Joyy_lynn
In a world where magic is the highest virtue, two races exist in secret harmony, separated by dimensions but bound by fate. The AMARONS, born with elemental powers, inhabit a mystical parallel realm hidden from the eyes of ordinary humans. The GOLDILOCKS, unaware of this otherworld, live mundane lives, untouched by magic or so they believe. A young lawyer, grounded in logic and law, takes on what seems to be a straightforward murder case. Her client swears innocence, yet the CCTV footage is damning: it captures him leaving the crime scene just moments after the killing. The evidence is airtight. The case feels unwinnable. But there’s one problem. In the world of the AMARONS, most GOLDILOCKS have magical doppelgängers, a mirror version of themselves with unknown motives and abilities. Now, caught in a web of magic, deception, and hidden worlds, the lawyer must uncover a truth no one is prepared to believe: that her client may be innocent… and that the real killer might not be of this world while maintaining the balance between the two worlds. Legal Thriller Meets Fantasy "She set out to defend a man but uncovered a war between worlds." P.S :This ain't a regular fantasy novel.

THE CROWN OF WATERS

Noel Vallis, a young boy born into the noble Vallis family, has always lived in the shadow of expectations. As the heir to a powerful estate, his life seems destined to follow a strict path, but Noel has always felt out of place. Raised in a world of discipline and secrets, he yearns for something more—something that doesn’t conform to the rigid rules of his family. When Noel discovers his mysterious connection to the ancient koi pond on his family’s estate, he unwittingly awakens a dormant power tied to his bloodline. Magic surges within him, but it’s a power that cannot be controlled. A dark crystal refuses to react, and Noel is left questioning his place in the Vallis legacy. His only confidant, Ethen—his childhood friend and the son of his nanny—reveals that Noel is not just any heir, but the true heir to an ancient, magical legacy tied to the very land itself. The Vallis family’s secrets have been hidden for centuries, lost during the Empire Unification War. No heir has appeared in over 300 years, and Duke Vallis, Noel’s father, remains unaware of the true history that binds their family to an ancient seal—the Throne of Waters. This seal lies within the koi pond, a place that has always comforted Noel, but now holds a deeper meaning. It is a key to immense, untapped power, and only Noel, as the true heir, can unlock it. With the help of Ethen, Noel begins a journey of self-discovery and magical awakening. But the power within him comes with a price. As he grows stronger, he must confront his fears, his painful past, and the dark secrets of the Vallis family. The road ahead is fraught with danger, and Noel must learn to master the magic that flows through his veins, all while protecting his family’s legacy from those who seek to control it for their own gain.
