Every night, when the world drifts into sleep, a hidden reality awakens. A select few—gifted yet cursed—enter The Forgotten Realm, a world where they transform into animals, each form dictating the power they wield in the waking world. The stronger they are in the dream, the weaker they are in reality, and vice versa. But the dream is more than a mere illusion; it is a battleground where survival is the only law. Elias Crowe, a loner with an uncanny ability to notice what others ignore, finds himself trapped in this nightmarish cycle as a raven—weak in the dream yet powerful in reality. When he stumbles upon an ancient truth hidden within The Forgotten Realm, he realizes the dreamworld is no mere escape—it is the graveyard of past realities, erased from existence through a cosmic reset. As other dreamwalkers hunt one another, consuming their prey to grow stronger, Elias discovers an even darker fate... Hunted in both the dream and the waking world, Elias must choose, fight to preserve a doomed existence or embrace annihilation and forge something new. As the lines between real and unreal blur, one question remains—can he outfly fate itself?

"This is the story of a girl who doesn't truly know who she is. She feels as though she's walking alone on an endless road made of glass - fragile, beautiful, and dangerous - chasing a destination that always slips just beyond her reach. Behind her, she sets fire to every path she's crossed, knowing there's nothing left for her if she turns back." "Inside her, two versions of herself battle silently. One is gentle, sweet-spoken like honey, easily frightened, always smiling, and often in tears. The other is cold - a fearless creature that dances with danger, thirsts for blood, and is consumed by madness. She hates herself with a passion so deep, it burns through her sanity." "She thinks the soft girl inside her has already died... But she hasn't. And one day, the mad, twisted side of her will finally kill whatever's left - leaving behind nothing but a complete monster."

My name is Lucian. I was once a bringer of light, a servant to the noble ideals I once wished to preserve. But now? I am the unholy offspring of life. Maybe I was like this from the beginning. For I am the son of darkness, the foulest sin of life. From now on I am no longer Lucian, the light bringer. I will be reborn as Asura! Master of oblivion and I shall make them regret my unholy birth. I shall unleash the demons of the abyss and drown the realms in blood. I will become a god amongst the demons and punish those that denied me my freedom. I promise to make them writhe in agony just as they made me. I will burn their hypocritical ideals to ash! No!!! I shall burn all the realms to ash until there's nothing left but silence. And then maybe I can finally have my eternal slumber, but until then… I will be the dark in light.
