The Forbidden City

Before her death, Queen Celestra defied betrayal. She poured her final breath into a spell - scattering her powers accross the mortal world. The gems found its own way to their new owners-5 newborn daughters destined to rise against the darkness.

This quintuplets separated at birth and raised in different families, begin to glimpse strange powers they cannot control. One by one, tragedy finds them. Their parents fall in different times, to different hands, yet always with the same mark left behind: a shifting pentagon etched on the killer's skin.

Grief leads each of them to the gates of a place thought only to exist in whispered tales: the Forbidden City. There, strangers cross paths, unaware of the blood that binds them. Each bears fragments of Celestra's gift, untrained, dangerous, and growing stronger. But the mark they chase is not their enemy's at all. It is their own birthright, a seal that will awaken and threaten to tear them apart.

As suspicion grows and loyalty frays, they begin to fear one another more than the shadows stalking them. And beyond those shadows waits Nyxandra, twisting truth into lies, waiting for the sisters to destroy themselves so she can claim the city.

Five sisters. One legacy. A fate written in blood and stone.

Will they uncover the truth before turning on one another?
Can they master the powers meant to save their world-or will those same powers consume them first?
And when the final battle comes...
will they rise as one, or fall divided into darkness?
