Princess Myrandae Aurelias Delevancheska the Fourteenth lives in a futuristic world beyond our imagination in a galaxy far far away.
She's a Gultaxian, an advanced race of people who have built a civilization of trillions living in a massive megastructure surrounding multiple planets and a sun contained in a Dyson Sphere.
Her father rules over her people, and has done so for hundreds of thousands of years. Gultaxians of the Gultex System have the technology to store copies of their consciousness and imbue them in new replacement bodies upon death, essentially living forever.
Hundreds of years ago Myrandae gave up her duties as princess so that she could live a normal life with her best friend and romantic partner the intelligent
Joena Rone Beilret the Seventh, spending their days watching the events of other worlds much as humans on Earth watch their favourite TV shows.
But when her old advisor
Colbrot Nokuu Steppan the Third shows up at her door with news that her father is dying, she follows him to the palace where her depressed father commits suicide in front of her -- his backups deleted ensuring it would be a final death.
She has to escape from the palace as her power hungry tyrant brother
Jamet Dologa Delevancheska the Twenty-Third lies to police that the princess killed her own father, making her a fugitive from the law.
Fearing violence, Princess Miri uses their advanced technology to create clones of her favourite heroes from other worlds to be her champions.
Rachel and Frankie, lost in a new world and forced to work together, help the princess fight back against her tyrant brother and save her people and the universe.
Previously on 99% Geek at 99geek.ca Rachel Lin Smith was just a shy teenage girl until she was turned into a vampire against her will by an evil serial killing monster. She managed to escape from his perverted clutches, and with the help of her geeky friends she has tried to re-acclimate herself to her old quiet suburban life. But it was no use. Try as she could to hide, it didn't matter. Trouble had a way of finding her. So she chose to fight back. Chose to train her abilities and find a confidence in herself to stand up to the people that threaten not just herself, but also the people around her, the whole city, and even the world. Her signature weapon is a sword, forged by a blacksmith practicing an ancient art. The sword has been imbued to draw power from love, something Rachel is in no short supply of, stuck in the middle of a romantic threesome between her best friend and the most popular girl in school.
Meanwhile, on a world far far away, in another galaxy even,
Frankie was just an orphan girl who never had a last name, recruited by a guild who preyed on people like her, vulnerable children with no one to look after them. She was trained by the Thieves Guild to be amazing at what she does, and forced to commit crimes in their name. Her loyalty didn't prevent their betrayal, and she was given to the guards of her city to be locked away. She managed to escape with a new friend she made in the dungeons, a man with amnesia who was kind and respectful -- but strong. With his help, and that of a disgraced guard, she has been seeking to get revenge on the guild that betrayed her, facing off against the guild's leader in single combat on the roof of a tower. She hadn't yet shook off that defeat as she laid down upon her friend's couch that night and closed her eyes to sleep. Perchance even to dream. Her signature weapon is her leather jacket, magically imbued to be able to produce infinite knives from her sleeves.
They are from different worlds. One is a world not so different from our own. The other is a medieval fantasy world the likes of which we imagine in Dungeons and Dragons campaigns. Neither woman knows each other's world exists.
But they are about to.
