Arendon: The Hidden

abstract The fae created "The Veil" with a wizard's help to hide from the manbloods that were hunting them into extinction eons ago. A recent discovery leads Derya to believe that Merlath, the Sorcerer who created the veil, deceived the elves, fairies, and druids who sacrificed their lives and magic to create the magical barrier. It was never meant to be permanent and poses a threat to both Arendon and the human realm, but with Merlath missing, she needs to find the human Oracle, who might be a myth. To do this, she needs to brave the human realm without betraying herself, and she can tell no one of her suspicions because Arendon, like Rohendor (The human realm), is a melting pot at the edge of war. Not having much time before someone discovers her missing, she enters the human world to find the Oracle might be dead, but as she prepares to face her punishment for breaking the law by even crossing the veil, she finds herself saving a halfling elf. This fateful decision rips her entire world asunder when the halfling turns out to be more than an elf and inadvertently connects their fates. This princess lives in the human world under her brother's protection, and with their fates now intertwined, Derya is doomed to spend the rest of her life in Rohendor with a choice: marry the prince and be his wife or be one of his servants. The bond doesn't physically allow her to leave Bailey's side, but by accepting her fate, she can no longer pursue the truth of Merlath's deceit, or can she persuade Bailey, Andor, and Argana that the fate of both their worlds hangs in the balance? Even if she can, can they do anything about it with Merlath missing? Can she trust them, and will she? Find out what fate has in store for our young werewolf princess now that she's no longer even able to shift into her wolf.

Hard Choices

For the second time since she arrived, there were armed townspeople at the gate ready to burn the castle to the ground, but unlike the last time, Andor wasn't willing to hear them out.

"Allow them to enter, close the gate behind them and take up a position against them," Andor ordered the commander, and after a moment of hesitation, the man did as his master requested.

The townspeople stormed inside with lit torches, rakes, swords, sticks, and other weapons in hand and a look in their eyes that sent chills up her spine.

"We demand that you release the witch Bailey to us, or we will burn this castle to the ground with all in it!" A man shouted, and from his garb, he was the new mayor.

Did these people not learn from their previous experiences, although none of those who stood against Andor the last time seemed to be present?
