Land of Veil [Progression, Dark Fantasy, Survival, Tragedy]

Would you rewrite fate to save the one you love, even if it costs your life? And if love demands it… would you betray your own brother? Arix lives on a dying island where, every five years, the strongest are sent to the mainland to find a new home. But the mainland is no ordinary land—no human has ever returned from there except one, But he refuses to talk. Now it’s Arix and his group’s turn to cross the sea, knowing the mainland may be their only hope for survival—or their grave. What awaits them isn’t only a new land, it’s something far darker. This journey will test their loyalty, their will to survive, and what they are willing to sacrifice. No one is safe. What to Expect. High Fantasy full of mysteries and secrets. no plot armour to any of the character. Anything can happen to anyone at any time. A new world with it's own rules.  A frightening but interesting adventure. Earlier chapters can have some awkward phrasing and some grammar errors, as this is my first time writing. And English is not my first language. But later chapters are fixed. I am also fixing earlier chapters, but it will take some time.
