For a hundred years, the empire of Reigh was ruled by the royal family.
For a hundred years it was said that people were happy and living in harmony and peace.
For a hundred years, the world knew utopia but was it the truth?

Trace moved quietly through the crowd, observing the townsfolk with an emotionless face. He went unnoticed, like a shadow, being ever-present but remained out of sight.
He wanted solitude yet all he could see was people, he tried to hurry towards his shop but for a moment the crowd overwhelmed him making him think whether killing them all would be the best course.

In some unknown corner of the world, a hooded figure moves in hopes of finding a certain 'one'. He hopes to find the hero of people, but is the one he searches for really a hero?

The man keeps visiting Maggie over the years. And when Margaret turns sixteen their father gives them a gift that will change their life for the better. Chp. 4 Preview: She was able to see what the paper had on it immediately after taking it from the shelf, and it made her heart immediately drop. Her blood sugar fell, and her face became pale, feeling dizzy. Her heart began racing as she saw me staring at her. The drawing she just found was a realistic depiction of myself smiling at the person who saw it. Unlike myself, who felt joy and inspiration from seeing father draw me this, mother was scared witless. Her legs became jelly, her body was paralyzed. All she could do was stare at the drawing, knowing that no one could have drawn this except an adult. And she knew I did not talk to any adults- or did I? Now she couldn't be too sure. This picture was from someone who knew how I looked, even getting the dimples on my cheeks and small birthmark on the side of my neck. It was someone that had to know me very well.

Broken Fairy Tales by lovelycrowsong

Something had happened in Fae, something so big that it broke the number one rule. Whatever had happened, was big enough to affect the humans. First there had been rumours that the mass die off of politicians and top international business leaders had been targeted in the largest revolt in all of history. When no group came forward to claim responsibility, eventually someone noticed a pattern, that nearly all the dead, were known to be corrupt. Whatever had happened, Rhys wasn't going to stick around in the cities to see what had happened. He grabbed his bike, and took off, planning to set up in some remote mountain. Ride out whatever disaster was coming. Fate however, had other plans, and Rhys found himself in the middle of exactly what he had been running away from.

A Country Life by tristam_james

Three hundred years after the fall, the known world is beginning to regain a semblance of order, with the sword the ultimate power once more. But not everything of old was lost, and there are some that will exert deadly effort to obtain what was left behind. Orphaned, plague-marked and mistrusted by the community he lives in, a boy must come to terms with the fact that he is different from everyone else, but is soon the focus of unwelcome and deadly attention. Separated from her father, a young girl has to learn to survive in a foreign land haunted by tribes of ghosts and roving bands of piratical thralls to a sadistic King. A watcher keeps lonely vigil from within a fortress that has been under siege for hundreds of years, while a soldier dies for the twenty-third time, and dies again while wondering if he is going mad. First started in 2015, this story is at 50k+ words, but was removed when a plotting hiccup was encountered. I now intend to split it into three parts, and this is the complete Part 1. Part 2 will begin once I've finished editing another work... Please vote and comment, as your input will help shape the story. Enjoy!

Empire of Shadows (On Hold) by __shadowsinger__

The world has been spread in darkness. The streets are empty. The wall that separates the mortal and magical realms is crumbling. ~ In a world cleaved in half, Rhiannon Ashton hunts to protect her family. When her sister is taken beyond the Wall that seperates the Mortal and Magical realms, Rhiannon vows to rescue her sister. As she crosses the wall, Rhiannon realises that nothing is as it seems. The mysterious Queen who rules the Kingdom, rumours of the promised one, a war that will rattle the stars... ~ "Listen to me," He said fiercely. "You know nothing about this place. This place, this is nothing like your mortal world. This is an empire. This is an empire of death. One wrong word, and girl, you will end up in a ditch somewhere, missing your intestines. Right now - your only ally is me. So, you better listen," His voice was contrite with barely controlled anger. "Why are you helping me?" There was only tiredness in my voice. He laughed, humourlessly. "You don't remember me?" He asked softly. I shook my head. "Rezial. You can call me Rezial," He said. He stood, a cloak billowing around him. His eyes were bright spots in the dark. "What happened to... - Was this place always like this?" I said. Rez paused in his stride, turning to face me. "Not always," He said. There was something almost like grief in his voice. He waved his hand again, the plate vanishing. A moment later, the shadows in the room gathered into one spot, the inkiness rising until he was completely covered in darkness that was somehow darker than the rest. The shadows disappeared, and he was gone.

Into the Depths | Chronicles of Nemo by Karmanya_KOW

"After you achieved your revenge, after that brief moment of ecstasy at finally doing it, killing the person who caused you so much harm, you felt empty inside. It's as if all the actions you took, all the sacrifices you made, all the people you cut off, in the end they were all meaningless. Some forms of revenge help you grow into someone new, be it better or worse. But revenge like ours, they just make us feel like everything would be better without us." "And?" "And I don't want anyone to give into that hopelessness, that emotion is exclusively for me." A lone journey through life, scarred by the actions taken in the past, guided by the promise to ensure it happens to no other in the world. Nemo was not a hero, nor did he try to masquerade as one, but when one's aim is to hurt the ones that exploit others and aid those who need it, some may mistake him as one, and who is he to argue. On a regular day, around dusk, the assassin is tasked to break into a castle. It was supposed to be a simple payday for Nemo, but a strange encounter with another, slighted by the world, hell-bent on revenge, the circumstance too familiar for him to ignore. How do two scorned by the fates help each other to become complete as they fight against the malice everpresent in the world? (Book 1 is Updated Every 2 Weeks)
