Deserted Village Chest

ZARQA

Dive back in time, to the depths of the desert, and watch the old stories unfold before your eyes. A story of treasure hunting, betrayal, and destiny. When a gruesome future is all you see, how can you change it? When you're foretold to fail, how should you move on? Zarqa, the girl who saw beyond time, sought to find answers. -------------------------- Legend says that Zarqa had sharp eyes that could look far away in the distance. But what if that wasn’t the end of it, what if her eyes were seeing far beyond not only space, but time? What if Zarqa was blessed with a prophecy, one that could save her dying village from destruction? Just as they thought they had no way to survive, Zarqa learns of a way to protect her village from demolition. Naturally, no one believed her, for no one but the Almighty could see beyond the present. They forgot the Almighty offers knowledge to those whom he deems of worth. And Zarqa was one of them. Having to trudge an arduous path and go through a great adventure, Zarqa seeks to find the solution to all of their problems, a treasure said to have the power to change all. Pitted against magical traps and the mysteries of the deserts, she finds unexpected company in Ali Baba, the poor kid with the sticky fingers, and his crow Morjana... -------------------------- This is my first original long story here and is also a WSA 2024 Entry.

The Village Ascends

In a world torn by war and ruled by ruthless empires, Calen is just another nameless soul in a forgotten village—no wealth, no influence, and no one to rely on. Surviving day by day, he knows his fate is as insignificant as the dust beneath his feet. That is, until a mysterious stranger enters the village, triggering a chain of events that awakens something deep within Calen. With no training and no purpose, Calen’s life takes a dramatic turn when he discovers a latent talent for magic and combat, a power that seems to have always been a part of him. As whispers of his abilities spread, others seeking refuge from the chaos of war are drawn to him: a band of skilled warriors, a healer with a dark past, and a young mage with untested magic. Together, they forge a fragile alliance, each of them scarred by the brutality of the world around them. As Calen slowly grows in strength and wisdom, he must learn to lead a ragtag group of survivors and defend against the encroaching forces of an empire bent on domination. But the true battle lies not just in the war against outside enemies, but in overcoming the darkness within, as Calen struggles to understand the power he now wields—and whether it will corrupt or save him. The Village Ascends is a tale of survival, redemption, and the rise of an unlikely hero. In a world where trust is a rare commodity, can one broken man gather the strength to lead, and spark a rebellion that will change everything?
