History is written by the victors. In Etrovor, it's enforced by cruelty. For many years, travel between Earth and the fantasy-tinged dimension of Etrovor a highly bureaucratic parliamentary monarchy, has been possible and has inspired institutionalized academic pursuit. For sharp-witted Stanford archivist Dr. Frances "Frankie" Abernathy, it's a dream job--until she commits an act of high treason. Frankie has smuggled out The Ephemeretic, an ancient, forbidden manuscript written in the arcane language of Scribtic. Within the pages of this ancient journal she uncovers a dangerous secret hidden by Etrovor's ruling, non-magical Statist regime: the existence of a true hybrid heir possessing both divine sovereign magic and rogue spellcasting. But decoding the truth carries a lethal price. Swept into a volatile political trap, Frankie is subjected to brutal chemical interrogation. Instead of breaking, the procedure triggers something ancient. Frankie wakes up with a fractured mind, and terrifying new abilities. Now on the run in a massive, steam-hissing underground sub-dirigible alongside her fiercely loyal partner and interplane mechanic, Mag, Frankie is forced into a fragile alliance of convenience with the very monster who targeted her--Abbatis Illshaw, a ruthless state curator who harbors a shocking connection to the forbidden journal. 📝Author's Note 📝 This is a novel with two timelines of stories, one from the perspective of Frankie , the protagonist and one by the Ephemeretic's author, Rhellia Tow. There are also pieces of academic writing by the characters strategically placed throughout. It is suggested to read this in order of post, however if you would like to read the Ephemeretic separately, that would be totally acceptable as well. ⚠️Trigger Warnings⚠️ References to domestic abuse (from the past) and disassociation In-scene violence
