《Interactive Evolution》The Right Medicine for the Job
Advertisement
Around you the voices sing their myriad of sorrows, joys, pain, loves, and other emotions. The Seaweed Plains voices have stopped calling, giving off an aura most related to death. The trench was sorrowful, the sad songs of the deceased that slumber there. The deep sea gives off a scent of danger, you eliminate those three choices from your mind.
You were torn between the Coral Garden, Near Surface and the Mountains behind you. Finally you follow to voices in the mountains, As you go you found a group of cells just like you, camouflaged individuals with tubes for propelling and mouths.
You gave a cry of joy for finding companions but the majority goes to shush you. You are confused. Why would they need you to be quiet?
The answer soon appears before you.
A creature the size of a fist, on four stilt-like legs that resembles that of a spider. Connected to these legs, a simple egg. The egg was oval in shape, the shell rough and grey, like the stones on the mountain. It slowly walked forward, and when it reached the area where you had shouted out, the egg opened.
Inside was a sac, and a yellowish liquid was fuming from it. At this point the others have started to run. You follow them in fear of the new creature and the creature's shell started to cut the rocks apart, taking the pebbles, stones and sand into the sac, where it dissolved quickly.
A few unlucky ones were caught in the stones and fell into the sac, their dying screams as they were dissolved alive could still be heard as you ran.
You were unlucky enough to run into some of the yellowish liquid and you felt your body being burned alive, one of your tubes split apart, releasing the water you had stored sent you flying sideways.

You succumb to the pain, as you land on the side of the mountain, you noticed a few objects laying near you, you only had enough energy to crawl to only one as you would need the rest to digest the object in question.
There were four objects near you.
One was a type of weed, it was a glimmering purple and bubbles were formed in the leaves. Next was a type of amoeba, it was a sparkling green and moving sluggishly. Another object was a corpse of one of your comrades, the acid had destroy it's body making it hopeless to save him. The last was a black stone, it was spherical and gave an odd glint.
Your conscious is slowly fading yet you had to force yourself to grab something. Who knows what each will do or if you will live long enough to see any of the others.
You look at each object before you. Which medicine is the right medicine for the job?

City of Mages: Mage War Chronicles Book One
This book is COMPLETELY FINISHED as of 3/10/22, with a sequel currently serializing HERE. Born a fire mage, destined for something greater. For hundreds of years, Sombria has lived in peace thanks to the delicate balance the Council fosters between those with magic and those without. But unrest is brewing under the surface of Sombria, and the Council's tenuous hold may be on the verge of collapsing. All Alara ever wanted was to become a soldier, fighting to protect Sombria from the bruya rebels that threaten its borders with their chaotic magic and lawlessness. In order to succeed, she must first conquer her worst fear--her own innate magical abilities. Quenti, raised to hate the oppressive thumb of the Council, has only ever wanted a life of peace away from those who wish to control her. When her abilities are revealed, she finds herself at the center of a world she grew up despising, where magic is suppressed under the illusion of control. And her only means of escape may lie in trusting those she grew up doubting most. When Alara is given one final chance to prove she's worthy of being called a Mage of Sombria, the key to her success may lie within the untrusting Quenti. And Quenti doesn't plan on making things easy. Though as their two lives come crashing together, trusting each other may be the only choice they have to survive what's coming. -- COMMENT AND FOLLOW! 📕 This story is completely written, but these postings on Royal Road double as a beta run, so please feel free to point out typos or inconsistencies. 📖 Content Guidelines: Mild language, PG-13-level violence

The Stone of Predestination
In a world very similar to our own, the Energy is the driving force of many big and small miracles, and the people who control it are revered, loved and hated by the ones born un-gifted. Karil is an orphan and would give anything, even his own life, to become one of the masters of the Energy. At the day of the final exam, he is reviled the horrible truth – he does not have the gift. But is that really so? Karil plunges in a turbulent adventure trough woods, deserts, and sometimes even through his own mind, looking for the answer to the question who, or rather what he is. But nothing is what it seems – friends are enemies, enemies are friends, his parents are not exactly his parents, and the border between good and evil disappears. And over all this looms the shadow of The Stone of Predestination – the greatest weapon ever created. There is no time to lose! The Stone must not fall into the Master’s hands, or something really, really bad would happen. On Karil’s fragile shoulders now falls the burden to prevent the end of the world… or to fulfil the Oracle’s prophecy and destroy it with his own hands.
