Timeline:
Summary: Since the dawn of time, the Sword, spawned by darkness, has tried again and again to send the universe back to the nothingness from whence it came. The Shield, its counterpart, came into being with one purpose: to stop the Sword. The Shield and Sword have been locked in an unbroken cycle of death and rebirth since their first battle millennia ago. Every few centuries, the Sword returns to Earth, the first epicenter of life, to wreak destruction and the Shield awakens in response. As their battle raged on, the Sword and Shield weakened, forcing them to use hosts to continue. One-hundred thousand years ago, they formed a permanent bond with their perfect hosts: human beings. In the present day, a little girl named Amy Sanders miraculously survives a horrific car crash that kills her parents. On her 16th birthday, her powers as the newly reincarnated Shield began to blossom, ending life as she knows it. Amy learns that she was born simply to be another sacrifice in this age-old battle; Amy was born to die. |
Can Amy fight destiny? Or will she and the mysterious Connor Callaghan, the reincarnated Sword, perish together like those that came before them?
