This story is under revision. I am currently rewriting the entire thing. Since this is the past version, I may continue to post the rest of the chapters.

Trusting people can be hard when there's someone trying to murder you on the loose. Especially when that someone tried to kill you on a trip only a few people were supposed to know about. Scarlett has to find out who is trying to murder her, but that's hard to do when she has so many people who are out to get her. And the fact that she's been known to be a ruthless ruler to her people doesn't help her case. With the help of a new friend and some old ones she starts investigating. Along the way she realizes she has loosened the reins on her feelings for her new friend, but will this affect her?

A very short story about armed resistance.

A girl who sees ghosts. A magic out of control. A group hellbent on destroying what they’re afraid of.

Maddie Johnson is sent to a mental institution because she talks to people who aren’t there. She insists that they’re ghosts. Just as she thinks she’s convinced the doctors that she is fine, a dark-haired ghost with dreamy brown eyes rushes in and ruins everything.

Instead of going home, she is sent to a halfway house that helps people with mental illness assimilate back into society. Problem is, one of the residents hates her and the house is haunted – oh, and the cute ghost has followed her. Maddie tries to get away, but then she hurts someone using magic she didn’t know she possessed. Now she has a new problem. She will have to learn to control her magic.

She discovers that the town has secrets; people are going missing. How far are people willing to go to destroy what they are afraid of? Maddie and her attractive-but-annoying spirit might just find out first-hand.

FIRE AND MAGICis an exciting first book in the JadoriSeriesthat will transport romantasy fans to a fascinating world that exists within our own, filled with suspense, danger, magic, ghosts, and romance.

Summary: In a lawless world where chaos runs unchecked, a hidden city stands as a beacon of perfection, nestled deep within the wilderness. Its citizens live under strict control, their lives orchestrated by a regime that promises safety, order, and purity. Beyond its borders, the “free government” rules over an untamed and reckless society, its people lost to the grip of drugs, alcohol, and vice. The two worlds seem like polar opposites—until an unlikely pair discovers the truth that ties them together. She is flawless, a shining symbol of her perfect city. He is everything she is not—wild, rebellious, and a product of the free government’s chaotic world. When their fates intertwine, their journey uncovers a web of lies that neither could have imagined. As they pull back the layers, they learn that the two governments—seemingly at odds—are secretly working together in a chilling alliance. The free government’s chaos serves as a distraction, while the perfect government quietly pulls the strings to protect the last vestiges of humanity. But their partnership is far from equal. The perfect government harbors a hidden compassion: it rescues aborted children from the free world, raising them in safety and order. It sends its own citizens into the contaminated outside world, sacrificing their purity to sustain life. The free government, meanwhile, exploits its people, feeding them addictions and chaos to maintain control. Yet, the perfect government’s noble intentions are buried under its oppressive rules, casting doubt on its morality. As the girl and boy unravel these secrets, they are forced to question everything—perfection versus freedom, control versus chaos, and whether salvation comes at too high a cost. Two governments, bound together in corruption, yet only one dares to care for its people. In a world where trust is shattered, what remains is the unyielding hope of two souls, fighting to uncover the truth and forge a path where none exists.

Here's the collection of the soundtracks from my book series "Stronger Together" that you can find on my profile. All the lyrics are written by me, while music is created by Suno AI.

Since I found such a good AI app as Suno, I've been obsessed with a wish to start writing my own songs again. I wrote something several years ago, but those works were super terrible, and I wish they never exisited. But now I've come back to this, and I'm now trying to do my best to give you the best experience. I'm not sure if I follow the rules of writing songs, but I'm doing my best to make them better. Writing songs in English is a real challenge to me. So, I ask you not to judge me too hard, and I will be really happy if you check this work out, like it, add it to your reading list, and leave a sweet comment.

Cute, short story created by NFT Sizzle.

Lily Valley , a fortunate Immortal to be able to live in a very ancient time when the poison that dwells in her body was viewed as vengeful spirits who kill those who harm her . She lived in villages and thanks to that belief they prayed to her as if she was a higher being .

Even in this modern era she kept her power even obtaining technology through the poisons in her body . But as a threat for carrying so many ancient diseases and poison to the world , she was cast out into another .

“Chrissy has always felt like she didn’t belong, but she never expected the reason to be hidden beneath the waves. Drawn to a haunted lighthouse and a mysterious underwater cave that calls to her, she begins unraveling secrets about her past—secrets that could change everything. As she searches for the magic she knows exists, she discovers something even more impossible: she is the daughter of a mermaid. But with dark forces determined to keep the truth buried, Chrissy must uncover her destiny before the tide pulls her under for good.”

Conflict is regarded by some as a poison that continually lays waste to mortal-kind. By others it is defined as the very life blood- the driving force that makes life evolve. Some may view it as both, essential like water though too much and one will surely pass. And for those whom this story began with, they might certainly argue that they've had far too much to drink.

Many an event has transpired over the course since this world's creation. It has been 17 years since ten came together to tell a tale within the realm of PSony-3 via the Home Lands. It has been 15 years since the start of the Warring States- the fall of kingdoms and the war of businesses, and of course the devastating guild wars of the Demonic Arms and the Cynder Alliance. 11 years since the Terminator Wars which culminated in the end of Home a decade ago. 9 years since the Dark Council and 8 since the Tatara Conflict. 7 since the notorious battle of Order and Chaos, 6 since the Reaper Insurrection alongside the Demon Rebellion. 5 years since the Tatara fell, and 4 since the last tale was told. And here we are, 2025, where the next chapter is about to unfold.

Though it has not been exclusively violence along the war. Many a character arc, many a bonding moment between allies, the formation of families, the games and tales shared between. Those with motivations of grandeur, those with desires of vengeance, those with plans to change the world itself, and those who... want to open a tea shop and sing songs on the beach? WHO WROTE THIS?!

A Fantasy DnD, minus the DnD, plus the writers, plus the community. A world where you can be anyone or anything, where anything is possible. A place for those wandering aimlessly with no insight or direction to what they want.

To you we say... Welcome Home~

[Vol 1 Synopsis]

Though the foundation of the world appears to be one of chaos, there does exist order. For decades, powerful orders have stood atop the world to preserve their fair share of peace and justice. Even as powers threatening their respective worlds raged forward, those under the protection of the Great Powers would not buckle. One such order is that of the Shadow Dominions, one which holds a special place in their heart for the 'lesser' races such as the Demonic. Regardless of their desire to crusade and take more of the demon lands, few powers in history have successfully challenged the full might of the Dominions... though in recent times, tragedy has befallen the order.

With the loss of Shadow Blackheart, head of both it and the Blackheart family- the loss of his cabinet and top leaders to unknown circumstance. With the deaths of several of his heirs, including the infamous Zero Blackheart and the next-in-line Leo Blackheart. With the failed coordination as the juggernaut moves so clumsily to maintain itself without a proper head. With all of it together, the future of the Dominion's hold appears bleak.

Already foreign powers and smaller factions make their plays to take territory and assets from the Dominions, and the protection of peace upheld by the group has all but disappeared as they struggle to hold on. With rivals and far far smaller yet significantly vile powers vying for control, what will befall those caught in the crossfire? The movement of rivals like the Legion of the Stars and the United Dimension Federation, the return of powerful guilds like the Demonic Arms and the Unending Empire, the threats of long-since-silent adversaries to the common people within the Demon Worlds and outside... what the future holds is nothing but uncertainty.

With the power balance disrupted, those who live within the fragile system will have to navigate carefully to avoid their own destruction.
