"The world of Nova revolves around gems. When combined with water, they release their elemental essence within. Swallowing a gem is considered a death sentence, except for a special few - The Exempt. Lyle is content to live as he has been, optimistic, carefree, yet drowning in guilt. That is until he is forced to finally realise his true self and discover why he possesses such supernatural abilities. But why do those around him also want to know?"
The Exempt is a mystery, fantasy, thriller; it is a story of trauma, identity, and recovery. It covers various heavy topics including child abuse, sexual abuse, self-harm, suicide, depression, anxiety, violence, murder, and torture. The Exempt is intended for mature audiences.

This website is to store a mass of story related lore. All the required lore is revealed within the novel itself, but it was impossible to fit the additional fun bits in without being overly expositional. As a result, this site was created to offer some additional insight into the world of Nova, for those who are curious!
