They say nothing was left of Ravenna Aphelion... nothing but her ancestral amber ring and a scared little girl clinging to it and crying in the ash of her home, broken but unburnt. 

Season 1 of Broken But Unburnt

***

Years later, three kingdoms are on the verge of war. Karil seeks to wipe out the magic that Idoria worships and Delos is caught in the middle, taking refugees and making alliances that are raising tensions more than diffusing them. A man in the West calls himself The Chaos and is doing his best to live up to the name, a prophecy has scholars on the edge, and religious zealots are flooding the streets and committing violent acts against those against the belief.

This world needs salvation. And it may come from the most unlikely of sources; the bastard of a sullen king, an assassin with a deadly secret, and a monster hunter from an ancient order. 

They may not save the world but they will give it a choice. Resurrection or ruin? What will humanity choose?

✨ SEASON 1 OF A VAMPIRE ROMANCE STORY "QUEEN OF ASHES": "It took one day for her life to turn upside down. From the bastard daughter of the king, Freya somehow ended up being on her way to the vampire court as their future queen. As if that was not enough, it became pretty obvious during the journey, that the man she truly wanted was not the man she was supposed to marry. Leander was not a big fan of humans but joining the mission of accompanying his brother's future spouse came as an order, so the order he had to follow. One thing he could not have predicted, and it was his growing respect and protectiveness toward the human he had to deliver." »»-----　⚜　-----«« "QUEEN OF ASHES" is planned to be 3-seasons long. Season 1 doesn't end with a cliffhanger but naturally separates one act of the story from the other. I've decided to write the second season offline, and then post it. Season 2 is already in the making. I'll keep you informed!

Mortance: A Miscarriage of Hope by cheeseisjar
43 parts Complete Mature
Twelve-hundred years ago, the first king of Sacreon led a rebellion against an empire of witches. The war for who would rule next continues to this day. A false guise of peace came over Ert after two genocides, but there is no one so foolish as to claim the fighting is done. A prophecy claims that war will return to Ert when the moons are full once again on Ascenday. That day is growing closer now, and there is not a fool in the warring nations who does not dread its coming. In the midst of this all, the heirs to Sacreon struggle to find their place in this world of kings and knights and gods and elves and witches. A princess falls for someone she cannot hope to have, prince travels south to broker an alliance, a warrior seeks vengeance for the death of her sister. and the heir to a long forgotten kingdom quests for glory. Behind all of this, one man journeys north to an island of long forgotten magic with plans of justice, and The Wolf Witch goes west, searching for the one who can stop this war and unite Ert once again: The Silver Girl. Note: The Wolf Witch is meant to be a prequel to this book, and Sora will make an appearance, but she will not be a main character. By the way I take huge inspiration and influence from A Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones so if you like that you'll probably like this (and my other writings I hope). Cover created by the most excellent @apprehensiveanne. It's very cool.

Running into more trouble than she realized, she opened more than her trust when she took a leap of faith and let someone else into her small world. There was more to him than he told her, but she dived head-first into trusting him. Around every twist and turn with no answers, she didn't see the dangers that lurked behind her by letting someone in before it put her and everyone she knew in © 2023 M.E.Watson
