Aang Desert

When amateur archaeologist Lila unearths a cursed amulet in the desert, she expects treasure—not waking up trapped in the body of Queen Aurora, the legendary Phoenix Queen whose downfall doomed an entire kingdom. Now, with a fiery phoenix spirit screaming prophecies in her ear and warring factions expecting her to fix centuries of ruin, Lila faces an impossible choice: embrace her new identity to restore the seven flames and unite the fractured realms, or fight to return to her old life—even if it means destroying the kingdoms forever. But the amulet’s power is growing, Aurora’s memories are bleeding into hers, and the line between hero and villain is crumbling. With dragon lords scheming for war, shadowy enemies hunting her, and a brooding royal guard who’s convinced she’s an imposter, Lila must outwit them all before the amulet consumes her completely—or the real Aurora takes back control. The crown is heavy, the flames demand sacrifice, and time is running out… will she rise as the Phoenix Queen, or burn the world down to escape?

One year after the Hundred Year War, peace is fragile. Fire Lord Zuko struggles to rebuild his nation. The Earth Kingdom is in disarray. And Avatar Aang is burdened with the responsibility of uniting a broken world. But something darker than war is awakening. In the ruins of a forgotten temple deep in the Spirit World, a sealed power begins to stir—a power older than the Avatar cycle itself. Whispers speak of a fifth element, one that was hidden by the ancient Avatars and forbidden by the spirits: Shadowbending. When villages start disappearing overnight and dark voids swallow both benders and spirits alike, Team Avatar is called to investigate. Reunited once more, Aang, Katara, Toph, Zuko, and Sokka set off on a new journey that will take them beyond the known world—into the deepest corners of forgotten history and the darkest parts of themselves. As Aang confronts visions of past Avatars who kept secrets even from him, and Zuko uncovers hidden truths about his family’s ties to this shadowy power, the group must face their most dangerous challenge yet—not a tyrant, not a war—but an element that feeds on fear, anger, and grief. And the only way to stop it… may be to bend it.

Then never mind, I won't go." "They want to tax me but won't let me farm? Wipe them out!"

From the Shelves of Aeralith We have kept many stories. Some speak of light. Others, of silence. This one came in ash. It does not begin with a kingdom, a war, or a prophecy. It begins with absence—with a girl no longer allowed to belong. Rasha was born with barely a flicker. Branded lowborn and cast aside, she was never meant to shape her tribe’s future. Until the flame chose her. Bound to an ancient spirit her people have long forgotten, Rasha carries a truth they no longer wish to hear: Fire was never meant to conquer—but to connect, to heal, to guide. Banished for speaking it, she walks the desert with nothing but a flicker of hope, a silent boy beside her, and the fire in her chest. She doesn’t seek glory. Only memory. Meaning. What was lost. She is not a weapon. She is not a savior. She is the Eternal Flame. While her path winds through exile and ember, others stir—in shadow, in snow, in sacred ruins. They do not begin together. They do not yet know each other. But their stories move toward the same fracture. This is the first of her volumes. One breath in the great remembering. And Aeralith never forgets.
