The Gate: Undestined Fan-Fic
This is an entry into the fan-fic contest for Undestined by OneStoryteller. I imagined a situation post Undestined when the S'vaeli, after their plague is (presumably) destroyed by Silay, decide to invade the now-weakened Ohicink. Their invasion will succeed or fail at Sojan, which I've interpreted to be the Athens of Ohicink -- a coastal city and naval power. The S'vaeli vanguard has built a siege fort that commands Sojan's harbor. This fort not only threatens to starve the city by cutting of sea trade, but also prevents Sojan from sending its fleet to destroy the main S'vaeli invasion force that is approaching over the sea. To defend Sojan, forces from all over Ohicink converge on the city to destroy the S'vaeli siege fort and free the Sojani fleet. Because Ohicink has no unifying king, Silay becomes the symbol and inspiration for the varied Ohicinki forces arrayed at Sojan.…

The prophet's message is of peace and fraternal love, but Darwin knows his true goals are nefarious. Will she have the courage and tenacity to unmask this false prophet?…
