One hundred and twenty years ago, the world ended. Not with fire or war, but with the arrival of a unknown god.

No one knows where it came from, nor why it descended upon Earth. Only that its presence twisted reality, birthing countless abominations that poured across the planet and wiped out nearly half of humanity in a matter of years. Entire continents fell silent. Cities became graveyards. Civilization stagnated as survival became the only law.

Then, just as suddenly as it appeared, the god vanished.

What it left behind was a broken world.

Sixty percent of Earth is now a forbidden land—infested with monsters, warped ecosystems, and ruins filled with relics far more dangerous than any beast. Humanity has survived through bloodshed, evolution all while relying on a new hope: awakened individuals who manifest supernatural abilities and grow stronger by facing the horrors beyond the walls.

Everyone has their own path to power.
Some train.
Some inherit bloodlines.
Some Through Trial and error.

Eli is no different.

After a near-fatal encounter, the protagonist discovers his own Legacy—his very own Power. As he studies his own power throughout thr story, he finds fragments scattered throughout the ruins—objects that resonate with his very existence. By absorbing them, his Body, Mind and Soul mutates to something... forbidden. His strength grows unnaturally, defying established limits and knowledge. 

Yet with every fragment he claims, the world seems to react.

Nightmares intensify.
Monsters grow restless.
Ancient ruins awaken.

Unbeknownst to him, these fragments are not relics of the old world, nor remnants of lost technology. They're something far worse, holding the power to end what the Unknown God had started.

And the more fragments he gathers, the closer he comes to completing something that should never exist again.

In the end, Eli walks a dangerous path—one that blurs the line between savior and harbinger of ruin.

For in a world built upon the wrath of a unknown god,
the greatest threat may not be the monsters lurking in the dark…

…but the heir unknowingly destined to bring godfall to its end.

All awakened beings are defined by three core pillars:


Aether Core Stage: how much power one can wield


Legacy Rank: the inherent potential and ceiling of one's ability


Aether Mastery Rank: the depth of control and skill in using one's Legacy


Skill, will, and experience determine how well these pillars are used.


An Aether Core is the organ that stores, refines, and circulates Aether. It can be strengthened through training, combat, and refinement, but reckless use risks collapse or blockage.


Simplified, its how much fuel you can store to power your abilities. 


A Legacy is the inherent form a person's power takes. Its Rank is assigned once at awakening and can never be changed.


(Skill, versatility, and unlocking potential within a Legacy)


Aether Mastery measures how deeply one understands and controls their Aether and the phenomena tied to their Legacy. Unlike Legacy Rank, Mastery is trainable and can grow through experience. Each stage unlocks new facets/skills of the Legacy without raising the inherent ceiling.


Simplified, a higher Aether Mastery leads to more abilities tied to one's Legacy.


Aether Core Stage: determines raw capacity and survivability.


Legacy Rank: determines maximum potential, ceiling, and inherent limits.


Aether Mastery: determines how much of the Legacy is unlocked and controlled.


 A higher Legacy Rank always has a higher ceiling, but a low Mastery means abilities are underutilized.


No amount of training can raise Legacy Rank, but Mastery can grow indefinitely within that ceiling.


Legacy Rank = "how powerful your ability can ever be"


Ether Mastery = "how fully you can use your power"
