Never Let an Elf Steal Your Heart

[Mature Content Warning] Markos is a new templar in the Order of the Holy Sword. He must venture through the wilds of Drassin to slay demons, and stop elves from corrupting the world with magic. When he uncovers a conspiracy that runs deep through the very faith of Drassin, he must survive it or die trying. In this world where love between humans and magic users are forbidden, what will he do if he falls in love with the very people he's supposed to be fighting? ----- The Church of the Holy Sword denounces elves as the destroyers of the world. All magic use is forbidden. With its Templars, the Holy Sword has driven elves into the dark wild places. Elves wield the raw essence of magic that gives birth to demons. They warn to never let an elf meet your eye or else you will be cursed as a heartless beast until the end of your days. All his life, Markos Louvel dreamed of becoming one of the elite templars of the Order of the Holy Sword, sworn to protect all of Dressin from the threat of demons, elves, and vile magic users. One day in preparation for his proving trials, he stumbled across an elf bathing in a pool while hunting for a rare white deer. Once he encounters her, he finds himself rushed into his templar trials as his own magical ability awakens.

Elven Way

Logline An unwilling pilgrim must guide three young elves across the realms in a timeless rite of passage, while they race to uncover the dark secrets of his Elven Way before their journey ends. Synopsis By Elven law, only when all men forget his transgressions shall an elf be granted parole. No living man remembers Latham’s transgression, and he must now walk the Elven Way as a pilgrim—an unwilling mentor bound by the arcane to reveal forgotten arts and lost magic to his cohorts—the least of his concerns. But after centuries imprisoned, the last thing he—or any pilgrim—wants is a show of secrets to snot-nosed gits. Here is a tale of some of Elven history’s most infamous—eccentrics and hoodlums—turned unwilling mentors to cohorts as eager as they are gullible. Aalto Stian, Son of Havelock of Nero—a pirate prince who drinks from his fishbowl, sailing waves that rage higher than most mountains stand. With nothing but flotsam for a foothold and the light of Fos as his compass, he grins right at the eye of the storm. Where will it lead him next? Hjordis Waldemar, Daughter of Hilde of Potiri—a noble’s eyes sting as she glares at her calloused hands, abashed. Will one who must swing her blade a thousand times for a reasonably decent strike ever reach the heights of the sword saints of yore? Wray Kaspar, Son of Ulf of Anemos—a hermit who calls the wind to play, only for her to take everything from him. In her wake, his path to reckoning lays bare—will he walk it? What to expect: Epic Progression Fantasy (Is that a real genre?) inspired by some of my favourite stories: imagine a whimsical blend of Avatar: The Last Airbender's bending/spirituality, with A Song of Ice and Fire's political intrigue (as best I can write), and Shadow Slave's insidious Eldritch horrors. A character drama first and foremost; I enjoy exploring what makes my characters tick—(but don’t expect a meandering, plotless story). Mature themes: body horror, intimate relationships (not just sex, but the emotional baggage—honestly, I think that’s the core of any relationship), trauma—whatever is true to my characters. I write what I’m creatively driven to express, but always with a view to move the audience, and never for indulgence. A writer terribly happy you’re here!
