This is kind of a work in progress but I have a good idea of it. Advice, perhaps a few people who want to join, etc, is welcome! I am new here so please let me know if I'm doing something wrong... sorry it's so long.

The city of Almeka has fallen. The Elder Council are all dead. Only the fantasies of the youngest and fittest remain. The ashes seem to call out to a select group of children. This group of five children call themselves the Ashen Council. Even the Ashen Council cannot stop the oncoming slaughter as war threatens the young nation. In the face of this danger, many flee to neighboring cities. But some remain and fight at the Council’s side, in hopes of keeping their city.
In the ashes of the city, though, there are secrets- dangerous and helpful, dark and vital, deadly and salvation. Even when a member of the Council goes rogue and begins to fight against the Ashen Council, those still on the Council’s side are challenged with a challenge they have never faced before:
-     With the most powerful member of the Council gone rogue and joined up with a rival city, Amedia, the Council is severely weakened and sidetracked as they search for new members to replenishing their power.
-     Four other cities have turned against Almeka, and many innocents have been caught and killed in the crossfire as those who haven’t fled fight to keep Almeka alive.
Once a month, the Council rounds up those who have survived and who are still fighting and search for those whom the ashes call to. Of course, this is a rare gift, and only one in every three children has it; it is only rare as there are fewer than one-hundred children left in Almeka. Do you have the Gift? Are you loyal to Almeka or are you a coward, or perhaps an enemy, or perhaps even an Unallied? This is your path to carve, but everybody soon will reach the Point of No Return. Do you dare to take on the challenge?
