Episode 228: Warfare is a Dance w/ Olivia Dufault & Rebekah Isaacs with Prima Apparata for Ignition Press

Todays Episode I talk with Olivia Dufault & Rebekah Isaacs about their extraordinary tale of Sci-Fi in Prima Apparata for Ignition Press. Growing up the Battle Mechs I loved were Robotech and Voltron where each of these Mechs were constructed in the personality and design of the pilot. Olivia and Rebekah create a world where the pilots start their lives as children-Bioengineered CHILDREN whose main instructional guide to battle is ballet. Imagine the deadliest mech warrior being graceful in the choreography of their warfare. We meet Mar & Rhea the 2 highly qualified students tasked to perform a life or death recital in battle to honor Appolyta, an amalgamation of Apollo, Hippolyta, and Artemis but a cosmic goddess nonetheless. Mar and Rhea compete as top recruits for the title of Prima Apparata.
