Synopsis
Underneath the Suit: The Fractured Vow “Where memory fractures... the vow still stands.” -->The name was erased. The vow wasn’t. Beneath the suit, something awakens. Beneath the badge, something refuses. In a fractured future where cities run on corporate lies and gods sleep beneath synthetic moons, two lives spiral toward each other—bound by blood, buried power, and a war the world tried to forget. Ryuu Takeda, a technician in Sector 9, lives quietly—trying to shrink beneath his rage. By night, he fights in circuits like PIT, chasing rumors of his missing brother. His past is erased. His brothers are gone. Only a bloodstained watch keeps him tethered. The system marks him as dangerous. The streets whisper a name he never chose. And something inside him wants to burn through the silence. Audrina Cromwell, an elite Eclipse enforcer, lives by protocol—until she breaks ranks to save a child. Her locket opens for the first time in years. It bleeds shadow, hums with memories not her own, and calls her by a title she doesn’t understand. Now she’s hunted for something even she can’t explain. Cults chant forbidden names. Knight relics tremble in the dark. And power stirs in those, the world forgot how to control. As divine monsters, broken myths, and AI ghosts converge on a buried truth, Ryuu and Audrina must decide if the fire inside them is inherited, stolen...or something new. Because something ancient is bleeding through the cracks. And someone—maybe both—is carrying a vow the world tried to erase. A vow was broken once. The gods bled because of it. Two lost souls who were never meant to meet. One shattered prophecy. And a war no one remembers—until it remembers them. They weren’t born to save the world. They were built to survive what comes after. Not chosen ones—just broken ones fate failed to erase. —— Power System: AURA Aura doesn’t awaken from destiny—it breaks loose when the soul stops kneeling. It is defiance made visible. The scream of will, shaped into motion. When belief becomes will—and will becomes a weapon. The stronger the soul, the brighter the burn. But some flames consume. Aura awakens when the spirit breaks its chains. But some chains bind gods. And some gods remember. Suit up. Break. Burn. Become. —— Core Elements: Cyberpunk meets Divine Horror Dual Protagonist Psychological Spiral: underground fighter & haunted officer No Systems. No Prompts. No Mercy Aura vs. Borrowed Power: soul-forged will vs. divine residue Urban Mythpunk: dreamfolds, Knight relics, shadow-driven warfare Slow-burn convergence, fractured identities, sacred violence Secrets that whisper before they scream —— Author’s Note: Lo, brave reader—thou who wander’st where shadows writhe and oaths lie broken, This be mine first tale upon the scrolls of Webnovel. If thou seek worlds cracked with myth and power born not of birth, but of defiance— And souls who, though torn, dare rise again—then come. Walk with me through ruin and remembrance. Each act shall grow in terror and truth. What beginneth in silence shall end in flame. Speak thy thoughts. Scribe thy theories. Share thy witness. The crack hath opened. We fall not alone. — ChaosKNIGHT (C.K) Ashvale (“Oh, it feels cringe?” Aye—’tis why we keep a simpler tongue…) This is my first Webnovel. A slow-burn, emotional story built on identity, myth, and transformation. If you enjoy fractured worlds, mythic systems, and broken people who rise again—I hope you stay. Each act deepens. The fracture widens. And the fire only grows. Feedback, comments, and wild theories are always welcome. Let’s see how deep the cracks go. Thanks for reading. The fracture begins now. - I sometimes add Images in comment section(From me or From internet) ——

Chapter 1 - 0.Prologue : “The Hour of Remembering”

«"The Glimpse beyond the Veil - Foreseen. Or Forgotten"»

In the age of clean suits and corporate suns, beneath the gleam of TitanTech towers, the gods we built learned to count backward— and we sealed our ghosts inside.

They forged gods to end the old wars. Then they forged suits to bury those gods. But nothing that bleeds ever stays buried. And fate, once sealed, begins to fracture.

They were never meant to remember.

But memory leaks. And so do fractured dreams.

Because beneath the badge, beneath the protocol, beneath the suit — something Older was sealed. It is waking.

And it wants out.

---

The suits we wore became second skin.

The names became numbers. The truth became a glitch in the system.

> > > SYSTEM RECOVERY: FAILED {MEMORY BACKUP REINITIATING}

> > > PROPHECY NODE\_00X\_"ASH-WARDEN" — CORRUPTED

> > > STABILITY: DECAYING

The gods we built bled back into us.

Their whispers haunt the satellite grid.

Their corpses power our towers.

Their remnants slept beneath the suits.

But the system was never clean.

They ■■■■■.

"We sealed them beneath the suit. But identity leaks. Legacy leaks.

The void always remembers its children."

A boy kneels in a burning crater.

His hands tremble. His eyes glow like a dying star.

The city screams around him.

He doesn't.

A girl falls through a mirror of screaming shadows.

She clutches a rusted locket that hums in a language the world forgot.

She lands on glass.

It remembers her name, even when she forgets.

---

One forged from ash, with a name not his own.

One born of shadow, whose locket still dreams.

One runs from the scar he became.

One follows a song only she can hear.

Each marked by a past they never chose.

Each will fracture a future they were never meant to reach.

They are not Chosen.

They are not Cursed.

They are the glitches in the ■■■■■— the recurrence that wasn't meant to return with memory.

---

> A god's corpse is wired into a black tower.

> It whispers to the Iron Moon:

"The ■■■ is still bleeding."

A mask hangs in a forgotten lab.

One side cries. One side screams. Scrawled beneath it:

DO NOT FOLLOW THE ■■■(IRON SONG) SIGNAL.

\[Audrina's voice — distant, dream-warped]:

"I keep waking up in a world that forgets me.

But the locket... the locket still dreams."

\[Ryuu's voice — gutted, reactor-overloaded]:

"They said I escaped the lab.

They lied.

I never left."

Still confused?

That's how recursion works.

But this time, the glitch found you.

Author's Thoughts :

"Suit Up. The Glitch Has Begun."

Welcome to Underneath the Suit: The Fractured Vow — a story of fractured identity, weaponized memory, mythic power systems, and the shadows that rise when the world forgets its ghosts.

You've just read the prologue: not an origin, but a breach.

The veil is thin. The suits were never clean.

And the story doesn't start — it leaks.

- If you're confused — that's intentional.

The prologue is a fracture, a glitch in a sealed file. It's a dream. A warning. A weapon.

From here, we descend into Ryuu and Audrina's waking lives — jobs, grief, cities that hum with false peace. But the cracks are already there. You'll see them if you look sideways.

Quick Notes:

-No system. No Cheats

-The power system (Aura) is soul-borne,It hurts. It burns.

-The prophecy? It doesn't want to save you.

-Every name has weight. Some you haven't heard yet. Some you have and forgot.

Thank you for reading this far. If something resonated — a line, an image, a feeling — I hope you stay.

This isn't a story about saving the world.

It's about surviving what's left after.

See you in Chapter 1
