Synopsis
Penelope Morris was just a normal girl with a quiet life until the day before her seventeenth birthday when she found herself transported to the magical world of Cygnus, summoned as one of the twelve Chosen Heroes who arise to protect the Felis Empire every fifty years.
Oftentimes heroes who are ripped from their lives and forced into their new roles are reluctant to say the least, but that couldn't be further from the truth for Penelope. Instead she leaps into this exciting new world head on, exploring the abundance of magical wonders around her as well as her newfound powers and abilities with more eagerness than she had ever thought possible. Finding new powers and friendships in her adventures, Penelope couldn't be happier.
But all the while a dark cloud lurks on the horizon, and each day she hears about new far-off cataclysms and natural disasters wreaking havoc upon the world. Yet not a single person around her seems to find their ravaged world the least bit odd. Penelope can't help but wonder about the state of things outside the small Temple where she's been trained. Is Cygnus really quite the idyllic fantasy world she'd first imagined? Or is there something darker beneath the surface?
Something that might threaten to shatter everything she's found in her new life to pieces.
This story takes a slower, classic fantasy approach to litRPG elements, focusing on characters primarily over action. Any and all constructive feedback is appreciated!
