Humans born with dormant magic never expect to put their lack of power to use. Caesia and Zhaika Vallenscey were no different; born with the marks of telekinetic magic, but never able to access that power, the twin sisters spent most of their lives doing menial labor and trying not to see themselves as failures. Until now. When Caesia is summoned to the royal palace and doesn't come back out, Zhaika embarks on a crazy journey in an attempt to save her, one that will take her far beyond what she thought were the edges of reality. She didn't expect to use her magic, she didn't expect to jump into a dimension filled with Demons, and she definitely didn't expect to fall in love with one. Even the threat of the Demons seems like nothing compared to the legend of Seven Twisted Stars, which describes seven forces that will bring the downfall of every civilization to ever exist. At first, the Prophets thought these Stars were theoretical, but after running into a teenager with a tendency to let conflict escalate, Hunter isn't so sure. One Prophet, one Human, and one Demon stand little chance of fixing everything. And through all of it, Destiny just doesn't seem to care. But then, Destiny has never cared for individual fates. Its job is to write all of history, so as long as time keeps turning, what happens at a given point is of little concern. Legacy? That's my job. And even if they don't know I exist, I've grown too close to too many beautiful people to give up on them now. ******* Inspired by my short story collection The Web That Was Once Reality ONGOING.
