In the decaying heart of the Aureline Dominion, Karl Redhouse is no longer a forgotten background figure—he is the reluctant hero cursed with Return by Death. Each time death claims him, he is reborn at a predetermined “save point,” trapped in an endless cycle of loss and renewal. For centuries, this cruel fate has forced him to witness countless lives, battles, and betrayals, each rebirth etching deeper scars on his soul. But as the ruins of his crumbling world echo with the secrets of the past, Karl begins to suspect that his curse might also hold the key to his liberation. Driven by a desperate need to break the cycle, Karl embarks on a perilous journey through the forgotten districts of the Dominion. Guided by an ancient tome and the cryptic prophecy of an event known as the Eclipse of the Eternal, he delves into ruined temples and secret sanctuaries where the ancient magics of Curse and Spirit intermingle. With each step, he confronts the duality of his nature—balancing the destructive power of his Curse magic with the transcendent force of Spirit magic—in hopes of unearthing a way to rewrite his destiny. Parallel to Karl’s grim odyssey in the physical realm unfolds the vibrant digital saga of Wraithbound Chronicles. In this immersive virtual world, legendary heroes like Darian Blackwood and Lucien Ashford enact their mythic destinies, celebrated by multitudes and woven into the fabric of popular lore.

Haunted by the echoes of countless past lives and driven by a spark of rebellious hope, Karl sets out to confront the hidden forces that control fate itself. Amid conspiracies orchestrated by secret organizations like the Inverted Sky and the looming threat of an encroaching Mirror Dimension, he must unravel the ancient mysteries of the Dominion. Only by embracing both the light and darkness within him can he hope to shatter the bonds of his cursed immortality and claim a future of his own making. In a world where death is a beginning and every resurrection is a chance to change the course of destiny, Karl Redhouse’s journey is a desperate, solitary battle against time itself—a quest to reclaim life from the clutches of eternal recurrence and to forge a destiny free from the shackles of the past.

Kun awoke in an unfamiliar world, his past nothing but a hollow void. Wounded and weak, he wandered aimlessly until fate led him to the grand kingdom of Evergloam—a realm of splendor hiding deep, twisted shadows. Taken in by House Ravencourt, one of the kingdom’s four ruling houses, Kun learned the ways of nobility, swordsmanship, and leadership. Yet, whispers followed him, servants cast wary glances, and an unshakable sense of otherness clung to him. But Kun’s life was never meant to be peaceful. Darkness lurked beneath Evergloam’s illusion of prosperity, and when betrayal struck, Kun lost everything once more. Left to fend for himself, he was found by House Duskwhisper, a family of assassins and spies, where he was reshaped into something deadlier, something hidden in the shadows. Yet, the past never stays buried. The lost memories claw at him—the voice calling his name, the flashes of a paradise now in ruins, the overwhelming feeling that someone is waiting for him in the darkness. When he finally unravels the truth, Kun learns that he is no ordinary orphan—he is the key to a war far greater than the kingdom of Evergloam itself. Now, trapped between two forces—one that seeks to claim him and another that seeks to erase him—Kun must uncover the truth behind his origins, the fall of the Lost Paradise, and the two Calyxius who hold the answers to everything. One seeks to protect him. One seeks to own him. And in the end, the darkness within Kun may be the greatest threat of all.

Ethan Vale was nothing special. A university dropout, a shut-in obsessed with brutal, punishing RPGs, and a man who knew strategy better than he knew real life. But when his screen flickered with an ominous error message and the world around him shattered, he awoke in a land that should not exist—The Hollow Domain, a place where gods have long since died, where eldritch horrors rule, and where kingdoms of the damned crumble beneath an unending curse.
