The kingdoms of Eldoria have known centuries of stillness since Ulrich the Mad—an Elven tyrant twisted by dark magic—was sealed beneath the roots of the world. But when Iyonmana, conduit of the Sun Tree and matriarch of Andradia, receives a vision of his return, the other conduits dismiss it as a fading flame of an old war.
Refusing to stand idle, she sends her two great granddaughters—Idia, a blazing knight with a warrior’s temper, and Uwa, a quiet archer whose water magic runs deeper than it seems—to investigate the growing signs of unrest. Joined by the Moonflower prince Illythand the enigmatic mage Aelar, they must navigate hostile lands, divine politics, and elemental trials to uncover what may be a rising threat… or a fire that never truly died.
But something ancient is stirring.And if they fail, Ulrich will rise again.
In a realm of ancient trees, political courts, and buried gods, two heirs of the Sun Tree must uncover a truth older than their blood.
"To tell you a story, you'd need to know how different things were back then. The world was filled with creatures who could destroy us at any moment. Some people even managed to control them, not that they stood a chance. Anyways, there were also gods and goddesses who sometimes watched over us-not all of them were good people, keep in mind. With that out of the way, let's begin..."
A world where monsters from every mythology roam—gods, demons, and beasts once thought to be legend. Humanity’s last hope lies in those born with the power to summon weapons from their souls, each one shaped by will and purpose.
When a mysterious force pulls strangers from across the globe into a frozen wasteland, they arrive with no answers—only their powers and the monsters hunting them. Forced to survive together, these unlikely allies begin a journey that will forge deep bonds... and reveal a hidden enemy that’s been watching all along....
Later on, a fractured soul battles the remnants of a power he doesn’t fully understand. Once a shadow of someone else, he now carries the weight of a past he never chose and a future he can’t outrun.
Alongside others like him—fragments of identity, warriors of circumstance—he faces a growing darkness that wears his face and speaks in his voice. A figure that doesn’t just threaten the world, but twists it, breaks it, and narrates it like a cruel story unfolding.
As allies become uncertain and enemies turn familiar, lines blur between reality and illusion, memory and manipulation. What began as survival becomes a slow unraveling of self, where guilt is weaponized, and peace is only ever temporary.
But even fractured souls can fight back.
