Statera: The Balance of Yin and Yang

All Rights Reserved ©

Summary

In a world where select few can manipulate Yin and Yang energy, equilibrium has been maintained by fair treatment to users of both sides. Yin is dark and yielding, feminine and cool. It is nurturing and giving. Yang is light and strong, masculine and warm. It is solidifying and protective. In recent years, however, this delicate balance has been threatened by extreme beliefs. Those who have the power to tip the scales are fueling flames of suspicion and turning man against each other. The world is disintegrating into ruins; droughts, floods, famine, corruption and distrust among Yin and Yang Congregants threaten to upend life as it was. Aletheia is just a girl from a normal family in Minato. Her family just well off enough to send her to her dream in life: the Congregate. But she is not a Supplicant and her family has no ties within the Communion. So she enters the Congregate almost a blank slate, only armed with what she read in her hometown, which wasn't much. She has no idea what is coming for her as her life up to that point had been quite normal, specked with the typical existential crisis many of you would know well. What was the meaning of life? What was she here to do? When Aletheia meets Elora at the Congregate - oh beautiful, talented Elora - Aletheia realises that she does not have a Glorious Purpose. No, she thinks she has found her meaning in Elora.

Synopsis

In a world where select few can manipulate Yin and Yang energy, equilibrium has been maintained by fair treatment to users of both sides.

Yin is dark and yielding, feminine and cool. It is nurturing and giving.

Yang is light and strong, masculine and warm. It is solidifying and protective.

In recent years, however, this delicate balance has been threatened by extreme beliefs. Those who have the power to tip the scales are fueling flames of suspicion and turning man against each other.

The world is disintegrating into ruins; droughts, floods, famine, corruption and distrust among Yin and Yang Congregants threaten to upend life as it was.

Aletheia is just a girl from a normal family in Minato. Her family just well off enough to send her to her dream in life: the Congregate. But she is not a Supplicant and her family has no ties within the Communion.

So she enters the Congregate almost a blank slate, only armed with what she read in her hometown, which wasn’t much. She has no idea what is coming for her as her life up to that point had been quite normal, specked with the typical existential crisis many of you would know well.

What was the meaning of life? What was she here to do?

When Aletheia meets Elora at the Congregate - oh beautiful, talented Elora - Aletheia realises that she does not have a Glorious Purpose. No, she thinks she has found her meaning in Elora.

For reasons she cannot comprehend, Aletheia believes Elora is the one who will wrestle the world back into balance, and she is merely along for the ride. She doesn’t realise her companionship to a Elora’s journey is more important than she knows.

Follow her as she navigates through self-doubt, uncertainty, love, loyalty and friendship, searching and grasping at her meaning while she fights alongside Elora, whose shoulders carry the burden of saving the world.

My Blacksmith Savior

Farial-Jap-Girl: なんて素敵で、予想もしなかった読書体験なんでしょう! これは間違いなく、ありきたりな恋愛小説ではありません。むしろ、そうじゃないことに感謝したいくらいです。登場人物たちがとてもリアルに感じられるんです。欠点があって、複雑で、情熱的で、人間らしい「白か黒かでは割り切れない」魅力的なグレーの部分に満ちています。怒りや支配、愛、そして怒りの赤い霧に飲み込まれそうになったときに、別の道を選ぶ可能性を描いているところも、とても好きでした。でも正直、一番の驚きは、この本がとにかく楽しく読めたこと! 作者はヒロインの声を見事に描き出していて、私はすっかり別の時代、別の場所へ連れ去られたような気分になりました...
