Free CalltheMoon by Viola Grace

Naka can use her mind to destroy a world, or she can save it. When nothing seems right, she calls the moon.
    Naka was adrift with no means to focus, but accidentally starting a tremor in her hometown lets everyone know what she is and sentences her to confinement. The Citadel sends a representative to take her away, but the information that he is given will make sure that she finds no friends off Resicor.
    Her life is no longer her own, but her talent begs to be used, and on the planet of Piq, she finds something very wrong. The empty world should not be empty. Its mind has been stolen and lodged in the moon. In his efforts to escape, the living mind of the planet has almost ripped his old body apart. With skills she didn’t know she had, Naka steps in to carry one mind back to its home. She hopes she will survive the process.

Chapter One
    The interior of the dome was the same as it had been every day for the last three weeks. Naka Gwyn ran through the tasks that had been assigned to her and finished early in the morning. The rest of the day was hers to do with as she pleased and what she usually pleased was to climb onto the roof to stare at the moons.
    Naka had given up on protesting that she wasn’t a physical talent. No one within the dome cared and no one outside wanted to listen.
    The council had given her mundane chores that consisted of cleaning and tidying up the council chambers. She didn’t mind. It kept her body busy and having her body idle was what had caused the problem in the first place.
    With her new restrictor suit in place, she didn’t bother to try and use her talent, in these close quarters it would do her more harm than good anyway.
    The rocks and the energy dome overhead were a deterrent to her even trying to plunge her mind into the ground beneath her. The first time she had ever used the niggling power, she caused an earthquake that rattled her village. It was only a small earthquake but enough to send the guard swarming over the area looking for the cause. With four helpful neighbours pointing fingers directly at her, Naka had no chance to evade suspicion and a simple brain scan confirmed that she was a talent.
    Her talent didn’t have a personal physical manifestation, but it was a catastrophic reaction and that itself was enough to end her up in the dome.
    “Good afternoon, Wahli.” She waved at the greeter for the council. “Another new arrival?”
    “Something like that. Are you enjoying your time here?” Wahli was always polite when she spoke to Naka.
    Naka sighed. “I am. Don’t worry. I am not going to break the dome. I am going for a run, care to join me?”
    The other woman smiled, “Perhaps later. Have a good run.”
    Wahli walked toward the only entry and
