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!

The Way of the Wandering Blade

In Crestwood, a small American town, 17-year-old Alex Chen is just an ordinary high school student struggling to find his place in a world that feels too small for his dreams of adventure and heroism. One fateful afternoon, while exploring an old antique shop, he discovers a mysterious jade pendant that transports him to the vibrant yet perilous Kingdom of Huanshan, a realm steeped in martial arts and ancient traditions. In this new world, Alex meets Lianhua, a fierce and skilled swordswoman who becomes both his mentor and companion. Initially at odds, their relationship blossoms as they train together, and Alex begins to discover his hidden potential. However, their peaceful existence is shattered when a ruthless warlord named Zhang threatens to plunge the kingdom into chaos. Zhang seeks the same jade pendant that brought Alex to this realm, believing it holds the key to ultimate power. Joined by a band of unlikely allies—a crafty thief named Wei, a stoic healer named Mei, and a nobleman seeking redemption—Alex embarks on a quest to gather ancient artifacts needed to defeat Zhang. Throughout their journey, the group faces mythical beasts, treacherous landscapes, and the harsh realities of betrayal. As the stakes rise, Alex grapples with the legacy of his ancestors, discovering that he is the descendant of a legendary warrior with the ability to harness powerful inner energy, or "Qi." As the final showdown looms, Alex must confront not only the warlord but also his own fears and insecurities. The bonds he forms with his friends are tested, and a sacrifice leads him to realize the true meaning of heroism. In an epic battle for the fate of Huanshan, Alex must unite the martial arts sects and rally his allies to stand against the encroaching darkness. In a tale of self-discovery, loyalty, and the fight against evil, "The Way of the Wandering Blade" invites readers to journey with Alex as he learns to embrace his identity, harness his strength, and forge his destiny in a world filled with wonder and danger. Ultimately, this coming-of-age adventure intertwines modern sensibilities with rich traditional elements of wuxia, as Alex finds his place not only in the Kingdom of Huanshan but also within himself.

The Way of The Dao

A mysterious young man falls into a small unknown world after surviving the terrifying void, barely recovering. However, the heavens punished him with a mysterious seal, sealing his powerful and terrifying strength and even restricting his body strength, turning him into a weak mortal, a cripple in the end. Feeling somewhat desperate and uneasy, he will begin to explore this small but interesting and unknown world, realizing that not everything is what it seems and that much knowledge he had ignored in the past was more important than it seemed. However, his heart that had been sealed and indifferent to almost everyone for his entire life, will gradually begin to open up when he meets people who will unexpectedly break the barrier in his heart easily but mysteriously, creating strong bonds that he never thought he would have had after the tragedy. Even memories from his childhood that had been forgotten or sealed away seemingly began to slowly emerge after a long time, realizing that his apparent origin was not simple either. With his power sealed, but with his knowledge and experience of thousands of years will gradually push him to the peak once again, even discovering unparalleled secrets and knowledge to step into the heavens and succeed in becoming an existence above the universe! ... It is my first novel that I started a long time ago and that I write with some slowness but always trying to give the best of me. I love very much these themes of cultivation and fights, romance and soft slices of life, so I decided to create my own novel that maybe could be enjoyable and charming for some or boring and disappointing for many, but it doesn't matter. In the beginning you will find a lot of clichés and tropes similar to almost every novel, even in the first 200-300 chapters, because I didn't know how to give an original and unique start. But I'm always aware of your comments, criticisms and complaints, which help me to broaden my horizons and perspectives and give a better writing and story to the novel. My writing and consistency at the beginning can be ugly with many mistakes, but as the story progresses I have learned from my mistakes and corrected a lot, even changing the way of narration a little as the story progresses and I write gradually. PS: Don't get carried away by the names of the chapter titles, some will seem to say the MC's cultivation or that he will start planning or have objectives against others, which is completely wrong. Sometimes I can't think of a suitable title and just write the simplest one, hehe. * Riixhiie * ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ * The cover image does not belong to me, so if the original owner has problems he can inform me and I will gladly remove it *
