Magic with Meaning. Stories with Teeth.

A blonde girl in medieval peasant clothing stands at the edge of a misty forest, slightly turned away, surrounded by teal fog and dark trees. The book cover False-Gold Wishes & the Darkwraith by T.F. Burke appears in the upper left.

Some magic sparkles and fades.

Other magic notices who touches it.

At thirteen, Aunia stands at the edge of a misted forest with more questions than answers—and just enough courage to reach for something forbidden. What she doesn’t yet understand is that magic answers literally, remembers deeply, and sometimes draws the attention of things that were already searching.

This is where her story begins.
Not with prophecy—but with consequence.

Keston: The ESFP Adventurer Who Refuses to Stand Still

A smiling teenage boy with shoulder-length light brown hair and sparkly eyes, wearing a cream medieval poet shirt, stands in front of a forest backdrop. Text above reads “Writing an ESFP character” and below reads “Meet Keston Pendar.”

Keston isn’t just the comic relief in Heart of the Worlds—he’s the ESFP adventurer who turns battles into games, sparks laughter in the darkest hours, and hides scars behind his easy grin. The son of a famed sculptor, a commoner who impressed a golden pegasus, and a loyal friend to Aunia and Mathias, Keston reminds us that joy itself can be an act of rebellion.
