Mythic Fiction — In Development
A multi‑book narrative exploring identity as a shifting architecture and the transformative power of adaptation. The series opens at the end of the timeline with Nákiara, a young woman confronting the revelation of a cosmic truth that reshapes her understanding of herself, her family, and “the thing that happened to her.” Told without naming the central figure behind her revelation, Book 1 becomes a study in emotional metamorphosis and the cost of resisting change.
Book 2 follows Valentine, whose world collapses after the fall of her House and the shattering discovery that the person she believed guilty is innocent. Her arc traces the breaking and reforging of identity under pressure, revealing the deeper forces that shape belief, loyalty, and transformation.
Across these early volumes, the series examines how those who adapt evolve into something new — and how those who refuse are broken by the weight of their own rigidity.
Role: Author, Narrative Architect
Focus: Identity transformation, mythic structure, non‑linear storytelling, character‑driven worldbuilding
