On the distant globe of Glorion, there is no free will. Virtue comes in a vial. Vice spreads as a virus. Humanity has no control over its own morality. This was not the plan; this planet was once the promise of utopia. In 3012, a group of geniuses had engineered the human soul, crafting crime-free communities, sinless societies set to prosper in peace on this new Earth. It began with a vision of human perfection... gone horribly wrong. Eldor, heir to the world's throne in the year 5000, wages world war at the king's command. But will he champion his birthright, the dark empire of Zoll Zora? Or the glorious realm across the sea that he was sent to conquer? Good and evil, as potions and poisons, will be the strongest weapons wielded in this war. Spanning three millennia and two twin worlds, this is the epic saga of the eternal struggle and enduring strength—even and especially against all odds—of the will.

They walk among us. All three, living normal mortal lives. Cloe is graduating college; Lacey is getting married; Atria is bar-hopping and breaking hearts. Today, they are human. But they are also the three Fates—the all-powerful directors of human destiny. And they don't even know it. Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos did not always take mortal form. They dwelt in the Cave, working the Loom, till something happened on Olympus that changed everything one day. Since then, they've roamed the earth and led thousands of lives throughout its history. The Fates may not remember who they are, for now... but their legacy is not to be forgotten. And their story is just begging to be told. *A Wattpad Featured story* *Winner of 2014 Watty Award – Best of Interactive Storytelling* [PG-13 for adult language, non-graphic sexual content, mature themes]
