Synopsis Of The Rising Tide A Vera Stanhope

Ciel. A boy with extraordinary abilities. Born and raised in the kingdom of dragons. A kingdom where your standing depended on your power. Not much different from many other kingdoms, but with the symbol of their power being dragons, they believed to be the chosen ones. Ceasar Skye. The current king. Sought to dominate the eastern continent with power and fear alone. They stood at the top of the 10 powers of the eastern continent. Unsatisfied by that, Ceasar Skye chose to actively begin invisible wars. Wanting to cause a crisis where he could gain more land, money, and power. With the selection of the candidate system, Ceasar began to find powerful and unique women in order to give birth to someone who can fight his wars. A pawn for him to use. After dozens of years had passed, there were many children who sought to become a candidate successor in the royal Skye family. Many children were born with incredible talents and began leading the invisible wars and proving their worth to their father, however, that didn’t last long. One day Ceasar met a woman who he truly loved. The last of his many wives. A woman with a weak but rare ability. A unique ability to use Alm to control water. A godsent ability with the power to rule over all the other elements and non-elements. On the contrary to the power of her abilities, she had a weak and frail body. She couldn’t fight and her power was only used for parlor tricks. However, because of the rare ability, everyone wanted her. And Ceasar Skye, the king of the kingdom of dragons, fell in love for the first time. Several years passed and two children were born. Ciel and Cece Skye. Two children who showed amazing physical prowess when it came to playing and besting those above their age group. But because of her weak body, the mother died while giving birth to Cece, the second child. With a broken heart and a twisted mind, Ceasar went to meet the children of the only woman he ever loved. Being the ruler he was, he rarely met with his children and only gave orders via others. He was a cold and calculating man who learned loss for the first time. He wanted to mourn the death of his beloved by killing the ones responsible for causing her body to deteriorate. He wanted to kill the children. But as soon as he met them, he changed his mind. They were the spitting image of his beloved. He couldn’t go through with it. So instead, he protected them. For the first time in his life, he wanted to protect something more than his pride. That’s where this story begins. The story of the most powerful human to have ever been born. Gifted with two elements and the blessings of multiple dragons, he embarks on a journey to learn about the world.

In a world where the endless Sea of Essence fuels life itself, every being is born with an Inner Tide—a personal connection to the mystical energy that shapes reality. Warriors mold it into weapons, healers use it to restore life, and dimensional travelers harness it to explore uncharted realms. Kaien was born different—without an Inner Tide. Seen as a cursed anomaly, he was cast aside by society. But when a monstrous force known as the Negative Current attacks, Kaien’s latent power awakens: the ability to steal and wield the Inner Tides of others. Forced into a dangerous game of survival, Kaien must confront powerful clans, cunning guilds, and sprawling empires vying for control over the Sea of Essence’s richest sources. As whispers of war loom on the horizon, Kaien’s stolen strength becomes both his greatest weapon and his darkest curse. In a world where power flows like an unstoppable tide, will Kaien become its master—or drown in its depths?
