Honestly, my first thought was "Harry Potter what?" Then I pushed that aside and thought about, and it really doesn't do anything for me anyway. Very generic, very vague. Nothing to really catch a reader's interest.
Mmm...probably a story about a character who steals something, but it isn't literal. Like...maybe they "steal" someone's love. Or, it isn't about a thief at all. o.O
I'm going to be sneaky and post three titles that I'm playing around with to see what you guys think.
Edge of the Blade Emerald Sword Archer's Legend
I have some ideas specifically for the third title that'd be variations of it. For any of them, it'd be medieval/fantasy, so...yeah. o.o
All of them sound like they could be titles of a related trilogy. Edge of the Blade could be about an outcast who has taken to living as a mercenary. He hooks up with a woman who's brilliant with a bow. Through the first two book, they go on an epic adventure to reconcile the man with his family, and for the woman to become a legend and fufil a prophecy sort thing. In the last book, Archer's Legend, the man is reconciled, but the woman fufils the legend as it was foretold. The catch is that it wasn't told very clearly, and no one realized the woman had to die in order to fufil the prophecy. So she dies, and the man is heartbroken, but he goes home with his family and lives happily ever after, but never gets married.

Sounds cool, kind of like a story about the part of the royal family that gets ignored. Otherwise I'd have no idea what it was about. Unless it was suggested to me, and sounded relativity good, though, I wouldn't pick it up.

sounds like a story about someone trying to pursue their dreams and jus about everything goes wrong in a wacky fashion.
in eternal flame
if you were to die today, would you be able to tell yourself that you did everything you wanted and everything you could?

life is a puzzle. want to put it together with me?
It's beautiful, but doesn't exactly tell me anything about the story. It is nice, and I might pick it up if the cover looked cool. It could be something nice, but it just doesn't.... speak to me. I suppose?

Makes me think of stage productions. Maybe a murder mystery dealing with a play of some kind?
