Since ancient times, the world of magic and people have existed in harmony with each other. But this situation did not suit everyone.
Charon has left his post, provoking an irreversible process, destroyed the Balance of the Universe. Both worlds are in unprecedented danger - the ancient Evil, called Chaos, is waiting for the chance to break out and devour all life on Earth.
Aa ordinary freshman, Darcy Black, finding herself in the wrong place and at the wrong time, gains incredible power, but at the same time a duty, in the form of the destruction of hundreds of gloomy souls that escaped with Charon. Now it only depends on her whether Chaos will be freed from its captivity? Darcy will have to forget about her dreams and human life in order to devote herself to the duty that she must give to the Balance, which holds the ancient evil in its prison.
Plunging into the world of magic and myths, the girl realizes that she is becoming a part of it and it seems that there is no turning back. Saving the world, she risks losing everything that was important in human life, becoming indifferent to all relatives and friends. Will she be able to preserve humanity and save both worlds?
Absorbed in struggle, training and flared up feelings for a mentor - a brave and courageous Guardian, Darcy does not even realize that the Elders of the world of magic have completely different plans for her. Two lovers will have to resist not only demons and evil spirits, but strict rules and prohibitions imposed on the warriors protecting the Balance. How will this struggle end?


Immortal. Broken Balance

Boston. Massachusetts. Darsy's Apartment. 


"How was your first day at work?" Jackson asked me over dinner. 


Today he came back unusually late, as he was presenting the project. I was supposed to be there but my new job was my excuse. Instead of going to a boring conference for engineers, I was studying textbooks and notes in silence. 


By the time Jackson got to the apartment, it was nine o'clock in the evening, and my Doppelganger had long returned from work. 


I ordered Thai food for dinner, which we had just begun to eat. 


"I got a standard first-day program – a tour around the office, signing a contract and meeting a bunch of new people. I didn't even try to remember all the names. It's just impossible. I think there are a thousand of them, and after lunch, they multiply and become twice as many!" I tried to joke. But it had zero effect. "Jackson, are you okay? How was the project presentation?"
