Erva

Erva. Minerva. Athena. I have many names and some whisper them into the starry sky, while some shout them on the war fields. I listen to all. All I ask, is to listen back. I'll be strong, in return.

At 16, she trains to be the most skilled deity in combat and consequently becomes the faithful Tactics General for her kingdom, Mount Olympus ruled by Zeus. She's confident about the outcome of The Tournament -a rite of passage showcasing talent and control beheld by the Higher Council- but when the council denotes her as an Akrates, a powerless, her soul is literally crushed.

At 18, she's alive but not living. She still trains alone, or at least tries, though without much progress. She will never be able to engage in combat again and it pains her.

Until one day, Eric, her faithful companion and keeper of a dangerous secret is kidnapped the day before her coronation ball is due. With her worries, fear, and frustration she will discover that everything is not as the eye beholds.

Can she reign victorious as the prophecy foretold?
Can she stop a war that might lead to the utter destruction of the Universe?
Will she be able to save the people she cares for?
Especially when they need her the most?
