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

The setting for the day's battle was crowded hours before the fight was actually set to begin. Unlike the city-bridges of Storspann, there was only a single structure at the center of this relatively small bridge, a massive courthouse whose central clock tower was frozen with both hands at the bottom of the mechanism.

Along the front of the building was a sandbag wall that rose to two stories in height and possibly a half-kilometer in length. A similar setup had been placed on the opposite length of the bridge, and the profusion of cameras and press members with a plethora of international flags and colors was enough to give Zai pause. Before, she'd felt the duel was a formality. She would keep as many of her secrets as possible while beating the Third Lightning. Now she felt she had to win.
