"Life happens. What you do with it while you're here helps shape the rest, but when all your sand is in the bottom of the hourglass, Lady Elysian is coming for you. No matter about fate, chance, or destiny... Look, if you absolutely have to follow a predestined path, though I don't know why you would, go ahead. Just remember that they only gave you the destination at the end. They didn't tell you what you had to do on your way." Meet Anya, found by her adoptive Ma, Saria, in the forest's edge of a distant shore beside the body of her tortured and dead mother. She was an outcast from the moment Saria took her to her home village because Anya is, well, different. Pointed ears, slit-pupiled blue eyes, and a tail do tend to throw people off, not to mention the retractable claws and clawed feet. When everyone thinks she's a freak, growing up isn't easy, what with one bully or another trying to kill her on a daily basis. But she grows up strong, smart, agile, and fair. She has her faithful Lyrra cat, Little Brother, by her side and her Ma's support and love. One day the Mother Goddess appears to her with a member of the race that Anya didn't even know she belonged to, with a tale of death, ensorceled souls, and the last peoples of a dwindling race slowly being wiped out. When Anya is told that it is her destiny to stop this, well, Anya doesn't really care for the destiny part, but the sheer injustice of it all strikes a chord in her heart, and she knows she must help. Not because of a destiny. Especially not because of a destiny.
