Charlotte

“…if you had opened your window that night from the castle, you would have enjoyed a true spectacle. She was standing beneath the vastness of the sky, just a sliver above the grass, brushing against it with a generous thin dress, barefoot. Swinging her hips and putting her arms up, she was getting into a tender dance, caressing the flower buds, brushing the ground, the tree barks and the wet leaves of the night.”

City of Sun and Fire

A Royal death. A mystery to be solved. A tragic adventure.

When the King of Golester, City of Sun, is killed by an unknown intruder, an immediate investigation is opened. The job is handed to the two best and most dangerous detective agents in the city, Lea Haramat and Axel Mondirio, Elf and Fae, both wielders of fire magic. They are on a mission to solve the mystery of the King’s murder before a looming deadline. But the deeper they look, the further they dig, the darker the case becomes.

All the help two agents can find is a cocky air force leader with a hot temper, and a desperate blue-haired water-dweller with a kind heart. Slowly, the extent of the menacing puzzle casts a shadow over the detectives, and they face far more than they had bargained for. Nothing is as it seems, and a tangled, ancient web begins to unravel all around them.

Is it truly possible to survive a mystery?

This is the case to uncover old legends. This is the case to shatter the world.

The organisation is full of people who strive to protect their world, but when one person dares to ask the question no one else has thought of, the consequences shake the ground and the two types of people must decide what they really are fighting for.

In a world where Light threatens to corrupt and conquer, Taithe, a prisoner, possesses something invaluable: a formidable sword. This relic lures enemies from every corner – human, Effelin, and Dwarf alike – all desperate to claim its power and conceal their betrayals. But amidst this chaos, dark magic rises, vying to curb Light’s dominance.

Rescued from the clutches of the malevolent Spite and on the brink of death, Taithe is transported to Dwarrowdelve, the fabled lost mine of Dwarvern legends. Here, alongside the fierce Effelin Caliphe and the legendary Tunnel-Hunters, The Styx, he confronts a multitude of foes, from vicious black wolves to lurking Orcs and other treacherous beings.

But the most insidious threat of all is the Imp who shadows Taithe, hungry for the stolen treasure. In the depths of Dwarrowdelve, alliances will be tested, loyalties forged, and a choice must be made: to stand with the Light or embrace the Rock and Shadows. The balance of the world teeters on this decision, with Spite’s freedom – and the potential downfall of all – in the balance. The true enemy isn’t always as it seems; will they discern it in time?

Edinnu, Species 161

The impending End of Daegs were upon the inhabitants of the planet. They had acknowledged long ago that they had no other option than to venture out into the distant stars and search for the new Eden which Gavril had apparently found on his reconnaissance, somewhere that they can call home once more.

Gidhon stood on the deck observing the planet below. He could hear the constant ebb of the starship, and his thoughts turned to the heavily laden underbelly which sat beneath his feet, his cargo… their future, for without them they as a species will not survive.

“Is all well, Gidhon?” a voice asked.

He groaned inwardly, and it was then that he remembered he was not alone, never alone to his thoughts, he shook his head as he heard Athena’s voice. Just why had they made this choice, he will never know, he thought.
