Is this fantasy? Sci fi? Post apocalyptic dystopia? Yes.

I find myself comparing the prejudice stemming from innate, late blooming magic to Alchemised and dare I say this executes on that better.

Also, definitely feel like watching The Witcher season 1 prepared me for this specific brand of nonlinear storytelling, and when I made that connection it clicked for me and made it easier to follow.

Fantasy for geology nerds ready to read an allegory for institutionalized racism (aka major fucked up shit)

"Tell them they can be great someday, like us. Tell them they belong among us, no matter how we treat them. Tell them they must earn the respect which everyone else receives by default. Tell them there is a standard for acceptance; that standard is simply perfection. Kill those who scoff at these contradictions, and tell the rest that the dead deserved annihilation for their weakness and doubt."
