With every battle fought and alliance forged, Kael inches closer to fulfilling his destiny—but at what cost?

Will he emerge as the savior the world needs, or will he be consumed by the very magic he seeks to master?

Ashriel Bone died within minutes of his birth due to his lack of mana poles. Without his mana poles, the mana inside and naturally surrounding him suffocated him. In the world of Vitros, mana poles were used to properly circulate mana throughout the body safely. "Boy! Your time has not yet come. You're a new soul, it is much too early for you to rest in the Soul Plane. Here let me help you." With the wave of her hand, 1 of Ashriel's mana poles were opened. "You're possibly the last part of his legacy, I have to save you, but I don't have to give you a life worth living. Death at birth is too early an escape for your life of suffering. Have fun in life as the weakest living thing alive!" -------- This is my first book so my writing skills aren't great. If you see any mistakes feel free to tell me and I'll fix it. :) - Author I don't know the update schedule for the book yet because I'm in college but I'll try to publish 4 chapters a week, 2 during the week and 2 during the weekend. When breaks come, I'll try to do double this.

Death is not always an escape. From our corpses, monster may rise. Necromancy may lay these monsters to rest, but may also bring them closer to life. Follow our protagonist, who falls into both of these categories, for better, or for worse. Will contain gore, touch on mental illness, so be advised. This isn't made for joy.
