Layar monitor berpendar lembut, menerangi sudut gelap kamar sempit itu. Jemari Andi menari lincah di atas keyboard, menuntaskan permainan terakhirnya malam itu. Suara gemuruh kemenangan di ruang obrolan virtual menggema, memenuhi headset yang melingkar di telinganya. Di balik layar, ribuan mata menatapnya dengan kekaguman, memujanya sebagai bintang di dunia game. Namun, di balik persona ceria dan cerdasnya di depan kamera, ada rahasia yang tak pernah terlihat. Rahasia yang hanya diketahui oleh mereka yang berani masuk lebih dalam ke dunianya. Andi, sang streamer terkenal, menyimpan hasrat yang tak terpuaskan—sebuah sisi gelap yang tersembunyi di balik layar birunya. Notifikasi di ponselnya berbunyi. Sebuah pesan dari aplikasi itu. Nama pengirimnya disamarkan, tapi isi pesannya cukup jelas. "Jam delapan malam. Hotel biasa. Aku sudah tidak sabar." Andi melepaskan headset, menyandarkan tubuhnya ke kursi. Senyum kecil terlukis di wajahnya. Ini bukan kali pertama, dan jelas bukan yang terakhir. Dia tahu ini salah. Dia tahu permainannya terlalu berbahaya. Tapi bagaimana mungkin dia berhenti, saat setiap pertemuan memberinya sensasi yang tak tergantikan? Malam itu, layar biru dimatikan. Tapi cerita Andi baru saja dimulai.

In a world divided by ancient power and shadowed by the rule of four kings, 17-year-old Dorothy is thrust into a destiny she neither understands nor desires. Born in a quiet village and raised in the safety of an orphanage, her life changes forever when a mysterious old man tells her of the Celestial Eye, a legendary power said to hold the key to unimaginable strength—and a curse that could unmake her very soul. Unknowingly bound to the celestial forces through the old man’s love and an unsealed eye that glimpses fragments of the future, Dorothy embarks on a perilous journey to uncover the truth about her origins and the powers surging within her. Alongside her steadfast mentor Kael, the mysterious hunter Arden, and her childhood friend Mark—whose vast knowledge is as intriguing as it is suspicious—Dorothy must navigate trials of self-discovery, confront her deepest fears, and uncover secrets buried in the ruins of history. But as she delves deeper into the mysteries of the Celestial Eye, Dorothy learns that her world is far more fragile than she ever imagined. Elves whisper of a dying queen, shapeshifters lurk with centuries-old grudges, and a shadowy demon—an entity with a hunger for celestial power—looms closer than anyone suspects. The threads of fate begin to unravel when Dorothy discovers a past written in blood, a future painted in fire, and a prophecy that could either save her world or destroy it. Faced with ancient curses, relentless enemies, and an enigmatic villain hidden among her closest allies, Dorothy must decide if she’s willing to embrace the celestial power within her—or let it consume her entirely. In this tale of trials, betrayal, and the resilience of the human spirit, The Ancient Secret takes readers on a journey where the brightest lights cast the darkest shadows, and even the kindest faces may hide the deepest secrets. Will Dorothy rise to become a savior, or will the celestial forces claim her as their own?
