Jenna
I quietly close my door, so my parents don’t hear. If I could even call them that. They regulate my every move and keep me locked up in my room all the time. They’re not my real parents. Thank goodness for that. They are my foster parents, who I’m pretty sure hate me.
I only stay with them because they pay for my school and food. As soon as I have a good job, you can consider me gone. I don’t understand them. And right now, I’m focused on getting to Nova’s house. I grab their keys and shut the front door.
As I’m driving, I wonder what Nova could need. Probably just want to talk. My thoughts shift to the others. Our friend group is drastically unique; Solace, who comforts everyone, but rarely talks about herself. The only thing I know about her is that she takes care of her younger sister in their little apartment and that she is claustrophobic. She seldom speaks up, and when she does, it only lasts a millisecond. Then there’s Quinn. He adores Nova. Anyone can tell that, unfortunately, except her. And on top of that, there’s Michael. Nova says their perfect for each other, but he dampens her unique energy. She changes (for the worse) when he comes in.
I think Quinn would be perfect for her, and it would help get rid of the way he looks at her when he thinks no one is watching him. And then there’s Reagen. Nova cares so much about him and loves him so much, but he doesn’t want to burden her with his life troubles too. He hates himself because he cries so much and the kids at his school treat him like trash.
And I can’t even start on myself, but I love how we all have something in common. Losing our parents. I guess we all are a little messed up. I pull into Nova’s driveway, and the rest are already there. I open the door and sit down, and Nova gathers our attention. “So… guys.” She begins. I notice that Reagen is sitting with us. She looks at him periodically. I am very confused. Nova rarely talks to Reagen when we are there. He looks at me with an expression that confuses me more; part grimace, part curiosity, part wariness. I know nothing good can come out of this talk.

The world that lies beyond the walls involves the social segregation between humans and Haaras. Haaras are people with the ability to control elements of water, air and earth, whilst humans cannot obtain this power at all.

However, after many reoccurences throughout her childhood in which she hears the voices of people that speak in the future, she has doubts about who she really is inside. The same phenomenon happens when she is 15 years-old, but this time the voices she hears alerts her of a future attack that will happen to the people of her village. When the time had come, Reefa and her friends escape their predicament and travel to the east towards the land of dragons known as Tetranazia. Bearing in mind the last words her aunt told her with a heavy heart, she must protect her friends from the dangers ahead and venture into the walls to search for the answers of the attack. This is an original English light novel (OELN). There will be several visuals of characters and world-building as you read this novel. The story's genre is mainly Shonen-influenced Josei and Fantasy. Do note that the story is slow-paced in development, so it might not be to your liking. I'll be updating 2 new chapters every month on the 25th (SGT).(I'm doing it monthly because I have to consider the pile of college workload I have (;_;) and I'll need extra time on drawing the illustrations) Occasionally, I'll do Bonus Releases, where I release more than 2 chapter in the next monthly update Feel free to give me feedback on my story. I will very much appreciate it! (ノ´∀`) I created this story on Scribble Hub, so you can also check it out over at their platform.
