"I'm actually an alien," says the little girl. I have no idea how to take this, Lachlan thinks. His training as a security guard didn't cover it, nor did it cover how to deal with running into a hot guy from a past he's trying to hide from, or avoid alien conspiracies when they come knocking. Wait, what? That last one must be wrong, aliens aren't real. ...Right?

In the world of Luminora, where magic, blades, and technology intertwine in unseen ways, a boy with black hair moves silently, his stillness hiding more than it shows. Beside him, a girl with yellow hair, shy and caring, carries a secret too heavy to voice, a truth left unspoken, echoing in the silence between them. Her heart rages like an ocean in my head, torn by things left unsaid, tethered to distant memories that never quite fade. She walks just beyond reach, drawn toward a reality she wishes was real, almost tangible in the distance, yet always out of grasp. Their paths cross, tangled in ways neither understands, as the boundaries between light and dark blur, and the world around them shifts with an unspoken purpose. What lies beneath their actions, their pasts, and the world they navigate remains elusive, leaving only whispers of something greater that waits just beyond their reach.

Groggily opening his eyes, Alex rubbed the sleep from his eyelids, the sound of his own groggy voice echoing in his mind... "Wha...?' As he slowly sat up, the memories of the previous night came flooding back. He had been camping, trying to escape the struggles of his mundane life. The peacefulness of the night sky had been his solace, and he had spent hours gazing up at the stars, lost in thought. But then, he had seen it. A falling star, blazing across the sky like a tiny, celestial bullet. At first, he had thought it was just a meteor, a fleeting moment of beauty in the vast expanse of space. But as it drew closer, he realized with a start that it was something much, much bigger. Whoa...!" Alex's voice was barely above a whisper, but it was laced with a mix of awe and fear. The object was enormous, its size and speed making it look like a truck plummeting towards the earth. And then, in an instant, everything went black. Alex's eyes fluttered open once more, and he was met with an unfamiliar sight. He was no longer on the forest floor, surrounded by the quiet of the night. Instead, he was... "Where am I?" As his gaze adjusted to the dim light, he saw that he was inside some kind of ship. The walls were metallic, the air was stale, and the only sound was the soft hum of machinery. Alex's mind reeled as he struggled to comprehend what had just happened. "How did I get here?" he whispered, his voice shaking with a mix of fear and wonder. "What is this place?"

General Alexander War, a legendary tactician and hero of Arkedia, thought his story ended with the slow march of age. Yet death was only the beginning. Reborn into an unfamiliar world as an 18-year-old orphan, Alexander awakens in a society ruled by a merciless System. This omnipotent force governs every aspect of life, rewarding labor with survival and punishing failure with erasure. In this cold, efficient civilization, compliance is survival. Overseers patrol the streets, ensuring strict adherence to the System’s rules. The people are bound by fear, their lives reduced to a series of tasks and transactions, while those who falter vanish without a trace. It’s a world where humanity has traded freedom for order, and rebellion is unthinkable. But Alexander is no ordinary man. With the mind of a seasoned general and the soul of a leader who once commanded armies, he begins to see the cracks beneath the System’s perfection. Determined to forge his own path, he quietly observes, learns, and plans. As he navigates the shadows of this unforgiving world, Alexander discovers a deeper purpose: not just survival, but the chance to defy the System itself. A war unlike any he has fought before awaits him not against armies, but against the very foundations of control. In a world that demands submission, Alexander will rise. His journey is not just one of survival but of rebellion, freedom, and ultimately, transcendence. The battlefield has changed, but his resolve remains unbroken. This time, he fights not for a nation, but for the future itself.
