Summary
Rowan Sorrengail was born for the Riders Quadrant.
For two years, he has carried the weight of his family’s expectations—the son of General Sorrengail, the brother of riders, the shadow of a sibling lost to war. His younger sister Violet is destined for the Scribe Quadrant when her time comes, leaving Rowan to walk the path carved for him alone.At Basgiath War College, weakness is a death sentence. The parapet culls the unprepared, the gauntlet breaks the reckless, and the dragons burn those they deem unworthy. To survive, Rowan must endure every trial, every rival, and every betrayal waiting inside the Riders Quadrant.
But survival demands more than strength. It demands allies. And when Rowan’s path collides with Xaden Riorson—the son of the rebellion’s executed leader and a first-year burdened with his own legacy—enmity turns into something far more dangerous: a fragile, necessary alliance.
As dragons choose their riders and the threat of war presses closer to Basgiath’s walls, Rowan will discover that loyalty cuts deeper than any blade—and that the spark of rebellion has already begun to burn.
Because in the Riders Quadrant, there is only one true law: ride… or die.

Summary
Daria barely survived the Battle of Resson, but at a steep price. Not only did she lose Soleil, her foster sister and only surviving family, she lost Liam, her childhood best friend and the person she loved most. Now, all that's left is pain and a festering, ever-growing thirst for revenge. Lost to the forces of her own rage and grief, Daria begins to descend into the darkest depths of her psyche, and in the background, her second year at Basgiath begins. Between RSC, a growing rift between her and Bodhi, the only person left from her close-knit circle of friends, and the resurgence of the Tyrrish Rebellion, Daria is at her limit. Soon, she will be faced with yet another impossible choice, and she will need to decide if her thirst for vengeance outweighs her commitment to the Revolution. And perhaps most importantly, Daria will need to rediscover what matters most to her, and who she wants to be outside of a soldier, a renegade, and wayward soul.

Summary

The Daramors are death incarnate.
The commanders of the world.
And I’m the only one left.”

Welcome to the next chapter. This new fic picks up where the last one left off, and this time, we’re diving into Fourth Wing. 🐉⚔️
This story will follow the events of the book, but with my own twist (you know how I do 😉). Expect drama, dragons, danger, and maybe a little heartbreak along the way. If you’ve been with me since the last fic — thank you. If you’re new — welcome!
Buckle up, cadets. We’re heading back to Basgiath. 🖤

Summary
If you haven't read Fourth Wing and Iron Flame yet, then I would recommend skipping this fanfic as it contains SPOILERS.
Imogen Cardulo's life doesn't begin with her breaking Violet Sorrengail's arm on Assessment Day and there is much more going on with her than what Violet sees. She is more than a side character this time around.
Once upon a time, because that is how all stories begin, she was just another teenage girl - a little rebellious, a little more reckless than her parents would have preferred, a typically annoying little sister... an awesome friend or a pain in the ass (depending on the day and which one of her friends you asked) and she had a not so little or subtle crush on Garrick Tavis, but who can blame her for that?
Then all the adults in her life went to war and the course of her life changed drastically.
This is her story, in her own words. Starting from the Apostasy and covering all the high and lows, all the joyful moments and the heartbreaks, all the victories and the mistakes and giving us a look into her relationships with Xaden, Bodhi, Quinn and especially Garrick.

Xaden POV: Xaden Riorson - Year 2 by Ubiquitously_Ubiquitous

Summary
Xaden Riorson just finished his first year at Basgiath War College. He's bonded to one of the most feared dragons in Navarre, and he's proven himself to be exceptionally powerful to his quadrant and command alike. Now, it's time for Year 2. Appointed section leader thanks to his efforts in War Games, Xaden will have to navigate new challenges in his second year as an official part of leadership, while secretly making plans behind the scenes, plans that will ensure that all of this, in the end, is worth it. Along the way, he has to navigate the renewed hatred of the new cadets, the prejudices of command, who will stop at nothing to try to break him, and the added stress of a new betrothal, something he wants nothing to do with, all while surviving the most brutal class in the Riders Quadrant.
A continuation of my series of Xaden's POV - Years 1-3, imagining the story of how our beloved wingleader came to be the person Violet meets in Fourth Wing. Many of the characters in this year will be familiar from Year 1, as we pick up where that left off, and this story contains multiple spoilers for Fourth Wing and Iron Flame. I do not recommend reading Years 1 or 2 until both books have been completed.

Summary
When Violet is requested for a private dance, she thinks nothing of it. She is riding the high of her three dances, one being the debut of her and Xaden's new routine, the cash raining down on them, so she doesn't bother to open her eyes when he steps in. Next time, she will make sure her eyes are open and that she looks at the customer before agreeing to the dance.

Summary
Any time Bodhi has to face the memories of his small hometown, Aretia, Tennessee, it’s painful. But after moving LA just over a year ago, he’s found a new home: at the Pink Pony Club.
As a performer at the club, he can be whoever he wants to be. He can be cool. He can be sexy. He can be expressive. He can even be himself.
Life in LA is better than he ever could have imagined. His new friends love and accept him for who he is, in a way his friends and family back home never could. He gets to dance without anyone judging him.
And tonight, he’s going to get what he wants most of all: the attention of the man at the front-left table who comes to all his shows, the one with the beautiful eyes. He doesn’t even know the man’s name yet, but Bodhi’s determined to meet him at last.
Because no matter what Mama or God may think, he is Bodhi Durran, and he is fucking beautiful.
Note: While I consider this to be a hopeful fic about Bodhi being comfortable in his own skin, it includes some difficult themes from Bodhi's past including religion, homophobia, and being outed before he was ready.
