《Twilight Moon - Poly Story》chapter 1 - leaving Arizona

Everlyn's pov
Today is the first day of summer vication. and the day I'm going to forks, I go every summer, my sister used to come as well but one summer she stopped. she said it was because she didn't want to leave Mom alone, but Dad is along all year round, I hate that she doesn't care about him as much as she does mom, it always made me feel like I have to care more about dad to make it equal.
Bella and I used to be inseparable. we were twins after all, fraternal twins but still. I don't feel like we're twins anymore. I barely feel like we're sisters, at some point around maybe 12 years old something changed about her, and I never understood what that was, and for a while I blamed myself for the way she acted toward me.
Suddenly she wanted a room of her own, made new friends, didn't want to do any after school classes that we were doing together, which meant I had to stop doing them. because our mom believes we have to do everything together. which sucked because I was just starting to feel like I was getting good at some of them, but then I was forced to stop.
I was angry, she knew I wanted to continue doing them, and it almost felt like she did it on purpose. mom always preferred Bella, no matter what her opinions overthrew mine. but there was one thing that was always important to me, one thing that I was never willing to give up because of Bella, and that's going to see my dad every summer.
My mom recently got married again, to a guy named Phil, he's an okay guy, never tried to be my dad, which I appreciated, but now they are considering moving and traveling for his work, I dont care if they do, I just hope they dont force me to come.

I don't really like the school in Arizona, I don't have a lot of friends here. if they want to move I would like to move to Forks, but I know that it's not my choice it's Bella's. because mom would never let me move without her, I hate the feeling that I can't have control over my own life, I can't wait to be 18, if it was up to me, and it will be once I'm 18, I'm on the first plane to Forks.
My bags are all packed and the cab should be here in about 2 minutes, I can't wait to see my dad again.
I went downstairs taking my bags with me. I yelled out to my mom to tell her I'm leaving and a second later she walked into the room with Phil at her side.
She looked at me and asked, "are you all packed?" not seeming to care that much.
"Yes I am, the cab will be here soon to take me to the airport." I answered.
She looks at me for a brief moment before saying, "good... good" she then turned to the living room smiling, I turn as well to see what she's looking at, only to see Bella sitting on the couch reading. 'of course, can't she do anything alse?'.
she looks at her lovingly and asked, "are you sure you don't want to go see Charlie, sweetie?"
To which Bella replied, "no, I'm good" not even glancing up from her book.
My mom looks so happy almost smug about her answer, Bella loves her more than she does Dad, and mom knows it. Mom went and sat next to Bella on the couch, while Phil was still standing in front of me.
Not long past before the cab was outside.

"bye kiddo" Phil said smiling at me.
"bye Phil" I replied back, "bye Mom, bye Bella" I said, my mom glanced at me and said "yeah, bye Eva" Bella didn't even look up from her book, no wave, nothing, even after all this time it still stang.
me and Bella haven't exactly been great friends for the last five years, but I still hate how she ignores.
I'm always there when she needs me.
sometimes she would ask for stuff and I would do it for her, because as much as we haven't been acting like it, we're still sisters.... but when she doesn't need anything it's like talking to a wall.
sometimes it makes me feel like I lost someone.
like I used to have a sister but something happened to her,
and I can never figure out what that was,
can never get her back.
I picked up my bags but Phil said, "let me take that." I gave him my bags and he walked out to the cab, I think he feels a little bad, because mom and Bella didn't give me a proper send-off. he puts my bags in the trunk while I got in the cab.
Once he's done he leanes over the window and says "bye kiddo be careful, and have a nice time." we said our final goodbyes, before the cab finally took off to the airport, I'm going home.

The Foretold: Sun Child (Complete)
As a sixteen year old commoner, your future is bleak. Worse, your appearance sets you apart from others. Your only achievement so far, is befriending the second son of the Lord of the Keep. He has been your only friend for eleven years, initially partner in mischief and later your hunting companion and confidant. Now your friendship is being torn asunder, he has turned eighteen and is being sent away to become a Judge Knight Aspirant. What is to become of you? Before your friend leaves, there is murder and conspiracy! Magic left the land hundreds of years ago, all you have is your bow and hunting skills, nevertheless you must fight to survive and save another to have any hope of a future! Note: The graphic isn't mine; it is a re-imagining of a few separate images, any objections by original artists let me know. N.B. If you are looking for Sexual Content every chapter, or every second, third or fourth chapter this isn't the story for you - the Sexual Content is required for a plot device, not a way of life and the later chapters reflect that - please stop dropping Low Ratings when you feel I haven't met your idea of "fan service". This is finished as much as a multi book vision can be finished. At 750,000 words give or take and very little readership I can only blame myself. I have learnt a lot, possibly forgotten a lot as well! I will probably return to the Chapters at some point - a touch up here and a touch up there. The second book though will probably remain in my head for a very long time, so yes "cliffs" although I hope the characters and their motivations are developed enough that you can have a good guess at the content of Book Two and tell me so I can confirm or deny! This isn't a LITRPG where classes are developed, great foes are defeated by a hero of immense power. This is a story based within (I hope) a very real and consistent culture, that leaves breadcrumbs for the reader to work out what the heck is happening and why. This is a slow burn story as the MC is stumbling around discovering her new place and role. Author's Note (Apr 2021): I dropped the Fantasy Genre for the Mystery Genre, because while the setting mentions magic, is it about past glories and trying to return to them. Whereas the MC from Chapter One doesn't understand her predicament and the range of mysteries she must solve to survive. If I have this wrong PM me and I will change this back.

Is this the end of Time? Author's note: Being someone with full-time work and with a rolling schedule, I'll update whenever I have time, so no promises on a consistent schedule. *This is a slow paced story with dungeon building elements showing up later on. *In this world, a dungeon seed first needs to prove its worth and only then it gets the chance to become a dungeon core and grow. *All art is by me

Then you've come to the right place!

Cryptmother: Bride of the Dungeon Core
A tongue in cheek tale about a silly little necromancer and her dungeon-based woes...Graverra Graeme always knew she was destined for more than the average adventurer, even as a low level Necromancer in a realm where such practices are typically frowned upon. When she catches the eye of a lonely dungeon core she isn’t surprised… At first. Offered the chance to raise the dead and rise to her full potential but at the cost of her personal freedoms, Graverra navigates her new life Cryptmother; Bride of the dungeon core. Started as part of HereThereBeTreasure’s Fast Food Front Page Challenge, aka the Trash Race, continuing because I’m having fun, experimenting with some things, and Graverra needs her big goth castle dammit. While this is now tagged romance, it’s not a healthy one! Who knew throwing in with the first core to pay you any attention wasn’t grounds for a healthy relationship… While I plan to keep things light, ‘two impulsive power hungry users have to work together’ is kind of the backbone of this story. Consider this the official ‘toxic romance’ tagging. It’s the author’s first time building a dungeon too, bear with us 💖Dungeon Building begins around Chapter 10Dungeon Running to begin soon after Chapter 20 Now updating Wednesdays
