Description: [edit] [history]

This is the story of a young witch in an alternative version of the roman empire where magic is a thing. The Roman Empire is in decline but would not collapse.

It was just a dream of mine that I wasn't confident to turn into a novel. So I decided to make it an experiment with chatGPT. So it is a 50/50 co-writing between myself and a AI.

So this is an experiment more than an actual novel. But the universe is 100% mine and I would rewrite it as a proper novel if the early chapter get any audience whatsoever.

Summary:

In a grimdark fantasy world, in the city of Venetia, Melianna, a young woman with secret witch abilities, conceals her powers from her friends and family. She pretends to be chosen as a mage, fearing the consequences of revealing her true nature. As she embarks on a journey to the imperial war academy in Rome, Melianna's simple life is left behind, replaced by challenges that test her self-confidence and survival skills.

On the ship to Rome, Melianna forms a bond with Captain Aurelius Pertinax, who becomes her mentor and guides her through the intricacies of ship life. The crew initially harbors skepticism towards Melianna, but her dedication and determination earn their respect over time.

Throughout her journey, Melianna yearns for her old life, her family, and her friends. She reflects on the choices she has made and the path she has taken, torn between her desire for acceptance and the looming darkness of her powers.

As Melianna arrives in Rome, the stormy weather mirrors her conflicting emotions. She steps onto solid ground, ready to face the challenges and secrets that await her at the Imperial Military Academy. In a world where magic is both a gift and a curse, Melianna's journey of self-discovery and acceptance unfolds against the backdrop of cultural clashes, ancient gods, and the specter of a cataclysmic event that could reshape the empire.

In this gripping tale, Melianna must navigate the treacherous waters of a world filled with hidden truths and unforgiving consequences. Will she find her place and protect her secrets, or will her powers unleash a darkness that threatens to consume everything she holds dear? The answers lie within the heart of a young witch struggling to find her identity in a world shrouded in darkness.
