Grieving Amaryllis: Mirrors and Shadows

By Dana Krystle

In City-A, a metropolis meticulously designed by her own father, architect David Voronin, Ravenna Voronin lives under the iron fist of Saint August. This isn't just any city-it's a place of brutal hierarchy, ruled by families who claim direct descent from Prophets.

Day and night, relentless raids purge the "unholy"-anyone without a documented prophetic lineage-enforcing a chilling, inherited purity. Saint August's will is absolute, carried out by generals: the ruthless Black Monarch and the stoic White Monarch.

Ravenna's quiet, serene life near the ocean shatters when she discovers a mysterious young man, washed ashore and near death. His identity is unknown, but his very presence promises to unravel not only Ravenna's carefully constructed world but also the dark truths hidden within City-A itself. Her destiny, she soon learns, will be altered by his arrival.

As Ravenna delves into the stranger's secrets, she's pulled into a dangerous web of deceit, hidden truths, and melancholy. Her journey will force her to confront profound loss and challenge the tyrannical purges against innocent people that have long defined her city.

But in a world built on lineage and lies, betrayal looms at every turn, threatening heartbreak. Can Ravenna and the mysterious young man defy the powerful forces that seek to control City-A, or will their quest for understanding and change cost them everything?
