They say the world was never meant to be this loud.
Whispers crawl through dreams, shadows stir in corners, and sometimes… the impossible breaks through the cracks of reality.
People call them Otherworlders men and women who awaken powers beyond reason. Some say they're chosen, others swear they're cursed. Whatever the truth is, they are feared as much as they are needed.
But power here is not simple. It is divided into Orders forty-five paths that lead men step by step toward godhood… or madness. To climb an Order is to risk your life, for every advance carries a coin toss between survival and ruin. Half succeed and rise. Half lose themselves, mutating into abominations that devour both flesh and sanity.
Each Order begins at Phase Nine, the lowest step, and ascends toward the unthinkable. Few dare climb beyond Phase Five, for the higher one reaches, the closer the abyss stares back.
The weak see only miracles. The wise see chains.
And the mad? They see gods in the making.
This is a world where lies can shape reality, where miracles come with blood sacrifices, and where those who walk too far may never return as human.
And among them all, there is one path… whispered about in taverns and temples alike.
The Mirage.
A path of masks and illusions, where truth and falsehood dance until neither can be told apart.
It is said that a Mirage does not simply live in the world.
He rewrites it.
