Ry McGrath has never claimed to be a good person. It is widely thought that she isn't.
But that's only speculation of course, for a very simple reason.
Miss McGrath is unknowable. This collection of documents is the only information the Earth Space Study Organization (or, the E.S.S.O.) has on her. And Miss McGrath controls this collection.
The issue isn't hard to see, we're sure.
However, in an attempt to improve our database on Miss McGrath, the E.S.S.O. has decided to make this collection accessible to the public. We ask anyone with information on the individual know as Ry McGrath to, please, step forward. We thank you for your time.
~████ █████, spokesperson of the E.S.S.O.

In a world ruled by astrology, every citizen is bound to their zodiac sign. The Celestial Order ensures that no one questions their fate. Until Celeste Orion does. Born under the Air Dominion, she should have been a visionary, a scholar-a loyal servant of the stars. But when she uncovers a forbidden truth hidden deep in the archives, she realizes she was never meant to be an Aquarius at all. Celeste is forced into exile. But when a deadly Scorpio assassin, Kieran Vael, spares her life instead of ending it, she is thrust into a rebellion she never expected, and also, forbidden love.
The Partham Chronicles
You are not a human. Your ancestors came to earth thousands of years ago and have evolved with humans. At that time interbreeding was strictly forbidden. When the number of Parthams started dwindling, some of them started breeding with humans. If you have interbred and have produced an offspring then those offsprings have to go through the Selective Legacy Tests. They compete against each other and only one of the siblings will be selected and then separated from the family. Leysa Bhaskara has secrets, that she has safeguarded for many years. But now they are threatened to be exposed. Her family and her children don't have any idea of what the future holds for them. Her children are going to be put through the Selective Legacy Tests, where they are going to compete against each other. Only one is going to be selected. What will happen if her family is threatened? And the future of an entire planet is in jeopardy. This story is about Leysa and Navil and their three children Aaden, Vysna and Tashvin. How their lives will change and what secrets they uncover in their world and the Partham ( Aliens that are living among them ) world along with fighting with sinister forces. This story is *sci-fi *Drama *Teens *Action *Adventure *Fun *Mystery *Superpowers As I said in my profile I am primarily a sci-fi writer, and I have thoroughly enjoyed writing this story.
