The world is split into realms, and some crossings are never meant to happen.
Asta is a young Nephilim, cast from the Spirit Realm by his sister. He wakes on the shore of an island that has been scrubbed from every map, in a place the wider world has long since stopped believing in. Meanwhile, Alina has lived on that island her entire life. An orphan raised on doctrine instead of family, she has always known that something about her home is wrong, even if the shape of the wrongness has never come clear. Then a stranger washes up on her shore, and the lies that have held the island sealed for generations begin to crack.
What follows is a journey across realms and broken kingdoms, through histories the world was never supposed to remember and powers it was never meant to keep. At the center of it all are the Soules: orbs that grant a wielder the strength of spirits, of gods, of demons. And above those, the Grand Soules, the relics that powerful men hunt because whoever holds them holds the shape of the world: Seven shards from an ancient evil from a previous era.Â
Ancient things are stirring. Because the Soules do not only destroy, they take.AI Usage: No Creative Content is created with AI. ProWritingAid is used for syntax checks.Â

2 releases per week (Monday and Thursdays).
-Lengthy story that's already fully mapped out!
-Story divided in multiple arcs
-Detailed action and landmarks
-No harem plots here. Romance? Absolutely!
-Not a LitRPG or Isekai. Stand-alone world with its own system. It is a progression fantasy though!

AI Usage Disclamer:
Cover was done with ChatGPT. I will replace with a proper artist-created cover in the near future! Absolutely no creative writing is done with AI, I write all my stories locally and leverage ProWritingAid for editing and syntax checks. I do not use the Spark functionality but I do use the Chapter Critique AI to get high-level view of my chapters.
