The Observers of the Celestial Veil

Jazzz
In the vastness of existence, where dying stars whisper secrets and forgotten gods slumber beyond the edge of time, the Veil stood as the last barrier between order and oblivion. To most, it was merely a legend—an ethereal shroud separating the known universe from the abyss beyond. But to Kael Veyra, it was the fracture that stole everything. When the Veil collapses, reality begins to unravel. Eldritch entities stir within the rift, their hunger seeping into the fabric of existence. Worlds fracture, time bends, and civilizations crumble under the weight of horrors that should never have been. Amid the chaos, Kael—once a soldier, now a fugitive—embarks on a desperate journey to rescue his sister, Lyra, whose fate is entwined with the very essence of the Veil. But Lyra is more than lost—she is changing. The Veil's collapse has awakened something within her, something ancient and unfathomable. As Kael traverses shattered realms, he is hunted by those who seek to control the Veil’s remnants, worshippers of forgotten deities, and forces that wish to see him unmade. Guided by reluctant allies—a rogue scientist unraveling the mysteries of the Veil, a warrior bound to an oath older than recorded time, and a wanderer bearing scars from a reality no longer his own—Kael must confront entities beyond mortal comprehension. The boundaries between sanity and madness blur as he unravels the Veil’s true purpose. But the deeper he delves, the clearer it becomes: The Veil was never meant to protect reality. It was a prison. And now, something is waking. As Kael’s body and mind twist under the weight of eldritch knowledge, he must make an impossible choice—become more than human to defy an unstoppable cosmic will, or risk losing the last shred of what makes him Kael Veyra. The war for existence has begun. And the Observers are watching.

What if money was power? What if capital was magical? What if income was cultivation? What if a young man decided to destroy this unjust world of inequality and build a better one? That was exactly what Cæ (Cash) sought to do amid grief, anger, and hatred when he lost everything in an accident. Having come from nothing in the slums, his only goal had been to live a good life. By the age of twenty-two, he had finally managed to pull himself out of poverty with a decent job and romance. And then he lost everything he had ever built in an accident that left him in a coma for half a year. The world deprived him of the only person he had truly come to love. The predatory healthcare system burdened him with debt. The corrupt justice system deprived him of justice. The financial system robbed him of everything he owned. For the second time in his life, Cæ had been left with nothing. Well, almost nothing. The accident and the ensuing coma had altered his brain and mind, giving him an extraordinary talent for cultivating and mastering magic. He had been blessed with Acquired Savant Syndrome, a medical condition so rare that there were very few instances of it ever having occurred in history. It gave him endless potential and remarkable power. It gave him the power to destroy the world that he hated from the bottom of his heart. It gave him the power to destroy it and build a better one. And that was exactly what Cæ set out to do. --- This is my second novel, albeit my first time trying my hand at Royal Road. This story is centered around my desire to explore a story with a magical system centered around macroeconomics and politics. As the title suggests, this story will be centered around kingdom-building and progression fantasy. Romance is a coin flip. No smut. No harem. No systems. Hope you enjoy reading this as much as I enjoy writing it.
