I was always fascinated by the idea of magic as a limited resource, and that ended up becoming the backbone of the story. Usually, magic is this infinite thing a character can draw upon, and sure, there are rules or ways to go about it, but the limitations are on the characters, not on the magic itself.
A blessing can become a curse when there's not enough of it to go around, and those used to it, suddenly deprived may find themselves angry about it. Or what about those who were never offered it in the first place? How can you build a whole city on the idea of being united when wielding the one thing that divides everyone and puts you on top? Read on and find out! From here on, it's all prose!
In a post-human world, all the Fae now live openly, with no place more prominent than the great city of Santa Fae. There, the elf Sherry; the black sheep of the Royal Knights, will try to solve a murder that unravels a bigger conspiracy against the Highborn and the gift of magic! Batman meets Lord Of The Rings in this fantasy crime story! A badass woman on a mission with swords, a dragon boss, supervillains, and overcoming deep tragedy at its core!
NOTE: Structure-wise, just FYI, the story of Book One will be divided into 6 Parts, each with 5 Chapters, each set starting with a flashback, and ending with one from the POV of a main villain.

NOTE: I had written the first few chapters a few years back, but working with my therapist, she advised me to try writing again and it has helped me a lot, so, I'm going to try and finish it here over time. I don't know if I'll write anything else, but I want to at least try and finish one story. If you happen to find it, I hope you enjoy it.
