Lucia lived a ordinary life. Almost ordinary, except for a few family oddities. But once her life changed a lot - she saw a battle between her acquaintance Leon and the girl Marianna. And Lucia found out that in fact, she was not at all human. And henceforth, it is drawn into the centuries-old conflict of the cosmic races: Leanan sidhes and Ishtars, whose causes are hidden in the mists of time...
(Previously, the e-book was published under the pseudonym Darina Beloyar.)
Excerpts from the book:
... And now, yesterday, the very events occurred that changed the life of Lucia. It all started with the fact that in the late afternoon Lucia decided to see Leon. She knew that he liked to walk along the coast at this time, and went there.
Approaching the coast, Lucia suddenly heard a strange sound, like an electric crack.
Pushed forward by strange feelings, the girl came closer to the source of the sound. She saw something that looked like an energy barrier of light purple color. Several young girls passed by the ‘barrier’: they laughed merrily and did not notice its at all.
“I must be sleeping...” Williams decided, realizing the unrealistic nature of what was happening. “And in a dream, as you know, you can do anything. So I can get through this barrier.”
And the young lady, obeying an incomprehensible impulse of feelings, resolutely stepped forward. As she passed through the ‘wall of the barrier’, she felt a slight electric tingling and... Leon appeared before her eyes, talking about something with an unknown blond girl.
Lucia felt curiosity and hid behind one of the massive coastal stones, abundantly located around. Her sensitive ears heard the words of Leon:
“Marianna... I did not expect to see you here.”
The stranger, whose name was Marianna, snorted displeasedly and answered:
“I remember how I killed you a year ago... How did you manage to survive?”
“You really thought it was so easy to kill Pixie? I’ve already told you several times before that it’s not.”
Lucia, who had watched such a strange picture from behind stone, was in full confidence that she could imagine it. “I'm definitely sleeping,” she decided. “Strange barriers, some Pixies... It's all a dream!”
The girl wanted to leave, but, alas, an incident happened. She accidentally stepped on a dry branch that had fallen earlier from a short tree growing nearby. The branch crunched. Leon and Marianna, distracted from their conversation and turned their eyes to the sound source.
“Lucia?” Leon said in amazement when he saw, unsuccessfully, trying to escape the troublemaker. “How did you manage to get into subspace?”
“Subspace?” Williams asked perplexedly.
In her mind, the thoughts that all this was a dream became even stronger.
Meanwhile, the mysterious Marianna asked her interlocutor, with a look pointing to Lucia:
“Is this really that girl for Caliburn's sword, about which vague rumors reached us? I was expecting something more... But in any case, I won’t let her just leave!”
In the hands of the mysterious person, as if by magic, a long spear suddenly appeared, with a wide silver tip. And she quickly rushed towards Lucia...
Genre: FICTION / Science Fiction / Alien ContactLands that will become known in the future as the county of Cornwall in Britain are located in the southwest of the British island. In the past, during the reign of the Celts, these lands were inhabited by the Dumnones tribe. During the years of Roman rule, Cornwall underwent minimal romanization, and its economic activity was the extraction of tin and its export through small ports.
The Dumnones tribe retained their usual way of life and their rulers, who then became the kings of Dumnonia (as these lands were called in Celtic manner). But there was another name, this time of Saxon origin — Cornwall.
In the southeast, Cornwall washed the English Channel, and in the northwest the Celtic Sea.
Compared to other parts of the island, the weather was mildest and sunniest, and frosts were rare in winter. But the summer was not at all as warm as it might seem. And the rains were frequent guests in these places.
... With the fall of Roman rule at the beginning of the century, Britain broke up into independent regions. Kings and lords, some of whom converted to Christianity, while others are still faithful to pagan Celtic traditions, often fought with each other for lands. For, each sought to expand their possessions.
Laird Neil Phelan, placed his ‘castle’ in a former Roman fort. We must pay tribute that, despite its impressive age, the fort was distinguished by quality, and its walls, if necessary, were protected from the enemy.
Neil lived here with his beloved wife, Rowena, the widow of the Laird Agro, whose possessions were located nearby.
As soon as Laird died of a cold (which he caught during a military campaign) twenty years ago, Phelan, who had long been in love with the beautiful Rowena, proposed to her. And having sustained mourning for decency, the Lady became his wife.
