15-year-old Moon lives in a world where Prophets are despised, teens drink at startlingly young ages, and children are forced to work long hours to earn a living. Her world is filled with fear, gangs, and violence. Her mother was a Prophetess, her father a rich man who didn't even know of her existence.
A bastard, an orphan, and a girl destined for death, Moon lives a far-from-bland life. With the help of long-time friends Kamil, Angel, and recent acquaintances Morgan, Zechariah, Wyatt, Newton, and Julio, she sets out on an adventure to break the prophecy, restore her family name, and burn her legacy into the peoples' minds.
Moon's mother was a Prophetess. And now, with her gone, it's up to her and her friends to fix the prophecy she gave.

Note: If you notice it, coin is spelled with a 'k'. This is because I wanted a different name for money but was just way too lazy to figure one out because eh.
Anywho, I hope you enjoy this attempt at a masterpiece.
