Electra – Main Protagonist

          

Soon to be eighteen, Electra lives with her two sisters and brother in Bawl Mehr, one of nine Vercundi slave villages under Albacronian rule. The year is 2730, and her people have been enslaved since the world’s ultra-rich took control in 2065.

Unlike most of her fellow Vercundi, she senses that there must be a change in how her people live. She seeks equality but does not know how to obtain it. Her mother died working in Bawl Mehr’s only textile mill, and her father disappeared when she was nine.

Chara

          

Electra’s older sister, twenty-year-old Chara, works in the Textile Mill because the Albacronians decreed that one member from each family must work in the mill twelve hours a day, seven days a week, or the family will be broken up. She is meek and sometimes irresponsible, but she nourishes a loving relationship with her siblings. The family of four siblings maintains a tight bond and refer to themselves as the “Heart of the One.”

Nineteen-years-old, Zosma is Electra’s love interest. He has been a friend for her entire life. At the opening of the first book, he wants to marry Electra, but she is aloof.

He works in the textile mill receiving raw materials from the Albacronian capital of Adelphy, and loading finished textile products to send back. He lives with his crippled mother, Gemma, and his eleven-year-old sister, Altira.
