The Legend of the Seven Fates…
       There once was an ancient library filled with all the knowledge in the world. The keepers of that library were the fates. 

     The fates were named Regalia, Clara, Melodie, Amara, Mia, Desirae, and Gailia. The fates were tasked with knitting scarves for the destiny of all mortals with plain material like wool, cotton, and yarn. One day the fates get an anonymous gift and the youngest fate, Gailia opens it. 

     Since Gailia is a fabled fate, fearless and immortal, she pulls on the string of the glowing box without caring to read the letter that was sent along with it. Gailia sees a glittering purple silk laying in the box and quickly stops knitting her boring destinies to make her new masterpiece. 

     As Gailia knits her new scarf Desirae, the sixth fate, takes note and decides she wants a masterpiece too. So Desirae stops knitting her plain cotton destiny and chooses a sparkling sapphire silk instead.

     Mia, the fifth fate, walks by while knitting her almost finished yarn scarf and is drawn to a fiery looking carnelian. Mia sits down next to her two sisters and starts to finish this nearly finished scarf with the new and energetic carnelian.

     But the fourth fate, Amara, is tired of not getting enough attention as the middle most fate. So Amara plans to knit her next mortal destiny as well as she can manage with a strong deep black diamond silk. 

     Melodie, the third fate, gasps at her sister’s neglect in knitting mortal destinies and grabs a deep emerald silk to show her older sisters. But the power in the silk overwhelms her and she instead collapses on the ground. Not knowing what else to do she skillfully knits a complex and delicate pattern into her newly acquired powerful jade silk.

     Clara, the sixth fate, walks by and notices her sisters knitting something beautiful with a strange new material. Clara knows she’s never seen anything like these materials so she shouts for her eldest sister. Regalia, the oldest, knows what has happened and instantly goes over towards her younger siblings. 

     Regalia hopes that she can make it in time to stop Clara from falling into this trap as well. But as Regalia bursts into the library her skin turns pale. All of her younger siblings are knitting part of their lives into mortal destinies. 

Even Clara is standing a few feet in front of Regalia knitting a destiny out of shining gold and silver. Regalia nods because her sisters have already chosen their paths.

     Regalia wakes her sisters and picks up a dull and colorless grey silk that pulses with raw potential. The sisters know their mistake and follow Regalia as they knit a prophecy over top of the silks.

      The seven fates knit a faith-filled prophecy out of the stable earthly silk and connect this to a place they call The Tower of Destiny. They write down that one day the chosen will unseal the library of knowledge at the top of The Tower.

     They can only hope that whoever does this will be kind enough to revive them so that they can continue knitting mortals in order to save the world. Though as the sisters take their last breath before slumber that can’t help but have faith.

     Dear readers, this is The Ninth Fate / Tristan, author of The Tower of Destiny. I hope you guys are enjoying the story so far, I know I've had a lot of fun writing it. And fear not, for I have plenty of plans for the story in the future. I'm very excited for the upcoming chapters and I feel like the story is going well for now. The pacing could use a little work though LOL.


     But either way I've been extremely busy with work since I just picked up a new job. Gotta provide for the kids —totally not talking about the characters from the story— somehow. Oh and myself too of course.


     I hope you can forgive me for not posting a chapter today. Hopefully I will have some free time for writing tomorrow so that I can get the next two chapters out. I will see how that goes and post whatever I finish.


     Thanks for supporting this passion project of mine so far. I'm so excited for the story to officially pick up pace that I can hardly write the more laid back parts of the story. I hope you guys will love it as much as I do.


     Look out for the next chapters,  have fun and enjoy life.
