"Duality lies in the origin of life - light and dark, fire and water, expanding and contracting. Interconnected and interdependent in the natural world, opposite forces are complementary. Together they may manifest as something greater."
- Dr F. Van Rosendal
[Blood Type AB : hBP 0.83], Chief of Biomedical Engineering and Electrochemical Evolution, ESTAS*
In a dystopian world, two species of human - Sapiens and Vipers - have evolved to co-exist since the beginning. Divided into those who feed and those who are food; both have advanced to form symbiotic bonds, sharing energy and abilities within blood.
Together they form a perfect union, Geminae.
But life is not in balance. In a world where duality is everything, three is a crowd:
VIPERS - revered as gods and royalty, adapted long ago to harvest blood energy through psychic connection - are slowly dying out.
Few SAPIENS have the evolved blood type (EVes), enabling them to share energy with vipers. The demand for high blood potential (hBP) has sky-rocketed, allowing illegal blood hunters to prosper and flourish.
HYBRIDS - sterile progeny of both, forced to live outside the technologically advanced cities - continue to threaten blood ties and blood trade between nations.
A war is coming. And it's going to bite.
