Changeling
S89/100Web serial by Mecanimus
Royal RoadMagic came to our world. Portals opened across the planet, releasing mana and dangerous monsters on the unsuspecting population. Wonder turned to horror. Society teetered on the brink of collapse until heroes rose to face the catastrophe — men and women who wielded mana to enter portal worlds, plundering their treasures and slaying beasts that bullets barely harmed. That was more than sixty years ago. Nestra was born without a core. In the new city of Threshold, baseline humans like her are being forced out of law enforcement. MaxSec is one of their last holdouts, and Nestra is one of its last members — but it cannot last. With Nestra addicted to mana and her job one of the only chances at getting close to portals, she is heading for disaster. Threshold is a city dominated by corporations and powerful users. It takes very little to become collateral damage — unless Nestra can finally figure out what's wrong with her.
