Do you like stories with extensive worldbuilding? Plots to take down tyrannical deities? Ancient prophecies? Secret societies? Faulty magic? Chaos? If so, you may want to read Polarized, a story about a girl with ice powers who wants to become a mage in a country where magic is illegal— or at least that was what it was supposed to be about. But somehow a rich kid who got kidnapped by accident, an illusion mage with a talent for lying, a big angry metal dude holding a grudge against a flightless flying lizard dude with a liking for arson, the flightless flying lizard-dude’s androgynous psychic owl babysitter, a gossip girl with telepathic powers, a workaholic healer, a wannabe-healer-turned-serial-manslaughterer, religious zealots, and magical flower drugs have all found their way into the mix. Don't ask how it happened, just read. Or don't. It's your choice, really. What to expect: -fantasy setting with modern-day technology, set in an alternate version of Earth -progression elements— MC works to improve her abilities as a mage -female MC, but the narrative switches between multiple POVs with other characters, both female and male, getting their fair share of the story being told in their POV as well -multiple installments/"books" under this work; separate chapters will be dedicated to cover art and individual blurbs for each part of the story, and chapter numbers will reflect both book and chapter (example: 1.10 means book 1, chapter 10) -yes, there will be romance. Yes, some of the pairings will be between characters of the same gender -possible isekai plot in later chapters. Oh, and the story may also take a more psychological turn Current update scheduele: Chapters every Tuesday and Thursday at 12pm EST.
