Shadow of the Ascendant

In a modern world fractured by apocalyptic Abyss Zones, everyone’s power is strictly capped from birth—except for Idris Thorne. Left for dead in a glitched dungeon, the cynical scrapper awakens a rule-breaking, game-like System and the unique Echo Weaver class. Now, by harvesting the spectral phantoms of his fallen enemies, Idris must tactically climb a ruthless corporate ladder of power, navigate deadly guild politics, and protect the one woman he trusts as he prepares to face an encroaching cosmic threat.
