The son of the great sorcerer

Determined to stand against the looming threat, he devotes himself to protecting the land he calls home. Yet, betrayal slithers through the ranks of those he once trusted. Friends turn into foes, and the woman who once whispered cryptic warnings vanishes as if she had never existed. Only two remain by his side—an ancient dragon and a growing pup, both no more than children in his eyes. Then, the truth begins to unravel. The dragon speaks to him—not with words, but within his mind. So does Fri, the growing pup who is far more than he seems. He soon learns that Fri, too, is from another dimension, a realm unlike any other. Across the vast expanse of the cosmos, countless stars harbor planets teeming with unique species—beasts, elves, Gore’s, and civilizations beyond imagination. Each world follows its own path, but one truth binds them all: an ancient darkness is stirring, consuming all in its wake. Through Fri and the dragon. must seek out the last survivors across the stars to stand against the encroaching void. Yet the greatest revelation comes from his own bloodline. His father, once believed to be the great sorcerer who sought to destroy the empire, was not a villain, but an anomaly—one who stood as an equal to both darkness and light. Neither force could claim him, for he balanced the scales between them, making him a threat to both. For this, they bound him, locking him away for disrupting the very fabric of dimensions. His father was not a destroyer, but a traveler—one who walked between worlds, seeing the truths others feared to face. Now, Arren stands at a crossroads. Branded a monster, feared for the power that flows through his veins, and burdened with a truth that shatters all he knew, he must choose. Will he follow in his father’s path, embracing both light and shadow? Or will he forge his own fate, defying the will of gods and men alike? One thing is certain—the war is far from over, and Arren may be the only one who can shift the tide across worlds.
