    Summary

    In ancient Greece, Diana is on a mission of vengeance to fulfil a bloodoath she swore to the gods themselves, winning the blessings of her patron goddesses with each victory, and slowly becoming the godlike champion who will one day be known as 'Wonder Woman'. Caught in the midst of an Olympian power struggle, Diana's vengeful mission is interrupted by the surprise intervention of Poseidon just as she is about to execute the next betrayer on her list, and she is instead set a new challenge that will test her strength in ways she has never been tested before.

    With a motley crew of pirates, a hopelessly idealistic poet, and the cowardly war criminal she came to slay, Diana must set sail to confront creatures of ancient myth to end their reign of terror -but can her spirit withstand the journey, or is she finally ready to lay her burden down?

    This story is a contribution to an even larger over-arching saga, with quite a lot of backstory that this piece can only hint at. It is mostly drama and action, but there is some sexual heroine peril in places - particularly towards the end - which are reasonably explicit.

    Unfortunately, Galinda may be too much for Elphaba to handle when her seemingly picture perfect world begins to unravel one dangerous thread at a time.

    Summary

    Shameless self-indulgence

    A solace in which to dream, a well earned rest from an arduous journey. That's all Tav wants.

    “I dreamt… many things.” Her voice grew hoarser. “The seasons keep turning, and the long summer draws near…”

    “Then, can you tell me?” Rhaella pressed. “What will become of me?”

    The woodswitch raised her head, and her eyes were now clear but full of pity.

    “Knowing will do you no good, princess.”

    Summary

    For nearly two years, Taka Igren has been living with a clinging dread, one that echoes through every undertaking, whispering that he’s not enough, rooting itself in his dreams to turn them into nightmares. After his sentencing and time on the drain engine, the drain sickness has finally caught up with him, striking in moments he least expects, leaving him raw and aching.

    But now, Taka has a chance at real freedom. His employer, Ambassador Nilinya Afaron has given Taka and his closest friend Orem Askon an offer: travel to her home country of Tsulun for an experimental healing of his energy flow, and possibly rid Taka of his pain once and for all. He has no idea if it will work, but he has nothing to lose.

    So, together, Taka and Orem pack up and head west over the White Shards in the hopes that this healing might actually work. And if it does, what does that mean for the drain engines in the end?

    Summary

    Count Theodore d'Alienne is a mysterious aristocrat who hides his elfin origins and tragic past behind a noble title. He enters the service of the court of Louis XV, where he quickly becomes a witness to and participant in many intrigues. His journey takes him to Versailles, Vienna, London, and even America, where he runs errands for kings and forges bonds with the bourgeoisie.

    Events unfold against the backdrop of the Age of Enlightenment, the Seven Years' War, the American War of Independence, and the French Revolution, which gradually approaches the threshold of Versailles.

    Summary

    Upstairs, Louis is sitting in the living room with an impressive assortment of luggage ready to go. He rises when Rashid and Sam approach from the elevator, raising his eyebrows expectantly, holding out what Rashid recognizes as the memory stick he’d given to Daniel.

    “This was the only thing left sitting in Daniel’s room,” Louis says before Rashid can speak. “Nothing else is there. Care to explain?”

    “We couldn’t find either of ’em in the city,” Sam replies. “Let me guess—you discovered that maître packed up without a trace, too?”

    “That’s right,” Louis says, a cool challenge, tossing the memory stick onto the coffee table. “Were you ever going to clue me in?”

    “We had hoped that Daniel would do the job for us,” Rashid admits ruefully. “And he did, at least in part, regarding San Francisco.”

    “You just didn’t count on the part where he’d relapse,” Louis counters scornfully. “You should have. It’s what addicts do, Rashid.”

    Summary

    When Pansy Parkinson is issued a credible death threat, the Ministry insists she accept Auror protection. Unfortunately, that protection comes in the form of Neville Longbottom - stoic, infuriating, and entirely immune to her usual tricks.

    Pansy has no intention of letting a Ministry babysitter interfere with her life. She's got a reputation to salvage, a husband to acquire, and a past that simply refuses to stay buried.

    But as the summer unfolds Pansy begins to suspect that the real threat might not be who’s trying to kill her, but what she’s starting to feel for the man sent to keep her alive.

    Having fled Thalmor captivity, Yarun races for all she's worth northward, to a land she's never belonged to, in hopes of finding a way out. In amidst a snake pit of civil war, political maneuvering, and legends coming alive, who would've thought that the one person she can learn to trust is a creature of the night?

    Summary

    2/7/24
    After a brief hiatus of three years
    Act II returns. I have about 120 chapters to publish. Around 2 million words.

    4/4/25;
    Chapter 113 is out! Happy five year anniversary of this fic!
    The Fire Navy and the White Lotus close in on the secret weapon.

    10/13/25:
    Act I rewrite: 7/100 done.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    The Hundred Year War is over. The Earth Kingdom/Empire has emerged victorious. The Fire Nation's crippled. The Water Tribes are in disunity. And the Air Nomads are made of one man.

    Meet the victors! The Avatar, a well-meaning pacifist who has no idea how world politics or intrigue work. The Fire Lord, stressed between being his father's son and being the Avatar's ally. And the most important one, because she said so herself and this book is telling us the truth, Toph, the Earth Empress.

    Follow the Empress as she travels the Empire, trying to reform it (with earth pillars), fight bandits (with earth pillars) and help allies (with earth pillars).

    The 'Age of Peace' is going to be far from peaceful.

    Just remember, shout TEN THOUSAND YEARS! and your problems vanish.
