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.

Zai

Though the days that followed weren't all bliss, they got much better after Amri and Zai shared their thoughts.

Then came the day of the court-martial.

Zai was called the day before and learned that the proceedings had been moved from the base Judicial Office to the Tenth Starday Building. Instead of allowing Amri to drive her, a trio of military vehicles arrived, black sedans into which Zai and her family were driven off the base.

As she sat in the car with Yue and Amri, Zai's concerns started to mount. Amri felt her concerns, and sent over pulses of reassurance, but as they drove off the base and neared their destination, Amri's touch on Zai's mind started to wane. Until...

"Something's wrong..." Amri said. "There's anger ahead of us."

"What do you mean?" Zai asked.
