Summary
"Claiming the land, claiming its pain, claiming its death..."
The Stolen Lands is a wilderness of rugged beauty, infested by bandits, monsters and other dangers, wedged between countries that know better than to try and claim it. One day, however, a neighbouring ruler starts to recruit adventurers, intending to break the rule of bandits on the Stolen Lands and organise it into a puppet state.
Guelder, an elven druid carrying the curse of lycanthropy, is one of the many who heed the call, and the one who ultimately prevails. It will be her task to bring law and order to the Stolen Lands, walking a thin line between building civilisation and preserving nature. As she gradually discovers the secrets of the land, she realises she has wandered to the playground of mysterious powers that use her as a pawn in their game, like they did so many others before her – and those powers do not want her to succeed.
Will she be able to break the cycle and build a kingdom that will survive her? -

Summary
Опинившись у темному лісі, Сонік усвідомлює, що він забув, як саме сюди потрапив. Він тут для того, щоб урятувати світ, а тому мусить зробити неможливе — убити безсмертного. Принаймні так таємничий голос йому підказує. Хто б міг подумати, що в історії з кінцем світу вкотре замішаний заклятий суперник Соніка, їжак Шедов.
Коли їх обох зачиняють у підвалі старої хатини, перед ними постає суворий вибір. Хтось із них обов'язково має померти. Без виключень. Лише на мить Сонік втрачає пильність, і Шедов уже йому до горла приставляє ніж. Тоді в його голові виникає купа запитань. А чи справді це той Шедов, якого він знає? Хто і навіщо їх тут тримає? Кому слід вірити? І чи його власне тіло досі йому належить?
Зрозуміло тільки одне: їжаки повинні розірвати цей порочний ланцюг із крові та смертей і знайти вихід за всяку ціну.

Akechi sat in a quiet cafe across from a dark haired, determined boy. The warmth of LeBlanc eased into him, trying to goad him into taking down the protective walls he'd built around himself. He wouldn't, though.
Not while those silver eyes watched him like they wanted to open him up, expecting him to dump his life story onto the table between them.
In that cafe, Akechi could only know one thing for certain: There was no point letting Akira worm his way under his skin.The path that he was walking would end up with one of them dead.
--
The story of Persona 5 Royal, but told from Akechi’s perspective.

Summary
But when enough red pooled, when all of the flesh and guts congealed, and the days passed into weeks and months and lifetimes, the red turned to black. Swirling, descending, black. The space where red turned to black, where life truly ended, left no room for optimism, for hunger or satisfaction - only acceptance, only an all-consuming rot, that was where the fester truly began.
• ✤ •
Or: This is a dive into my lovely Dark Urge, Anuon the Black, and his complicated relationship with Astarion, Gale, Bhaal, and nature. Because things can't be simple.

Summary
They met, once, long ago. They never exchanged names, never saw each other again; they were only the Beauxbatons girl and the Durmstrang boy who shared three dances at the Yule Ball.
Now, five years later, Aleksandar Petrov is twenty-three, a Bulgarian Pureblood, graduate of Durmstrang Institute. Some part of him always expected his father to arrange a marriage for him; theirs was a family obsessed with purity and lineage and strong magic, set in the old ways that even now were falling. And so his bride-to-be made the journey to the Petrov estate high in the mountains. She was beautiful, quiet, submissive— and oddly familiar, as well. Aleks couldn't quite place where he'd seen her before...but he was determined to unravel the mysteries woven in a dark web around the girl who seemed so harmless, so silent, so subdued.

Summary
Kesten Garess was once a noble son of Brevoy — now he is a man without a house. In the Stolen Lands, he clings to duty as Warden and reluctant protector of a baroness whose fire is as dangerous as it is mesmerizing.
Haunted by her fragile ties to her noble family, she hides secrets beneath silk gloves and prayers whispered to the flames. She is an oracle of fire, a young scion of House Orlovsky trying to build a kingdom from nothing but ashes and uncertain alliances.
Yet the same fire that promises rebirth could devour them both. Kesten must decide whether to temper her flames with steel or surrender to a blaze that might consume the last pieces of himself he still calls his own.
At the same time, a relationship (slowly) develops between Teras, an oracle servant of Pharasma whose memories are vague, and Tristian.
Just as the new kingdom searches for its identity, so do the characters, amid curses, monsters, and unhealthy coping mechanisms.

AKA: Eliot decides not to stop hurting. It's almost the same as how he once "decided not to care. I didn’t care who I hurt. Who paid me."
