At just fifteen, Elio Deren was cast onto the streets, blamed for a crime she didn't commit-the murder of her own sister. The real culprit? Her younger brother. Betrayed and abandoned, Elio's life spiraled into darkness after a destined encounter left her scarred forever. Forced to survive at any cost, she lost touch with her humanity, becoming a person that would do anything to survive in this hell filled world.

Five years later, she decided to take a leap of faith. YUI-an organization built from the ground up-was meant to be a haven for misfits like her. But it became something far greater. It birthed the Identity Changer, the most revolutionary device in existence. With it, Elio erased herself and stepped into a new life, disguising herself as a man, determined to leave her past behind completely.

But the past doesn't let go so easily.

When an unexpected figure from her history resurfaces, Elio's carefully crafted illusion begins to crack. With enemies closing in and secrets unraveling, she must ask herself: Can she outplay the game of deception, or will her mask slip-exposing the truth she's fought so hard to bury?

No one ever knows the whole story... Nestled deep in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, something is emerging. Kept in absolute secrecy, it seeps into a fading town, quietly shared from person to person. For Alden Bensen, a directionless high school graduate, this discovery could mean an escape from his empty existence. To Rachel DuValle, perpetually underestimated and dismissed by the world, magic represents a chance to become something much greater than herself. In the face of an unsuspecting world, their decisions shape the growth of a budding society discovering untold power. This potent force offers anyone the power to change humanity forever - or send it cascading into swift and total annihilation. ----- The Last Science is an ongoing science-fiction / low-fantasy web novel series.
