[Book 1] Plight of The Winged: First Sequence (Plight Of The Winged Trilogy)

By Oliver Jean

For countless centuries the species known as nymphs obtained divine creation and destruction only described as magic of gods, filled with inescapable power. This winged species used to be so desired, it was only a matter of time before the source started being hunted by the less fortunate. Thus the maze of facilities was born, thriving on their experiments and surgeries, DNA and genetics rewritten with time to suit others needs. August loved his siblings, his sister, and even his more than distant mother. He clung onto the family he had left, especially as they began getting taken, mysteriously vanishing into the forbidden hallways of the facility. August was ordered to treasure the life in front of him, if it was anything at all. The cement walls, the barred windows, and the cold metal collars were all a blessing of protection, tools that kept the nymph species in order. At least that's what he was told. August's siblings tried to shield him from the truth, but after August began to age up, his sister knew he couldn't be protected for much longer. That's how it started, a malnourished magical creature alone in the woods, suddenly in possession of powers that had been sought after by mortals, yet so shunned by those who controlled the species. Or perhaps it started with a boy coming across that creature, surprised and intrigued about his discovery, a meeting providing hope to both sides, whether or not they'd like to admit it. As August learns more about the truth of his home and of his kind, he joins up with a rebellion, an organization working to end the oppression and abuse of the facilities, all behind their backs until the perfect moment. Between hunting down each facility, chasing vengeance, learning to control his magic, and developing feelings for the very boy who found him, August risks everything he's ever loved in order to save it.
