Solum Omnium Lumen

.He woke up in a field. No name. No past. Just a weak sigil — barely worth recording. In a world ruled by sigils and ranked magic, Lumen shouldn't matter. But his mark moves. It whispers. And it calls itself a System — a voice only he can hear. Why does it know his name before he does? Why does it warn him of things no one else can see? And why do some monsters call him "the next" before he even learns who he is?

LUMEN DRIFT follows Kairo Vantaris, a lone wanderer in Eclipse City—a neon-lit metropolis adrift between fractured realities. With no memory of his past and a mysterious sigil burned into his hand, Kairo discovers he is a rare “Spectra Sync,” able to manipulate the hidden wavelengths of existence itself. As shifting “Phantom Zones” threaten to unravel the city and monstrous Null Phantoms prey on its inhabitants, Kairo’s powers become both a weapon and a curse. Haunted by fragmented visions and pursued by enigmatic Wardens, Kairo is drawn into a conspiracy that reaches beyond the city’s shifting borders. Each battle pushes him deeper into the heart of Eclipse City’s mysteries, forcing him to confront the truth about his lost identity—and the fate of a world where reality itself can drift, fracture, or fade away. In a place where memories are as dangerous as monsters, and the light is never quite what it seems, Kairo must master his powers before the last remnants of reality disappear into the void.

In the heart of a forgotten magical forest, eighteen-year-old Cira lives a quiet life with her glowing fox companion, Lumen, until she finds a mysterious young man unconscious beneath the trees. He remembers only his name, Elian, and a haunting sentence: “The stars forgot, but the forest remembers.” Drawn to his silence and the strange mark on his chest, Cira offers him shelter. But when the mark begins to glow, fragments of Elian’s past awaken, and the forest reacts. They set off on a journey to unravel the truth, their fates entwined in ways neither expected. They were destined to meet, but by love? Or by fate?... A slow-burn fantasy romance with magic, mystery, and sacrifice.

In the land of Nyxara, where each year splits into thirty days of consuming darkness and thirty of blinding light, the soul is a fragile flame—purified by light, corroded by shadow. The wealthy cling to artificial light, preserving their purity. The poor, the Shaded, rot in the dark. Solum, once a puppeteer and orator among the Shaded, wove himself into prophecy. Charismatic and calculating, he rose through the ranks of The Light of the True Flame, a zealous cult that worships sacrificial purity. Through manipulation and myth, Solum positions himself as their chosen martyr—the First Ember, a soul meant to be consumed by sacred fire and delivered to the goddess Solara. But something goes wrong. Instead of ascending, Solum is rejected by the light. His soul fractures but does not die. From the embers of his immolation, he is reborn—not in the light, but within the dark. In this opposite state, darkness no longer corrupts him—it purifies him. The world’s laws no longer bind him. Now hunted by those who once worshipped him and feared by those who still believe, Solum walks the edges of Nyxara as an anomaly—a soul that thrives in shadow, a heretic of divine design. As the next Turning nears, he must decide: will he be the destroyer of the cycle, or its evolution?

In a forgotten countryside of the Valthern kingdom, where the fields are dry and the air tastes like dust, a nameless orphan survives by silence and stolen scraps, living in the cracks between dying villages and indifferent nobles. Her world is one of hunger, shadows, and survival—until the cycle broke the day a noble’s carriage rolled through her dying village. A fateful encounter with a noble lady—a flicker of silk and gold—unleashed a chain of events that would scatter her world to the wind. When bandits fell upon the village in the dead of night, they left no survivors, no kin, no mercy. Dragged into darkness, she found herself caged among the broken and the lost. Yet, in that pit of despair, darkness, blood and death, an old shaman whispered of a future she would never have imagined, and she whispered a name. From a nameless street rat in a forgotten village to a shadow that moves kingdoms, her journey will span the underworld, the military, the courts, and the deepest chambers of power. What they stole, she will reclaim. What they held, she will one day rule.

Since the Great Fracture and the partial destruction of the Moon, Earth has become nothing more than a wasteland, devoured by corruption. An unknown gigantic sword, emerging from the infinitely distant reaches of the universe, pierced the Unnameable, impaling it upon the star of dreams. Now, humanity lives in a waking nightmare, struggling to survive in a world where Umbra and Lumen wage an endless battle. Cities are built around sacred sites, where Lumen, the only source of purification, is wielded to repel the creeping darkness. But Umbra, with its abominations born of the shadows, relentlessly threatens what remains of humanity. Gaël is stained by this darkness. Umbra flows within him, eating away at his body and mind, and each time he draws upon this forbidden power, he edges closer to madness. He knows his fate is sealed, that his chances of surviving what he is becoming are slim. But rather than cower in fear, he chooses another path. He wants to follow in the footsteps of the Brothers of the Sword. Where the chosen of Lumen purify, the Brothers cut and annihilate. Where the cities hide behind the light, they plunge into the darkness. Feared, revered, and shrouded in legend, these warriors are, for most, nothing more than children’s tales. Gaël knows his life will be short. So before he vanishes, he wants to uncover the truth behind these fables, and if possible, live a brief, glorious saga, cutting down a few abominations along the way.

In the world of Lumen, a land of diverse luminants and warring factions beset by monstrous threats, a daring trio sets out to uncover its secrets.

As they journey through perilous territories and confront ancient evils, their bond is tested, revealing hidden truths about themselves and the light and darkness that shape Lumen's fate.

Before creation, there was a flicker — a single breath in the void, nameless and free. From it rose a god who chose order over memory, law over truth. Now, a new flame awakens. Elun, heir to a forbidden path, bears the echoes of a god who once chose to forget. As Heaven trembles and disciples rise through the Nine Paths — Time, Space, Nature, Death, Humanity, Heaven, Defiance, Evil, and Omnipotence — the world edges toward divine rebellion. Kael, enforcer of the divine will and once friend to the fallen god Lumen, finds himself caught between duty and remembrance. In a universe built on silence and fear, one truth begins to burn through it all: What flickers once, never fully dies.

The stars when align, are said to be destiny. In a world ruled by the Lumen's Will, peace between humans and supernaturals teeters on the edge of collapse. Agira, the Half-Blood Prince, cursed with forbidden powers, hides his identity while surviving in the shadows. When he's ordered to protect Princess Charvi, heir to the Suralis Empire, their fates become dangerously entwined. An ancient prophecy is unearthed. Speaking of an Iris fated to save the world or a shadow heir destined to destroy. Agira and Charvi must navigate fractured alliances, buried truths, and the undeniable pull between them. With war looming and loyalty uncertain, one question remains: Is she the empire's salvation... or its ultimate ruin?

When Dot learns of the return of Queen Amber, she goes to the planet Earth to find five girls, worthy to be Lumen Knights. However, when those chosen prove to be unworthy, she ends up accidentally recruiting the unlikely people for the task: boys Cover unrelated to the book.

Alea Darsha is the last human girl of an ancient lineage known as "Lumen Veritas"—the final light of the human world before creatures of darkness took over the night. However, she knows nothing of this destiny. Alea simply wishes to live a normal life: attending school, drinking hot chocolate, and reading romantic novels. Unfortunately, that is impossible when those around her are not ordinary humans. Every being competes to be Alea's protector. Yet there is one unwritten law in the supernatural world: "If you touch that light too deeply... you will be burned." Behind their affection and protection, Alea begins to realize—it's not just her heart they desire, but also her destiny, which could either open or destroy the gate between two worlds.

In a world where memories are carved into constellations and the dead linger as starlit echoes, Elara Vey is a scribe tasked with erasing the past. Her duty: redact painful memories from the sky under the watch of the Archivists, tyrannical scholars who control history to “purify” humanity’s future. But Elara harbors a treasonous secret—she’s addicted to the echo of her dead sister, a constellation she illegally preserves, clinging to the ghost of a voice that whispers warnings no one else can hear. When Elara discovers a forbidden star-map hidden in the Archives, she learns the truth: the Shattered Atrium, her labyrinthine city beneath a fractured celestial dome, is not a sanctuary but a cage. The gods imprisoned humanity here to protect the universe from their ancestors’ hubris—a primordial civilization that defied death and nearly devoured the stars. To expose the Archivists’ lies, Elara must wield lumen-ink, a liquid starlight that rewrites reality but dissolves her mind with every stroke. Aided by a sentient bone quill that hungers for forbidden truths and haunted by a nomadic star-cartographer, Arian, whose prosthetic arm glows with the light of a fallen god, Elara races to piece together humanity’s buried sins. But the ink’s power comes at a cost: every memory she erases resurrects fragments of the ancients inside her, their voices clawing at her sanity. Meanwhile, the Archivists’ ruthless master, Kaelis, offers her a chance to rewrite the past and resurrect her sister—if she condemns the world to eternal ignorance. As the Atrium’s dome cracks and primordial shadows seep through, Elara must confront the cruelest truth of all: some stars are better left unread.

They call it Resonance — a spiritual frequency only those with absolute will can Wield. Ryker Cain doesn’t just wield it. He commands it. This isn't a story about heroes. It's about those who took the risk, paid the price, and now shape the world with forces no one fully understands. The hunt begins. The light judges all.

No país de Daigo, dividido em cinco reinos entrelaçados por história e conflito, o vigor – a energia essencial da alma – é a chave que separa os magos dos mortais. Cinco jovens percorrem essas terras em busca de Gênesis, o lendário espírito da criação, cuja existência promete poder para moldar o mundo ou salvá-lo do colapso iminente. Izumi, um espadachim atormentado por visões de Excidium, o espírito da destruição, carrega a dúvida entre proteger ou destruir. Leonhart, o líder gentil, guia o grupo com firmeza serena; Lumen, mestre dos relâmpagos, ilumina os caminhos mais sombrios; Niori, com sua curiosidade vibrante, mantém o grupo unido; e Takeru, o conjurador de portais, esconde uma força sarcástica que floresce em batalhas. A jornada os leva por reinos distintos – de montanhas geladas a desertos ardentes – até Kurumo, um reino próspero onde rumores de um mago milenar reacendem a esperança de encontrar pistas sobre Gênesis. Enquanto enfrentam demônios, reinos em guerra e os ecos de um passado perdido, o grupo descobre que Gênesis e Excidium estão mais conectados do que imaginam. Em um mundo à beira do caos, Cataclysm explora o custo da criação e o preço da destruição, onde cada vitória exige um sacrifício e cada escolha redesenha o equilíbrio entre luz e trevas. Até onde eles irão para encontrar Gênesis – e o que estão dispostos a perder no caminho?

In the country of Daigo, divided into five kingdoms intertwined by history and conflict, vigor - the essential energy of the soul - is the key that separates mages from mortals. Five young people travel these lands in search of Genesis, the legendary spirit of creation, whose existence promises the power to shape the world or save it from imminent collapse. Izumi, a swordsman tormented by visions of Excidium, the spirit of destruction, is torn between protecting or destroying. Leonhart, the gentle leader, guides the group with serene firmness; Lumen, master of lightning, illuminates the darkest paths; Niori, with her vibrant curiosity, holds the group together; and Takeru, the conjurer of portals, hides a sarcastic strength that flourishes in battle. Their journey takes them through different realms - from icy mountains to scorching deserts - to Kurumo, a prosperous kingdom where rumors of an ancient magician rekindle the hope of finding clues to Genesis. While facing demons, warring kingdoms and the echoes of a lost past, the group discovers that Genesis and Excidium are more connected than they realize. In a world on the brink of chaos, Cataclysm explores the cost of creation and the price of destruction, where every victory demands a sacrifice and every choice redraws the balance between light and darkness. How far will they go to find Genesis - and what are they willing to lose along the way?

The Luminous Eldergrove In the twilight of magic, roots run deep, and deeper still lies betrayal. In a world bathed in bioluminescent glow, where ancient trees whisper ancestral secrets and every bloodline is etched into the roots of a colossal, living forest, power flows from one eternal source: the Ancestral Lumen. For millions of years, it has granted families unimaginable abilities, shaping civilization through an ever-branching legacy of elemental fury, soulcraft sorcery, and temporal twists. The Lumen is dying, its once, boundless energy siphoned by a mysterious parallel realm. As the magical lifeblood stretches across dimensions, the balance fractures, giving rise to Half-Rooted beings, unstable hybrids of both worlds with powers that defy tradition.

In the floating city of Aether, where metal towers dance with ancient magic and steam engines, lies a secret capable of tearing reality apart. Rael, a young man with a dark past and forbidden blood, is thrust into the eye of the storm when a mysterious power within him awakens—a force that merges human genes with those of the Arkanis, interdimensional entities long considered eternal enemies. After a sudden attack by the radical Lumen Faction, which seeks ancient power, Rael learns that his father, Kael Veygar, was a legendary technomagus who sealed the Aetheris Gate—a portal to the heart of all dimensions—within himself. The seal wasn’t meant to protect Rael, but to save the world from destruction. Hunted as both key and weapon, Rael must face: Lyra, a Lumen Faction agent corrupted by illegal technology, burdened by vengeance and regret. Dax, a genius technomancer obsessed with knowledge, trapped in a game of power. Jyn, a bounty hunter android with a dark past, selling loyalty for freedom. Nexus, an ancient dimension where his mother—the Arkanis queen—is trapped, and where the secret of Kael’s death lies. From the black markets of the Lower District to a Cursed Island surrounded by magnetic seas, Rael risks his life to uncover the truth: that he is a symbol of sacrifice, forced to choose between opening the Aetheris Gate to save his mother or destroying it and losing his humanity. But the Lumen Faction won’t stop there. Armed with dimension-shattering weapons and hybrid soldiers, they force Rael to become a pawn in a war that will decide the fate of all beings—humans, Arkanis, and those in between. Amid betrayals, illusions, and epic battles across dimensions, Rael must answer one question: Does being a hero mean becoming a shadow buried in the dark, or daring to be the light that burns everything away? "Shadows Among the Light" is a dark fantasy tale blending steampunk, multidimensional magic, and philosophical questions about the price of peace. Here, true heroes aren’t unblemished—they’re the ones brave enough to stand at the edge of the abyss, between light and shadow.

A thousand years later, Arthur, a skilled blacksmith in Xezar, is commissioned by King Argos—one of the legendary champions—to forge a sword worthy of a king. As tensions rise and dark whispers stir, Arthur finds himself caught in a web of secrets, where the fragile peace of the world could be on the brink of collapse.
