"In this world, no one is innocent. Death comes for us all."Vic was twelve when the Combatants invaded Rainshyre, her home, and took power. Ever since then, she’s been fighting to free her people. At nineteen, she's the leader of the rebellion, and a damn good one. Even with all her knowledge and experience, she loses hope for winning the war every day. When most of her rebels are captured by the Combatants, she escapes to another country to find allies. Instead, she comes across a golden gateway, one leading to another realm. There, she meets Tori, her doppelganger. Tori is still dealing with the grief of her father’s death, even three years later, and struggling to put up with her neglectant mother. She longs for an escape. She just didn’t expect to find it in a war from a different realm. When she meets Vic, she swears to do anything to help her people, even if it involves signing up for a war that has nothing to do with her. Soon, she is covered in blood, her morals twisted in a way that can’t be undone, but she refuses to let the people of the First Realm suffer. She’ll keep fighting, no matter the cost.
