The shadow beyond the red light
In the heart of a stormy night, a mysterious red light pierces the sky — and with it, Vian’s life changes forever. Drawn by an unexplainable pull, he follows the strange light deep into the woods, only to be struck by a shadowy hand that drives through his chest. When he opens his eyes, he finds himself in an unfamiliar land — a place known as Therinvale, where magic flows like air, and danger lurks beneath every smile.
Lost, confused, and without powers in a world ruled by strength and sorcery, Vian begins his journey not as a hero, but as a stranger. Rescued by a kind-hearted girl named Lisa, and haunted by glimpses of a silver-haired warrior who saved his life, Vian sets out to uncover the secrets of this world — and of himself.
As elite fighters prepare to face dark threats beyond the city’s walls, Vian, the powerless boy from Earth, dares to dream of joining them. But what is the true nature of the shadow inside him? And why does his presence unsettle those attuned to magic?
In a realm of ancient forces, forgotten gods, and bending realities, Vian’s descent is only the beginning of a story that will shake the foundation of both worlds.
