The Children Of Sagittarius

By Drew Beck

When the Fold collapses, Lysa Hale and her crew awaken in a world that should not exist. The sky is unfamiliar, the ground pulses with faint lines of light, and the silence feels alive. What begins as disorientation soon becomes something far more dangerous. The Atlanteans, an ancient civilisation that once tried to transcend their physical forms, left behind a legacy that never died. Their final experiment created a parasite that reshapes memory, identity and time itself, and its influence still lingers in the ruins of their world.

Lysa carries a remnant of it inside her. A seed. A living fragment of the Origin that should have been destroyed. It hums beneath her skin, responding to the landscape and to something deep within her that she does not yet understand. As the seed wakes, Lysa begins to see possibilities that do not belong to her. Futures that shift and fracture. Versions of herself that she does not recognise.

Ren is unraveling beside her. His body flickers between moments that never happened, memories that are not his, and futures that should not exist. Each pulse of the new world pulls him further from reality. Jax, once human, now stands between states, neither alive nor gone, shaped by the same force that threatens to consume them all.

The new world watches them in silence. The ground responds to Lysa's presence. The structure on the horizon opens for her alone. The seed inside her grows stronger with every step she takes, and the truth becomes impossible to ignore. The Atlanteans did not simply create a parasite. They created a design. A blueprint for evolution. A path that Lysa is now being pushed toward.

To survive, she must confront the legacy of the Atlanteans and the truth of what the parasite wants. She must decide whether to destroy the last trace of the Origin or become something it can never control. The choice is impossible. If she destroys the seed, Ren will die. If she lets it grow, she risks becoming the very thing she fought against.

In a landscape shaped by ancient mistakes and shifting realities, Lysa must choose who she is and who she refuses to become. Her decision will determine not only her own fate, but the future of the world she has entered and the people she refuses to lose.

The Children of Sagittarius is a haunting, atmospheric story of transformation, survival and the cost of rewriting what was never meant to be rewritten. It blends psychological tension with ancient science, exploring the fragile line between identity and evolution. For readers who enjoy quiet dread, emotional depth and worlds that feel both alien and intimate, this novel offers a journey that lingers long after the final page.
