In a world where magic is a hidden undercurrent flowing beneath the surface of society, humanity has evolved beyond its primitive roots, integrating powerful enchantments, ancient beasts, and supernatural phenomena into their everyday lives. But for all the grandeur, the power of magic is still a mystery to most... until a young man named Caelan Ardent steps into the world with an unfathomable, god-like power. Caelan is no ordinary sorcerer. Born with the legendary "Immortal Arcana" etched into his soul, he possesses knowledge and strength that transcends the very laws of magic. With the ability to control time, bend elemental forces, and manipulate the fate of those around him, he is the ultimate force in a world teetering on the edge of chaos.

When a malevolent faction, "The Harbingers", emerges from the shadows, threatening to plunge the world into a war between the magical and the mundane, Caelan is reluctantly pulled into the conflict. As the world’s greatest secrets unravel, Caelan must confront not only the enemies seeking to claim his powers but also the dark forces that threaten to disrupt the delicate balance between reality and magic.

**Synopsis:** In a world where the Seven Grandmasters wield unrivaled power, controlling politics, land, and wealth through their ancient sects, peace is a fragile illusion. Protected by their divine lineage and mythical "Rim" creatures, the Grandmasters stand as humanity's last line of defense against the demonic beasts that lurk in the shadows. But all that changes when a nameless wanderer stumbles upon a forbidden relic buried in the heart of a cursed battlefield—two ancient, malevolent eyes that pulsate with unspeakable energy. Drawn by an inexplicable urge, he consumes the eyes, unleashing a power older than time itself. A dark force that warps reality, bends time, and defies the authority of gods. The sky trembles, fissures crack the earth, and the sects are thrown into chaos. The Grandmasters, once feared and revered, sense a force that surpasses even their divine might. The gods themselves peer down from the heavens, alarmed by the resurgence of a power they had sealed away eons ago—the power of *The Eclipsed One,* harbinger of destruction. As monstrous creatures long thought extinct rise from their slumber, civilizations crumble, and betrayal festers within the sects, the wanderer must confront a terrible truth: is he the world's savior or its doom? In a tale of corruption, redemption, and celestial warfare, the fate of the world rests on the choices of one man—a man who now holds the key to reshaping the order of existence.

And as the silent weight of his deception grows, so too does the peril that lurks in the shadows. Haunted by a past that isn’t his and hunted by forces beyond his understanding, Theo must navigate a world where fate is bound to the stars and power demands sacrifice.

Being the first, above even the creator and devs of the game. But one question, once he completed the current content available on the game, why did he woke up in the middle of nowhere ? - Author's note : This story contains heavy sex scenes, more than three chapters each, and somewhat regularly. They will also start somewhat soft and slowly approach more uncharted territories, going through a lot of tags that can be seen on adult sites, positions and further kinks if not fetishes. I do plan to make it somewhat enjoyable for everyone, and if you don't like a certain scene, you're free to skip it as there won't be any story text related in them, and if there is, it will be minimal to the point where it can be ignored. There isn't a specific publication dates for the chapters, I'll just post them once I finish writing them, can go to three to four chapter a day, to even zero for a few of them or during festivities, as I don't know what tomorrow is made of and I am certainly not a professional at this. Lastly, I hope you find your pleasure beyond this introduction and what lays, waiting for you, further in the story !
