Manifestation: Anomaly

Manifestations are ordinary. Abilities shaped by emotion and will are woven into everyday life—used to heal, to build, to live. The world adjusted. Expectations followed. Kayde never manifested. Three years after a choice that still echoes in his chest, he moves through a society that has already decided what he is worth. When everyone else learned how to become “more,” he stayed the same. It feels like the world forgot him. But what if it isn’t the world that’s wrong? What if Kayde is the one who doesn’t understand who he really is?
