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.

For centuries, the noble House Concordia, humanity’s torchbearers, guided the world through its darkest days. Their sacrifices drove back the malevolent force known only as the darkness, banishing it from the material world in the cataclysmic Battle of Scarlet Rivers. But victory came at an immense cost: the death of their revered leader, the Sword Saint, and the fracturing of humanity’s unity. In the centuries that followed, greed and hubris consumed the fractured factions of mankind, leaving the Concordia family shunned and their warnings ignored. Now, in the year 677, the darkness stirs once more, its hunger for chaos and despair reignited by humanity's corruption. As cracks tear through reality, unleashing hordes of demons upon the great city of Emberfall, the darkness manifests in a terrible, humanoid form—arrogant, cruel, and unstoppable. The nobles of the Kaizen Empire, consumed by their own self-interest, panic in the face of their reckoning, while the common people fall victim to unthinkable horrors. At the center of this unfolding apocalypse stands Eryndor of Concordia, the young head of his house. Dismissed as naïve for clinging to ancient prophecies, he has spent years pleading with humanity to unite against the darkness. Now, with the return of his family’s ancient enemy, Eryndor must rise to his legacy and rally what remains of humanity before it’s too late. But to fulfill his family’s oath, Eryndor must face impossible odds, forge alliances with those who once betrayed his house, and confront the truth of what it means to sacrifice for the light. As the forces of darkness spread across the land, "The Light Will Never Fade" is a story of shattered hope, enduring legacies, and the power of selflessness in the face of despair. Will Eryndor and those who stand with him rekindle humanity’s flame, or will the darkness extinguish the light forever?
