Fee Monara, a woman outcasted from her homeland and unfamiliar with her own identity after years of just getting by, breaks her routine of working to survive in order to pursue her own life. In a world dominated by the mysterious attributes of nature, magic and diverse people and creatures, Fee's knowledge is in great need of expansion.
On accident, she meets a scarred and difficult orc, a fallen warrior banished from his land for a reason he refuses to share. The two, directionless and naive, form an unlikely duo and simply put one foot in front of the other. However, in doing so they stumble upon great darknesses across the land, realizing there is so much more outside of themselves that needs fixing. Even more so, that they aren't as unknown and unimportant as they originally thought.
Atlas, a Scorian human and Rognaut Orc hybrid, contains valuable genetics that hold potential magic power that he knows little about. As for Fee, a target has been on her back since she was born, and through her travels she discovers more about herself than she thought could possibly exist.

The Chosen Nothing
A girl lives a life so ordinary it borders on invisible, the kind no one looks at twice. She was never meant to be seen, and for the longest time, she wasn't. Until something -- or someone -- found her. After years of enduring struggles, the last thing she expects is to become the target of a man who wants her dead for reasons she cannot begin to understand. Magic isn't supposed to exist, and yet the world gives way without warning, answering to a voice that pulls her into something else entirely. Going out and beyond lies a different world. One where magic is not wonder, but law -- bound by rules that force each individual into unchangeable reality. She arrives already entangled in it. Enroled in an elite academy where power defines worth, Emma is pushed into a system that leaves no space for hesitation and mistakes. Alliances form and every decision carries consequence. She doesn't belong here. That much is obvious. What is not obvious is why everything keeps circling back to her. Emma was and is never meant to be found, and whatever has begun will unravel everything she has tried to keep intact. Author's Note: Hi~ if you enjoy slow-paced stories with longer chapters -- think story-rich, narrative-driven RPGs (e.g., Wuthering Waves, Genshin Impact), this is crafted for you. Patience is rewarded, and every moment is meant to deepen the journey. :)
