(«^») Iris Exurrana
Paradox is both strange and dangerous. It's likened to a twisted mirror of your world. It's similar in many ways but at the same time is very, very different.
Paradox is made up of six continents. Sylphyr to the northwest. Sylphyr is mostly rainforest. It's a tropical rainforest in the northern half, and a temperate rainforest in the southern half. It also has a large swath of swamplands to the south east. This land used to house a grand kingdom, but it didn't survive into the seventh era. It's now home to a small queendom of pirates. To the southwest is Dreamyr. Dreamyr is a land best described as ‘bathed in shadow’. The atmosphere is thick, and is deep purple no matter where you go, and you can never see the sky. This continent is dominated by two trading empires, Shaelax in the east and Lylyria in the west. In the midsouth lies Nil Yn. It's cut into two by a man made strait. The entire continent forms a massive U shape, with an island in the middle. The eastern half of Nil Yn is mostly prismatic forest, with a massive savanna in the far south. On the west side the entire landscape is covered with cherry blossom forests. Three kingdoms lie here, Yn Dyr in the east, Yn Sil in the west, and Vaelik to the northeast. In the far southeast is Gyla. Mostly desert with some tropical rainforest in the north. It's home to the kingdom of Nyjula. To the north of Gyla is Alexandria. Dominated mostly by mountain ranges, and red forests, only one queendon makes its home here, which is also known as Alexandria. And finally, in the middle east lies Vyra. It's the only continent that resides within the circles of Neve and Eir, and is extremely cold but still habitable.

Paradox is tilted at 55° which switches the where the cold and hot areas are. On Paradox, the equator is where The Circles of Eir and Neve are, and is the coldest part of the world. The poles are the hottest, and contain The Tropics of Adara and Nuria. Paradox is also overall warmer, which means that the oceans at the equator don't freeze over.
Paradox has two moons, both of which are very large and habitable. Nova is the larger moon, and is almost completely made up of water. It's also completely frozen over, and only has one land mass. Pyre is slightly smaller, and is extremely hot. It's mostly just a massive, sandy desert with little water.
Paradox is about twice the radius of earth. Nova and Pyre are about the same size of earth.
On Paradox we measure time like this XE/XY/XM/XD stating the era, year, month, and day in that order. Paradox orbits very far away from our sun, so its year is 1092 days. Months are all 91 days long, with 13 seven day weeks. A day is 36 hours, and hours, minutes, and seconds are the same as yours. Our seasons run from 10M/1D to 1M/1D (The Ice Spell) then from 1M/1D to 4M/1D (The Flora Spell) then from 4M/1D to 7M/1D (The Fire Spell) 7M/1D to 10M/1D (The Earth Spell)

The Third Spire
It has been decades since the Wizardly Order rose and helped the Realm to banish the monstruos Elfey from its lands by building the Five Spires. The kingdom has prospered greatly in the time since, advancing both in the magical arts and the more mundane technology. The Wizards have grown too, gaining influence and spreading throught the Realm, Wizards' Towers dotting the landscape on many regions. But as the Realm grows and starts looking beyond its borders, the Wizards are faced with one insidious enemy inside its own borders. Master Garner, a wizard in the scarcely populated far West of the Realm, feels the situation getting out of hand, and a violent purge forces him out of his beloved Tower. The wizard takes his apprentices and allies in search of uncertain safety in the Third Spire. Some sources of inspiration for this story, for variable reasons: Riyria Chronicles, The Wandering Inn, Gentleman Bastard series. Note: First dedicated attempt at writing. I'm looking for feedback, and I will appreciate if you point out any mistakes. Updates: Tuesday, and every other Thursday, as life allows it.

Chaos Rising: A Dungeoncore Fantasy
“I’m innocent!” Chaos shouted at the seven black walls of her cell. She considered her words for a few moments before adding “Of this particular crime! Come on, idiots, let me out!” Chaos, the firstborn, goddess of fire and games, has committed her fair share of sins. Heresy. Rebellion. Theft. Assault. Insult. Abduction. Seduction. Warmongering. All the classics. Mostly for a good cause, occasionally by mistake and sometimes for the sheer fun of it. She was innocent, however, of the murder that landed her in prison for seven times seven lifetimes. But her sentence is over. She’s out of her cell and out for revenge. To win back her power she'll need mortal followers to use as pieces in the games the mortals play. But Chaos has been away a long time. She is betrayed, fragmented and forgotten, a shadow of her former self. Her only ally is Snotgut, a one-armed goblin who eats his own toenails and fears absolutely nothing - except soap. Together they must build a dungeon and raise an army so that Chaos can once again become the greatest being in the universe. All that stands in their way are every god and goddess Above, the Empire of Order Below, the titan kings, the heroes’ guild, the mages’ academy, and every other mortal and immortal institution which Chaos had offended, which is all of them. Empires will fall and heroes will rise as Chaos schemes her way back to her rightful position at the head of the pantheon of gods! Dungeoncore! Comedic fantasy! Epic fight scenes! Space ships Elves throwing fireballs! Welcome to the Universe of Above and Below where chaotic good(ish) characters sometimes save the day! Updates Wednesdays and Sundays!

A loose thread
The goddess picked him up. He tried to struggle free, but her grip only tightened. Eventually her thumb caught his head, pulling it backwards. He stared helplessly as she brought her free hand closer, revealing a small vial in her massive hand. She pressed it to his lips, and he felt the contents flow into him. He tried not to drink it, but his body would not listen. Despite his revulsion, his body ignored him by drinking deeply. "Drink and forget. I will give you everything you ever wanted. A loving family. A comfortable home. And then, " Her grip tightened, and forcing the air out his lungs. He coughed up the strange liquid and caused more to spill. “And then, you will pay for your defiance. On your twentieth birthday you will remember.” She pulled the vial away and turned him to look at her. “You will remember, just as everything you love is taken from you, right before your eyes…” Her voice trailed off and his world went dark. .... The above leads right into the story. The first chapter is a bit rough as the MC (a child at the time), hurts himself rather badly. I will try to include similar warnings on chapters as the story goes on, but I want to be up front that I may miss or forget things. Many of the tags are included so I can have flexibility writing the story. I am posting this largely to hold myself accountable to keep writing. Chapters will be short, but I am planning to post weekly. This is the first thing I have written (you've been warned). I am enjoying the story and I hope you will too. Please feel free to let me know what you think of the story as it progresses.
