Summary
What rests deep in the ocean? Mermaids? Monsters? Magic? All that and more.
Far below where any human can survive, there is a kingdom called Jiol. Kostas is a 14-year-old sorcerer who resides there with his mother and friends, but it is not their home. A home is filled with love, not fear and death. It is merely where they try to survive while the royal guards, the Patrollers, constantly raid the village. They kill anyone with tails, webbing, or fins—anyone who mutated for this underwater existence.
To protect innocent lives from the unending attacks, Kostas must get stronger even if this involves going behind his mother’s back. Training, sorcery, and seers are the villagers’ only hope against the Patrollers and a royal vizier who is as cruel as he is powerful. If Kostas cannot succeed as a protector of the village, Jiolans like him will be massacred to the point of extinction.

Summary
Zaunite. Traitor. Mother. Councilor. These are all terms to describe Councilor Alcina Dimitrescu. Despite her background, Alcina finds her way to power in the city she wishes to bring to its knees so that the people of Zaun realize they should be on theirs for her. Her former mentor, Silco, is working to disperse his Shimmer to the people of Piltover, but with the aid of Renata Glasc and her chemical weapons, Piltover is fighting back and winning… or so they think.
Alcina’s cunning runs deeper than her hatred for Piltover and she is determined to slowly bring the downfall it so rightly deserves at whatever expense necessary. What price will she pay to succeed and how far will she be willing to go to destroy the person who destroyed her family?
This war of Empires is only beginning, and the blood, sweat, and tears Alcina shed to get into a seat at the council will come back tenfold to see the destruction of it.This is an AU based on a Lady Dimitrescu cosplay I designed and created in 2022. Councilor Dimitrescu has a special place in my heart and I'm excited to tell her story. I hope you all enjoy it as much as you have loved the cosplay!

Summary
Cat collar.
The ringing of the little golden bell was audible no matter where you went. When she laughed, when she walked.
She’d worn it on a dare, after getting called a “feral cat”.
And it drove you crazy.
She’d noticed by this point you were avoiding her. She had to. You were too.. bothered, to make any effort to be subtle.
So, she made herself scarce, much to your relief, and disappointment.
She’d be wearing it 24 Hours.
Nothing too bad could happen in that time, right?

Summary
Annabeth chuckled softly, waving her hand in a go on motion. “Anyway. You wanted to know the stories of Perseus. What about them?”
“Oh, come on,” he rolled his eyes. “You can’t tell me it’s not a little weird how similar we are.”
unable to sleep on the night he heard the full prophecy, percy reminisces on the story of his namesake.
call him crazy, but the weird feeling of deja vu he got from hearing the prophecy kinda makes him think he isn't just named after the hero perseus.

Summary
A poem about 6 myths, 6 women, and 6 times Zeus ruined a life.
Note: They are not written in any specific order aside from when they came to mind since I didn't actually plan this poem out- But it still came out neatly. Also, this is mostly Zeus's perspective but Hera's perspective comes in during Semele's part. The poem is written in 3rd person.
