A small town forgotten in all but legend, holds a dark secret; one only discovered by forgetting the reason you were looking.
Emilia lives a quaint village, filled with the same old people day in, day out, living out their lives in comfort. One day when she accidentally mixes the wrong herbs however, Emilia awakens from a centuries old curse alone. Unable to escape the fabricated structure that has been imposed upon the villagers, she turns to her friends, and together they attempt to complete the four impossible tasks set before they can free their town.
But is there more to the curse than meets the eye? Some players in the game are yet to appear, and along the way Emilia unmasks a horrible truth that could destroy everything.

Changing Fate The Saga
Some promises outlive the people who make them. Some curses do too. Nami, Nal'dron, and Aade have spent their entire lives believing they were ordinary young adults with a few unusual abilities and an unbreakable friendship. Raised together after the loss of their parents, the three have become each other's family, facing every challenge side by side. But on the night of their twenty-first birthday, everything changes. A forgotten power awakens within Nami, exposing secrets buried long before any of them were born. Hidden bloodlines, ancient kingdoms, and a centuries-old order known as The Circle begin to emerge from the shadows, revealing that the lives they thought were theirs have been shaped by a betrayal committed generations ago. Now hunted by enemies they don't understand and drawn into a world where magic is older than history itself, the three friends discover that their families left behind more than secrets-they inherited a curse capable of destroying everyone they love. To break it, they must unravel the truth behind an ancient prophecy, survive a kingdom built on lies, and confront powers that have waited centuries for their return. But every answer comes with a cost, and every step toward the truth brings them closer to a fate that has claimed countless lives before them. Because some destinies are written in blood. And some are willing to rewrite the world to escape them.
