Kael Ardent thought he was an ordinary boy. Reincarnated into the world of Elyndra, he grows up surrounded by magic, monsters, adventurers, and stories of distant kingdoms. At fifteen, he leaves his home with a simple dream: become an adventurer and see the world for himself. Nothing extraordinary. At least, that's what he believes. Hidden beyond magic and Skills exist seven mysterious Authorities, each belonging to a single person. Pride.Greed.Envy.Gluttony.Wrath.Lust.Sloth. When the previous bearer of one of these Authorities dies after decades of hiding, the power searches for someone new. It chooses Kael. He doesn't know it. He doesn't understand it. And for a while, he doesn't even realize that the strange things happening around him have anything to do with him. But after an ancient mystery resurfaces, a secret organization begins searching for the new bearer, and creatures that should have no reason to know his name start calling him something he has never heard before. Kael's ordinary life begins to unravel. Because becoming one of the Seven Sins doesn't make him a hero. It doesn't make him invincible. And it certainly doesn't make him special in the way he once dreamed. It makes him a target. And somewhere across Elyndra, the other six bearers are beginning to realize that a new Sin has awakened.
