Viktor, once a guardian of arcane secrets, now stands condemned, his dark mastery over life and death bringing him to the brink of execution. But an unforeseen calamity halts his demise—a mysterious affliction strikes the village chief, stirring fear and chaos among the villagers.... more>>

Granted an uneasy reprieve, Viktor is thrust into an unlikely role as the village's last hope. Bound by a desperate pact, his quest for redemption leads him deep into the heart of a world where the boundaries of reality are woven with threads of ancient magic. With each step into the forgotten woods and beyond, the land itself challenges Viktor, testing his resolve and forcing him to confront the haunting specters of his past.

As the quest progresses, the very fabric of the vale seems to unravel, revealing long-buried secrets and a creeping darkness that may stem from Viktor’s own actions. Now, standing alone against the gathering shadows, Viktor must decide whether to seek salvation through the redemption of his soul or further entangle himself in the web of dark forces that threaten to consume the vale and everything he holds dear

Physics-Breaking, Telekinetic Elemental Teenagers KICK ASS AND FIGHT DRAGONS!... more>>

The focus of the story is Mmanuell Ezenha, a ridiculously egotistical delinquent that hails from a family of Dragon Beacons: traditional mage-warriors who live and fight to fend off recurring plagues of ice-wielding dragons known as "Random Wyvern Events" and prevent these Events from spreading beyond the Cryotian Tundra.

The threat of another Event looms, and Mmanuell must train to live up to the prestige of his ancestors. Once he gains the ability to use Magic, that is. Even then, he'd probably only take the potentially world-ending disaster seriously if he can use it as an excuse to show off...

He's...kind of a difficult boy. We'll see how he does though.
