The Blessed and the Pure┃🖋

Hallie Nephus would like to live her life without too much trouble; please and thank you. But no. The old gods refuse to give her a break.

Hallie got what some would call the chance of a lifetime when her parents sent her off to perform at the most prestigious amphitheater in Synoliká. A bump in the road, but she'll get through it. That is until rumors of splitting either the Sómata - a race of mortals who could control the energy in their bodies - or the Taktikoí - normal mortals - into the new lower class with about as many rights as a grain of sand. And there are many out there who will stop at nothing to rise above the rest and prove their worth. Those mortals are up to something. They are the ones to be feared.

All that before Hallie can decide if her new life is the miracle she so desperately wants it to be or the curse she can never accept it to be.
