Proven
Rigby and Rhys are twins.
Born into a community of Lochsilk harvesters, the brothers have weathered the death of their father, the tacit disdain of their noble mother, and the harsh realities of growing up in a marginalized Culchie village. Through it all, they were brothers, not one without the other.
But the world as the boys know it is on the brink of irreversible metamorphosis. There are whispers that early manifestations of the Great Reformation have been reported even as far out as their remote corner of the known continents. Its effects alter the flora and fauna and reforge the very geography itself, leaving an unrecognizable wild in its wake. Year by year it marks even newborns among the Culchie. Rigby and Rhys were among those marked.
With the advent of their twelfth year, the brothers’ dormant powers are due to stir. The question looming before them is whether this potential within them will become the Curse or the Gift. Regardless, Rigby and Rhys are resolved to face it shoulder-to-shoulder.
What is this mysterious power that marks them? What connection does it have with the strange force reshaping the world, and will the brother’s bond hold firm or succumb to change?
