Twin Daggers

STATUSWORK-IN-PROGRESS

A fan­tasy twist on Romeo & Juliet, if Juliet were a magic-wielding spy infil­trat­ing the tech­nocrats who wiped out her race.

Aissa and Zan­dria are the only magi born after the Techno-Magi wars who have adapted. Unlike nor­mal magi, their magic can affect more than just organic mat­ter — it can con­trol the machines. They’ve been hid­ing with their par­ents their whole lives in the Tech­no­crat coun­try of Pali­nor as part of a spy net­work called the Armory. Their mis­sion is to seek out the Magi’s lost library rumored to be buried beneath Palinor’s palace com­plex. They must hide who they are from the Tech­nocrats, and what they are from the other Magi. But when a rogue Techno prince finds them where they shouldn’t be, and Aissa finds him far more intrigu­ing than she should, all their loy­al­ties are tested.
