In a world where lifespan is currency, every citizen is born with a ticking balance. The rich live for centuries. The poor sell survival. No one questions the system—until a young man’s ledger mysteriously increases by forty years. No record. No donor. As cracks begin to show, he realizes age was never just a transaction.

In the end, the void opened and the world was sent into an apocalypse. An existence born from the void wreaked havoc to its people, defiling their bodies. Catastrophe broke the land turning it into a wasteland. The realm of mortals and the mysterious opened to one another gathering together in darkness. They cried, they begged and they prayed, hoping for someone or something to come take them away from their suffering. In their darkest moment, their prayers were answered but they were given an unfortunate missive from above. Messengers of light descended to fight against the threat, calling it the Blight. The one that could save them all, the god of life, went missing and they were cast out of the Realm of Light, left to be stranded in the mortal realms. The messengers alone cannot rescue them from their fate. All would be consumed and creation will cease to be. No god, no savior, no hope was given unto them and the light within them faded. One person, bearing the Essence of the Cosmos, came unto them and said, “We shall make our own fate for all that has been said and done passed.” He became the very first to become a vessel to a celestial being, lighting everyone’s soul. Carrying the light of dreams, the High Chief lifted the people out of the darkness and pushed away the Blight, sealing the void they came from. For the first time, all of creation came together as one under his leadership and when peace was conducted in the realm of mortals, he disappeared never to be seen again. His age of faith, hope and love continued on carried by those he had left behind, holding his torch many years after allowing humanity to connect to the cosmos, growing and gathering. But as the Light illuminates the vastness of the infinity, so does the Darkness loom over waiting.... adapting. Our story begins with a runaway, dreaming the same dream he had ever since....

In a world where magic is inherited through sacred bloodlines, power is decided at birth. The noble Houses rule society, each controlling a fundamental law of Arcane Magic. Those born without a crest are destined to live ordinary lives, forever beneath the elite. So when Kael a boy with no lineage, no crest, and no magical signature is admitted into Astraeus Dominion, the most prestigious magic academy in existence, it shocks the entire continent. But the real disaster begins during the entrance trial. Instead of summoning bloodline magic, Kael awakens something long erased from history a forbidden ability known only in sealed records: Authority Magic. The power to overwrite spells themselves. Now hunted by suspicious instructors, despised by noble heirs, and secretly watched by unknown forces, Kael becomes the center of a dangerous truth the academy has buried for centuries. Because Astraeus Dominion is not just a school. It is a prison. And Kael may be the key that breaks it open.

In a world split between empires and kingdoms, power is measured not only by armies or crowns but also by those who can control mana, the rare energy that shapes reality. Orven Kale, a boy once full of laughter and hope, saw his life turned to ash at the age of nine. A disastrous mana outburst, sparked by fear and chaos, destroyed his entire village in one night. No one witnessed what truly happened; no one survived to tell the story. Burdened by guilt and the fear of being discovered, Orven slipped into the shadows, becoming just another nameless orphan struggling to survive in society's underbelly. Eight years later, Orven is no longer a scared boy; he is a ghost in the dark, a notorious mercenary known only through whispered rumors and the mysterious carrier pigeons that bring him contracts. Armed with crude weapons and thin mana wires that slice through flesh effortlessly, he kills for money, earning just enough to survive while trying to forget the memories of that bloody night. However, when a contract leads him to eliminate a corrupt noble, Orven’s world turns upside down. In the noble’s study, he discovers a maze of forbidden knowledge: secret documents, dark experiments, and hints of a growing conspiracy across the empire. What starts as a simple job for money spirals into a dangerous web of politics, secrets, and power struggles that could determine the fate of nations. Haunted by guilt, driven by quiet rage, and guided only by his chaotic sense of right and wrong, Orven faces a choice: will he remain a ghost in the dark, or will he allow the world to burn again, this time on his own terms? This story weaves together themes of shadowed morality, hidden wars, and the fragile line between survival and revenge. It follows the rise of an unlikely assassin, who will alter the balance of power, whether he seeks to or not.

In the magical Kingdom of Elarion, young academy student Nathaniel Valen only wanted a peaceful life — but fate had other plans. Nathan must rise beyond guilt, doubt, regret and his own limits to protect those he loves from enemies lurking the shadows — and uncover the truth about who he really is and what's his purpose. Hunted by an organization that knows everything about him, Nathaniel must rise beyond the role of a student and uncover the truth behind his bloodline, his power, and the “lord” pulling strings in the dark. With allies at his side, he faces battles that test not just their strength, but their trust in one another. Every clash brings Nathaniel closer to the answer he both seeks and fears: Who is he truly meant to be? In a world where magic is power and secrets cut deeper than swords, Nathaniel must choose—remain the boy who hides behind laughter and laziness, or become the mage destined to change Elarion’s fate along with his.
