Phantasy: Duty Before Love
Preface
Chapter One
Rough Draft Summary For Series: Eons ago our world was not as it is now. Hundreds of species covered the globe, and thousands of races from each of those: elves, humans, dragons, and many more. Many of them thrived on in a time of peace brought on by the crowning of the High King of Elysian and his Balancers--those chosen by The Lady of Fate to ensure that no war ever occurred again that was as devastating as the Great War of Tears. However, peace only lasts so long. A dark force called only by Leviathan began to take root, rumored to have come into existence when the planet was first created. Balancers were scattered and the High King wrought with despair, unable to fully meet the threat.
One by one they fell... Leviathan took over, chaining the Lady of Fate, and thereby changing our world into that which it has become.
Gaea, goddess of all creation and lifeblood of the planet, took drastic measures and ordered the fallen guardians be reincarnated into another future time so that might have another chance at defeating the dark being.
Book Summary: Morgan Dimarco has daydreams; not typical daydreams; not the kind where you space out and blink away the sleep. More like... hallucinations. For brief measures of time she is transported to another place, another world, and when she comes back she's sometimes worse for wear. Half the time she'd like them to go away entirely, as rare as they are; the other half... she can't imagine being without them. She can't quite imagine missing out on little pieces, stories, of a place she knows can't be real... can it? Surely it would be better to go without them entirely, especially when her heart aches over a love that doesn't exist. At least it didn't until the very love she's been aching over, or someone who looks just like him, walks into her life.
Julian Blake is content; content to live off his trust fund and enjoy whatever comes. Insofar as his father is concerned? That's not a good place to be. Not that Julian cares, or so he tells himself. The old man hasn't really been apart of his life since his mother died; and when he was it was only to tear him down. Why do something you love when the person you admires most only reminds you of how you should do it better; reminds you of how you aren't the absolute best? It best just not to bother at all, right? But Michael Blake has finally had enough and forces his son into whatever menial task he can throw at him. In the process Julian finds himself face to face with a destiny, with a former life, and with a someone he never imagined facing at all.
Expectations: I'm going to try and post chapters once a week or as I finish them. I'd like feedback, if at all possible. Feel free to post it here and be critical. I may not take all opinions, but I will not discount them or argue. If you have questions please let me know you want them answered and discussed so I can make my writing better. This is a book I plan on publishing sometime next year. You are all writers in your own right, or at the very least readers; your opinion matters. Plus, getting feedback will encourage me to write more and get my shit done. Thanks so much. Also, the summaries are very rough. VERY ROUGH. If you have opinions about those, especially after all of the story is posted, please give me feedback.
Sometimes I feel like a girl~... sometimes I don't~
