Beneath the stillness of Paragon’s world, the echoes of an ancient prophecy have begun to resound once more. The Throne of the Heavens has spoken— the children of the past shall return, to claim their right over the Promised Land.

Aethelgard was swallowed by the grey. The Void, a cosmic imbalance twisted into a suffocating reality, has claimed the world, leaving behind only silence, ash, and forgotten ruins. Within this desolate landscape, a small child named Kael awakens, the sole survivor of a village erased from existence. Traumatized and alone, his only companion is a warm, guiding presence he names Vispera – a whisper of light and life in the all-consuming darkness. But Kael is not just a survivor; he is a vessel. Within him lies a raw, uncontrollable power, a pure light born from the Cosmic Equilibrium's desperate struggle against the Void. This power can push back the grey, repel its monstrous manifestations, and perhaps, restore what was lost. Yet, every time the light flares, Kael pays a devastating price – the Bedel. It steals his memories, his emotions, his fundamental awareness, leaving behind aching voids in his soul. Found by a wary group of survivors in a crumbling sanctuary, Kael's secret is revealed, forcing them to confront the terrifying choice: is the child a cursed harbinger of destruction, or their only hope against the Void and its tyrannical master, Lord Corvus? Bound by his tragic power and the ever-growing Debt of Light, Kael must learn to survive in a world that steals not just lives, but souls.

In a perfect world, children would never be valued less because of their genes, especially when those genes grant supernatural abilities. But the world is anything but perfect. The world is ruled by emotion. Hikari is one of those children. Branded as kynenn, he’s sentenced to fight in a tournament where only one survivor is allowed. But before he ever steps into the arena, his life is dismantled piece by piece by the only man he would ever truly come to hate. Kamo destroyed everything Hikari knew—killed the children he grew up with, shattered the cage that housed him, and, in the end, took Hikari’s life—forcing him into a servitude not even Kamo could comprehend.
