What I like about this is that is has a blend of both mythology which is one of my faviorite subjects and it also has science fiction which to is a fav subject of mine. You have a fabulous title as well and that really got my attention.
Oh man! This sounds really good! It's not very often that I run across a story that catches my interest. But I definately have to read this. Sounds very, VERY interesting. I look forward to getting started.

Believe me, I know what I need to do with this one. I didn't plan any of it, so not everything is in yet that needs to be. It's only a first draft though, plenty of room for improvement :)
I would say, however, that the Harry Potter books are massively overrated (in my opinion). The Bartimaeus Trilogy by Jonathan Stroud is a similar concept, but is far, far better.
Cheers, look forward to your feedback!

This sounds really good. <3 and I have to say I love your username. it's so clever. :)
anyway, the plot sounds good, but i have a worry that this sounds a little on the cliche side. make sure that you work to form new plot twists, new ideas and that you don't fall into the other 'save the human race' stories, okay?
also, i want you to make sure that you fully understand what your about to get yourself into in writing this story and making it successful. the words (6 different human worlds) stood out to me as a reader. this puts a lot of baggage on your shoulders as the writer. you are going to have to create several whole and working societies and worlds in order for this idea to be executed gracefully. while i read i will be looking a lot at setting and the 'world' you create for your reader to envision. setting can make or break you, and i've seen a lot of great ideas fail because the scene wasn't developed enough. for example, part of the reason why J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series worked out so well was because she created an entire society, government and world in which the Harry Potter story takes place. so here is some food for thought ~
would Harry Potter have been so successful if she hadn't of worked so hard to develop a while world?
that being said, don't be discouraged.
while this puts a lot on you as the writer, it gives you as much room for imagination as your mind allows. delve into that and create a unique world.
in general, go through and check tense, tone and spelling on here and you'll be set.

Hi, Jamie!
This sounds like fun. I'm on board. And naturally, I could not resist - a few nits for your teaser:
- cut the first 'normal' in reference to Rook (love the name, btw) it's used again in the second line.
>she along with five companions now stand as the last, best hope for (humanity's) survival, as an evil from the forgotten ages re-emerges.
Looking forward to it!
