In a world teetering between the ordinary and the strange, a white-haired girl sits alone, her expression unreadable. The sensei watches her, sensing the weight of her sadness. When he intent on helping, she coldly refuses with four words "You wouldn't understand!" But how could he understand? She guards her secrets like armor, her words laced with an ache too deep to explain. Yet, the sensei feels a strange familiarity in her pain-like looking into a mirror he doesn't remember shattering. For he, too, is a person without roots-a person in this unknown world, waking with no memories of who he was or why he's here other than helping his students.

As the sun sets on Sonic and the crew's first day on Avalice, the Crowns of Guilt begin to weigh heavily on those burdened with responsibility. Loyalties are tested, wills are challenged, and the true cost of their choices looms just over the horizon.

The United States of an alternative history, set in the future, is transferred into an unknown world similar yet unlike Earth. Tyranny and oppression runs rampant across fallen nations with no one to turn to. Until now. As harbingers of Liberty and Justice, the United States shall not stand idle, delivering freedom to the oppressed and hope to those who've been trapped in darkness.

Summoning America version 1 has been discontinued. I may produce a completely new story but with the same title, some time in the future. in the meantime, please check out my other works on RoyalRoad by googling "Manifest Fantasy" or "Arcane Exfil" -- -- Entirely cut off from Earth, the United States finds itself in a scientific impossibility: the entire country, including the continental landmass and separated states and territories, was transported to another world. Unlike Earth, this new planet boasts phenomena unknown to science. Magic reigns supreme in this new region of the universe, bolstered by the natives' own scientific progression. Monsters roam wastelands and dungeons, subsisting off unfortunate travelers, local fauna, and sometimes even entire towns! Ambassador Samuel Anders is tasked with contacting the various nations and entities of this new world. Despite his best attempts at diplomacy, the arrogance and hostility of the natives prove to be an unnavigable barrier. War is the only alternative. Eventually, fears surface regarding an ancient evil: the Ravernal Empire. How will the United States handle the threats of this new neighborhood? What magical wonders will its adventurous citizens find? This Summoning Japan (Nihonkoku Shoukan) inspired work will follow the United States as it is summoned to a Elysia.
