curse. An old feud. A horrible monster. Ever since the Beast overthrew the King three years ago, the country of Fabel has been on the edge of chaos and Annalise's nameless village is one of many places hanging onto order by a fraying thread. With only a thin stretch of danger infested forest away from the old castle, it's prime hunting ground for the Beast. As if fending off regular attacks weren't enough, denying the advances of a monster hunter turns out to be harder than it ought to be, especially since Anna already has an engagement ring on her finger. But it only takes one broken bargain to shatter everything Annalise knows. To save her father from a fatal mistake, Anna agrees to take his place as the Beast's prisoner. But she hasn't given up on going home so she strikes a deal of her own. She can leave the castle, but only if she breaks the curse that binds the Beast - a curse he can't tell her how to break. But as Anna struggles to figure out how to release the Beast from his enchantment before time runs out, she catches the attention of the Enchantress who first cast it, an Enchantress with a long memory and unfinished business. And she doesn't plan on fighting fair. (Formerly Red as Roses)

Retellings Unite is the daughter account of @FairytaleCommunity. However, we have a different goal. We want all retellings (even the ones from writers who are just finding their footing) to have a place in the Wattpad Community. Oh yeah, and we want there to be a genre just for Retellings. Yeah, that.

FCRAs Runner-Up! Take a step back from the Snow White tale you know. Step back to get a better look. Skin pale as snow. Hair black as ebony. Lips red as blood. What does that sound like to you, dear reader? A creature of the dark. One that lives in the shadows, that cowers at the bright glow of the sun, that lives on the blood of others. She's manipulative, or she's magic, for no one seems to see the harm she does. Only the sweet, innocent facade that she puts up. When I married her father, that's all I saw as well. But on his death bed, he made me promise to end her because he never could. I promised him. I failed. • • • As the young Queen Maris is left to rule the icy kingdom her husband left her, dreams of the summer wind in her heart, she's left with the shocking dilemma the king has given her as his dying wish.

But when Beck comes back empty handed, Maris is left with only one choice. She has to be the one to kill Snow White. With Beck at her side, Maris sets out to rid Krithane of the icy grip that Snow has on it. But how can she defeat her when so many others have failed?
