Introduction
Bantia a small country located off the west coast of Fiore, and home to the mage guild Blazing Soul. A relatively small guild with a short but complicated history, where mages gather to work. They regularly go up against monsters, evil mages, and everything in between, all just to make a living. During what should have been a simple errand, one of these mages, Axel Dawngrave, meets a girl named Amber. After Amber is injured in a fight, Axel and his talking cat friend Zeke bring her back to the guild, where the story really begins...

Having nowhere else to go, Jaina suggests she join the local mage guild, Blazing Soul. But surrounded by strangers, many of which she either finds annoying, does she even want to stay?

The Paths Behind
A collection of one shot chapters that I wrote whenever I hit a block with the main story, or if I need a break from it. Each one tells the backstory of one of the main characters, or two in some cases, and don't necessarily have an order to them. These are not mandatory reads if you follow my main story-line, but I figured I'd post them anyway for anyone interested enough to see more of a specific character.
- Axel and Zeke: Encounter for the ages
- Geno: Cost of revenge
- Raven: Flames of Rebellion
- Leo and Shelly: Passing the torch
- Rift: Those left behind
- Peltin and Carra: The price to pay
- Kat: Chose your life
