A World Within A World (On HOLD)
Morrigan lived her life one plot point at a time. It was quite boring for the majority of her twenty one years. Especially when you eliminated yourself from the plot. Morrigan didn't develop all of her knowledge for her world at once. It came in pieces starting from when she was very young. She didn't just have the memories of one timeline or plot in her head. She had many. As if she'd live a thousand lives at once. The hard part was discerning which world this would be. She didn't want to do random research. She wanted to be surprised. Her current world was a Dual World, meaning it had people known in different television series, movies, or books. This world wasn't just witches, vampires, and werewolves. There were also Magicians along with everything they came with.
