Ascendant: Struggle

Zai, a soldier, and her squad live a life of brutal hit-and-run operations and training the people of Aviye to resist the will of the Hegemons that divided her nation. When a beautiful defector falls into her lap, the terrible secret of how the Hegemony creates its Ascendants, powerful warriors wielding powers only a few understand, is revealed, as well as a lost path to the same power. As Zai and Amri struggle to understand the truth of the path, deadly enemies and even divisions within their own people must be overcome. Yet in the shadows of the Hegemony lurks an enemy far older and more powerful than even they can imagine. -------- I invite you to consider my other works if you are interested: https://www.webnovel.com/book/the-demon-lord-is-an-angel_28486713700592205#review I also have a Discord if you want to communicate with me directly: https://discord.gg/ksJ8dJup4d Special thanks to SapphoAndHerFriend for her support and help with the cover.

"Let's try the sequence again," Zai instructed, and Rui put her hands on the etched plate that had been provided for her.

"I'm trying. The damn thing's busted, I say." Rui growled and tried to do the instructions Zai had repeated to her.

Rui would have liked to have a week off after returning to the Center, but almost instantly she was back to training and, true to her word, she'd dragged Finn along.

"You need to relax more. Let your qi get to where it's going," Finn tried to help. "But also keep it on the nexus plate. It's like... loosening up, but in a way that's still tightly bound to the nexus board."

Zai frowned as her plate warped and melted when she tried. "I think I'm going to need another."
