Longtime-rivals Stories

In a fractured world divided into eight distinct Sectors, every citizen's destiny is shaped by their birth group's legacy-be it fierce warriors, cunning tacticians, healers imbued with ancient energies, or seers guided by celestial visions. At sixteen, every Sector child faces the Ordeal: a competition that determines not only their fate but the fate of their entire Sector. For Liana Hale, born to the lowest-ranked Sector but scarred with a power no one understands, survival means more than just glory. It may ignite a revolution. As alliances form and secrets unravel, Liana must decide where her loyalty lies-in the world she's always known, or in the power stirring deep within her veins. But in a society built on division, blending the boundaries between Sectors may come at a price few are willing to pay. Welcome to the Sectors, where power, loyalty, and destiny collide. Will you rise, or will you be consumed by the shadows of your birth?
