Voidbound: The Star-Eater’s Scripture

Novel Synopsis: *"The Shattered Will Ascendant"*** --- **In a world where magic bends to the strongest will, one child’s birth tears the fabric of fate—and heaven itself trembles.** When the Astral Veil fractures during a once-in-a-millennium celestial alignment, the elven sorceress Lirael defies the gods to save her newborn son, **Otoku**, from a prophecy that demands his death. Her sacrifice leaves him with an inverted mana core—a power that warps reality through raw willpower, not elemental mastery. To the kingdoms of Eldryn, Otoku is either a weapon or a curse: the dwarves crave his magic to reignite their forges, the human dynasties plot to enslave him, and the elusive Kingdom of God watches silently, waiting to reclaim what it fears. Raised in exile by the ruthless High Elder Veyra, Otoku struggles to control his unstable abilities. His emotions ignite cataclysms—melting stone to gold, unraveling time, or summoning voids that devour light itself. But as whispers of the *Codex of Shattered Horizons* surface—an ancient text that once rewrote the laws of magic—Otoku becomes the linchpin in a war spanning continents. From the ash-choked battlefields of human empires to the crystalline spires of elven inquisitors, Otoku’s journey forces him to confront his legacy: - **A father**, Kaelion, now a warlord bonded to Voidspawn. - **A lover**, whose betrayal reveals her as a pawn of the God-King. - **A mother’s echo**, lingering in his soul, urging him to shatter heaven’s throne. As alliances fracture and the Veil crumbles, Otoku must choose: - **Destroy the God-King’s throne** and free humanity from celestial chains. - **Claim it**, mastering godlike power at the cost of his humanity. - **Rewrite existence itse.
