Catalonia and Basque Country: The History and Legacy of the Autonomous Communities in Spain
SPREAD THE RUMOR. STOP THE GODDESS. Long ago, this world was created by the God and Goddess (Alpha and Omega). They also created humans, giants, and isles that orbit around the earth. Alpha killed Omega and used her body parts to shape the land of each island nation. The bloodshed continues throughout history. In a world built on the broken body of this long dead Goddess, empires rise through the propagandistic power of genocides disguised as religious crusades. Even the giants were all but wiped out during this time. One ancient empire, Ur, is ready to conquer the greatest giant of all: the world! Now, a young princess is hunted by that same empire. Follow the struggles of this princess, Ilene, as her nation goes to war with a power mad empress and witness how the young girl comes of age amidst this time of turmoil. Ilene is accused by the enemy state of being the long prophesied spiritual vessel for the dread Goddess- whose cursed vengeance will bring about the end of the world! Ilene must survive the war, avenge old friends, preserve her public image, reconcile with her past, and emerge triumphant- all while going through a young adult's growing pains. The rumor will spread, and so will the empress's power. Can the young princess overcome a world that rapidly turns against her? Or will she fall as Omega did before Alpha? Despite being labeled an all-powerful and devious deity, her enemies quickly destroy everything she's ever loved as she's utterly powerless to stop it. This is how she fights back.
