This fantasy story is made ENTIRELY of people of color (POCs). As an LGBTQ+ BIPOC myself, I wanted to take this opportunity to write a story that was out of my norma and create an entire universe based on the different minorities (in the United States). If that offends you or your reader's sensibilities, please do not proceed further. In addition, there are various elements to the story that includes LGBTQ + themes later on. If those offend you, please do not proceed. I will not be editing those aspects out of the story.
The main characters in this novel are in bold, while minor (but not insignificant) characters are in italics.
