“[Theta] clenched his hand again, stepping back into a pool of blood that had formed on the ground from his injury. He sank down into its depths as it glowed pale tangerine and reappeared on top of Warehouse 12 from a gate he had placed there weeks ago. He stared down at them all from his new height in fury. “I’ve spent all of my lives trying to make it so that children who’ve been used and abandoned could have at least some chance at a hopeful future. All this time I’ve spent reading through all of the records, I’ve thought—even though I knew it wasn’t enough—that we’d made at least a little bit of a difference.” The winds howled around him as he tore open all of his gates with a snap of his wrist. “But how were things when I came to this era?!” He gripped his abdomen as it throbbed with phantom pain, and his voice cracked. “Children continue to suffer! Exploited for your petty wars, for your pocket change!” Memories clashed together in a cacophony in his mind. Memories of extending out a hand to pat the head of a small child huddling at the very corner of an alleyway. Memories of spending hours and hours pouring through articles detailing the casualties of the Reservoir War. The displaced, the murdered, the orphans, the uncounted. Memories of himself cowering beneath the rage of his father. Memories of taking to the streets to pickpocket alongside Cadence and Nico on an empty stomach as adults turned a blind eye. And all of these memories clashed with— —memories of himself extending a hand out to Matilda as he hired her to deliver conductor parts. Memories of signing off on a lease to convert buildings street orphans had used as home into warehouses to temporarily store shipped conductors. Memories of himself chuckling alongside one of his hired men who had served as a child soldier in the war. Watching as that man gleefully beat an adolescent within an inch of her life because she had stolen from them. Memories of him watching Matilda coercing her friends and the younger street children to follow on behind her in her shipping business. “They suffer and suffer and grow up only to cause more children to suffer!” He panted heavily, heaved. They had been right. They had been right from the very beginning. A senseless cycle. “And you…” Theta glowered down at all the cowering peacekeepers, at all the leaders of the criminal organizations. “You all just stand by and watch, acting like it can’t be helped, turning your eyes away because it’s easier!” He staggered forward, gritting his teeth. “You could’ve helped them! Saved them!” They all stared at him silently, wordlessly, looking at him as if he was some immovable object, as if he was the obstacle they needed to overcome instead of their own negligence and carelessness. Theta couldn’t help but chuckle at the sight. What was even the point? Even if they helped the children now, the children had already suffered so much. And those children would simply transfer their suffering onto other children. Once it began, there was no stopping it. Over and over. In an endless cycle. He couldn’t take the failure any longer. They really had been right. He flicked his injured hand outwards, and an arc of red rained down on all those below. “There really is no hope.”

— Theta, The Illusionary Six (Six Chances)

Plot: “What would you do if your life, memories, and feelings were suddenly tied to another person?” Six people. One life.

A spoiled prince haunted by a ghost. A big city swindler with a knack for illusions. A cold soldier with a sharp eye. A pirate with a few screws loose. A chieftain’s bookish daughter with carefully bandaged hands. A peacekeeping agent with an eye for vengeance.

After simultaneously knocking on death’s door, these six find themselves psychically connected across national lines. Tensions rise between them and between their respective countries, which are recovering from a long war over the mysterious vitae—an energy source harvested and utilized in weapons and engines called conductors. Loyalty, memory, and sense of self blur as conspiracies encroach.

Assassination attempts, a border conflict, a missing peacekeeping agent, a bar shootout, a tale of a bloodthirsty beast, and the terrorist organization ELPIS.

—Everything is connected. Nothing is coincidental. The spark has ignited…!

“Admiration and dreams’re only mirages. The closer ya get, the more reality seeps in. ‘Course that doesn’t mean, ya shouldn’t go after ‘em. That’s what bein’ alive is all about.”

“Your dedication points to the effort you’ve made to change. That is something to be commended in itself.”

Twelve signs, twelve nations. The continent of Signum was founded by the Ancestors almost five hundred years ago. Its people now harvest the mysterious vitae to power their weapons and engines; a limited energy source for which one of the bloodiest wars in history has been fought. In the aftermath of the conflict, peace seems to reign. But when six people simultaneously knock on death’s door, they find themselves psychically connected across national lines … and in the middle of a worldwide conspiracy. Loyalty, memory, and sense of self blur as tensions between countries rise once again. Assassination attempts, a border conflict, a missing peacekeeping agent, a bar shootout, a tale of a bloodthirsty beast, and the terrorist organization ELPIS.

The Twin Cities is a place of duality where good coexists with evil. Cadence Morello is adept at this balancing act which is why she has taken to her psychic connection with a prince, a soldier, a mysterious pirate, a former chieftain’s daughter, and a peacekeeper quite well. It has almost been like a dream. However, in this city of illusion, reality cracks along the daydream. Love blurs into hate. Past into present. Selflessness into selfishness. Acceptance to vengeance.

The fragments appear: a reunion with a loved one, a locked cave murder mystery, underground negotations, a limitless bounty, a citywide war, encounters with True Conductors, and the reemergence of ELPIS. The illusion has shattered. It is time to face reality.

The bets have been set. The cards have been played. Now all that’s left is to watch the dominoes fall. The secret of ELPIS is finally revealed, and the truth lies close to the heart.
