Astra Ascending

In a world where every race is connected to an element and each being's place in society is determined by their talent, Kem is useless. An orphaned mixed-born, she has little to contribute. But when her homeworld is destroyed and in the process of being rescued she gains forbidden immortality, Kem is given the chance at a purpose - to protect others from her world's fate. That fate's name? Danmer. And he is not afraid to leave a world in utter ruins. But without any abilities herself to counteract Danmer's destructive wake, Kem must rely on others to overcome his ever-increasing power. The only one aware of the danger is the Guardian Miitanylania, a being whose power and knowledge Danmer craves. Armed only with unending days, Kem is little more than an errand-girl for Miitanylania. As she befriends Miitanylania's allies, Kem struggles to feel valuable. What good is a woman with no power in a battle between some of the Ascendancy's greatest beings?
