Seventeen-year-old Rapunzel has been locked up in a tower ever since the Plague arose in time with her birth. When Gothel, the only mother she's ever known, takes her demand for freedom and usefulness much too far, Rapunzel sends a desperate plea to the one person who's kept hope ringing inside of her. Or, the spirit, more like. When Jack Frost, one of the Guardians of Childhood, finally finds his way to the mysterious island of Corona, he convinces an indecisive Rapunzel to follow him into the outside world in order to both see her mother's lies for herself, and find the freedom she's always craved to have. But when things go awry, the two are forced to team up in order to take down a force that should never have returned. And Rapunzel might just be the key to stop it. ‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵ INLINE COMMENT IF YOU SEE ANY SPELLING MISTAKES, PLEASE AND THANK YOU! :) First place winner of The Flavored Awards!

You are the spymaster to the King of all Kings, and the power that hides in his shadow. You have taught him, protected him, and suffered seven years of pain at his hands; despite the scars he inflicted, you remained his shield in the dark. Warding off his enemies and stoically, irrivocably loyal to the man behind the throne. When his behavior toward you rapidly changes, you are left to rediscover the man you knew all those years ago and rekindle the tension you had never once acted upon while in battle. Even if he is no longer a man at all. (This is a reader insert in what I would like to call the badass royalty vein of fantasy. Also posted on AO3 ).

Almost a millenium ago, the dear world we live in was almost destroyed when the superhumans we call "zegens" created a creature too powerful for them to control. Their monstrosity - Feto - would have ended humanity as we know it if not for the intervention of the courageous heroes who risked their lives to seal it away. Many centuries later, in 2023, the new generation of the Zomer (the cult that nearly inadvertently caused the apocalypse) is back and they are now targeting Aaron, a teenage zegen orphan living in Brussels, Belgium. Little by little, with the help of his classmates - Mathéo, Sara and Laura - the boy unravels the secrets behind his conception and the four adolescents are all roped into an iniquitous plot that's much bigger than all of them. What truly happened to Aaron's parents for them to have abandoned him? Why is the Zomer so interested in him? Could any of this be connected to Feto?

❖ ''ZF 16 Ariomma to unknown vessel. Please identify yourself. Over.'' ❖ Farah and Kazem are twins working aboard the Ariomma, a trading airship that sails the edges of a flat world. Out here is a frontier far from civilization: a place known as the Tideless, where water lifts from the surface of the sea, and great creatures rise with it. Only some of them are known. This is not a sailing path known for its safety, but the crew of the Ariomma have rarely feared their work. That is, until they find the carcass of another ship hanging in the Tideless, decimated by an unknown enemy. Soon, their flight to safety becomes a fight for their lives, as the monster turns its attention on the Ariomma... and them. ❖❖❖ Written for #NONC2022, a community-run novella festival operating in parallel with ��������'s 2022 Open Novella Contest.
