Guided and manipulated by celestial entities known as the Dreaming Gods, the characters embark on a journey that transcends time and space, exploring themes of ambition, power, fate, and self-discovery. Plot: In a world where reality is as unstable as a dream, the ancient Dreaming Gods begin to stir, their influence reaching across time and dimensions. These gods represent primal forces and cosmic archetypes, and they seek to manipulate mortals for their own ends. As the boundaries between the mythic past, the surreal present, and the speculative future begin to blur, four characters are drawn together, their destinies intertwined. Astraea, once a powerful queen lost to time, wanders invisibly through the modern world, forgotten by history but desperate to reclaim her lost kingdom and fading identity.

Intelligent and ruthless, this boy seeks to forge his own path and take revenge on his father. Finally, he gets his chance when others scheme to get control of the powers lying dormant in his genes. Can he use their schemes to his advantage, and take power into his own hands? How will he use the powers of sin? This story is about his rise to become the Lord of Runes, and it starts on the day he met Luna... *** I gave it both anti-hero and villain tags because, while my MC is an anti-hero in that he searched for personal revenge and freedom, he eventually will start to lean more towards villain/anti-villain behaviour.
