Augmented Aspects

Cassie is about to have her dream retirement, joining Biprism Realm — a world of magic, portals, pocket realms, towers, monsters, and steampunk wonder. Rather than hedging her bets on possible restarts, she sells everything she has for the best possible start. Unlike those who came before her, Cassie has a plan.

Still limited by past flaws, Cass has the world changing around her as she pursues wealth while staying broke. With nothing but magic and wits, she takes on the most perilous challenge yet: staying invisible while competing in high-stakes poker tournaments where the prize is millions she can never touch — and the penalty for losing is everything she has, including her Royal Blood.

The world has finally opened up to Cass, giving her the chance to explore its wonders and make magical mistakes along the way — many, many magical mistakes. Aided by friends, she sets out to discover what the world holds and figure out who she wants to become.

Moving to new land proves far more complicated than expected when the supposedly vacant plot turns out to be an ancient elven burial ground. A temporary reprieve of hostilities offers breathing room — but complications compound in unexpected ways, including Mallory's gift of a mirror capable of turning every living thing into an undead monster.

In a world that broadcasts every action in live-streaming clarity around the clock, the ability to go unnoticed for even a few minutes feels impossibly appealing. After years of being on full display, Cass discovers that the ultimate form of power might be the ability to be anonymous.

Problems come from nowhere and everywhere at once — but every problem has a solution. Cassie Cruise tackles learning to fly, hosting a very mobile book club, understanding why you should never feed a pixie cream, and all the other typical Mythical Problems plaguing her daily existence.
