The world of Aethrion was never whole. It was stitched together from broken realities, where truth itself is a weapon and masks protect fragile minds from what lies beneath. When the Crimson Eclipse rises, one person in an era is chosen by the ancient law of Eclipsa—to become the Maskbreaker, able to strip away illusions and expose the horrifying truths beneath. This time, the chosen is a calm, sharp-eyed young man named Yurin Crimson. But Yurin doesn’t flinch when his power awakens. He doesn’t question why monsters wear porcelain masks. He doesn’t even seem surprised when the world itself begins to collapse around him. He smiles. Together with three uneasy allies— Evelyn Blackthorn, a chain-wielding shadow priestess with biting wit, Damien Holt, a hot-blooded knight whose flames echo with forgotten wars, and Clara Winslow, a gentle scholar whose ink reshapes reality— Yurin is thrown into the hidden underworld beneath the world’s mask, where whispers claw at sanity and every monster is revealed to be a person swallowed by truth. But as Guardians rise from the shards of broken lies and the sky itself calls Yurin “Architect”, one thing becomes terrifyingly clear: He isn’t just the hero chosen by destiny. He may be the very thing they’ve been fighting all along. --- GENRES Dark Fantasy Action / Mystery Psychological Thriller Romance & Tragedy Philosophical / Supernatural
