THRONE: ZERO

THRONE: ZERO "On that day... two people died. One simply stopped breathing. The other stopped being human." Kaelen never felt fear the way everyone else did. He never had a reason to — until the day gunmen stormed his university looking for someone, and the chaos revealed exactly how different he really is. By nightfall, someone he loves is gone, his hands remember things he wishes they didn't, and a stranger with a gentle voice has made him a promise: we'll meet again. Now he's a fugitive, hunted for a murder he never committed, stalked by people who seem to know everyone he's ever loved — and he's beginning to suspect that none of this happened by accident. In a world that looks almost exactly like ours — phones, traffic, morning coffee, career ladders — a hidden layer of power moves behind every headline. Conspiracies older than any government. Supernatural forces born into some, and handed to others at random, the moment someone else dies. Four continents on the edge of a war none of them fully understand the real cause of — and Kaelen is caught in the middle of all of it, with no idea how deep it actually goes. How is he supposed to live through a hell like this? THRONE: ZERO is a dark, character-driven story about identity, complicity, and what it costs to survive in a world that was never built for people like him. No easy answers. No safe endings guaranteed. Updates: Daily through the end of Volume III. After that, twice a week here on Royal Road — the story keeps going without a break on Patreon for anyone who doesn't want to wait. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Thank you for reading THRONE: ZERO. — Zamoon
