Shattered Soul, Boundless World

Asher was a man who had already lost the war. His family—gone. His purpose—shattered. His will to live—reduced to embers. Betrayed by those he trusted and broken by a past steeped in blood, he made a single, desperate choice... and vanished into the unknown. But the void is not silence. Not here. He awakens in a world torn apart by ancient cataclysm, where floating shards of land drift through a sky laced with raw magic. Ruins mutter to themselves in dead languages, and power thrums beneath the surface like a second heartbeat. In this fractured realm, where kingdoms rise atop Aether Veins and shadowed things stir behind the Veil, Asher must face more than monsters and warlords—he must confront the wreckage of himself. Guided by riddles, haunted by memory, and bound to a mark he doesn’t understand, he walks a path of blood and fire, forging a new legacy from the ruins of the old. The deeper he goes, the clearer it becomes: this world doesn’t need a hero. It needs a survivor. A rebel. A reckoning. And Asher may be all that’s left.
