Summary
Phainon swallows around nothing, looking at the new boy, taking in his striking, angular face and sharp, golden eyes that never leave the Headmaster.
“Who's that?” he asks no one in particular, his voice a little breathless even in his own ears.
“Mydeimos Kremnos. You know those Kremnoses," the fourth-year standing next to him whispers back. "He's practically wizarding world royalty."
---
By his seventh year in Hogwarts, Phainon likes to think he’s gotten pretty good at this wizarding thing. On top of being both the Gryffindor Quidditch captain and a Prefect, he has plenty of friends and decent grades—everything he needs for a memorable but not too difficult graduation year. But when the Triwizard tournament is announced to return, and Hogwarts welcomes international guests, Phainon finds himself inexplicably drawn to Durmstrang’s would-be champion Mydeimos. When the Goblet of Fire spits out both their names, it’s sure to be an exciting year.- Language:

Summary
Deliverer: I think some introspection would do you well, Prince.
xPrince: I appreciate the concern, Deliverer, but I don't think pointing out the truth warrants such a thing.
Deliverer: I believe it does. You’re looking awfully pot shaped right now.
xPrince: ?
Deliverer: The idiom the pot calling the kettle black?
xPrince: Sorry the brain cells I have left from speaking with you were struggling to form a connection.
Deliverer: Accidental self burn?
xPrince: Focus on your leveling noob.
Deliverer: So you're resorting to name calling because you can't think of a good retort. Cute.
An AU where the heirs have a guild together in a game called Saga of Heroes.

Summary
Okhema believed Castrum Kremnos was destroyed, washed away by the Black Tide, like much of their world. But the dead, as it turned out, not only survived - they rose from the ashes in the brilliance of unseen technologies, forged for centuries in the heart of the mountains.
When a message from the King of Castrum Kremnos falls upon the square of the dying city, promising alliance and salvation, Okhema erupts in celebration. But Commander Aglaea does not share the universal delight. She knows that power never comes to ask. It comes to take.
Or.
Prince Mydeimos's mission was disgustingly simple: arrive in Okhema, choose the most suitable omega, and forge a political marriage. But no one warned him that on the way to the holy city, a wounded beta captain would literally fall into his arms. A beta who inexplicably drives the prince's instincts haywire. A beta whose eyes are the color of morning ice, and whose aura smells of emptiness and secrets.

Summary
“I’m Phainon,” he blurted, before the man could turn away, taking his attention, and his gaze, with him. The name surfaced from his memories, a bubble rising and popping into sudden clarity. Had he used it in life? Maybe. “At least let me buy my savior some food, as thank you. There’s a diner that has good reviews near here.”
For a few agonizing moments, Khaslana thought the man would refuse him. He would turn and walk away, and this chance would slip between his fingers. But then he sighed and shrugged a shoulder.
“Sure. They have great pancakes there.”The death of a vampire Lord leaves a power vacuum in Okhema, and Nanook sends their youngest to claim it for their clan. Khaslana is, allegedly, one of their favored, but he doesn't feel like it; he is sent with no warning and little backup, into a city swarming with vampires looking to claim the empty throne left behind, all while the ruthless and dangerous vampire hunter Aglaea works to cut the darkness out of the city entirely.
He expects violence and scheming in the city's thin shadows. He does not expect Mydei, or his own decision to fake humanity in a bit to strike up an alliance with the vampire hunter.

Summary
Phainon is an S-rank Hunter, the national hero known as "the Deliverer", and the Guildmaster of "Dawn" - a destitute guild ready to cover up everyone else's mistakes. The entire city adores him for his unwavering, dazzling smile and his breathtakingly spectacular ultimate "Angel" form. In a critical moment, he can spread giant wings, soar into the air, and rain down a meteor shower upon his enemies. And no one must know: that the flawless beta-hero is, in reality, an omega reliant on suppressors, for whom every use of his ultimate means burning his mana reserves to absolute zero and stepping closer to the edge of the abyss.
Mydei is an A-rank solo mercenary whose main goal in Okhema is to bake perfect croissants and avoid attention. And no one must know: exactly how he is tied to the bloody history of Castrum Kremnos, and that underneath his official A-rank lies not just a "berserker", but a powerful blood mage.
OR
A detailed guide by Mydei on how to go, in just a few days, from the "God, I hate this fake, smiling poser" stage to the "if a single hair falls from my angel's head, I will drown this city in blood" stage.
And no, that's not a threat. It's the new reality.
