One night, near my own house, I ran into a stranger. Without a shadow of doubt, he said I was not quite human. Naturally, I decided he was mentally ill and told him to get lost. But this stubborn man didn’t back down: no matter what, he intended to prove that he was telling the truth. And he did.
From that moment on, my ordinary life fell apart, and ahead opened a frighteningly foggy unknown. I learned the world was far more complicated than it seemed: next to people there exist ergoncs—those who can control energies. For several centuries they’ve been hiding from outsiders, living in their own cities. And the most incredible thing—me… I’m one of them.
Only, stepping into this unknown, I still didn’t understand: there would be no road back. Ahead were harsh trials and a struggle in which I would more than once have to defend my right to live.
