Althea lived an ordinary life, her days shadowed by loss and solitude. On her 20th birthday, everything changed. She awakened to extraordinary powers and a revelation that shattered her reality-she is the rightful queen of a distant, magical realm.
Althea's life was woven in the threads of ordinary-mornings softened by her cat's quiet demands, evenings tangled in laughter with friends, and the steady rhythm of days unremarkable. But fate does not weave idle patterns. Beneath the mundane, something stirs. A name lost to time. A legacy buried in whispers.
Between fleeting visions and murmurs of an unseen world, the air hums with a magic she does not yet understand. The stars have long written her path, but the ink of destiny is never dry.
Some fates are chosen. Others awaken.

The Soul Collector's Oath
At twenty-three, Althea feels like the world has turned its back on her. Orphaned young and raised by her ailing grandmother, she carries the weight of rejection after rejection, each failed job application a reminder of her dwindling hope. All she wants is one chance - one reason to believe her persistence matters. But when an accident shatters her first day of work, Althea awakens in a realm beyond death. There, she is confronted by the God of Death himself, who reveals that her cries for help have been heard - not by fate, but by him. Faced with the horrifying truth of her own mangled body, Althea is given a choice: Accept judgment like every other soul, risking eternal punishment... Or swear an oath as a Soul Collector, a Grim Reaper tasked with guiding the dead to their final fate. Haunted, terrified, yet desperate to protect her grandmother and cling to life, Althea accepts the offer. Reborn into a double existence - one as an ordinary woman, the other as a reaper bound to death - she must navigate the weight of her new responsibility. But being chosen is not a blessing. Dark spirits lurk at the edges of her vision. The line between the living and the dead grows thin. And the oath she has taken binds her to secrets that could consume her soul. In a world where every choice tips the scale between life and death, Althea must learn that survival is no longer about finding a job - it's about keeping her humanity while serving the God of Death himself.
