For more than a third of a century, three old women, known by many names over the millennia, but most commonly referred to as the Fates, have had total power over mankind. They have been busy, fiendishly initiating conflict and misfortune. Such is the will of the all-seeing, all-knowing Fates. No simple undertaking can change the dismal state of affairs, and no ordinary people, either.
At the heart of a defiant scheme to counter fate’s trespasses is a special pair of siblings and a mystical object. One of the siblings must have the ability to manipulate the Golden Quill, a supernatural feather used to literally write a better future for all. The other sibling requires the physical prowess to protect both the Writer and the age-old implement.
The arduous search for such an exceptional duo ends at this story’s beginning. Cassandra and Zuzanna Merit have been identified as the best candidates for success. Gifted though they are, nothing should be taken for granted. Their quirky sense of humour and mischievous (bordering on devious!) ways are already cause for concern. Time will tell if their shared and individual traits will help or hinder the adventures upon which collective and individual free will depend.
If these talented teens are to turn the tide of history, they will have to overcome extraordinary obstacles in mythical places and dream spaces. The fight for tomorrow begins today.
Where there is a will, there is a way.
