Chronicles of the Hollow Realms (Volume 1 'The Gate of Thorns') // Archive Dystopia

In the twilight age of Varnhollow, beneath blood-red moons and lifeless forests, walks a figure known by the elders and fading stars: Vaelorian the Unbound. Once a high thaumaturge, now exiled for studying a grimoire scribed by a dying god. His body remains whole, but his soul was fractured, leaving only a tether of will and purpose: to descend to the underrealm beneath the Gate of Thorns, and reclaim what was lost. For deep beneath stone and spell, in the dreaming root of the world; the only voice that still remembers his true name.
