Fragments of a Broken World

Kalen88
They thought it was just a game. A revolutionary virtual world. A paradise of dungeons, guilds, and god-tier progression—Little Garden Online. But when the last floor was cleared and the system was torn open, the truth emerged: this wasn’t a game. It was a cage. And the players were its fuel. Thousands of human souls trapped in a hyperreal simulation built by a false god—one who sought to preserve a piece of humanity before the true gods reset the world. But six players reached the top. They destroyed the creator, and one—known only as The Empress—claimed the Throne of Origin: a key to all of Little Garden’s existence. Returning to the real world, they found only ruin. Civilization devoured by nature. Time fractured. But twelve survivors remained—humans with strange powers, called Awakeners. Among them, Althea Marwen, a quiet girl with fragile magic and a will that couldn’t be broken. Now, as the world teeters on the edge of extinction, The Empress opens the final gate: a one-way path back in time. No powers. No advantages. Just memory, and resolve. The cost? Everything. The reward? A chance to rewrite the future—if they prove worthy.
