Luzori was the Commander of the Army of Chathiir, the childhood friend of that country's Queen, like a second mother to the Princess. But disaster struck in the form of a war with a neighboring country. Despite her best efforts, Chathiir was overrun by the invaders. She was unable to prevent the assassination of the Queen and Princess, and in the end, she was herself mortally wounded. As she was dying, she cursed the gods she once worshiped, and blamed them for not protecting her or her land. This was the last thing on her mind as blackness swept over her... But then Luzori awoke - alive, somehow. She soon found out two astonishing things - her body was no longer that of the mature commander she once was, but a young woman who did not even resemble her old form - and she had somehow been taken several years into the past, before the war which destroyed Chathiir even began. Now she desperately struggles to prevent the loss of all she loved - but is it even possible to alter fate? And would the result be even worse...? The setting for this story is a desert kingdom and surrounding lands. I envision strong Arabian and Indian influences. Curved architecture, ornate wrought metalwork, cloth banners and tents... |
| The following synopsis is provided only to give a very rough idea of the kind of story that is being told; many details are omitted for brevity's sake. Artists who agree to draw this story will be provided with much more detailed scripts. |
| In issue one, pretty much what I described in the premise comes to pass. Luzori, wounded and dying, staggers into a temple to the gods and curses them for letting her city be destroyed and her friends slain. She herself is killed - but then she awakes on a sandy beach. Wandering to an oasis, she finds that her body is that of a much younger, different-looking woman. A trader stops by the oasis, and offers to take her to the nearest city, and from him she learns that the time is a handful of years before the city of Chathiir fell. In issue two, Luzori tries to recover from the shock of what has happened, and decides to try to travel to Chathiir to somehow prevent the disaster from happening. However, she is penniless and her body is weak, compared to her former self. She must find a way to get by and strengthen herself. Not only that, she must find ways to protect herself against those who might try to take advantage of a lone girl wandering the streets... |
