ASTASHICA: The Rise of Tlandar By Karen Menjivar When the ancient Xothek Galaxy devoured itself in a brutal civil war, six visionary chieftains seized their last chance at survival. They hijacked a mighty warship, the Defiance Vanguard, and fled through a collapsing wormhole — carrying the remnants of their people, forbidden technologies, and the sentient AI grid known as XENOVIS. On the other side lay Astashica, a wild, uncharted world where they would forge a new beginning from the ashes of their lost civilization. Centuries later, Astashica stands on the brink of another apocalypse. Young Tlandar Varn, a humble cattle rancher from the village of Verdantis Nexus, sees his peaceful life reduced to embers when marauders strike without warning. Forced into exile with his family, Tlandar is chosen by the very spirit of Astashica to defend a world that has never known true peace. Guided by the legendary operative Akashma Xil’ha, Tlandar trains to master the ancient Formicron mechas — towering war machines from the Xothek’s darkest age. But what truly sets him apart lies deep within his DNA: a unique mutation, born from ancient Asemeri gene-splicing experiments, that grants him the rare ability to connect with technologies and forces long thought lost. His hidden legacy makes him the one hope to unite a fractured people against a rising tyrant. Now, as ruthless chieftain Cosmus plots to unleash the last of the Azurevat cataclysmic missiles and seize dominion over all Astashica, Tlandar must rally the scattered factions, reclaim the shattered alliances, and awaken the buried power that lives within him. From flooded marshlands to storm-wracked sanctuaries, he will stand at the heart of an ancient world where sentient machines guard forgotten secrets and monoliths control the skies. In a land where myth and memory blur, where lost empires still breathe through hidden AI and genetic legacies, The Rise of Tlandar is an epic saga of rebellion, sacrifice, and the indomitable spirit that refuses to die — a sweeping tale of one young protector destined to lead his people out of ruin and into a new dawn.

...a school trip... a mysterious light... a fantasy world... monsters and magic... an introverted hero. A simple, familiar plot, with no surprises... and that's fine.
