《A Tale from Entherah: The White Owl》Prologue
Advertisement
The realm of Entherah
Born out of the detached heart of Enthah
Being of great power and affection
She delivered the earth, the Elementals
She created the relics, the Fae
She bore the desire, Humankind
She divided this land into eight
One phase to each nation
One part of her to all creations
But take away her life. Steal the souls of her children. Empty out that wasted flesh. And what is left of her is this power. The potential to will reality. The power to reconstruct destiny, and that is what this man of lust had aimed to do.
It was forbidden to their nature the immortal breath, said to be cursed to collect the dead from those who rest. But this mage of ancient and flames was not afraid. He saw the ability of humankind to create their fate. He heard the cries of the lost souls in Esteria and it festered in his head that did not allow rest. So he made his choice. Carrying in his heart was the tarmorein, studied and evoked, it was his liberty.
As he traversed his home of the Fae life, Krugan, his blood and eth surge through him. Casting the words in which will finally free the creatures of Entherah, he entered the room of its Acolyte, the region’s prince, his kin.
“Brother, what’s the matter?”
In his eyes, he saw the youngling, so innocent and pure. Hair and dress as bright as the Celestials, the Acolyte was touched by the power of the goddess of whom he now loathes. And although he had such hatred for the powerful being, his heart ached to see the little boy go. At the cusps of finishing his spell, the child asked again.
“Brother, why are you crying?”
Suddenly, dark matter burst forth from his outreached hand. Like smoked shadows it encircled the boy, passing him through and through, gently taking away his life.
“Brother, what is this? I’m scared.”
Finishing his soft chant, the mage held his brother in his last breathes, finally responding to his silent cries of death, “Your sacrifice will not be in vain brother, for you will be free.”
And thus begins the tale from which Entherah will tell.

Myscreth
At its core, magic is just the ability to change the laws of nature. Mason Grant's life was going just as he'd always planned. Then a knock at the door changed everything. Normally, he would have considered Professor Anklin's tale of a civilization destroyed because it had learned how to manipulate the laws of nature crazy. Of course, that was before he saw his couch resting on the ceiling. Travelling to Myscreth with the Professor, Mason discovers a world of contradictions. On a ruined world, the Myscrethian people live much like the early American settlers, yet thanks to the ability to manipulate the laws of nature there’s unlimited electricity and powered flight. As Mason begins learning to control abilities he never dreamed possible, he discovers that not all is as it seems. Even as the Myscrethian people try to rebuild their world, there are those who seek to once again unleash the power which led to its destruction. And this time it's not only Myscreth's fate that hangs in the balance, but Earth's as well. Author's Note: This novel is now complete.
8 66Heroes Die First
It was after World War Two ended; rumors spread of people wielding amazing powers or mutating into horrifying monsters. Seventy years later, heroes and villains dominate the news and battle in the streets, discrimination drives mutants into the criminal lifestyle, and the governments of the world are struggling to handle the rapidly shifting paradigm. Maxmillian Grants, like any sixteen year old boy, wants to be a hero and he has a secret: he has the power to do it! Except, when he actually looks into the risks and the rewards he discovers that being a hero is not really worth it. Being a villain, on the other hand, certainly pays well. If you don't mind risking being sent to prison and being hunted by heroes and other villains. Max, not being an idiot, does mind both of those things. Instead of being a hero or being a villain, Max decides to take the third option, to be a vigilante! His plan? To hit the criminals in the gut and run off with their money, making the world a bit brighter at the same time by taking down the bad guys. But how long can he actually manage alone? Can he really navigate through the dangerous world of supers and capes without declaring for either heroes or villains? Or will he be sucked into the web of plots and drama that is the life of those with superpowers? (Cover photo by Sebastiaan Stam, downloaded from Unsplash)
