Rise Of The Abyss

In a world where loyalty is fleeting and power is paid for in blood, Vincenzo Moretti stands at the crossroads of destiny. As the sole heir to the Moretti family, he is thrust into the brutal underworld, where alliances are fragile, betrayal lurks in every shadow, and only the ruthless survive. With the weight of his family’s legacy on his shoulders and the Alliance seeking to crush him before he can rise, Vincenzo must navigate a treacherous path—one where trust is a luxury and power demands sacrifice. But in a game where fear and respect walk a razor’s edge, can he outmaneuver his enemies, forge true alliances, and carve his name into history? The battle for sovereignty begins. And in this war, Mercy is weakness.

Growing up on the streets, Rhys' only instinct was survival—by any means necessary. But when the man who took him in disappears, his search leads him to Haloway, a metropolis plagued by a mysterious madness that turns humans into monsters known as Marauders. After a brutal attack, Rhys is dragged into The Abyss, a brutal hell where he must navigate its deadly trials, where only those who escape are marked as Revenants—beings forged in darkness and power. "The Abyss deprives you of everything, even death, no matter how much you yearn for it."

In a cosmos where cognition materializes, a "astronaut" carrying suicidal memories plunges into tri-layered philosophical crucibles— {Void Cocoons} imprison stardust humanoids with fading memories, {Mirror Abyss} reflects deleted deathbed tears, {Final Sepulcher} exposes the cognitive incinerator of advanced civilizations. When quantumized Being and Nothingness backfires, when philosophical systems manifest as biomechanical organs in mercury vapors, this odyssey through crystal plains and inverted forests becomes a meta-experiment on "whether death is ultimate creation". Every creature embodies philosophical paradoxes, each breath redefines existence, while truth might just be glowing cognitive blocks in cosmic kindergarten.
