There lived a feeble boy on the streets who struggled to survive, but couldn’t give up on life despite how harsh the going got, trying to survive death which loomed closer by the second. Even then, how long can one really survive hunger? So, he reluctantly welcomed his ultimate demise during a heavy rainy afternoon. Thunder crackled and lightning flashed, which casted the shadow of someone near him; as he lifted his gaze to see whom it belonged to, he saw a girl with soulless eyes, holding onto a bloody knife, who greeted him with the peace he so very desired.

Being a princess, Elena has always known that her future was set in stone: an arranged marriage with a noble, a life of duty and obedience, a throne to share with a man she never chose.

She must flee or be trapped forever in a gilded cage. Her nighttime escape leads her to the capital’s underworld, a realm she has never known, ruled by poverty, danger, and the law of the strongest. There, she crosses paths with Raven, a fearless, defiant, and insolent thief. At first, they are allies out of necessity, but as they spend time together, a forbidden bond begins to form between them. In a world where love between two women is an absolute taboo, where a princess cannot fall for an outlaw, Elena and Raven must make a choice: defy a kingdom or lose each other forever.

In a world where ancient Malay martial arts intertwine with mystical forces, Aina Batrisya, a teenage girl of mixed Malay-Chinese descent, discovers an extraordinary gift—she can perceive the Aura of Semangat Energy. Born with only one functioning eye, she is fated to wield a power that ebbs and flows with the cycles of the moon. When a powerful artifact, the Gendang Pahang, is stolen from the National Museum, Aina is thrust into a hidden war between the Persatuan Gerhana, a ruthless syndicate stealing mystical relics, and the Orang Bunian, enigmatic forest guardians. At the heart of this conflict stands Rahim Tempurung, a deranged archaeologist turned warlord, seeking to resurrect the lost kingdom of Gangga Negara using forbidden magic.

From the misty peaks of Gunung Ledang to the ruins of Kota Gelanggi, she must master the Seven Forms of Semangat Energy—Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, Roots, Stars, and Dreams—to reclaim her lineage and prevent a catastrophic war. But as betrayal lurks among her closest allies and hidden truths about her ancestry unravel, Aina faces the ultimate question—will she embrace her destiny as the Pendekar Matahari Senja, or will she be consumed by the very power she seeks to control? With Kerambit Bulan, a sentient crescent-shaped dagger, and the legendary Selendang Sari Nabawi, a sacred cloth woven with the resilience of ancient warriors, Aina must stand against dark forces that threaten not just her homeland, but the balance between the mortal and spirit realms.

In a world where the unseen weaves fate and power is both a blessing and a curse, the awakened are called Phantoms—warriors bound to the spirits, their strength the only shield between humanity and annihilation. Long ago, when the Wraithborn first descended—eldritch horrors that slithered from the void beyond existence—humanity stood at the edge of ruin. The skies darkened, cities crumbled, and no blade nor bullet could harm these spectral abominations. Then came the First Call—whispers from the Spiritscape, a realm beyond mortal comprehension. Those who heard it awakened as phantoms, wielding power borrowed from spirits unseen, pushing back the darkness and carving the first fragile dawn of survival. But survival had a price. Phantoms became the weapons of the world. The Regency regulated the phantoms, dictating their purpose: to fight or be discarded. Yet among them stood the Crowned Phantoms, legends of their kind, those who had ascended beyond the ordinary, commanding the Spiritscape with unrivaled mastery. They were kings among warriors, epitomes of power, the history of the ones revered. Countless yearned to be crowned, to stand above all, to forge their names in eternity. Kael Veyne wanted none of it. Awakened at the age of three—far too young, far too dangerous—Kael understood what others refused to see. Power was not glory. Power was chained. The world loved its heroes when they won but discarded them the moment they failed. He watched as Phantoms bled, as the Regency dictated their lives, as those who sought greatness were crushed under the weight of expectation. So he made a choice. He hid. For years, he lived in the shadows, using his power only to protect himself, refusing to be another cog in the machine. He wanted a quiet life, a life that was his. But fate is never kind to those who defy it. A single moment—an unseen ripple in the fabric of destiny—threatens to unravel everything. The Wraithborn are changing stronger, and no longer bound by the laws that once held them back. The Spiritscape stirs, its whispers louder than ever. The Regency is watching. And in the depths of the unseen world, an ancient prophecy murmurs of an emperor who walks between realms, commanding the spirits themselves. Kael has spent his life running from the inevitable. But when the tide rises and the world begins to shift, when all eyes turn toward him—will he remain a ghost in the crowd… or will the Spirit Emperor rise?

In a land where ancient traditions and mystical forces intertwine, a young warrior awakens in a dense, mist-covered forest—bruised, bloodied, and utterly lost.

A whisper in the wind tells him, “You are not ordinary… You have merely been forgotten.” As he struggles to piece together his identity, he soon realizes he is not just another wanderer. He carries the blood of an ancient lineage, a heritage of power long buried beneath the weight of time. But his strength has been stripped away, locked behind secrets he does not yet understand.

Ren Hayashi doesn’t believe in fate. To him, life is nothing more than a series of choices, a script he refuses to follow. But when he meets Aya Tsukishiro—a transfer student with haunting violet eyes—his world begins to unravel. Aya claims they’ve met before. Not once, but countless times. She speaks of a cycle, of memories lost and lives repeated. She tells him that every time, it ends the same way—with his death. Ren dismisses her words as fantasy. Yet, as strange events begin to twist his reality, as déjà vu turns into something darker, he starts to wonder—what if she’s right? Trapped between the past and the future, Ren and Aya must break free from the unseen force that binds them to a fate they never chose. But as the threads of destiny tighten, Ren is left with one terrifying question: If fate is real, can it ever be defied?
