Fan Fiction Contest 4! UPDATE BELOW
🕑 Added 2025-07-13 01:32:05 +0000 UTCThis is a reminder and a change to the fan fiction contest deadline. Submissions are moving back to September 1st from August 15th. I hope to release book 5 with the audiobook around October 1st, so in order for the fan fiction to be included, submissions need to be sumbitted to Discord and voted on.
This fan fiction has a prize of hardcover copies of books 1, 2, 3, 4, and book 5 (when printed). All signed by me with whatever message you want! And one month of Seraphim Tier Access. Submissions will be made on Discord for the fan fiction contest chat room. You can submit them at any time before the deadline; you don't need to wait until the last minute!
Submissions should be between 3,000 and 10,000 words and will be voted on Patreon for the winner. There may be multiple rounds of voting—or not. The winner will be posted with credits. If the author wants, I will include the fanfiction in the back of a future published book (book 5) with the author's permission. It will be posted to RR and Scribble with the author's permission as well.
The winner gets their version to become canon for the world! (if it matches my suggested content edits)
Choices for Fanfiction:
Maveith's journey after he fled Stone Mountain Island, seeing his sister brained by orc slavers. How hard was his journey? He befriended a goblin on a ship. And was near a dessert at one point...that is all the info from the book so far. A map of the other continent will be created for book 6 (i have the map)
The Rise of Flavius as a wight and him wandering the Elven city of Caelora....foreshadowing much. Specters, wights, wraiths, and banshees do not like him but are not attacking. The city's curse anchored him and forced him to defend the city. What could he find in his travels? He cannot leave the walls of the city, anchored to his decaying corpse. But he remembers Konstantin killed him.
The goblin...yeah that one
Mage Ona Severna, gray-blue eyes, silky raven black hair, 5'9". child of Baron Erebus Severna (grandfather is Duke Tiberius, who dotes on her). So she got the charm affinity amulet from Tiberius, doubling her power. Her twin brother is First Citzen Cashius. Her brother is favored by her parents and unnecessarily cruel to her. Which has made her cruel as well. Now, with the amulet, she has some power... This POV can be before or after the Emperor is killed. The power struggle in the capital has her grandfather helping DUke Octavian to the Emperor's seat....the epilogue of book 5 has her in it so wait to write this until after you read that
Konstantin's acquisition of his blade. he killed an elf woman for it - one who seduced him. The elf woman was a Death Hunter he met while serving in the Hounds. Who betrayed who? Was Konstantin in elven lands, or was the Ranger in Telhian lands? Details on the elven blade - Deathstrike. Forged to kill undead by an ancient elven smith of Caelora....yes, that wight in book 2 was the deceased master swordsmith who was pulled from the city when the blade got close. His tie to the blade was stronger than his tie to Caelora
Mynasha's troubles as a Supreme
A Dungeon POV - choose a dungeon in any of the books and detail what it thinks of Eryk's actions
Maveith slowly being forced into the role as a leader of his people - dealing with the dungeon (this one is off the table as it is now a coming POV chapter)
Konstantin running Adrian's Rest and how good/bad he is at it
If you have another idea, post it in the comments, and I might add it, but there are no guarantees.

It wouldn't be canon, but you can write it.

Hello Always rolls a One, I am a huge fan, got all the audiobooks, love the story. I am really interested in joining your contest, but I was wondering if it is alright with you if I could do a fan fiction of Emperor Maxium Augustus Severus, surviving his arrow shot, stripped out of his armor by loyal legionary, and was hidden as a legionary. Now a prisoner of the Bartiradians, kept for information that the Bartiradians desperately need, since all they can offer to the war effort is information (given how badly their army lost in the recent battle) as they attempt to rebuild a new army. I think it would be a really nice riches to rag story, of a man haunted by the pressures of rule with his memory barely holding on, now reduced to no better than a slave, his aether channels burnt to the point he can't call on his void powers, now forced to aid the enemies of his empire destroy all that he has built, which is now stolen from him by his own son.

Wait. A dungeon POV? That sounds fun...
