Sea Spirits:

The ocean off of Natacoast is sentient, made up of countless spirits. These spirits are in an endless cycle of reincarnation with the residents of Natacoast (as well as Hasket)

It follows the pattern that a sea spirit will incarnate into a newly born human, and when that human dies the spirit returns to the sea, and will eventually incarnate again.

In sea form, they retain memories from every incarnation. Spirits have complex social bonds with eachother, despite lacking corporeal form, or even an actual society.

Spirits are by default genderless, although the lives they live may impact how they ultimately view themselves.

Important Spirits:

The 2 sea spirits with an integral role to the story are Kat and Camilla Nova. They are sibling spirits incarnated into twin bodies.

What makes them different from typical incarnations of other spirits is that they were not born into these bodies, but instead occupied them after the origional girls tragic deaths. This means that as opposed to being mostly human, they mantain the memories and mannerisms a spirit would typically have out in the water.

This is soon revealed to not be unique, as an increasing number of spirits begin to occupy lives already partially lived, throwing off the balance of human and sea spirits.

The cause of this is connected to the same mysterious figure attempting to become a god that is central to the overall plot

ok so changes. Elaina -> Sierra; Alex -> Lewis

Tassle -> Kat; Cassandra -> Camilla

[evil-tboys]

ok so. Theo.

When we first meet him he is about 5 years old. He can make things move with his mind but he has to be aware of every component in order to make them work properly. Like if he was trying to make a watch tick he has to be aware of and making all the gears move. He makes components (especially gears) move which is the biggest limitation. also that he’s 5 years old.

he greatly enjoys playing with toy cars and other wind up toys with his powers.

oh yeah also he theoretically could control living things but since he has to control every single part it doesn’t turn out well. Has to pump blood and breath and move every joint and flex every muscles. Something Something tragic backstory.

He gets older over the course of the story but is still just a kid. 7 years old and tried to eat plastic wrappers on several occasions.

Over time he gets better at using these powers, and is able to easily control several components of devices. 

After Sierra’s death he starts to lose control of his abilities from grief and is unable to do what he once could and randomly messes up machines around him. Around the same time, people begin to die of strange causes, as if they just forgot to continue breathing. This all happens over a few weeks, and eventually these incidents stop as he starts to cope with the loss.

Once Lewis joins up with the main gang, they learn just how much chaos these deaths had caused within the government.

feel like writing about blessed. so Charlie “Ace of Spades” (everyone calls him ace.)

He is human, and has no supernatural abilities, something that is very common to have to some extent (maybe like 60% percent of kids. this is something that has cropped up in this generation, so there are very few adults with such abilities, even with those no humans with powers are over 25), even if its just small solely aesthetic abilities. (maybe twenty percent of kids with powers have ‘cool’ powers like Sierra(photographic memory in a headspace) or Theo(can control move simple machines with his mind) versus being able to change hair and eye color at will or grow and retract their nails a little bit like claws/)

He’s lived in the outer parts of town all his life. He was raised by his mom until she died when he was 10. After that he went to live with his dad (who doesn’t know that he’s his dad, just a friend of his mom.)

Before this, his dad had taught him how to play card games, and how to cheat at them. He also taught him magic tricks and other sleight of hand.

when he was thirteen, he moved out to sort of just start living independently. (I’ll elaborated later on the worldbuilding of the city, but the communities in the outskirts closer to the beach are almost entirely self sufficient and hostile towards the government. Everyone knows everyone in the neighborhood and its totally normal for a kid to move out by basically living in a tent, starting a garden, and receiving support from the rest of the community)

When he was fifteen he met Kat and Camilla Nova, twins (who i am trying to still figure out the specifics of their past but were basically Isekai ‘d into their current bodies in this city/general society) who are definitely not human, and know something about the cities government that the government doesn’t want anyone to know.

With this, they set off on a journey, and a few months later meet Sierra, and with this the story begins.

Nearer to the end (in like the second half of the story) a romance develops between him and Cascade, a murder of crows who can morph into a single human body (but with feathers instead of hair) and is trying to live life as an individual (but still plural) member of society. In the epilogue, the two are in a long-term relationship.

anyways you know what main characters

Sierra: the initial protagonist. Her parents had been working in the shadows fighting against the government. After her sister Cassidy ran away to join the military her parents went into overdrive on their work. As she tries to cope with the stress and fear from all of this, as well as the struggles of day to day life, she finds herself spending less and less time existing in the same way she used to. She finds herself entering a large white room within herself full of filing cabinets. Within them are memories. 

Everything she had ever seen or felt or done or known. Filed away. These don’t act memories, as so much of it she isn’t connected to in the same way she is to her memories. As she delves deeper and deeper through the halls, she finds a file of a life she knew wasn’t here own. And as soon as she closed the drawer, she suddenly knew what this was. She was the next archive keeper. She now bears the burdens of not only her life, but this other mysterious girl and her incomprehensibly organized memories.

The next day she comes home from school to find the apartment in complete disarray and her parents nowhere to be found. And so now, knowing the burden of the archives, she runs.  And this is where the story begins.

She was Sierra Elaine, also known as The Knight by other children. The Knight of the archive, the second archive keeper of the current cycle. She beared the life and memories of not only herself, but as girl whose name has been whispered for the past 20 years as a sign of hope. A sign of hope that they thought had been lost forever. Andrea, The sunrise of the archive, and the first record keeper of what might be the last cycle.

The City of Natacoast

Natacoast (nay-TOH-coast) is a city state to the east of the country of Hasket (Has-ket) Roughly 100 years before the story begins, it fought and declared independence from Hasket. However, in the past 50 years, Natacoast has developed a good relationship with Hasket. Because of Natacoast’s location, Hasket is the only country capable of directly trading with them.

Natacoast consists of three districts, which have their own district's and individual communities.

The Epicenter: The Epicenter is located on the border of Natacoast and Hasket. It has the most active economy, and is the only part of Natacoast that the government has any control over. It is the smallest district in terms of size, and has roughly the same population as The Outskirts.

The Epicenter has three subdistricts; The Core, North Owlside, and South Owlside. The Core is where the government and research is located.

The Outskirts: The Outskirts are by far the largest section of Natacoast. The Outskirts has roughly the same population as The Epicenter, however they are spread out into many communities throughout all of The Outskirts. 

The Outskirts have too many individual communities to list all of them, however some notable ones are: Lockfrieght, where Ace comes from; Mistrise, where Cascade is first met; Francisville, a community located almost entirely in an abandoned shopping mall; New Owlside; Riverside, a community that consists almost entirely of runaways from The Epicenter; And Oscarslick, where a man who is trying to build a boat to leave Natacoast from from the Shoreline.

The Shoreline: The Shoreline is located to the far east of Natacoast. It is almost impossible for anyone from the government to reach because they would have to pass through The Outskirts, which puts them in danger of attacks by the residents of The Outskirts. The Shoreline is the smallest section of Natacoast, both in size and population. The ocean, nicknamed ‘The Escapist Sea’ is the only way to leave Natacoast without having to past the heavily watched and guarded boarders into Hasket.

There are several small communities, most of which are made up of a few families. The sea goes out very far, to the point where it would be impossible to get anywhere with the kinds of boats that can be had in The Shoreline. Boats are fairly common, to the point where pretty much every family has one, mainly for fishing purposes. 

But just because you can’t find any land when you go out on the sea doesn’t mean their isn’t anything beneath the surface.

The Epicenter

The Epicenter is the center of the city of Natacoast. It is located right near the border of Natacoast and Hasket.

The Epicenter consists of three main sections: The Core, Northern Owlside, and Southern Owlside. Residents of the Epicenter usually shorten it to Nowl and Sowl.

ID: A roughly drawn map. On the left (West) there is a country called Hasket. it is separated from the Epicenter by a somewhat wavy line. On the other side, in the middle of that line is a half circle labeled “The Core”. It is surrounded by another semi-circle, bisected by a line drawn from the middle of The Core. The upper segment is labelled “North Owlside” and the bottom is labeled “South Owlside.” To the left of that (east) is a large area simply labeled “The Outskirts“

Rough Map of the Epicenter.

All imports and exports from Hasket has to come through The Epicenter, and are controlled by the government. Resources are distributed by the government, throughout The Epicenter, mostly to stores or distribution centers.

Because of the distance from The Core, where the government is based, to The Outskirts, much fewer resources are distributed there. Those that are typically non-perishable, things that can be reused, or things such as plants and livestock. For this same reason, the government has significantly less control in The Outskirts. Because of this, they want to keep as many people as possible in The Epicenter. Most people who run away to The Outskirts/The Shoreline are children, because they do not want to live in the dystopian environment. The Government tries to keep people from leaving to there, but cannot logistically hunt people down once they have made it there.

because of the urban environment, they have to import almost all foods, mainly from Hasket.

The Core:

The Core is where the government of Natacoast is based. Very few people live there, and instead it is largely offices and research facilities. Most people who work there live nearby in the Owlsides. The only people who live there are the highest figures in the government, and people who are considered to know ‘Too Much’ and might potentially share information. Those people are not allowed to leave The Core. Some of these people are the higher up scientists, who fully know the purpose of the research, and those who work to keep such information from the public.

The main focus of their research relates to The Archive, as a result of the incredible psychic powers contained within the physical manifestations of previous cycles. This power can only be harnessed by an Archive Keeper, and while the government is trying to find the Archive Keeper, there are too many people in Natacoast for them to be easy to find.

ok so blessed is about children finding family with eachother once they can no longer return home for whatever reason. They have to try their hardest to survive and take care of eachother as ominous forces loom over their society. Also theirs a bunch of supernatural powers and such. and a guy who is actually a murder of crows who can combine into one mostly human body but their not actually one of the main characters.
