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.

The Ascendants of Fire and Water had coordinated their attacks to keep Zai on the defensive. Zai had fought within those limits, and the heat and movement had carved out a hole in the avalanche of snow that gave her some weapons in the form of boulders.

She tossed one at the Ascendant of Fire's face as he approached her confidently.

He caught it with one hand, holding it off to the side like a large ball, one that was growing red with heat.

"So, you think you can take me all by your lonesome?" Zai said through her speakers. The low battery warning was sounding, three chirps that would get progressively slower and lower as the power ran out, until they stopped.
