Any feedback that will help me improve is much appreciated! The awesome cover was made by CharlotteMallory here on Wattpad. Isn't it amazing? Trigger warning: This is a Dark fantasy tragedy. It is mature and contains scenes with violence, blood, torture, and death. There's very little bad language and no sex scenes. It has LGBTQ characters. Thank you and enjoy!

Anyone caught with any robotic implants were sent to the Helion prison complex, and purged from normal society. Even those who used to serve humanity. One such aug, Red, imprisoned for seven years in Helion dreams of escape. Initially recalled and stripped of his command of Aphelion, he dreams of escape which begins to shape into a reality when a new augment is dropped into the facility. One whose very identity would mean death from either side of the conflict.

Charlotte, Beckett, Swanmere lives as her father's untrimmed hedge. Merlot Rainbaum searches for a miracle cure to heal her mother, who is none other than the Queen of the Mermaids. Railey Ferntoss, renown across the Western Sector as the Dragon Master, can't finish off the illegal trades of dragon hunters without new networks popping up in the black market like a festering fungus. One fate-altering event allows Beckett's illustrious father a way to finally be rid of his elvaniac daughter: the murder of his dragon vet sister. Under the guise of settling her aunt's estate, located all the way out in the Western Sector, Beckett finds herself disowned, alone, and lost on the fringes of the world she's always known. Child messengers from the Goddess, predatory Dark Elf villagers, and the furry, winged surprise of a lifetime settle Beckett into a tumultuous new life. And she hasn't even met the other main characters yet! You are invited into the murky black market of the Goddess's Femur, a land of elves and other fae folk. Humorous and philosophical, pet owners may connect with the plight of a vet and her dragon.
