Architects of the Cataclysm
38 parts Complete MatureIn a world torn between heroes and villains, it can be a dangerous and hostile place. Some take comfort in the Gifted that stand up against those who would use their powers for greed and chaos. While others choose to hide away, fearful of the day when they'll become a superpowered battle's collateral damage.
Elaina Hart has a quiet life in the safe embrace of her forest home. She lives off the land, relying on the gifts of the earth to sustain her simple, quiet existence. Amongst the trees, where there is nothing for a villain to gain and no evil for a hero to vanquish, she is safe from the troubles of the more populated urban centers. At least she was until two Gifted rivals take their brawl above her woods.
When one of the superpowered combatants is knocked down a little ways from her home, Elaina brings him to the safety of her cabin -- successfully inserting herself into the world of the Gifted, a world she had spent years trying to escape.
