Into the Horizon

10 parts Ongoing

Arielle Vega has always lived in the shadow of the towering, pristine skyscrapers of the Horizons Coalition, confined to the grit and struggle of the lower city. Raised in poverty and abandoned by a world that only values the elite, she's never had the luxury of dreaming beyond survival. But when a rare opportunity arises to test for a prestigious academy, Arielle sees it as her chance to escape the only life she's ever known. Thrown into an environment far beyond her reach, Arielle must navigate the high expectations of her new life while wrestling with the remnants of her past. With every challenge, she faces the harsh truth: in a world divided by wealth and status, she'll have to fight harder than ever to prove she belongs. The path forward is unclear, and the pressure is immense, but Arielle is determined to rise, to take control of her future, and to make the life she's always dreamed of a reality. In a universe where every step can be a struggle for those from the lower city, Arielle must find the strength to overcome the past and reach for a future that seems impossible.
