The Echo of War and Willow

TLW
In the shadowed realm of Haldrith, where ancient trees bind countless worlds in their sprawling branches, the legendary Realm Tree Virelundra withers—its life blood tainted by creeping corruption from beyond the veil. The gods have long been silent, and only whispers remain of the forgotten deity Asvaldir, the Hollow Flame, whose name inspires fear and silence among the few who remember. Rowen Gravenmar, scion of a feared warlike noble house, has spent years fleeing the violent legacy that haunts his bloodline. Now a reluctant hunter in the wild borderlands, he survives by skill and instinct, seeking only to escape the shadow of his name. But when mysterious forces cross the veil and the enigmatic Wardens appear—tasked by the crown to guard the realm against threats from other worlds—Rowen’s fate shifts irrevocably. Drawn into a clandestine world of secret wars and fading magic, Rowen discovers that his true burden is far greater than escaping his past. Within his soul stirs the seed of Ellsyndrith, a new Realm Tree—one that may hold the only hope for preserving existence itself. Yet truths are not what they seem: Asvaldir’s return threatens to reduce the dying Virelundra to ash, and both hunter and god misinterpret each other’s desires in a dance of deception and fate. As realms decay and alliances fracture, Rowen must confront the echoes of war in his blood and the fragile promise of renewal before all that is sacred is consumed by flame.

The Leper King's Healer

After a tragic accident that sent her back 845 years in time to the year 1177, in the Middle Ages, during the reign of Baldwin IV of Jerusalem, Kate Mitchell, a wealthy business tycoon in the pharmaceutical industry, a gifted ex-military, a pharmacologist and botanist, and a brilliant archer from 2022, wakes up as Lady Philippa, a pretty, innocent, frail, and proper young lady of House Antioch, with whom she shares nothing in common. She realised she had died on that day, and her soul travels back in time and takes over the body of Philippa, a helpless lady who would face tragedy, betrayal, and scandal before dying young and heartbroken. She chose to live as Philippa because she had a second chance at life and only one goal in mind: to live and survive at any cost. To succeed, she must thrive and learn to live in the Medieval era, where nothing is common for her, and, above all, she must avoid an arranged marriage, which will doom Phillipa to death after a terrible heartbreak. Lady Philippa, unfortunately, is about to be engaged to an unknown man, and she must devise a plan to prevent this from happening. Kate's background as an ex-military officer, pharmacologist, and botanist, as well as her limited knowledge of history, will be invaluable in surviving the historical mediaeval times when modern technology was out of reach. However, she requires the assistance of the reigning king, Baldwin IV, who is suffering from leprosy at the time. She'll have to take control of the situation. It is up to Kate's bravery and intelligence to find a way to persuade Baldwin IV to help her, and she has few options other than joining his royal court. Will the king accept her, or will she perish as the body's original owner? Will she be able to change her destiny? Alternatively, will she be able to find the love and family she seeks?
