    Summary

    Have you ever had to keep your existence a secret, because if anyone found out, you would be hunted?

    This is Artemis' reality. Having isolated herself deep in the Elderwood for a decade, she no longer knows what it's like to live as a person. All alone, her identity a secret, she lives every day out of pure survival. Haunted by the memories of her past which keep her trapped in an endless solitude, she sometimes yearns to be able to walk among people again.

    She had always told herself that it's safer the way she lives, until a broad-shouldered miner makes a fatal mistake in the Elderwood, forcing her to act. Now, she feels his pull coaxing her into the light, but the call to the shadows is equally as compelling.

    Summary

    Falling into a new world with no memories of your previous life can be terrifying - but Kaylee was lucky to emerge in Palia, near Kilima Village, where everyone is a stranger at first, but most of the foreign Majiri are welcoming, friendly and eager to help the human find her place in her new life.
    As time flies by, relationships are formed and deepened and Kaylee discorvers some soft cores under hard shells.
    One Majiri is particulary special to her, right from the beginning, but she has to prove herself in so many ways first, before Eshe lets her see behind all her walls eventually.
    With the help of Chayne (who will become her shepp) Kaylee tries to make a difference in the lives of the villagers, but not everyone is open for her sometimes unconventional methods (she was a physiotherapist in her previous life and brings therapeutic massage to Kilima).

    Can Kaylee help Eshe improve the relationships with her detested husband and her rebellious daughter? Or is everything in vain in the end, because some damage done in the past is beyond repair and the trauma inflicted is just too deep?

    Summary

    Humans have been showing up in Palia for at least a year now, and the people of Kilima and Bahari Bay are old pros at hospitality. But what happens when a new type of human starts to show up in Palia? Messier, with complicated memories and strange skills? Not really Palian... almost... alien?
    Ves is one of those humans, arriving in a heap with a wet coat. Will she be able to navigate life and find her Purpose in Kilima? Or will her encroaching memories become too much for her to handle? Add in three complicated men and it's enough to make anyone sing the blues.

    Summary

    "His eyes, blue as the clearest waters, always held some sort of hesitancy even in his open flirting- with her and everyone around him. She doesn’t consider herself any more special than the other Humans, and it did sting a little when she realized he’s like that with everyone. Every single time she felt like maybe, just maybe, he’s a little different with her; she sees someone else gazing at him the same way she does.

    She’s made her peace with this reality a few weeks in. They flirt, they banter, and sometimes a glance or two lingers just a bit longer than it should. Then he hands her another bowl of soup, she thanks him, and that’s it. That’s all there is.

    There’s no reason for her heart to jolt with electricity every time they accidentally touch, no reason for her breath to hitch when he looks at her. She has no reason to feel any of this.

    And yet…"

    Summary

    Xulaera and Kylatria emerged together in Kilima Valley and now share a small plot. They seem to have very little in common outside of their strong sibling bond but still try to work together to make this unfamiliar world feel like home.
    While Xulaera battles with her unwanted flashbacks and aggressive temper, it doesn't stop her from doing anything she can to protect her younger sister. Kylatria struggles with feelings of dejavu and lacking any solid memories yet does her best to spread joy to those around her.
    Will these two manage to find where they belong while making friends and possibly finding love along the way?

    This is only my second story so I am still learning as I go (early chapters are a little rougher, imo) but hope you enjoy!
    The entirety of this fic takes place "early game", as it was plotted out before friendship 5 quests and Elderwoods was released.

    M-rating due to topics/CWs rather than sensual content.

    Summary

    In the cosy warmth of Ormuu’s Horn, a love as tantalizing as Reth’s cooking begins to simmer. You’ve spent nearly a year in Palia, building friendships and finding a place in the charming village of Kilima. But there’s something more between you and Reth, the inn’s flirtatious chef. What started as playful banter and shared meals has become a delicate dance of lingering glances, lingering touches, and unspoken desires.

    Between stolen moments in the kitchen, late-night confessions, and unexpected favours, you find yourself caught in the heat of something more than friendship. Reth’s devilish charm is undeniable, but so is the tenderness hidden behind his teasing smiles. As secrets unfold and the two of you are drawn closer, you’ll have to navigate the tension, the vulnerability, and the undeniable chemistry that sparks between you.

    Will your bond with Reth remain a playful flirtation, or will it ignite into something deeper, more dangerous, and harder to resist? One thing’s for certain—between the delicious meals and the even more delicious tension, you’ll never look at the kitchen the same way again

    Summary

    Formerly 'Your Local Anomaly'

    Sorcha came into the world like any human being -- through the shimmering pink light of a long-abandoned Embra shrine in a world that hasn't seen humans in 10,000 years. Now they must adjust to this strange new world and its inhabitants - the Majiri - along with their customs and culture.

    Summary

    Hodari knelt beside the limp form. He remembered this human, seeing her stop by to see Najuma and occasionally wave at him. They rarely spoke aside from official mining business and even that could be considered a stretch. She would approach with his letter, and he, the man of few words, would end up doing all of the talking. She would nod gratefully and then take her leave. Rarely saying more than a yes or no with a nod. After a few visits he’d learned a few of her expressions, she never said a word to him, but those had always spoken volumes.

    Summary

    A cook, a hunter, and a displaced Immortal of an ancient race walk into a bar. Sounds like the start of a bad joke

    Utopia comes at a devastating price. Akei remembered the feeling of dread and emptiness as everything crashed around her. She was born at the end of forever, just in time to watch it fall apart. Little did she know the life that awaited her once she was brought out of an eternal dream.

    I suck at summaries sorry

    Summary

    After emerging from the Phoenix three months ago, Vii is starting to get the hang of their new life in Kilima Valley. They've made friends and proven themselves to be a valuable member of the community. But no matter what they do, a small part of Vii feels like they don't belong. Uncovering what happened to the humans like them has certainly kept them occupied, but they're starting to ask themselves: what do they really want from their second life?

    As they chip away for answers, Vii wrestles with the possibility that what they want might be what's in front of them.

    Summary

    “I broke things off with Nai’o,” Kenyatta says, pretty much out-of-the-blue.

    She’s sitting at the bar, a sweet-root smash in her hands, and Reth, who is just trying to get through the early evening and into his next shift, freezes in place.

    “Whoa,” is all he can think to say.

    Slinging drinks and making soup is easy. The therapist part of being an innkeep? Challenging.

    Nai’o hates Reth. Reth didn’t have strong feelings about Nai’o, really. But after a steamy storeroom encounter, his opinion changes. For the worse.

    Then, eventually, for the better.

    Summary

    A dream. Obviously. That's where Lyla finds herself, in this make believe world where everything comes easy. With no memories of her real life, and a deep ache in her chest, all she wants to do is get home.

    But it's not a dream. It's a game, created by God-knows-who, and it's trapped her here. The only way out? Find whoever needs her most, and help them. Preferably without falling in love along the way.

    OR

    Hassian does have a heart. It is buried beneath a mountain of defence mechanisms and hides a deep chasm of pain, but it is there, and its beat is strong.

    (this summary needs work)
    also please note: this fic includes real quests and dialogues from within the game, but I have taken several liberties
