Takuan Vagabond

“Give me your criminals, your poor; your bonded masses yearning to breathe free; the wretched refuse of your teeming shore; send these, the vagabonds, tempest-tossed to me.

Great monsters the likes of which only populated legend reside here along with an ancient power in the form of primeval masks that bestow superhuman powers upon those who don them, but never forget, such powers come with a terrible cost. Join our protagonist, the estranged prince, Jackul Verdanta, on his quest into the interior to find the seed of this incredible power and the darker secrets hidden within this cursed land.

He lost his home, he lost his only friend, he was cursed to roam the lands alone, to be shunned by society, haunted by memories of what he once had. Then his eyes suddenly opened, and everything became clear, he could see all, nothing could hide from his gaze, it seemed like he had been blessed by the heavens, or could it have been a curse? Navigating a conflict-torn world, filled with deceit and lies, war and honour, he comes to discover what is hidden beneath its surface, secrets hidden under the veil, truths that were never true. As his journey unfolds, his findings reveal that his newfound eyes carry a much deeper secret, and he soon finds himself entangled in a web of ancient danger beyond his imagination.

[Author's Note: I will be posting this on royalroad.com] As an adopted child, Adam was different from his siblings. Despite this, he wasn't isolated and his foster parents treated him no differently than they would with their own child. It was a warm and loving family. A family destroyed by a mysterious explosion that decimated their entire town. Thankfully, he and his 'twin sister' survived the tragedy. However, at sunrise she vanished. Where did she go? No, the question is not right for she would never leave his side. Who took her? And where is she? Bearing the guilt and sorrow of losing her, he roams Azaquell in search of what he has lost. ____________________________ The art in the book cover is not mine, but belongs to "RainNoir", an artist who makes aesthetic art. I actually love his style for, well, obvious reasons I mean just look at it. Adam's appearance is actually inspired by Chrollo Lucilfer (with some of my own calibrations), a character in HxH and Mister RainNoir here drew him beautifully. To the creator, if you don't like me using this art please contact me on discord (Ken Ken#2675) so I can take it down.

Our protagonist is of the “vagabond” species. A pretty cool creature, but nothing compared to humans and their inventions. Humans can go eat my sawtooth branch. The world is constructed of floating island. Above and below is the “void” as all call it. Nobody has returned from the void yet, so they’re assumed dead. Are they really dead? Yeah, probably. Travel is hard - it requires flight, cause how else would you get between the floating islands? That means our protagonist’s species, the “vagabond” as I’ve established, can also fly.
