Seli'une Pronouncing

This will be updated when new special words are added to the story.  Just if you need help saying them aloud/in your mind.  Well, if it isn't in the English language, it goes here, whether it's hard to pronounce or not.  (Honestly, I'm mentally laughing at how I spell some of these out.)

Seli'une: say-lih OOYN

Vivite: viv-EET

Che'tigro: CHAY tih-grow

Malay:  mih-LAY (think like milady)

Alezanda:  al-eh-ZAN-dah

Xiane:  ZEE-ahn

Fione:  fee-OHN

K'kyri:  keh KHR-ee

Vargo'iu: vahr-GOH ee-yoo

Sarfinsch: sahr-FIHNSH

Gara'ia: gah-RAH ee-yuh

Metaliac: meh-TAL-yak

Wirilan: WEER-ih-lahn

Jesan- jeh-SAHN

Aston- AH-stuhn

Kesen: KEH-sehn

Drewan- droo-AHN

Tovis- TO (like toe or tow) -vihs


Seli'une "Preview" (and information for the story)

Authoress' Note:
Hey!  Just wanted to let you know that this story is the only story I am currently working on.  I just finished Anne (Part Three of Three), and I have had this on my phone for a while.  I have three chapters done so far, but I think I will put separate chapters for this story.  I haven't been on Blogger for a while, and I am really sorry about that, especially since I kinda left you people hanging with Anne.

This is just a summary/preview/hook for Seli'une, so I would like you to read this first.  To "force" you to do so, I won't put any of the actual story on here yet.  I might post new chapters every...month?  Does that sound fair?  Tell me what time period you think would work.  If I get no other suggestions I will go with month.  Maybe week if I feel like it.

I hope you enjoy!

Imagine if you lived in a world where two races were at war.  And now imagine if there was another race.  Imagine if that race had the power to stop the war, if the race used it right.  The race you are imagining, the third one, is the Seli'une.

Vivite is a sixteen-year-old street rat with a hideous secret that she has to hide, unless she wants the government after her: she is a Seli'une.  The Seli'une are an incredible race.  They have the power to take energy or nutrients from another object.  This object could be human, animal, or plant.  Even if it's dead.

Che'tigro.  The tiger people.  The opposing side.  The government plans to use the Seli'une as a weapon against them.

Vivite knows she can hide.  She has friends.  But she knows no others like her.  She is rescued by a mysterious woman, to find ten other Seli'une have already found refuge with her.  Vivite puts the number to eleven.  She finds guidance there.   Friendship there.  Vivite learns to trust again.  She also finds danger.

How will Vivite cope with a world that is out to get her?  Read to find out.

Some time later (like the next day):
I have decided that since I have the first chapter already typed and saved as a draft, I will post it later this week.  If time allows.


Anne (Part Three of Three)

Anne ran to her parents, who hugged her tightly.  They were so glad she was safe.  Anne was glad they weren't at home when the bomb dropped.  After exchanging conversation with the nurse about what would happen to the family and how to care for Anne's cuts and scrapes/if she needed care, Anne went with her parents to Anne's grandmother's house.  There, they were safe.

For now.
