Akankah ia menemukan kunci untuk menghentikan badai yang telah menghancurkan segalanya? Atau akankah ia tersapu oleh amukan pasir seperti mereka yang telah datang sebelum dirinya? Di dunia di mana angin membawa bisikan masa lalu dan pasir menyembunyikan kebenaran, Evran melangkah menuju takdir yang belum dituliskan.

So picture this: you wake up in a rusty, beetle-shaped contraption sliding sideways across a murder-dune in a place called Scarragon. Your shoulder is basically shredded toast, your memory's fuzzy, and there’s absolutely no customer service in sight. That was Grahilo’s morning. Then things got weird. After limping through the desert like a very angry tumbleweed, he spots a glowing green orb chilling in the sand like it’s waiting for a meet-cute. The orb hypnotizes him. Forces him to swallow it. Cue excruciating cosmic body reboot. There’s screaming, convulsing, and then—boom. New upgrade unlocked: silver hair, neon eyes, and gamma veins that look like someone installed a nuclear reactor in his circulatory system. After that? He tests out his fancy powers. Accidentally punches the ground so hard it opens an ancient ruin. Then he raises his hand and materializes a black dagger with green runes and “probably haunted” vibes. Grahilo officially levels up from "lost desert guy" to "walking superhero origin story." Kirigaar, the city that kicked him out like last season's leftovers? They’re about to regret that. Grahilo vows to leave Scarragon completely and start fresh in a new country. One small problem: the country is dealing with portal chaos. Monsters, energy signatures, things that snarl and break physics. Naturally, Grahilo decides to join the local defense force. And while he might not understand the rules, he’s got glowing eyes, punch magic, and void daggers. He’s the guy they didn’t ask for—but might just need. Expect mystical relics, combat training, teammates who aren’t sure if he's a threat or a miracle, and one gamma-born outcast rewriting his fate with every sarcastic thought and every step forward.

The Great Abyss of Herto “Some secrets were never meant to be unearthed.” In the remote desert city of Herto, life orbits a bottomless chasm known only as the Abyss—a vast, layered wound in the world where relics of lost civilizations pulse with power, and monstrous things stir in the dark. No one knows what lies at the bottom. No one has ever returned to tell. Gruis, a bright-eyed bard armed with a flute and fragile courage, descends alongside a crew of delvers—explorers and misfits, each chasing glory, redemption, or something far more dangerous. But every layer of the Abyss strips away certainty: forests that shift, spiders that hunt in silence, and relics that whisper things best left forgotten. Mystery, dark humor, visceral combat, and gut-wrenching emotion thread through a story that blends fantasy adventure with psychological descent. This is a world where beauty masks horror, and even laughter might echo with sorrow. Will they reach the bottom? Will they survive what waits there? Or worse—will they understand it?

"Where did it all go wrong?" "I was supposed to be a king. But now… I'm stuck wandering for the last three hundred years." Neva sighed softly. "Oh, I know. I really should have listened to Uncle Nitin. Breaking the law never ends well." Neva recalled and felt deep regret. One foolish mistake when he was young and ambitious led him down a path where he no longer knew what was real or fake. Was he really a Domain Lord who had countless nations under his rule? Or was he driven mad by the fog? If he was so delusional, why are all his ends losing to his hallucinations? Neva sighed and turned his head. "Get away from me! Neva, America is bullying me. She lost the war fair and square!" The United Kingdom said, clutching her crown. "That's fake news!" America retorted as she filled her Desert Eagle with a fresh magazine. I never lost." Neva's face twitched as he clutched his head. "I have to be hallucinating. I have to be."
