The Rise of Anthesis King - The Grand Draft

Aetheris was supposed to stay sealed.For thousands of years, he slept as a human, reborn again and again with no memory of what he was. The seal was unbreakable—designed to contain a being so dangerous that his mere existence threatened the world's foundations.But when a dark cult performs a ritual using his parents as sacrifice, the seal shatters. Aetheris awakens as an Anthesis—a primordial being whose power operates outside the rules that bind reality. He possesses authorities older than the current Gods. He can control space. He can command lightning. He can see in ways mortals cannot.Now he's hunted by Gods who fear him. Bound by a woman whose love became obsession. Challenged by one who chooses him despite knowing the cost.Aetheris must discover who he is—and decide what he's willing to sacrifice to reclaim his throne.
