GlaringError here! As I have already mentioned in my author review I am restating it here since I am getting tons of comments about it, that I am more of a reader myself than a writer, I made this novel in an attempt to capture my fantasy world residing in my mind into words.. Writing is new for me.. The premise of my novel is inspired by many great works that I have loved over the years. And some elements I have in my novel that are slightly similar to them but it's just the skeleton of it, the real meat of the plot is entirely my own cooking. Some of the influence that is more noticeable is from The Runesmith (By Kuropon), The King's Avatar (By Butterfly Blue) and Shadow Slave (By Guiltythree). I have immense respect for these legends and I can only hope to follow in their footsteps. To all those who comment just by judging the name, at least give it a chance before letting your opinions known. Thank you.

In the sprawling metropolis of Aerion, where towering spires pierce the sky and ancient magic intertwines with modern technology, a secret society of extraordinary children has existed for centuries. These children, known as the Awakened, possess unique and powerful abilities that manifest when they reach the age of fifteen. Among the newest initiates is sixteen-year-old Kaelan, a brilliant and inquisitive boy with a passion for knowledge. When his power awakens, he discovers he can manipulate the flow of time, slowing it down or speeding it up at will. Meanwhile, his best friend, Anya, a spirited and athletic girl, gains the ability to control the elements and harness the raw energy of nature. As Kaelan and Anya navigate the challenges of their newfound powers, they uncover a sinister plot brewing in the shadows. A powerful cabal, led by the enigmatic Magister, seeks to control the Awakened and exploit their abilities for their own nefarious purposes. With the fate of Aerion hanging in the balance, Kaelan and Anya must join forces with other Awakened to thwart the Magister's plans and protect the world they know. Their journey will take them on a thrilling adventure through the bustling streets of Aerion, the hidden depths of the city's ancient catacombs, and even into the ethereal realm of dreams. Along the way, they will encounter allies and enemies, test the limits of their powers, and discover the true meaning of friendship, loyalty, and the responsibility that comes with being extraordinary. One day, as Kaelan and Anya were studying in the library of their prestigious academy, Arcanum, a strange energy began to pulse through the air. Bookshelves shimmered, and strange symbols appeared on the walls. Kaelan, sensing the disturbance, reached out with his power and slowed down time, allowing him to see the symbols more clearly. "Anya, look!" he exclaimed, pointing to the wall. "These are ancient runes, symbols of power. They're activating!" Anya's eyes widened in excitement. "This is it, Kaelan! Our powers are awakening!" As they delved deeper into the mystery of the runes, they realized that they were not alone. Other Awakened across the city were also experiencing strange phenomena, and it was becoming clear that something powerful was stirring beneath the surface of Aerion.
