My Friend, the Gifted: A Sci-Fantasy

What would you sacrifice to become extraordinary?

Elodie Marchand struggles to stand out at the Sight Institute. With so many brilliant minds pushing the limits of AI, alchemy, and nanotechnology, it feels impossible to compete. A stark contrast to her best friend, and the Institute’s unrivalled favourite - Soraya Gourrami. Soraya’s firm encouragement curbs Elodie’s impatience, and in turn, she helps keep Soraya’s temper in check.

A perfect symbiosis.

And all that is about to change with one simple meeting.

When the Institute’s psychic organisation mandates a thorough search for new gifted blood, Elodie jumps at the opportunity to finally reach for greatness.

Even if she may not survive the test, or the process that follows. Elodie will need all the help she can get to keep her life and sanity through the test that will establish her suitability for a life of duty and prestige. But Soraya’s friendship suddenly comes with a single new rule. Elodie can never look into her past or future.

But accidents happen. And some secrets are too big and dangerous to keep. It’s time to choose.

Friendship or a chance to claim her true self at any cost? _____________________________

My Friend, The Gifted is the first of four written accounts that chronicle the rather explosive events that made 2363 a year to remember. As you dive into the often secretive lives of four friends, you’ll find out how much damage a single person can do to humanity’s future.

Did we say damage? No, no damage. Only wonderful, beautiful things. Come along for the ride. But remember, whatever happens, never take your eyes off the Universe of Infinite Wonder.
