In a world shattered by endless wars, drowned in the blood of forgotten empires, and ruled from the shadows by slumbering gods and silent cults, a man awakens in a body that does not belong to him.
His name is Vance—or so he remembers.
Thrust into a realm where faith is weaponized, power is ascended through madness, and the divine slumbers beneath the skin of reality, Vance finds himself hunted by histories not his own and memories that refuse to die.
The world offers no mercy.
Ascension is the only answer.
Yet every step upward is paid for in a loss of self.
Faced with echoes of lives long dead and truths that should have remained buried, Vance must choose:
To evolve… or to perish.
But in a universe where gods are broken and sanity is currency, the price of survival may be far greater than death.
