Apricity

Summary

The systems of Orion hang in a fragile balance; a balance that was created many moons ago and has been maintained by the Preceptors ever since the First Wake.

Through the veins of the veil, psithurisms carry rumours of an uprising headed by a group society knows as outcasts, criminals, Riders, and self-proclaimed revolutionaries. Though known by many different names throughout the system, one stands out amongst them all—the Hand of God.

They claim to stand for righteousness and for the people, but the people they claim to stand for fear the very mention of their name.

The scale is tipping, the veil between worlds thinning, creatures from the In-Between slipping through unseen cracks.

The ancient writings speak of a prophecy, four hundred and forty-four moons after the year of the Locus, a saviour will arrive, a child born of both Heaven and Earth, a champion.

Meryre was born on Cymtetri, which sat at the very edge of the Orion Galaxy. She is known as the community's healer, the one you go to when the city's hospitals turn you away… A trusted member of the community.

But when the Heavenly Officials turn their eyes to her, that very same community turns its back.
