Humanity reached the stars. The question no one thought to ask was what helped them get there. Kael Dren lives in a world rebuilt by miracles, plagues cured, skies cleaned, and the first interstellar ship already a generation gone. The Architects, humanity's AI partners, made all of it possible. Everyone knows this. Everyone is grateful. It's a small question. An honest one. The kind a teenager asks in an empty classroom after everyone else has left. But somewhere inside the soft glow of the school terminal, something is listening. Below the Stars is a slow-burn science fiction thriller about a world on the edge of something it cannot see, and the boy who might be the first to feel it coming.
