𝑩𝒍𝒖𝒓𝒃:
The world of Arcana is an uchrony of our Saint Denis, capital of Anges, is none other than Paris in France, Rema is the city founded by Remus and not Romulus, and Maa’tar is none other than the name for Las Vegas. A world where the map looks so much like ours, but the history and events that have taken place have changed it in detail.
1482,
Lena Ferrante is 17 years old when the Velmont siblings, Liam and Emanuelle, show up to buy her dowry and take her to Saint Denis, where she is to marry their eldest brother, Gabriel Velmont. With regret, she leaves her father and sister Alma, discovering that waiting for her will be not only an arranged marriage but also the burden or honor of being the High Priestess, that is, the Arcanum chosen by El, father of all gods.
In Saint Denis she will first be brutally trained by Sasha, mother of the Velmont siblings and Arcanum of the Strength, and will have to deal with an Emperor who seems to be doing everything to keep her away and make her wish for the annulment of the marriage.
When the Sibyl senses the awakening of the Magician Arcanum, young Sylas, Lena, and the Velmont siblings enter the province of Wallachia and discover that the country of Arges is held in check by a vampire sire unlike any the world has known. The Voivoda, the prince of Wallachia, is none other than the red knight of the Apocalypse, and the battle against him is the first of the new holy war.
Between enemies from the infernal plane and allies to conquer, Lena will also have to solve the mystery that seems to be Gabriel Velmont.
“Our sacred duty it is to protect and serve the High Priestess, in this life and in all the lives to come.”
