The Lost Jungle of the Parrots
The Lost Jungle of the Parrots Long ago, hidden deep within the heart of the Amazon, there was a place untouched by man — a jungle so dense, so alive, and so vibrant that even the oldest maps didn’t mark it. The locals called it Selva Perdida — the Lost Jungle. Legends whispered of a mystical valley where parrots ruled the skies, intelligent and colorful, with voices that echoed the past and eyes that held ancient wisdom.

The Lantern Keeper
In the coastal village of Aerin’s Reach, perched on the cliffs above a restless sea, lived a woman named Elira. She was known far and wide as the most beautiful woman in the region—not because of her honey-brown hair or the way her eyes glimmered like tide-washed glass, but because there was something about her that seemed to shimmer from within. They called her “The Lantern Keeper,” and not just because she lit the old lighthouse that guided sailors safely home.

When the Crow Didn't Give Up
It was a hot summer afternoon in the middle of a long drought. The sun glared down from the sky like a giant ball of fire, and not a single cloud could be seen. Trees stood still with drooping leaves, the rivers had shrunk into trickles, and the animals in the forest were growing tired and thirsty.

Queen of the Hollow Crown. Content Warning.
Read the first story here: The Thief of Shadows I: The First Rebellion The dead moved differently now. Lirael saw it in the way the shades paused mid-wail when she passed, their hollow eyes tracking her with something sharper than fear. The obsidian floors, once cold enough to burn bare flesh, now warmed beneath her footsteps like stones left in afternoon sun. Even the air had changed—thick with the scent of overripe figs and the metallic tang of freshly unearthed grave soil.

The Hollow and the Hungry Ghost. Content Warning.
I. The Wrong Door Opened Mirelle's fingers trembled as she lit the thirteenth candle. The church basement reeked of mildew and old incense, the perfect place to cheat death. She'd come to speak to her sister—just once, just long enough to say the words she'd left unsaid the day the fever took her.
