Today's the last day of the #NarratessIndieSale; soon, Riyati Rebirth + Riyati Rivals are going back to full price -- if you're missing traumatized teenagers on your TBR, jump into the #Riyati series 👀 Book 1 (Rebirth) - $0.99 @ riyati.ink/rebirth Book 2 (Rivals) - $2.99 @ riyati.ink/rivals

The image is split into four columns, each having a color palette. The upper far left is teal, the middle is red and black, the right is yellow and dark brown, and the bottom far left is purple and mint green. There are roman numerals on each of the splits, I, II, III, and IV, with Riyati Rebirth, Riyati Rivals, Riyati Ripple, and Riyati Recollection under the roman numerals. Behind the titles and roman numerals are magic glyphs colored teal, red, and yellow respectively. There is a bullet list with the following:
Buffy x Persona 4 vibe
Generational trauma
Childhood friends slow burn
Demi, AuDHD fMC
Contemporary & low dark fantasy with urban fantasy elements
Reincarnations
Intricate elemental magic
Complex & morally grey characters
Classism & effects of generational poverty
Found family
There are character illustrations in the bottom right-hand corner. Aligned middle between the characters is the text "riyati.ink" in a box

Riyati Origins-Prequel- 72pgs
Riyati Rebirth-Book 1- 260pgs
Riyati Rivals-Book 2- 284pgs
Riyati Ripple-Book 3- 339pgs
Riyati Recollection-Book 4- 310pgs

It all started that day, in the forest... Kylie Rae learned she is anything but a normal after a life or death situation revealed that she is not only a mage — a powerful one at that — but also the reincarnation of a long destroyed magic kingdom’s last crown princess. The life she knows is destroyed as she learns people from her past incarnations want her dead and a secret organization kidnaps and tortures mages like herself if they ever discover she exists.
Riyati is a new adult/adult contemporary, low dark fantasy series that seeks to explore themes of identity, legacy, generational trauma, and finding your own path in life. The series is set in the modern day fictional Southern US town of Opal Pines and includes multiple first person perspectives with characters across a range of queer, neurodiverse, and socioeconomic statuses.

Her whole life, Kylie Rae had been concerned with appeasing her demanding, achievement-focused mother while enjoying an otherwise peaceful teenage life of sleeping late and hanging out with friends after school.
That all changes after she learns she’s the reincarnation of a destroyed magic kingdom’s crown princess after she and her two closest friends end up in a life-threatening situation. Now she has her past incarnations and somehow her own future self as distinct consciousnesses in her head, each with their own agenda — one that doesn’t necessarily line up with Kylie’s own interests.

Even worse, her past two incarnations were killed by the same man… and he’s coming for her next. If she doesn’t adapt to her new life of magic and secrets, making A’s to appease her mom will be the least of her concerns — she’ll be just as dead as the incarnations body-sharing with her.

riyati.ink/rebirth

While Kylie survived the kidnapping incident of June, it’s left her life in shambles, constantly confined under her mother’s supervision or locked in her bedroom. Worse, Kylie soon learns that while Asuza may be dead, his supporters are very much alive — including a certain familiar woman from the kidnapping who knows Kylie’s at fault for Asuza’s demise and wants nothing more than to repay the favor.

All Kylie can do is trust Siani, even knowing Siani allowed her to be kidnapped in the first place and that Siani openly hides yet more secrets — dark secrets that could threaten Kylie’s own existence. But if she can’t count on her own future-self, who can Kylie trust? She’ll have to decide who her allies are— and fast — if she wants to survive in this new life or else she won’t make it to the end of the year.
